Answer 1
Answer:

The standard error of the distribution of sample proportions is 0.056 and mean is 0.15.

Yes, the sample size is enough for the Central Limit Theorem to apply.

(a). Given that, size of sample, n=40

        Proportion, p=0.15

In the distribution of sample proportions, mean \mu=p  

and, standard error = \sqrt{(p(1-p))/(n) }

So, mean \mu=0.15

Standard error =\sqrt{(0.15(1-0.15))/(40) }=0.056

(b). The Central Limit Theorem applies if np > 5 .

 np=40*0.15=6>5

Thus, the Central Limit Theorem is applied.

Answer 2
Answer:

Answer:

a) The mean is 0.15 and the standard error is 0.056.

b)  1. Yes

Step-by-step explanation:

The Central Limit Theorem estabilishes that, for a normally distributed random variable X, with mean \mu and standard deviation \sigma, the sampling distribution of the sample means with size n can be approximated to a normal distribution with mean \mu and standard deviation s = (\sigma)/(√(n)).

For a skewed variable, the Central Limit Theorem can also be applied, as long as n is at least 30.

For proportions p, in samples of size n, the mean is \mu = p and the standard error is s = \sqrt{(p(1-p))/(n)}. The Central Limit Theorem applies is np > 5 and np(1-p)>5.

In this question:

n = 40, p = 0.15

So

(a) Find the mean and the standard error of the distribution of sample proportions.

\mu = 0.15, s = \sqrt{(0.15*0.85)/(40)} = 0.056

So the mean is 0.15 and the standard error is 0.056.

(b) Is the sample size large enough for the Central Limit Theorem to apply?

np = 40*0.15 = 6 > 5

np(1-p) = 40*0.15*0.85 = 5.1>5

So yes

Answers

Answer:

a) P(X=13)=(24C13)(0.4)^(13) (1-0.4)^(24-13)=0.0608

P(X=17)=(24C17)(0.4)^(17) (1-0.4)^(24-17)=0.0017

P(X=13 U X=17) = 0.0608+0.0017=0.0624

b) P(X \geq 17)=0.000427

c) P(X \geq 16)= 1-0.000427=0.9996

d) E(X)= np = 22*0.4=8.8

e) Var(X) = np(1-p)= 22*0.4*(1-0,4)=5.28

Step-by-step explanation:

1) Previous concepts

The binomial distribution is a "DISCRETE probability distribution that summarizes the probability that a value will take one of two independent values under a given set of parameters. The assumptions for the binomial distribution are that there is only one outcome for each trial, each trial has the same probability of success, and each trial is mutually exclusive, or independent of each other".

2) Solution to the problem

Let X the random variable of interest, on this case we now that:

X \sim Binom(n=24, p=0.4)

The probability mass function for the Binomial distribution is given as:

P(X)=(nCx)(p)^x (1-p)^(n-x)

Where (nCx) means combinatory and it's given by this formula:

nCx=(n!)/((n-x)! x!)

3) Part a

P(X=13)=(22C13)(0.4)^(13) (1-0.4)^(22-13)=0.0336

P(X=17)=(22C17)(0.4)^(17) (1-0.4)^(22-17)=0.00035

P(X=13 U X=17) = 0.0336+0.00035=0.0340

4) Part b

P(X \geq 17)=P(X=17)+P(X=18)+P(X=19)+P(X=20)+P(X=21)+P(X=22)

P(X=17)=(22C17)(0.4)^(17) (1-0.4)^(22-17)=0.00035

P(X=18)=(22C18)(0.4)^(18) (1-0.4)^(22-18)=0.0000651

P(X=19)=(22C19)(0.4)^(19) (1-0.4)^(22-19)=0.00000914

P(X=20)=(22C20)(0.4)^(20) (1-0.4)^(22-20)=0.000000914

P(X=21)=(22C21)(0.4)^(21) (1-0.4)^(22-21)=5.81x10^(-8)

P(X=22)=(22C22)(0.4)^(22) (1-0.4)^(22-22)=1.76x10^(-9)

P(X \geq 17)=0.000427

5) Part c

P(X \leq 16)=1-P(X>16)=1-P(X\geq 17) = 1-[P(X=17)+P(X=18)+P(X=19)+P(X=20)+P(X=21)+P(X=22)]

P(X \geq 16)= 1-0.000427=0.9996

6) Part d

The expected value is:

E(X)= np = 22*0.4=8.8

7) Part e

The variance is given by:

Var(X) = np(1-p)= 22*0.4*(1-0,4)=5.28

Two sides of an obtuse triangle measure 10 inches and 15 inches. The length of longest side is unknown.What is the smallest possible whole-number length of the unknown side?

Answers

Answer:

The smallest possible whole-number length of the unknown side is 19\ inches

Step-by-step explanation:

we know that

The triangle inequality theorem, states that the sum of the lengths of any two sides of a triangle is greater than the length of the third side

Let

x-----> the length of longest side

Applying the triangle inequality theorem

case A)

10+15 > x

25 > x

Rewrite

x< 25

case B)

10+x > 15

x > 15-10

x> 5

The solution of the third side is the interval-------> (5,25)

but remember that

In an obtuse triangle

x^(2) > a^(2) +b^(2)

x^(2) > 15^(2) +10^(2)

x > 18.03\ inches

Round to a whole number

x= 19\ inches


10^2 (10 squared) + 15^2 = C^2 
100+225=c^2
325=c^2
