7. Trading volume on the New York Stock Exchange is heaviest during the first half hour (early morning) and last half hour (late afternoon) of the trading day. The early morning trading volumes (millions of shares) for 13 days in January and February are shown here (Barron’s, January 23, 2006; February 13, 2006; and February 27, 2006). 214 163 265 194 180 202 198 212 201 174 171 211 211 The probability distribution of trading volume is approximately normal. a) Compute the mean and standard deviation to use as estimates of the population mean and standard deviation. b) What is the probability that, on a randomly selected day, the early morning trading volume will be less than 180 million shares? c) What is the probability that, on a randomly selected day, the early morning trading volume will exceed 230 million shares?
In this problem, first we find the sample mean and the standard deviation, and then, we use the normal distribution. Then, we get that:
a) The mean is of 199.69 and the standard deviation is of 25.02.
b) 0.2148 = 21.48% probability that, on a randomly selected day, the early morning trading volume will be less than 180 million shares.
c) 0.1131 = 11.31% probability that, on a randomly selected day, the early morning trading volume will exceed 230 million shares.
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.Item a:
The mean is the sum of all observations divided by the number of observations, thus:
[tex]\mu = \frac{214 + 163 + 265 + 194 + 180 + 202 + 198 + 212 + 201 + 174 + 171 + 211 + 211}{13} = 199.69[/tex]
The standard deviation is given by the square root of the sum of the difference squared between each observation and the mean, divided by the number of values. Thus:
[tex]\sigma = \sqrt{\frac{(214-199.69)^2 + (163-199.69)^2 + (265-199.69)^2 + (194-199.69)^2 + ... + (211-199.69)^2}{13}} = 25.02[/tex]
The mean is of 199.69 and the standard deviation is of 25.02.
Item b:
This probability is the p-value of Z when X = 180, thus:
[tex]Z = \frac{X - \mu}{\sigma}[/tex]
[tex]Z = \frac{180 - 199.69}{25.02}[/tex]
[tex]Z = -0.79[/tex]
[tex]Z = -0.79[/tex] has a p-value of 0.2148.
0.2148 = 21.48% probability that, on a randomly selected day, the early morning trading volume will be less than 180 million shares.
Item c:
This probability is 1 subtracted by the p-value of Z when X = 230, thus:
[tex]Z = \frac{X - \mu}{\sigma}[/tex]
[tex]Z = \frac{230 - 199.69}{25.02}[/tex]
[tex]Z = 1.21[/tex]
[tex]Z = 1.21[/tex] has a p-value of 0.8869.
1 - 0.8869 = 0.1131
0.1131 = 11.31% probability that, on a randomly selected day, the early morning trading volume will exceed 230 million shares.

Two trains leave stations 420 miles apart at the same time and travel toward each other. One train travels at 65 miles per hour while the other travels at 85
miles per hour. How long will it take for the two trains to meet?
Do not do any rounding.
Answer:
2hr 48 minutes
Step-by-step explanation:
65t + 85t = 420
150t = 420
t = 2 120/150 = 2 4/5 = 2hr 48 minutes
Time taken by two trains to cover 420 miles is 2hr 48 minutes.
Given, that two trains are travelling towards each other.
Relation between speed, time and distance:
Distance = Speed × Time
When the two trains are travelling towards each other the speeds of two trains are added.
When the two trains are moving in same direction then the relative speed is difference of the two.
So, here the trains are moving towards each other.
65t + 85t = 420
150t = 420
t = 420/150
t = 42/15
t = 2hr 48 minutes
Therefore total time required by two trains to meet is 2hr 48 minutes.

Step-by-step explanation:
1) 2.4+1.6+3.2+0.3+1.5=9
you divide 9 by 5 because that is the number of elements in the data.
9/5=1.8
2) the total would be 50 more because 5*10=50.

Answer:
y = - [tex]\frac{5}{2}[/tex] x + [tex]\frac{31}{2}[/tex]
Step-by-step explanation:
Calculate the slope m of BC using the slope formula
m = [tex]\frac{y_{2}-y_{1} }{x_{2}-x_{1} }[/tex]
with (x₁, y₁ ) = B (7, 5 ) and (x₂, y₂ ) = C (2, 3 )
[tex]m_{BC}[/tex] = [tex]\frac{3-5}{2-7}[/tex] = [tex]\frac{-2}{-5}[/tex] = [tex]\frac{2}{5}[/tex]
Given a line with slope m then the slope of a line perpendicular to it is
[tex]m_{perpendicular}[/tex] = - [tex]\frac{1}{m}[/tex] = - [tex]\frac{1}{\frac{2}{5} }[/tex] = - [tex]\frac{5}{2}[/tex] , then
y = - [tex]\frac{5}{2}[/tex] x + c ← is the partial equation
To find c substitute A (3, 8 ) into the partial equation
8 = - [tex]\frac{15}{2}[/tex] + c ⇒ c = 8 + [tex]\frac{15}{2}[/tex] = [tex]\frac{16}{2}[/tex] +[tex]\frac{15}{2}[/tex] = [tex]\frac{31}{2}[/tex]
y = - [tex]\frac{5}{2}[/tex] x + [tex]\frac{31}{2}[/tex] ← equation of perpendicular line
The equation for a line passing through point A and perpendicular to BC is 2y = -5x +31 or y = -2.5x +15.5.
What is the equation of a Straight Line ?The equation of the straight line is represented by
y = mx+c
where m is the slope , and c is the intercept on y axis.
The equation of the line BC for points B(7,5), and C(2,3) is
y- y' = m(x-x')
m = 2/5
and c =
y-5 = (2/5)x - (14/5)
y = (2/5)x+(11/5)
The slope of the line perpendicular rot this line is given by
as the product of two perpendicular lines should be -1
m = -5/2
y = (-5/2)x +c
8 = (-15/2) + c
8 +(15/2) = 0
31/2 = c
Therefore the equation for a line passing through point A and perpendicular to BC is
2y = -5x +31

According to a 2014 Pew Research poll, 58% of Americans believe in Hell. Suppose a random sample of 100 Americans is obtained and the number of Americans who believe in Hell is recorded. Can this binomial experiment be approximated using a normal distribution? Be sure to demonstrate your conclusion numerically.
Testing the conditions, we get that [tex]np = 58 \geq 10[/tex] and [tex]n(1 - p) = 42 \geq 10[/tex], thus, this binomial experiment can be approximated using a normal distribution.
For each person sampled, there are only two possible outcomes. Either they believe in Hell, or they do not. The probability of a person believing in hell is independent of any other person, which means that the binomial distribution is used to solve this question.
Binomial distribution:
Probability of x successes on n trials, with p probability.
If [tex]np \geq 10[/tex] and [tex]n(1 - p) \geq 10[/tex], it can be approximated to the normal distribution.
In this problem:
Sample of size 100, thus [tex]n = 100[/tex].58% believe in Hell, thus [tex]p = 0.58[/tex].Then
[tex]np = 100(0.58) = 58 \geq 10[/tex]
[tex]n(1 - p) = 100(0.42) = 42 \geq 10[/tex]
[tex]np = 58 \geq 10[/tex] and [tex]n(1 - p) = 42 \geq 10[/tex], thus, this binomial experiment can be approximated using a normal distribution.
