consider the distribution of monthly social security (OASDI) payments. Assume a normal distribution with a standard deviation of $116. if one-fourth of payments are above $1214,87 what is the mean monthly payment?

Answers

Answer 1

Answer:

[tex]\mu = x - z(\sigma)[/tex]

[tex]\mu = 1214.87 - 0.67(116) \\\\\mu = 1214.87 - 77.72 \\\\\mu = \$1137.15[/tex]

Therefore, the mean monthly payment is $1137.15.

Step-by-step explanation:

What is Normal Distribution?

We are given a Normal Distribution, which is a continuous probability distribution and is symmetrical around the mean. The shape of this distribution is like a bell curve and most of the data is clustered around the mean. The area under this bell shaped curve represents the probability.  

We are asked to find the mean monthly social security (OASDI) payment.

Mean monthly payment = μ = ?

We are given that the standard deviation is $116

One-fourth of payments are above $1214.87

One-fourth means 25%

[tex]P(X > x )= P(Z > z ) = 0.25\\\\P(X < x )= P(Z < z) = 1 - 0.25\\\\P(X < x )= P(Z < z) = 0.75\\\\[/tex]

From the z-table, the z-score corresponding to 0.75 is found to be 0.67

[tex]z = 0.67[/tex]

The mean is found by

[tex]x = \mu + z(\sigma)[/tex]

[tex]\mu = x - z(\sigma)[/tex]

Where

x = $1214.87

z = 0.67

σ = $116

[tex]\mu = 1214.87 - 0.67(116) \\\\\mu = 1214.87 - 77.72 \\\\\mu = \$1137.15[/tex]

Therefore, the mean monthly payment is $1137.15.

If a gang of eight rob a bank, what percent of the loot belongs to three of the robbers? What percent belongs to them if two of the gang are killed? By what percent does each robber’s share increase? What percent belongs to three of them? What percent belongs to them if two of the gang are killed? Each robber's share increases by how much percent?

Answers

Answer:

(assuming all members of the gang get equal percentages)

For a gang of 8: 12.5% (100/8)

If 2 are killed: 16.67% (100/6), so percentage increases by roughly 4.2% (16.67-12.5)

Percent that belongs to 3: 12.5%*3=37.5%

Percent that belongs to 3 if 2 are killed: 16.67%*3=50.0%

Each robber's share still increases by 4.2% (50%-37.5%=12.5%, 12.5%/3=4.2%)

Answers

Answer:

Problem 1: We conclude that less than or equal to 50% of adult Americans without a high school diploma are worried about having enough saved for retirement.

Problem 2: We conclude that the volume of Google stock has changed.

Step-by-step explanation:

Problem 1:

We are given that in a recent survey conducted by Pew Research, it was found that 156 of 295 adult Americans without a high school diploma were worried about having enough saved for retirement.

Let p = proportion of adult Americans without a high school diploma who are worried about having enough saved for retirement

So, Null Hypothesis, [tex]H_0[/tex] : p [tex]\leq[/tex] 50%    {means that less than or equal to 50% of adult Americans without a high school diploma are worried about having enough saved for retirement}

Alternate Hypothesis, [tex]H_A[/tex] : p > 50%     {means that a majority of adult Americans without a high school diploma are worried about having enough saved for retirement}

This is a right-tailed test.

The test statistics that would be used here is One-sample z-test for proportions;

                       T.S.  =  [tex]\frac{\hat p-p}{\sqrt{\frac{p(1-p)}{n} } }[/tex]  ~ N(0,1)

where, [tex]\hat p[/tex] = sample proportion of adult Americans who were worried about having enough saved for retirement = [tex]\frac{156}{295}[/tex] = 0.53

           n = sample of adult Americans = 295

So, the test statistics =  [tex]\frac{0.53-0.50}{\sqrt{\frac{0.50(1-0.50)}{295} } }[/tex]

                                    =  1.03

The value of z-test statistics is 1.03.

Also, the P-value of the test statistics is given by;

              P-value = P(Z > 1.03) = 1 - P(Z [tex]\leq[/tex] 1.03)

                           = 1 - 0.8485 = 0.1515

Now, at a 0.05 level of significance, the z table gives a critical value of 1.645 for the right-tailed test.

Since the value of our test statistics is less than the critical value of z as 1.03 < 1.645, so we insufficient evidence to reject our null hypothesis as it will not fall in the rejection region.

Therefore, we conclude that less than or equal to 50% of adult Americans without a high school diploma are worried about having enough saved for retirement.

Problem 2:

We are given that a random sample of 35 trading days in 2014 resulted in a  sample mean of 3.28 million shares with a standard deviation of 1.68 million shares.

Let [tex]\mu[/tex] = mean daily volume in Google stock

So, Null Hypothesis, [tex]H_0[/tex] : [tex]\mu[/tex] = 5.44 million shares    {means that the volume of Google stock has not changed}

Alternate Hypothesis, [tex]H_A[/tex] : [tex]\mu[/tex] [tex]\neq[/tex] 5.44 million shares     {means that the volume of Google stock has changed}

This is a two-tailed test.

The test statistics that would be used here is One-sample t-test statistics because we don't know about the population standard deviation;

                       T.S.  =  [tex]\frac{\bar X-\mu}{\frac{s}{\sqrt{n} } }[/tex]  ~ [tex]t_n_-_1[/tex]

where, [tex]\bar X[/tex] = sample mean volume in Google stock = 3.28 million shares

            s = sample standard deviation = 1.68 million shares

           n = sample of trading days = 35

So, the test statistics =  [tex]\frac{3.28-5.44}{\frac{1.68}{\sqrt{35} } }[/tex]  ~ [tex]t_3_4[/tex]

                                    =  -7.606

The value of t-test statistics is -7.606.

Also, the P-value of the test statistics is given by;

              P-value = P([tex]t_3_4[/tex] < -7.606) = Less than 0.05%

Now, at a 0.05 level of significance, the t table gives a critical value of -2.032 and 2.032 at 34 degrees of freedom for the two-tailed test.

Since the value of our test statistics doesn't lie within the range of critical values of t, so we sufficient evidence to reject our null hypothesis as it will fall in the rejection region.

Therefore, we conclude that the volume of Google stock has changed.

[tex]E = \pm 5[/tex]

p - population proportion

[tex]\alpha = 5[/tex]%

Step-by-step explanation:

From the question we are told that  

   The  sample size is  [tex]n = 2000[/tex]

   The  proportion of the population for chocolate pie is  [tex]p_c = 0.11[/tex]

   The  margin of error is  [tex]E = \pm 5[/tex]%  

Now in the question we are asked to provide the meaning of

Now  [tex]\r p[/tex] is the sample proportion of the population that those  chocolate​ pie as  favorite pie of   which is given from the question as 0.11

Now

         [tex]\r q[/tex] is the sample  proportion of the population that choose other pies apart from chocolate pie as their favorite and it is evaluated as

      [tex]\r q = 1 - \r p[/tex]

      [tex]\r q = 1 - 0.11[/tex]

       [tex]\r q = 0.89[/tex]

       n is the sample size which is given as  n =  2000

       E is the margin of  error which given as  [tex]E = \pm 5[/tex]%

       p is the population proportion

Given that the confidence level is  95 %  then the level of significance is  mathematically evaluated as

        [tex]\alpha =(100 - 95)[/tex]%

        [tex]\alpha =[/tex]5%

   


An amount of $18,000 is borrowed for 13 years at 4% interest, compounded annually. If the loan is paid in full at the end of that period, how much must be
paid back?
Use the calculator provided and round your answer to the nearest dollar

Answers

Answer:

Total amount to be paid back = $29971

Step-by-step explanation:

Formula used to calculate the final amount of the loan to be paid,

Total amount to be paid = [tex]P(1+\frac{r}{n})^{nt}[/tex]

Where P = Principal amount of loan taken

r = rate of interest

n = Number of compounding in a year

t = duration of investment

By substituting the values in the formula,

Total amount to be paid after loan maturity = [tex]18000(1+\frac{0.04}{1})^{13\times 1}[/tex]

= [tex]18000(1.04)^{13}[/tex]

= 18000(1.66507)

= $29971.32

≈ $29971

Total amount to be paid after loan maturity will be $29971.

Two trains leave New York at the same time heading in opposite directions. Train A travels at 4/5 the speed of train one. After seven hours they are 693 miles apart. What was the speed of train A? Can you pls help me fast

Answers

Answer:  speed of train A = 44 mph

=============================================

Work Shown:

x = speed of train A

y = speed of train B

"train A travels 4/5 the speed of train B" (I'm assuming "train one" is supposed to read "train B"). So this means x = (4/5)y

distance = rate*time

d = x*7

d = (4/5)y*7 = (28/5)y represents the distance train A travels

d = y*7 = 7y represents the distance train B travels

summing those distances will give us 693

(28/5)y + 7y = 693

5*(  (28/5)y + 7y ) = 5*693

28y + 35y = 3465

63y = 3465

y = 3465/63

y = 55

Train B's speed is 55 mph

4/5 of that is (4/5)y = (4/5)*55 = 4*11 = 44 mph

Train A's speed is 44 mph


find the product of .42 and 7/20

Answers

To make it easier, you can convert 7/20 to a decimal, and as a decimal it is 0.35. 0.42*0.35=0.147, so .42*7/20=0.147.

Answer:

0.147

Step-by-step explanation:

0.42 * 7/20

Well, 0.42 = 42/100. Now we have both numbers as fractions.

We can simplify 42/100 to 21/50

Therefore we have 7/20 * 21/50

To multiply fractions multiply the numerators together and multiply the denominators together.

This gives: 147 / 1000

Which is equal to 0.147

Therefore 0.42 * 7/20 = 0.147

The manufacturer wants to be certain that the mean battery life exceeds 25 hours in accelerated lifetime testing.
Construct a 90%, two sided confidence interval on mean life in the accelerated test.

Answers

Answer:

The confidence interval is  [tex]25.16 < \mu < 26.85[/tex]

Step-by-step explanation:

From  the question we are given a data set

     25.5, 26.1, 26.8, 23.2, 24.2, 28.4, 25.0, 27.8, 27.3, and 25.7.

The mean of the this sample data is  

       [tex]\= x = \frac{\sum x_i}{n}[/tex]

where is the sample size with values  n =  10

         [tex]\= x = \frac{25.5+ 26.1+ 26.8+23.2+ 24.2+ 28.4+ 25.0+ 27.8+ 27.3+ 25.7}{10}[/tex]

          [tex]\= x = 26[/tex]

The standard deviation is evaluated as

             [tex]\sigma = \sqrt{\frac{\sum (x-\= x)}{n} }[/tex]

substituting values

     [tex]= \sqrt{\frac{ ( 25.5-26)^2, (26.1-26)^2, (26.8-26)^2, (23.2-26)^2}{10} }[/tex]

                  [tex]\cdot \ \cdot \ \cdot \sqrt{\frac{ ( 24.2-26)^2, (28.4-26)^2+( 25.0-26)^2+ (27.8-26)^2+( 27.3-26)^2+( 25.7-26)^2}{10} }[/tex]

     [tex]\sigma = 1.625[/tex]

The  confidence level is given as 90% hence the level of significance is calculated as

    [tex]\alpha = 100 -90[/tex]

    [tex]\alpha =10[/tex]%

   [tex]\alpha = 0.10[/tex]

Now the critical values of [tex]\frac{\alpha }{2}[/tex] is obtained from the normal distribution table as

      [tex]Z_{\frac{\alpha }{2} } = 1.645[/tex]

The reason  we are obtaining  the critical values of [tex]\frac{\alpha }{2}[/tex] instead of  [tex]\alpha[/tex] is because  we are considering two tails of the area under the normal curve

  The margin of error is evaluated as

            [tex]MOE = Z_{\frac{\alpha }{2} } * \frac{\sigma }{\sqrt{n} }[/tex]

substituting values

           [tex]MOE = 1.645 * \frac{1.625 }{\sqrt{10} }[/tex]

           [tex]MOE = 0.845[/tex]

The  90%, two sided confidence interval is mathematically evaluated as

           [tex]\= x - MOE < \mu < \= x + MOE[/tex]

           [tex]26 - 0.845 < \mu < 26 + 0.845[/tex]

Answers

Answer:

The probability that the cycle time exceeds 65 minutes if it is known that the cycle time exceeds 55 minutes, should be 1 / 3.

Step-by-step explanation:

It is known that the cycle times for a truck hauling concrete is uniformly distributed over a time interval of ( 50, 70 ). If c = cycle time, according to the question the probability that the cycle exceeds 65 minutes, respectively exceed 55 minutes should be the following - ' [tex]Probability( c > 65 | c > 55 )[/tex]. '

_____

[tex]f( c ) = \left \{ {{1 / 20,} \atop {0}} \right. \\50< c<70 - ( elsewhere )[/tex]

We know that the formula for Probability( A | B ) is P( A ∩ B ) / P( B ),

[tex]P( c > 65 | c > 55 ) =[/tex] [tex]P( c > 55[/tex]  ∩ [tex]c > 65 )[/tex] /  [tex]P( c > 55 )[/tex],

And now we come to the formula [tex]P( a < c < b )[/tex] = [tex]\int\limits^{70}_{65} {f(x)} \, dc[/tex]. Substitute known values to derive two solutions, forming a fraction that represents the probability we desire.

[tex]P( 65<c<70) = \int\limits^{70}_{65} {f(y)} \, dy\\ = \int\limits^{70}_{65} {(1/20)} \, dy\\ \\= 0.25[/tex]

-------------------------------------

[tex]P( 55<c<70) = \int\limits^{70}_{55} {f(y)} \, dy\\ = \int\limits^{70}_{65} {(1/20)} \, dy\\ \\= 0.75[/tex]

Take 0.25 over 0.75, 0.25 / 0.75, simplified to the fraction 1 / 3, which is our solution.

Write a short statement that expresses a possible function between the given variables.(price of a DVD player, demand for DVD player)

Answers

Answer:

When the price of DVD player increases, the demand will decrease.

Step-by-step explanation:

The price and demand function have an inverse relationship. When the price of good increases its demand will decrease. This is law of demand. If the price of goods increase to a certain level its demand will start decreasing. The people will start buying lesser good and will consume less. The propensity to consume will decline and less economic goods will be consumed. When the price of DVD player is increased then the demand will decline for DVD players and people will drop the decision to buy the DVD player.

The first term is -8

80th term is 150

Step-by-step explanation:

70 to 72 is adding 2

72 to 74 is adding 2

term to term rule is +2

The equation for a sequence like this is

xn = a + d(n−1)

where n is the term number  a is the first term and d is the term to term rule

Using the 40th term is 70

70 = a + 2( 40-1)

70 = a + 2( 39)

70 = a + 78

Subtract 78 from each side

-8 = a

The first term is -8

80th term

xn = a + d(n−1)

x80 = -8 +2 (80-1)

     = -8+2(79)

24 feet less than the length. What are the dimensions of the field?

Answers

Answer:

The length is 44 feetThe width is 20 feet

Step-by-step explanation:

Perimeter of a rectangle = 2l + 2w

where

l is the length

w is the width

Perimeter = 128 feet

The width is 24 feet less than the length is written as

w = l - 24

128 = 2l + 2( l - 24)

128 = 2l + 2l - 48

Group like terms

4l = 176

Divide both sides by 4

l = 44

The length is 44 feet

Substitute l = 44 into w = l - 24

w = 44 - 24

w = 20

The width is 20 feet

Hope this helps you

Examine the following solution to a conversion problem. Do you see a mistake? If so, identify the location of the first mistake and explain why it is incorrect.


Original Problem: Convert 3.25 kg to mg

(1) 3.25 kg
(2) 1 kg = 1000 g
(3) 1000 mg = 1g
= (4) 3.25 mg


A) The conversion is not possible.

B) The first problem occurs in column (1). The problem should begin with mg.

C) The first problem occurs in column (2). 1 kg is not equal to 1000 g, so that should not be used as the conversion factor.

D) The first problem occurs in column (2). The conversion factor is upside down (grams should be on top, and kg should be on bottom).

E) The first problem occurs in column (4). The multiplication and division was performed incorrectly.

F) No mistakes.


Thanks a bunch!

Answer:

[tex]\boxed{\sf Option \ E}[/tex]

Step-by-step explanation:

(1) 3.25 kg

(2) 1 kg = 1000 g

(3) 1000 mg = 1g

= (4) 3.25 mg

The first problem occurred in column (4) where we actually had to multiply it by 1000 but we divided it by 1000 and so our conversion was incorrect.

The correct form of it is:

1) 3.25 kg

2) 1 kg = 1000 g ; 3.25 kg = 3250 g

3) 1 g = 1000 mg ; 3250 * 1000 = 3,250,000 mg

4) Answer = 3,250,000 mg

Answer:

[tex]\boxed{\sf Option \ E}[/tex]

Step-by-step explanation:

1 kg = 1000 g

1000 mg = 1g

3.25 kilograms is to be multiplied by 1000 to get the value in grams. Then the result should be multiplied again by 1000 to get the value in milligrams.

3.25 kg ⇒ 3250 g ⇒ 3250000 mg

The first problem occurs in column (4). The multiplication and division was performed incorrectly.

An Article a Florida newspaper reported on the topics that teenagers most want to discuss with their parents. The findings, the results of a poll, showed that 46% would like more discussion about the family’s financial situation, 37% would like to talk about school, and 30%would like to talk about religion. These and other sampling were based on 522 teenagers. Estimate the proportion of all teenagers who want more family discussions about school. Use a 90% confidence level. Express the answer in the form P hat+- E

Answers

Answer:

The estimate is  [tex]P__{hat}} \pm E = 0.37 \pm 0.0348[/tex]

Step-by-step explanation:

From the question we are told that  

    The sample size is  n =  522

    The sample proportion of students  would like to talk about school is  [tex]\r p__{hat}} = 0.37[/tex]

  Given that the confidence level is  90 % then the level of significance can be mathematically evaluated as

                  [tex]\alpha = 100 - 90[/tex]

                  [tex]\alpha = 10\%[/tex]

                  [tex]\alpha = 0.10[/tex]

Next we obtain the critical value of  [tex]\frac{\alpha }{2}[/tex] from the normal distribution table, the value is  

               [tex]Z_{\frac{\alpha }{2} } =Z_{\frac{0.10}{2} } = 1.645[/tex]

Generally the margin of error can be mathematically represented as

               [tex]E = Z_{\frac{\alpha }{2} } * \sqrt{\frac{\r P_{hat}(1- \r P_{hat} )}{n } }[/tex]

=>            [tex]E = 1.645 * \sqrt{\frac{0.37 (1- 0.37 )}{522 } }[/tex]

=>             [tex]E = 0.0348[/tex]

Generally the estimate the proportion of all teenagers who want more family discussions about school at 90% confidence level is  

                       [tex]P__{hat}} \pm E[/tex]

substituting values

                     [tex]0.37 \pm 0.0348[/tex]

Find the probability of each event. A class has five boys and nine girls. If the teacher randomly picks six students, what is the probability that he will pick exactly four girls?

Answers

Answer: [tex]\dfrac{60}{143}[/tex]

Step-by-step explanation:

Given,  A class has five boys and nine girls.

Total students = 5+9=14

Number of ways to choose 6 students out of 14= [tex]^{14}C_6[/tex]  [Using combinations]

Number of ways to choose 4 girls out of 6 (4 girls + 2 boys = 6 ) = [tex]^{9}C_4\times\ ^{5}C_2[/tex]

If the teacher randomly picks six students, then the probability that he will pick exactly four girls:-

[tex]\dfrac{^{9}C_4\times \ ^{5}C_2}{^{14}C_6}[/tex]

[tex]=\dfrac{\dfrac{9!}{4!5!}\times\dfrac{5!}{2!3!}}{\dfrac{14!}{6!8!}}\\\\=\dfrac{1260}{3003}\\\\=\dfrac{60}{143}[/tex]

hence, the required probability = [tex]\dfrac{60}{143}[/tex] .

Total length of a pole is 21.3 m. If 0.2m of the length of the pole is inside the ground. Find how much of its length is outside the ground

Answers

Answer:

21.1 m

Step by step explanation

Total length of pole = 21.3 m

Length of pole inside the ground = 0.2 m

Let length of pole outside the ground be X,

So, according to the Question,

[tex]x + 0.2 = 21.3[/tex]

Move constant to R.H.S and change its sign

[tex]x = 21.3 - 0.2[/tex]

Calculate the difference

Answers

Answer:  B) 10 three-point questions and 14 five-point questions

Step-by-step explanation:

x represents three-point questions

y represents five-point questions

3x + 5y = 100  →  1(3x + 5y = 100)  =  3x + 5y = 100

 x  +  y  = 24   → -3(x  +  y  = 24)   = -3x  -3y  = -72

                                                                  2y = 28

                                                                    y = 14  (five-point questions)

x +  y = 24

x + 14 = 24

     x = 10  (three-point questions)

Draw a picture of the standard normal curve and shade the area that corresponds to the requested probabilities. Then use the standard normal table to find the following probabilities. Enter the probabilities as decimals. Enter the final answer only. 1.P(z>1.38)= 2.P(1.233 −2.43)= 7.P(z>−2.43)=

Answers

Answer:

a)P [ z > 1,38 ] = 0,08379

b) P [ 1,233 < z < 2,43 ]  = 0,1012

c)  P [ z > -2,43 ]  = 0,99245

Step-by-step explanation:

a) P [ z > 1,38 ] = 1 -  P [ z < 1,38 ]

From z-table  P [ z < 1,38 ] = 0,91621

P [ z > 1,38 ] = 1 - 0,91621

P [ z > 1,38 ] = 0,08379

b)  P [ 1,233 - 2,43 ]  must be  P [ 1,233 < z < 2,43 ]

P [ 1,233 < z < 2,43 ]  = P [ z < 2,43 ] - P [ z > 1,233 ]

P [ z < 2,43 ]  = 0,99245

P [ z > 1,233 ] = 0,89125    ( approximated value  without interpolation)

Then

P [ 1,233 < z < 2,43 ]  = 0,99245 - 0,89125

P [ 1,233 < z < 2,43 ]  = 0,1012

c) P [ z > -2,43 ]

Fom z-table

P [ z > -2,43 ] = 1 - P [ z < -2,43 ]

P [ z > -2,43 ] = 1 - 0,00755

P [ z > -2,43 ]  = 0,99245
