Let X1,X2,...,X32 be a random sample from an exponential distribution with a mean of 4. Find an approximate probability that the sample mean is less than 5 (round off to third decimal place).

Answers

Answer 1

The probability that the sample mean is less than 5, is 0.92135.

Let X1,X2,...,X32 be a random sample from an exponential distribution with a mean of 4.

We have to find an approximate probability that the sample mean is less than 5.

Let X = [tex]\frac{\Sigma_{i=1}^{n}x_{i}}{n}[/tex]

X = [tex]\frac{\Sigma_{i=1}^{32} x_{i}}{32}[/tex]

Then required probability is P(X<5).

Now we have to find the distribution of X where [tex]x_{i}[/tex]……. x_{32}.

Follow exponential with mean 4.

[tex]x_{i}[/tex]→exponent(λ=1/mean)

[tex]x_{i}[/tex]→exponent(λ=1/4)

[tex]x_{i}[/tex]→exponent(λ=0.25)

Now we have result:

If [tex]x_{1}[/tex] ………… x_{n} are exponential with α.

Then [tex]\Sigma{x_{i}}[/tex] has Gamma Distribution with (α=0.25, n=32)

Now we have result

X→G(α, λ) then c X→G(α/c, λ)

Here, we have

[tex]\frac{\Sigma x_{i}}{n}[/tex]→Gamma(α=0.25, n=32)

[tex]\frac{\Sigma x_{i}}{n}[/tex]→Gamma(α/(1/n), n)

[tex]\frac{\Sigma x_{i}}{n}[/tex]→Gamma(nα, n)

X→Gamma(32*0.25, 32)

X has Gamma distribution with α=8, λ=32.

Required probability is;

P(X<5) = [tex]\int_{0}^{5}f(x) dx[/tex]

P(X<5) =[tex]\int_{0}^{5}\frac{\alpha }{\sqrt{\lambda}}e^{-\alpha x}x^{\lambda-1} dx[/tex]

Now to approximate this probability using normal as

X-mean(X)/SD(X)  = N(0,1)

X→Gamma(α=8, λ=32)

E(X) = λ/α                                            Var(X)= λ/α^2

E(X) = 32/8                                          Var(X)= 32/(8)^2

E(X) = 4                                               Var(X)= 0.5

Now P(X<5)=P[{(X-E(X))/√Var(X)}<{ (5-4)/√0.5}]

P(X<5)=P[{z< 1/√0.5}]

P(X<5) = P(z<1.4142

From the normal probability table

P(X<5) = 0.92135

Hence, the probability that the sample mean is less than 5, is 0.92135.

A bug starts at a vertex of an equilateral triangle. On each move, it randomly selects one of the two vertices where it is not currently located, and crawls along a side of the triangle to that vertex. Given that the probability that the bug moves to its starting vertex on its tenth move is m/n, where m and n are relatively prime positive integers, find m + n.

Answers

If the probability that the bug moves to its starting vertex on its tenth move is m/n , then the value of m+n is 683 .

In the question ,

it is given that ,

the bug starts from a vertex of an equilateral triangle , and

in each move , it randomly selects one of  two vertices where it is not currently located .

Let the probability that the bug is at its starting vertex after n moves is Pₙ .

If the bug is on its starting vertex after n moves, then it must be not on its starting vertex after n-1 moves .

At this point it will has (1/2) chance of reaching starting vertex in the next move.

Thus Pₙ =  (1/2)(1 - Pₙ₋₁) . P₀ =1 ,

So , the probabilities in each move can be written as

P₁ = 0 ,  P₂ = 1/2, P₃ = 1/4 , P₄ = 3/8 , P₅ = 5/16, P₆ = 11/32 , P₇ = 21/64 , P₈ = 43/128, P₉ = 85/256, P₁₀ = 171/512 ,

So , the tenth move P₁₀ is given as 171/512 , which is m/n .

So, m + n is = 171 + 512 = 683 .

Therefore , the value of m+n is = 683 .

a machine is used to fill bags with a popular brand of trail mix. the machine is calibrated so the distribution of the weights of the bags of trail mix is normal, with mean 240 grams and standard deviation 3 grams. of the following, which is the least weight of a bag in the top 5 percent of the distribution? responses

Answers

The top five percent of the distribution's lowest weight as calculated from the given data  for a bag is 246.

Average population = 240

Standard deviation for the population; 3

Z-score can be calculated as ,

z = (x' - μ)/σ

Now, in order to determine which of the top 5 values in the distribution has the least weight, we will use the significance threshold of 1 - 0.05/2 = 0.025.

Z-score is 1.96 at significance level 0.025.

Thus;

1.96 = (x' - 240)/3

3 × 1.96 = x' - 240

x' = 240 + 5.88

x' = 245.88

Getting close to a whole number results ,

f(x) - g(x) =

5x³-2 - (x+1) =  ==> plug in known values

5x³-2 - x - 1 =   ==> simplify

5x³ - x - 2 - 1 = 5x³ - x - 3

No, we do not have enough information to find out the percentage of Americans who either do not follow football or do not follow basketball. We would need to know the percentage of Americans who do follow both sports.

In mathematics, what is a percent?

When the denominator is 100, percentages are really just fractions. We place the percent symbol (%) beside a number to indicate that it is a percentage. For instance, if you answered 75 out of 100 questions correctly on a test, you would have received a 75%.

What does a decimal percentage mean?

The percent sign (%), which denotes a division by 100, is used. Therefore, 25% translates to 25/100, or 1/4. Dividing by 100 will change a percentage to a decimal. Therefore, 25% is equal to 25/100, or 0.25. A decimal can be multiplied by 100 to become a percentage (just move the decimal point 2 places to the right)

What are radioactive substances?

Atoms in radioactive materials naturally decay. They are capable of emitting gamma radiation, beta radiation, and alpha radiation. They cannot be turned off, so controlling them is more challenging than controlling X-ray sources.

What is the probability of a coin landing on heads 4 times in a row?; What is the probability of flipping a coin and it landing heads?; What is the probability that exactly four students toss heads at least 4 times each?; What is the probability of flipping a coin and getting heads both times?

Answers

The probability of a coin landing on heads 4 times in a row is 1/16 or, 6.25%, the probability of flipping a coin and it landing heads is 1/2 or, 50%, the probability that exactly four students toss heads at least 4 times each is 1/16 or, 6.25%, and the probability of getting heads both times the coin is flipped is 0.25.

There are different situations for us stated as -

(a) What is the probability of a coin landing on heads 4 times in a row?

(b) What is the probability of flipping a coin and it landing heads?

(c) What is the probability that exactly four students toss heads at least 4 times each?

(d)What is the probability of flipping a coin and getting heads both times?

We have to find out the probability of the given situations happening.

(a) It is known to us that a coin is flipped.

We have to determine the probability of this coin landing on heads 4 times in a row.

In order to get 4 heads in a row, the coin should be flipped 4 times.

For n (say) number of heads, the value of n = 0, 1, 2, 3, 4

Total number of possible outcomes = 16

It can be concluded that there is only one possible outcome that will result in the coin landing on 4 heads where each flip ends up as a head.

So, the probability = 1/16

Thus, the probability of a coin landing on heads 4 times in a row is 1/16 or, 6.25%.

(b) It is known to us that a coin is flipped.

We have to find out the probability of this flipped coin landing on heads.

When a coin is flipped in the air, there is always 50% chance of the coin landing on heads and a 50% chance of the coin landing on tails.

So, the probability = 1/2

Thus, the probability of flipping a coin and it landing heads is 1/2 or, 50%.

(c) It is known to us that exactly four students toss coins.

We have to determine the probability that exactly four students toss heads at least 4 times each.

As mentioned in the previous part of the question, there is always 50% chance of the coin landing on heads.

So, the probability of getting heads when the coin is flipped first = 1/2

=> the probability of getting two heads in a row = 1/2 * 1/2 = 1/4

=> the probability of getting three heads in a row = 1/2 * 1/4 = 1/8

=> the probability of getting four heads in a row = 1/2 * 1/8 = 1/16

Thus, the probability that exactly four students toss heads at least 4 times each is 1/16 or, 6.25%.

(d) It is known to us that a coin is flipped.

We have to find out the probability of getting heads both times.

Since, there is always 50% chance of the coin landing on heads. So, the probability of getting heads both times = 0.5 * 0.5 = 0.25

Thus, the probability of getting heads both times the coin is flipped is 0.25.

Therefore, the probability of a coin landing on heads 4 times in a row is 1/16 or, 6.25%, the probability of flipping a coin and it landing heads is 1/2 or, 50%, the probability that exactly four students toss heads at least 4 times each is 1/16 or, 6.25%, and the probability of getting heads both times the coin is flipped is 0.25.

What is volume of the rectangular prism?; What is the formula to rectangular prism?; How do you find the length of a rectangular prism?; What is the surface area of a box with a length of 6 ft a width of 3 ft and a height of 2ยฝ ft?

Answers

The formula of the volume of the rectangular prism is,

V = l * w * h

The formula of the surface area of the rectangular prism is,

A = 2(lw + wh + lh)

the surface area of a box is 72 sq.ft.

For a rectangular prism with length(l), width(w) and height(h),

The formula of the volume of the rectangular prism is,

V = l * w * h

The formula of the surface area of the rectangular prism is,

A = 2(lw + wh + lh)

For a rectangular box with a length of 6 ft a width of 3 ft and a height of 2 ft,

here, l = 6 ft, w = 3 ft and h = 2 ft

using the formula for the surface area of a rectangular prism, the surface area of box would be,

A = 2(lw + wh + lh)

A = 2(6 * 3 + 3 * 2 + 6 * 2)

A = 2(18 + 6 + 12)

A = 2(36)

A = 72 sq.ft.

Therefore, the surface area of a box is 72 sq.ft.

Samuel has a watch that is faster than his alarm clock at home by 20 seconds in an hour. The alarm clock is, in turn, slower than the actual time by 30 seconds every hour. By how many seconds does his watch deviate from the actual time in a day?

Answers

Answer:

Samuel's watch is slower than the actual time 10 seconds.

Step-by-step explanation:

30 - 20 = 10 (seconds)

So Samuel's watch is slower than the actual time 10 seconds.

PLEASE GIVE ME BRAINLIEST IF THIS IS THE CORRECT ANSWER! THANKS!

Answer: 240 seconds

Step-by-step explanation:

So, here Samuel's watch gains 20 seconds every hour with respect to the alarm clock.

Also, alarm clock lags by 30 seconds every hour with respect to the actual time.

Therefore, Samuel's watch lags by (30-20) seconds every hour with respect to the actual time.

30-20=10 seconds

In 1 hour Samuel watch deviate by 10 seconds, then in 24 hours, it deviates by 24*10 seconds= 240 seconds..

An odd degree polynomial with a negative leading coefficient would have endpoint behavior of "as x approaches -∞, y approaches ∞ and as x approaches ∞, y approaches -∞.

What is a polynomial?

A polynomial is a mathematical statement made up of coefficients and indeterminates that uses only the operations addition, subtraction, multiplication, and powers of positive integers of the variables. x² - 4x + 7 is an illustration of a polynomial with a single indeterminate x.

The leading coefficient and the degree of the monomial n have an impact on the final behavior.

The function behaves the same at both "ends" when n is even. They both either approach + ∞ or they both approach depending on the sign of the leading coefficient.

The behaviour of the function at both "endpoints" is the reverse when n is odd. Which one is +∞and which one is depends on the sign of the leading coefficient.
