. In a study of air-bag effectiveness it was found that in 821 crashes of midsize cars equipped with air bags, 46 of the crashes resulted in hospitalization of the drivers (based on data from the highway Loss Data Institute). Using a 0.01 significance level, you need to test the claim that the air-bag hospitalization rate is lower than the 7.8% rate for crashes of mid-size cars equipped with automatic safety belts. What conclusion should you make

Answers

Answer 1

Answer:

P(X ≤ 46 | X~B(821, 0.078)) = 0.00885745584

0.00885... < 0.01

The test statistic of 46 is significant

There is sufficient evidence to reject H₀ and accept H₁

Air bags are more effective as protection than safety belts

Step-by-step explanation:

821 crashes

46 hospitalisations where car has air bags

7.8% or 0.078 probability of hospitalisations in cars with automatic safety belts

α = 0.01 or 1% ← level of significance

One-tailed test

We are testing whether hospitalisations in cars with air bags are less likely than in a car with automatic safety belts;

The likelihood of hospitalisation in a car with automatic safety belts, we are told, is 7.8% or 0.078;

So we are testing if hospitalisations in cars with air bags is less than 0.078;

So, firstly:

Let X be the continuous random variable, the number of hospitalisations from a car crash with equipped air bags

X~B(821, 0.078)

Null hypothesis (H₀): p = 0.078

Alternative hypothesis (H₁): p < 0.078

According to the information, we reject H₀ if:

P(X ≤ 46 | X~B(821, 0.078)) < 0.01

To find P(X ≤ 46) or equally P(X < 47), it could be quite long-winded to do manually for this particular scenario;

If you are interested, the manual process involves using the formula for every value of x up to and including 46, i.e. x = 0, x = 1, x = 2, etc. until x = 46, the formula is:

[tex]P(X = r) = nCr * p^{r} * (1 - p)^{n - r}[/tex]

You can find binomial distribution calculators online, where you input n (i.e. the number of trials or 821 in this case), probability (i.e. 0.078) and the test statistic (i.e. 46), it does it all for you, which gives:

P(X ≤ 46 | X~B(821, 0.078)) = 0.00885745584

Now, we need to consider if the condition for rejecting H₀ is met and recognise that:

0.00885... < 0.01

There is sufficient evidence to reject H₀ and accept H₁.

To explain what this means:

The test statistic of 46 is significant according to the 1% significance level, meaning the likelihood that only 46 hospitalisations are seen in car crashes with air bags in the car as compared to the expected number in car crashes with automatic safety belts is very unlikely, less than 1%, to be simply down to chance;

In other words, there is 99%+ probability that the lower number of hospitalisations in car crashes with air bags is due to some reason, such as air bags being more effective as a protective implement than the safety belts in car crashes.

Answers

Answer: $8700.

Step-by-step explanation:

The equation we can use is p  x  r^years.

p is the original value ($12000).

r is our multiplier, it goes down by 10% so our multiplier is 1-0.1 giving us 0.9.

IT is 2001 to 2004 so 3 years so we do r to the power of 3.

So we use 12000 x 0.9^3.

This is equal to 8748, to the nearest 100 dollars its $8700.

Answers

Answer:

between 1hr 30 and 1hr 45

Step-by-step explanation:

10*2=20                                 15

20*2=40                                 30

40*2=80                                 45

80*2=160                                 60

160*2=320                                 1hr 15

320*2=640                                 1hr 30

In 90 minutes the population to grow to 700 organisms.

Given that,

A strand of bacteria has a doubling time of 15 minutes.

If the population starts with 10 organisms.

We have to determine,

How long would it take for the population to grow to 700 organisms?

According to the question,

A strand of bacteria has a doubling time of 15 minutes.

If the population starts with 10 organisms.

In 15 minutes strand of bacteria has a doubling time the population starts with 10 organisms.

[tex]\rm = 10 \times 2 = 20 \ bacteria[/tex]

In 15 minutes 20 bacteria for the population to grow.

In 30 minutes strand of bacteria has a doubling time the population starts with 20 organisms.

[tex]\rm = 20 \times 2 = 40 \ bacteria[/tex]

In 30 minutes 40 bacteria for the population to grow.

In 45 minutes strand of bacteria has a doubling time the population starts with 40 organisms.

[tex]\rm = 40 \times 2 = 80 \ bacteria[/tex]

In 45 minutes 80 bacteria for the population to grow.

In 60 minutes strand of bacteria has a doubling time the population starts with 80 organisms.

[tex]\rm = 80 \times 2 = 160 \ bacteria[/tex]

In 60 minutes 160 bacteria for the population to grow.

In 75 minutes strand of bacteria has a doubling time the population starts with 160 organisms.

[tex]\rm = 160 \times 2 = 320 \ bacteria[/tex]

In 75 minutes 320 bacteria for the population to grow.

In 90 minutes strand of bacteria has a doubling time the population starts with 320 organisms.

[tex]\rm = 320 \times 2 = 640 \ bacteria[/tex]

In 90 minutes 640 bacteria for the population to grow.

In 120 minutes strand of bacteria has a doubling time the population starts with 640 organisms.

[tex]\rm = 640 \times 2 = 1280 \ bacteria[/tex]

In 120 minutes 1280 bacteria for the population to grow.

Hence, In 90 minutes the population to grow to 700 organisms.

The length of a rectangle is times the width. If the perimeter is 32 inches, what is the width of the rectangle

Answers

Let width be “w", length = “l" and perimeter = p

Then l = 3w-4

Perimeter = 2(w+l)

p = 2(w+3w-4) = 2w+6w-8 = 8w-8

Perimeter is 32…

8w-8 = 32

8w = 32+8

8w = 40

w = 5

l = (3×5)-4 = 11

If the contractor has $3.8 million of capital on hand, how many houses of each type should she build for maximum profit?

Answers

Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:

A housing contractor has subdivided a farm into 100 building lots. She has designed two types of homes for these lots: colonial and ranch style. A colonial requires $30,000 of capital and produces a profit of $2000 when sold. A ranch-style house requires $40,000 of capital and provides an $8000 profit. If the contractor has $3.2 million of capital on hand, how many houses of each type should she build for maximum profit?

? colonials

? ranches

For maximum profit, the contractor should build 80 colonial houses and 20 ranch-style houses. The maximum profit achievable is $740,000.

Let x be the number of colonial houses built.

Let y be the number of ranch-style houses built.

Now, we can set up the objective function, which represents the total profit:

Total Profit (P) = 3000x + 7000y

The total cost of the houses built cannot exceed the available capital, which is $3.8 million (or $3,800,000):

30,000x + 40,000y ≤ 3,800,000

The number of building lots used cannot exceed the total number of lots available, which is 100:

x + y ≤ 100

Also, we need to consider that the number of houses (x and y) must be non-negative:

x ≥ 0

y ≥ 0

Now, we have the linear programming model with the objective function and constraints.

We need to find the values of x and y that maximize the total profit (P).

Graph the feasible region determined by the constraints (x + y ≤ 100, x ≥ 0, y ≥ 0, 30,000x + 40,000y ≤ 3,800,000), and then evaluate the objective function (P = 3000x + 7000y) at each corner point of the feasible region to find the maximum profit.

The feasible region is a polygon with vertices at the following points:

(0, 0)

(0, 95) (Intersection of x = 0 and y = 95)

(80, 20) (Intersection of x = 80 and y = 20)

(100, 0) (Intersection of x = 100 and y = 0)

Now, evaluate the objective function (P) at each corner point:

(0, 0): P = 0

(0, 95): P = 665,000

(80, 20): P =  740,000

(100, 0): P = 300,000

The maximum profit of $740,000 occurs when the contractor builds 80 colonial houses and 20 ranch-style houses

Hence, for maximum profit, the contractor should build 80 colonial houses and 20 ranch-style houses.

How many 1/4 inch cubes does it take to fill a box with width 1 inches, length 3 3/4 inches and height 1 1/2inches?

Answers

Step-by-step explanation:

we need to see how many cubes fit into every dimension.

we can fit 4 cubes along the 1 in width. as 4×1/4 = 1 in.

we can fit 15 cubes along the 3 3/4 in length :

3 3/4 = 12/4 + 3/4 = 15/4

15/4 / 1/4 = 15/4 × 4/1 = 4×15 / 4×1 = 15

we can put 6 cubes on top of each other fit the height of 1 1/2 in

1 1/2 = 2/2 + 1/2 = 3/2 = 6/4

6/4 / 1/4 = ... = 6 (as above - simply 1/4 fits 6 times into 6/4).

so, we have

4 × 15 × 6 = 360

we need 360 cubes to fill the box.
