Suppose that populations of men and women have the following summary statistics for their heights (in
centimeters):
Mean
Standard deviation
Men
HM = 172
M = 7.2
Women
Uw = 162
ow = 5.4
Both distributions are approximately normal. Suppose we randomly select a man and a woman from each
population, and calculate the difference between their heights. We can assume that their heights are
independent
Find the probability that the woman is taller than the man
You may round your answer to two decimal places

Answer 1

Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:

172-162 = 10  

 

We can find the standard deviation of D by adding the variances of the heights and taking the square root:

Representing probability with area

When D= M-W =0, their heights are equal. When the man is taller, D is positive, and when the woman is taller, D is negative. Since we know the distribution of the difference D is normally distributed, the probability that the woman is taller than the man can be found by calculating the shaded area below D=0, in the corresponding normal distribution:

A standard normal curve is plotted on a horizontal axis representing D, that goes from negative 17 to 37. The mean, or mu sub D, = 10. The standard deviations, or sigma sub D = 9. The value 0 is marked. The area under the curve to the left of 0 is shaded, representing the probability that the woman is taller. The area to the right represents the probability that the man is taller.

lower bound: −9999

upper bound: 0

μ=10

σ=9

​  

Answer 2

Using subtraction of normal variables, it is found that there is a 0.1335 = 13.35% probability that the woman is taller than the man.

In a normal distribution with mean [tex]\mu[/tex] and standard deviation [tex]\sigma[/tex], the z-score of a measure X is given by:

[tex]Z = \frac{X - \mu}{\sigma}[/tex]

It measures how many standard deviations the measure is from the mean.  After finding the z-score, we look at the z-score table and find the p-value associated with this z-score, which is the percentile of X. When two measures are subtracted, the mean is the subtraction of the means while the standard deviation is the square root of the variances.

In this problem:

Men have mean weight of 172 cm, women of 162 cm, hence, for the distribution of the differences, the mean is [tex]\mu = 162 - 172 = -10[/tex].The standard deviation is the square root of the sum of the variances, hence [tex]\sigma = \sqrt{7.2^2 + 5.4^2} = 9[/tex]

The probability of the women being taller is P(X > 0), which is 1 subtracted by the p-value of Z when X = 0.

[tex]Z = \frac{X - \mu}{\sigma}[/tex]

[tex]Z = \frac{0 - (-10)}{9}[/tex]

[tex]Z = 1.11[/tex]

[tex]Z = 1.11[/tex] has a p-value of 0.8665.

1 - 0.8665 = 0.1335

0.1335 = 13.35% probability that the woman is taller than the man.

Which inequality describes all the solutions to -5x + 6 < 2(-3 − x)?

Answers

Answer: x>4

Step-by-step explanation:

The solution set for the given inequality is {-2, -3, -4, -5, -6,.......}.

The given inequality is 5x + 6 < 2(-3 - x).

What is a inequality?

Inequalities are the mathematical expressions in which both sides are not equal. In inequality, unlike in equations, we compare two values. The equal sign in between is replaced by less than (or less than or equal to), greater than (or greater than or equal to), or not equal to sign.

The given inequality can solved as follows:

5x + 6 < 2(-3 - x)

Multiply 2 to the bracket

5x + 6 < -6 - 2x

Add 2x to both the sides of inequality

5x + 6 + 2x < -6 - 2x + 2x

⇒7x+6<-6

Subtract 6 to both the sides of inequality

7x+6-6<-6-6

⇒7x<-12

Divide 7 to both the sides of inequality

7x/7<-12/7

⇒x<-12/7

⇒x<-1.7

Solution set = {-2, -3, -4, -5, -6,.......}

Therefore, the solution set for the given inequality is {-2, -3, -4, -5, -6,.......}.

Consider all seven-digit numbers that can be created from the digits 0-9 where the first and last digits must be even and no digit can repeat. Assume that numbers can start with 0. What is the probability of choosing a random number that starts with 4 from this group

Answers

Answer:

[tex]P_4= 0.2[/tex]

Step-by-step explanation:

From the question we are told that

Consider all seven-digit numbers

Created from the digits 0-9

Generally number of digits that starts with 6 is mathematically  given as

The total amount of digits from 0-9(0,1,2,3,4,5,6,7,8,9 = 10

The total amount of even digits within 0-9 (0,2,4,6,8) = 5

The total amount of 3-digit numbers giving the first and last digits to be even = 5 * 10 * 5 = 250

The total 3-digit numbers giving the first digit is 4 and last digit is even = 1 * 10 * 5 = 50

Probability the number starts with 4

Answers

Answer:

If the stadium has 100 stands, it can accommodate 20,000 spectators.

Step-by-step explanation:

In order to determine the number of spectators that can enter the cricket stadium, knowing that it has 100 stands and that each of these has a capacity of 200 seated spectators, the following calculation must be performed:

200 x 100 = X

20,000 = X

[tex]y - 0 = -\frac{1}{3} (x - 3)[/tex]

Step-by-step explanation:

When given at least two points, you can find write an equation using the point-slope formula: [tex]y - y_1 = m (x - x_1)[/tex]. The [tex]x_1[/tex] and [tex]y_1[/tex] are the x and y values from one point that need to be substituted in to make an equation, as well as the [tex]m[/tex] which represents the slope.

Find the slope by using the slope formula [tex]\frac{y_2 - y_1}{x_2 - x_1}[/tex] and the two points given:

[tex]\frac{-1-0}{6-3}[/tex]

[tex]\frac{-1}{3}[/tex]

So, the slope is [tex]-\frac{1}{3}[/tex].

Next, choose a point (in this case, I chose (3,0)) and substitute its x and y values into [tex]x_1[/tex] and [tex]y_1[/tex] respectively, and also substitute  [tex]-\frac{1}{3}[/tex] for m. This forms an equation of a line in point-slope formula:

[tex]y - 0 = -\frac{1}{3} (x - 3)[/tex]

The Empirical Rule says that: Group of answer choices outliers are within three standard deviations of the mean. about 32 percent of the data are beyond one standard deviation from the mean most business data sets are normally distributed in most business data we expect the mean and median to be similar.

Answers

Answer:

The Empirical Rule says that:

outliers are within three standard deviations of the mean.

Step-by-step explanation:

An outlier is an observed data value which lies some abnormal distance from other values in a population's random sample.  The cut-off for an outlier is three standard deviations from the mean in a normal distribution.  Therefore, the Empirical Rule concludes that 99.7% of data observed following a normal distribution lies within 3 standard deviations of the mean.  In summary, the empirical rule concludes that 68% of the data falls within one standard deviation, 95% percent falls within two standard deviations, while 99.7% falls within three standard deviations from the mean.

Work out the size of angle x.
47°

Answers

Answer:

133 degrees

Step-by-step explanation:

The angle 47 degrees is on a straight line, and the angles on a straight line add up to 180 degrees.

So, to find the angle parallel to 47 degrees, subtract 47 degrees from 180 degrees

180 - 47 = 133 degrees

Now, the relationship between the angle that is 133 degrees and the angle of x is that they are corresponding angles.

And corresponding anglea are the same.

Thereforw, x = 133 degrees
