A research company desires to know the mean consumption of meat per week among males over age 43. A sample of 1384 males over age 43 was drawn and the mean meat consumption was 3 pounds. Assume that the population standard deviation is known to be 1.3 pounds. Construct the 99% confidence interval for the mean consumption of meat among males over age 43. Round your answers to one decimal place.
Answer:
The 99% confidence interval for the mean consumption of meat among males over age 43 is between 2.9 pounds and 3.1 pounds.
Step-by-step explanation:
We have that to find our [tex]\alpha[/tex] level, that is the subtraction of 1 by the confidence interval divided by 2. So:
[tex]\alpha = \frac{1 - 0.99}{2} = 0.005[/tex]
Now, we have to find z in the Ztable as such z has a pvalue of [tex]1 - \alpha[/tex].
That is z with a pvalue of [tex]1 - 0.005 = 0.995[/tex], so Z = 2.575.
Now, find the margin of error M as such
[tex]M = z\frac{\sigma}{\sqrt{n}}[/tex]
In which [tex]\sigma[/tex] is the standard deviation of the population and n is the size of the sample.
[tex]M = 2.575\frac{1.3}{\sqrt{1384}} = 0.1[/tex]
The lower end of the interval is the sample mean subtracted by M. So it is 3 - 0.1 = 2.9 pounds
The upper end of the interval is the sample mean added to M. So it is 3 + 0.01 = 3.1 pounds
The 99% confidence interval for the mean consumption of meat among males over age 43 is between 2.9 pounds and 3.1 pounds.

On his last 5 math tests, Gilbert earned: 94, 72, 83, 94, 90. What was his average score? ( Report your answer to the tenths place).
Answer:
Average of Gilbert in last 5 test = 86.6
Step-by-step explanation:
Given:
Score earned by Gilbert in last 5 test = 94, 72, 83, 94, 90
Find:
Average of Gilbert in last 5 test
Computation:
Average value = Sum of all events / Total number of events
Average of Gilbert in last 5 test = Sum of all last results / Number of results
Average of Gilbert in last 5 test = [94 + 72 + 83 + 94 + 90] / 5
Average of Gilbert in last 5 test = [433] / 5
Average of Gilbert in last 5 test = 86.6

The following data show the average retirement ages for a random sample of workers in the United States and a random sample of workers in Japan. Perform a hypothesis test using α = 0.05 to determine if the average retirement age in Japan is different from the United States. Calculate the test-statistics (round to 3 decimals - report the absolute value).
Answer:
[tex]t \approx 2.639[/tex]
Step-by-step explanation:
Given
[tex]\begin{array}{ccc}{} & {USA\ 1} & {Japan\ 2} & {\bar x} & {64.6} & {67.5} &{n} & {30} & {30} & {\sigma} & {4.0} & {4.5} \ \end{array}[/tex]
See attachment for data
Required
Determine the test statistic
The test statistic is calculated using:
[tex]t = \frac{\bar x_1 - \bar x_2}{\sqrt{\frac{\sigma_1^2}{n_1} + \frac{\sigma_2^2}{n_2}}}[/tex]
So, we have:
[tex]t = \frac{64.6 - 67.5}{\sqrt{\frac{4.0^2}{30} + \frac{4.5^2}{30}}}[/tex]
[tex]t = \frac{64.6 - 67.5}{\sqrt{\frac{16.00}{30} + \frac{20.25}{30}}}[/tex]
[tex]t = \frac{64.6 - 67.5}{\sqrt{\frac{16.00+20.25}{30}}}[/tex]
[tex]t = \frac{64.6 - 67.5}{\sqrt{\frac{36.25}{30}}}[/tex]
[tex]t = \frac{-2.9}{\sqrt{1.2083}}[/tex]
[tex]t = \frac{-2.9}{1.099}[/tex]
[tex]t \approx -2.639[/tex]
The absolute value is:
[tex]t \approx 2.639[/tex]

WILL GIVE BRAINLIEST IF SOLVED IN 10 MINS : Solve each equation with the quadratic :
Answer:
5. x = -1 or x = -3
6. b = -2 or b = 6
7. n = 5 or n = 4
Step-by-step explanation:
5. x² + 4x + 3 = 0
Factorize
x² + 3x + x + 3 = 0
x(x + 3) +1(x + 3) = 0
(x + 1)(x + 3) = 0
Set each of the factors equal to zero and solve for x
x + 1 = 0 or x + 3 = 0
x = -1 or x = -3
6. b² - 4b - 14 = -2
Put all terms on one side of the equation leaving zero on one side
b² - 4b - 14 + 2 = 0
b² - 4b - 12 = 0
Factorize
b² - 6b + 2b - 12 = 0
b(b - 6) +2(b - 6) = 0
(b + 2)(b - 6) = 0
Set each of the factors equal to zero and solve for b
b + 2 = 0 or b - 6 = 0
b = -2 or b = 6
7. n² = 9n - 20
Put all terms on one side of the equation leaving zero on one side
n² - 9n + 20 = 0
n² - 5n - 4n + 20 = 0
n(n - 5) -4(n - 5) = 0
(n - 5)(n - 4) = 0
Set each of the factors equal to zero and solve for b
n - 5 = 0 or n - 4 = 0
n = 5 or n = 4
You want to have $150,000 in your retirement account when you retire in 30 years. Your retirement account earns 7%
interest. How much do you need to deposit each month to meet your retirement goal?
Round your answer to the nearest cent.
Do NOT include the dollar sign.
Answer: 123.05
Use annuity formula
Answer:
Step-by-step explanation:
Since we're talking about making a deposit of a certain amount every month rather than just one big deposit, we are talking about an annuity. The formula for the value of an annuity is A(t)=d[(1+rn)nt−1](rn) where A(t) is the value of the annuity, d is the amount of each deposit, n is the number of deposits per year, t is the number of years, and r is the rate of interest. In this case we know we want the value of the annuity to be A(t)=$150,000, we want to make deposits every month, or 12 times a year, so n=12, we want to reach our desired value in 30 years, so t=30, and our account earns 7% interest, so r=0.07. We can plug in all of these values and solve for d to find the amount we need to deposit each month:
A(t)150,000150,000150,000d=d[(1+rn)nt−1](rn)=d[(1+0.0712)12⋅30−1]0.0712≈d[(1.00583)360−1]0.00583≈1,219.97d≈122.95
The amount you need to deposit each month is approximately $122.95.
John buys an item that costs $50.00 is marked 20% off. Sales tax for the item is 8%. What is the final price that John pays, including tax?
Answer:
$43.20
Step-by-step explanation:
20% of $50.00 is $10.00. $50 - $10 is $40. 8% of $40 is $3.20. Since this is tax, you must add it. $40+$3.20 = $43.20
Local versus absolute extrema. If you recall from single-variable calculus (calculus I), if a function has only one critical point, and that critical point is a local maximum (or say local minimum), then that critical point is the global/absolute maximum (or say global/absolute minnimum). This fails spectacularly in higher dimensions (and thereís a famous example of a mistake in a mathematical physics paper because this fact was not properly appreciated.) You will compute a simple example in this problem. Let f(x; y) = e 3x + y 3 3yex . (a) Find all critical points for this function; in so doing you will see there is only one. (b) Verify this critical point is a local minimum. (c) Show this is not the absolute minimum by Önding values of f(x; y) that are lower than the value at this critical point. We suggest looking at values f(0; y) for suitably chosen y
Answer:
Step-by-step explanation:
Given that:
a)
[tex]f(x,y) = e^{3x} + y^3 - 3ye^x \\ \\ \implies \dfrac{\partial f}{\partial x} = 0 = 3e^{3x} -3y e^x = 0 \\ \\ e^{2x}= y \\ \\ \\ \implies \dfrac{\partial f}{\partial y } = 0 = 3y^2 -3e^x = 0 \\ \\ y^2 = e^x[/tex]
[tex]\text{Now; to determine the critical point:}[/tex]- [tex]f_x = 0 ; \ \ \ \ \ f_y =0[/tex]
[tex]\implies e^{2x} = y^4 = y \\ \\ \implies y = 0 \& y =1 \\ \\ since y \ne 0 , \ \ y = 1, \ \ x= 0\\\text{Hence, the only possible critical point= }(0,1)[/tex]
b)
[tex]\delta = f_xx, s = f_{xy}, t = f_{yy} \\ \\ . \ \ \ \ \ \ \ \ D = rt-s^2 \\ \\ i) Suppose D >0 ,\ \ \ r> 0 \ \text{then f is minima} \\ \\ ii) Suppose \ D >0 ,\ \ \ r< 0 \ \text{then f is mixima} \\ \\ iii) \text{Suppose D} < 0 \text{, then f is a saddle point} \\ \\ iv) Suppose \ D = 0 \ \ No \ conclusion[/tex]
[tex]Thus \ at (0,1) \\ \\ \delta = f_{xx} = ge^{3x}\implies \delta (0,1) = 6 \\ \\ S = f_{xy} = -3e^x \\ \\ \implies S_{(0,1)} = -3 \\ \\ t = f_{yy} = 6y \\ \\[/tex]
[tex]\implies t_{0,1} = 6[/tex]
[tex]Now; D = rt - s^2 \\ \\ = (6)(6) -(-3)^2[/tex]
[tex]= 36 - 9 \\ \\ = 27 > 0 \\ \\ r>0[/tex]
[tex]\text{Hence, the critical point} \ (0,1) \ \text{appears to be the local minima}[/tex]
c)
[tex]\text{Suppose we chose x = 0 and y = -3.4} \\ \\ \text{Then, we have:} \\ \\ f(0,-3.4) = 1+ (-3.4)^3 + 3(3.4) \\ \\ = -28.104 < -1[/tex]
[tex]\text{However, if f (0,1) = 1 +1 -3 = -1 \\ \\ f(0,-3.4) = -28.104} < -1} \\ \\ \text{This explains that} -1 \text{is not an absolute minimum value of f(x,y)}[/tex]

Answer: (-2,9)
Step-by-step explanation: I did this not too long ago!
Solve equation [2] for the variable y
[2] y = 5x + 19
// Plug this in for variable y in equation [1]
[1] (5x+19) + 3x = 3
[1] 8x = -16
Solve equation [1] for the variable x
[1] 8x = - 16
[1] x = - 2
By now we know this much :
y = 5x+19
x = -2
Use the x value to solve for y
y = 5(-2)+19 = 9

Is the following relation a function? *
{(-3, 2), (1, 8), (-1, 5), (3, 11)}
Yes
No
Why or why not?
Answer:
No.
Step-by-step explanation:
Well at first glance it might seem so but there are two points particularly that can tell you that these points cannot be within a function.
The points (3,2) and (3,-2) will yield an undefined slope (a straight vertical line). There is no possibility that the other points can be in this line (as their y - values are different) and there is no possibilty that this is a function at all according to the vertical line test (the test is that if you draw a vertical line that there shouldn't be more than one point on it).
