A random sample of 100 felony trials showed a sample mean waiting time between arrest and trial = 173 days with a population standard deviation of waiting times = 28 days. Find a 99% confidence interval for the population mean waiting time. Stats question, I'm really struggling here. Please help me!

Answers

Answer 1

Answer: 165.78 < μ < 180.22

Step-by-step explanation: Confidence Interval of a mean is a method to estimate the true population mean, i.e., we can get an interval where the true mean exists.

A confidence interval is calculated as

x ± [tex]z\frac{\sigma}{\sqrt{n} }[/tex]

z is z-score for 99% confidence, which is: z = 2.58

Then, the estimate is

173 ± [tex]2.58\frac{28}{\sqrt{100} }[/tex]

173 ± 2.58*2.8

173 ± 7.224

lower limit: 173 - 7.224 = 165.78

upper limit: 173 + 7.224 = 180.22

The 99% confidence interval of the mean is between 165.78 and 180.22 and it means that the true mean of this population is between those numbers with 99% of confidence.

Given that x² -x -2 is a factor of x³ +3 x² +ax +b, calculate the values of a and b and hence find the remaining factor.

Answers

Answer:

[tex]a = -6, b = - 8[/tex]

Remaining factor = [tex]x+4[/tex]

Step-by-step explanation:

Given that:

Two polynomials:

[tex]x^{2} -x-2[/tex] and [tex]x^3 +3 x^2 +ax +b[/tex]

[tex]x^{2} -x-2[/tex] is a factor of [tex]x^3 +3 x^2 +ax +b[/tex].

To find:

The values of [tex]a[/tex] and [tex]b[/tex] from the cubic equation and the remaining factor.

Solution:

Let us first of all, factorize [tex]x^{2} -x-2[/tex].

[tex]x^{2} -2x+x-2=0\\\Rightarrow x(x-2)+1(x-2)=0\\\Rightarrow (x+1)(x-2)=0\\\Rightarrow x = -1, 2[/tex]

There are two factors of the given quadratic equation.

These two factors must also be factors of the cubic equation as well.

Putting [tex]x = 2[/tex]:

[tex]2^3 +3 \times 2^2 +a\times 2 +b =0\\\Rightarrow 2a+b=-20 ..... (1)[/tex]

Putting [tex]x = -1[/tex]:

[tex](-1)^3 +3 \times (-1)^2 +a\times (-1) +b =0\\\Rightarrow -a+b=-2 ..... (2)[/tex]

Subtracting (2) from (1):

[tex]3a = -18\\\Rightarrow a = -6[/tex]

From equation (1):

[tex]2\times (-6) + b=-20\\\Rightarrow b = -8[/tex]

Putting the values of [tex]a[/tex] and [tex]b[/tex] in the cubic equation, we get:

[tex]x^3 +3 x^2 -6x -8[/tex]

Dividing the cubic equation with quadratic, we get:

[tex]\dfrac{x^3 +3 x^2 -6x -8}{x^{2} -x-2} = x+4[/tex]

Answers

Complete question :

i put $100 in a savings account at v% yearly interest. How much money will i have in my account at the end of the year

Answer:

100 + v

Step-by-step explanation:

Given that:

Interest yearly = v%

Amount deposited = principal = $100

Amount earned at the end of the year:

A = P(1 + rt)

A = 100(1 + 0.01v)

A = 100 + v

Where A = final amount

Final amount at the end of the year = 100 + v

A jar contains 42 red marbles numbered 1 to 42 and 36 blue marbles numbered 1 to 36. A marble is drawn at random from the jar. Find the probability of the given event. Please enter reduced fractions. (a) The marble is red. P(red)= Correct (b) The marble is odd-numbered. P(odd)= Correct (c) The marble is red or odd-numbered. P(red or odd) = Incorrect (d) The marble is blue or even-numbered. P(blue or even) =

Answers

Answer: See explanation

Step-by-step explanation:

Number of red marbles = 42

Number of blue marbles = 36

Total number of marbles = 42 + 36 = 78

There are 21 odd numbers between 1 - 42.

There are 18 odd numbers between 1 - 36.

(a) Probability that the marble is red will be:

P(red)= 42 / 78 = 7 / 13

(b) Probability that the marble is odd-numbered will be:

= 39 / 78 = 1/2

(c) Probability that the marble is red or odd-numbered will be:

P(red or odd) = P(red) + p(odd) - P(odd and red)

= (42/78) + (39/78) - (21/78)

= 60/78

= 10/13

(d) Probability that the marble is blue or even-numbered.

= P(blue) + P(even) - P(blue and even)

= 36/78 + 39/78 - 18/78

= 57/78

= 19/26

Option A is not a solution.

Option C is a solution.

Hope this helps.

Answer:

C

Step-by-step explanation:

To determine which point is a solution, substitute the x- coordinate into the equation and if the value is equal to the y- coordinate then it is a solution

A (145, 291 )

y = 2(145) + 3 = 290 + 3 = 293 ≠ 291 ← not a solution

B (78, 163 )

y = 2(78) + 3 = 156 + 3 = 159 ≠ 163 ← not a solution

C (37, 77 )

y = 2(37) + 3 = 74 + 3 = 77 ← solution to the equation

a force of 12N acts for 5 s on a mass of 2 kg. What is the change in momentum of a mass of 10kg under the same condition​

Answers

Answer:

The change in momentum is: 60 N.s

Step-by-step explanation:

By Newton's second law:

F = ∆p / ∆t

Given that

∆t = 5sF = 12N

Using the formula to determine the change in momentum

F = ∆p / ∆t

∆p = F × ∆t

     = 12 × 5

      = 60 N.s

Therefore, the change in momentum is: 60 N.s
