Suppose that the middle 95% of average scores in the NBA per player per game fall between 8.18 and 31.34. Give an approximate estimate of the standard deviation of the number of the points scored. Assume the points scored has a normal distribution.

Answers

Answer 1

Answer:

An approximate estimate of the standard deviation of the number of the points scored per game is of 5.79.

Step-by-step explanation:

The Empirical Rule states that, for a normally distributed random variable:

Approximately 68% of the measures are within 1 standard deviation of the mean.

Approximately 95% of the measures are within 2 standard deviations of the mean.

Approximately 99.7% of the measures are within 3 standard deviations of the mean.

Suppose that the middle 95% of average scores in the NBA per player per game fall between 8.18 and 31.34.

This means that there is 4 standard deviations within this interval. So

[tex]4s = 31.34 - 8.18[/tex]

[tex]4s = 23.16[/tex]

[tex]s = \frac{23.16}{4}[/tex]

[tex]s = 5.79[/tex]

An approximate estimate of the standard deviation of the number of the points scored per game is of 5.79.

A guide wire of length 108 meters runs from the top of an antenna to the ground. If the angle of elevation to the top of the antenna is 42.3 degrees, then what is the height of the antenna

Answers

Answer: Approximately 72.69 meters

Step-by-step explanation:

Antenna height = h

[tex]sin(42.3)=\frac{opposite}{hypotenuse} =\frac{h}{108} \\\\108*sin(42.3)=h\\\\h=72.685[/tex]

The height of the antenna by using the Pythagoras theorem is 72.68 meters.

What is trigonometry?

"Trigonometry is one of the branches of mathematics that deals with the relationship between the sides of a triangle (right triangle) with its angles".

For the given situation,

Length of guidewire = 108 meters

Angle of elevation = 42.3 degrees

Height of the antenna be 'h'.

By Pythagoras theorem,

[tex]Sine[/tex] θ = [tex]\frac{Perpendicular}{hypotenuse}[/tex]

On substituting the above values,

⇒ [tex]Sine 42.3 = \frac{h}{108}[/tex]

⇒ [tex]0.6730 =\frac{h}{108}[/tex]

⇒ [tex]h=0.6730[/tex] × [tex]108[/tex]

⇒ [tex]h= 72.68[/tex]

Hence we can conclude that the height of the antenna is 72.68 meters.

Read the following scenario, and then answer the question.

Juan assumes that the temperature of the hot tea cooling on his desk can be modeled with an exponential function like this one: T(t)=179(0.92)t. He bases his assumption on the following: The tea cools about 8% every minute. The tea's current temperature is around 179 degrees Fahrenheit.

Which explanation correctly addresses Juan's assumption?

He is incorrect. The tea will cool linearly since it cools at the same number of degrees every minute.
He is correct. The tea will cool exponentially since it cools at a percentage rate every minute.
He is incorrect. The tea will cool along the curve of a parabola since it cools at an increasing percentage rate every minute.

Answers

Answer:

  (b)  He is correct. The tea will cool exponentially since it cools at a percentage rate every minute.

Step-by-step explanation:

Newton's Law of Cooling says the change in temperature is proportional to the temperature. This relation gives rise to an exponential function describing the temperature.

In this description, the temperature referred to is the difference between the temperature of the object and the temperature of the environment to/from which heat is being transferred.

Juan is only partially correct. The function is exponential, but the temperature that should be used in his equation is not the temperature of the tea, but the temperature difference between the tea and his desk.

Approximately 5% of workers in the US use public transportation to get to work. You randomly select 25 workers and ask if they use public transportation to get to work. Find the probability that exactly 2 workers say yes.

Answers

Answer:

0.2305 = 23.05% probability that exactly 2 workers say yes.

Step-by-step explanation:

For each worker, there are only two possible outcomes. Either they say yes, or they say no. The probability of a worker saying yes is independent of any other worker, which means that the binomial probability distribution is used to solve this question.

Binomial probability distribution

The binomial probability is the probability of exactly x successes on n repeated trials, and X can only have two outcomes.

[tex]P(X = x) = C_{n,x}.p^{x}.(1-p)^{n-x}[/tex]

In which [tex]C_{n,x}[/tex] is the number of different combinations of x objects from a set of n elements, given by the following formula.

[tex]C_{n,x} = \frac{n!}{x!(n-x)!}[/tex]

And p is the probability of X happening.

5% of workers in the US use public transportation to get to work.

This means that [tex]p = 0.05[/tex]

You randomly select 25 workers

This means that [tex]n = 25[/tex]

Find the probability that exactly 2 workers say yes.

This is P(X = 2). So

[tex]P(X = x) = C_{n,x}.p^{x}.(1-p)^{n-x}[/tex]

[tex]P(X = 2) = C_{25,2}.(0.05)^{2}.(0.95)^{23} = 0.2305[/tex]

0.2305 = 23.05% probability that exactly 2 workers say yes.

define saturated and unsaturated fats​

Answers

Answer:

A saturated fat is a type of fat in which the fatty acid chains have all or predominantly single bonds. A fat is made of two kinds of smaller molecules: glycerol and fatty acids. Fats are made of long chains of carbon atoms. Some carbon atoms are linked by single bonds and others are linked by double bonds.

Saturated fats: a type of fat containing a high proportion of fatty acid molecules without double bonds, considered to be less healthy in the diet than unsaturated fat

Unsaturated fats: a type of fat containing a high proportion of fatty acid molecules with at least one double bond, considered to be healthier in the diet than saturated fat.

what's the difference between both?: saturated fats Contains a single bond, Excessive consumption leads to heart diseases,High melting point and Solid state in room temperature. While Unsaturated Contains at least one double bond, Good for consumption, but excessive may increase cholesterol,Low melting point and Liquid state in room temperature.

solve the system of equations using substitution or graphing.

Answers

Step-by-step explanation:

I think substitution would be the easiest since you already have one of the variables solved for.

[tex]y=-x^2+4x+5\\y=x+1\\x+1=-x^2+4x+5\\x^2-3x-4=0\\(x-4)(x+1)=0\\x-4=0\\x=4\\x+1=0\\x=-1[/tex]

(You can just set the equations equal to each other since they both equal y).

Now, to get the points, plug in x = 4 and x = -1 into one of the equations (I'm going to plug them into y = x+1 because that one is much simpler)

[tex]y(4)=4+1\\y(4)=5\\y(-1)=-1+1\\y(-1)=0[/tex]

So, your final points are:

(4,5) and (-1,0)

Answer: A

Step-by-step explanation:

We can use substitution to solve this problem. Since we are given y=-x²+4x+5 and y=x+1, we can set them equal to each other.

-x²+4x+5=x+1        [subtract both sides by x]

-x²+3x+5=1            [subtract both sides by 1]

-x²+3x+4=0

Now that we have the equation above, we can factor it to find the roots.

-x²+3x+4=0           [factor out -1]

-1(x²-3x-4)=0         [factor x²-3x-4]

-1(x+1)(x-4)=0

This tells us that x=-1 and x=4.

We can narrow down our answer to A, but let's plug in those values to be sure it is correct.

-(-1)²+4(-1)+5=(-1)+1      [exponent]

-1+4(-1)+5=-1+1              [multiply]

-1-4+5=-1+1                    [add and subtract from left to right]

0=0  

-------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------

-(4)²+4(4)+5=(4)+1      [exponent]

-16+4(4)+5=4+1           [multiply]

-16+16+5=4+1              [add and subtract from left to right]

5=5

Therefore, we can conclude that A is the correct answer.

Determine whether the following propositions are true or false:
(a) 5 is an odd number and 3 is a negative number.
(b) 5 is an odd number or 3 is a negative number.
(c) 8 is an odd number or 4 is not an odd number.
(d) 6 is an even number and 7 is odd or negative.
(e) It is not true that either 7 is an odd number or 8 is an even number (or both).

Answers

Answer:

a) false

b) true

c) true

d) true

e) false

Step-by-step explanation:

In a statement of the type:

p ∧ q

where ∧ means "and"

The statement is true only if both p and q are true

the statement is false if p, q, or both, are false.

and in the case of:

p ∨ q

where ∨ means "or"

The statement is true if at least one of p or q (or both) are true.

The statement is false if both are false.

Now that we know that, let's solve the problem:

a) "5 is an odd number and 3 is a negative number."

Here we have:

p = 5 is an odd number

We know that this is true

q = 3 is a negative number

This is false.

then the complete statement is false.

b) "5 is an odd number or 3 is a negative number."

here we have:

p = 5 is an odd number.

this is true

q = 3 is a negative number

because in this case we have an "or", with only p being true, the whole statement is true.

c) "8 is an odd number or 4 is not an odd number."

p = 8 is an odd number  (this is false)

q = 4 is not an odd number  (this is true, 4 is a even number)

Again, we have an "or", so we need only one true proposition, then the statement is true.

d) "6 is an even number and 7 is odd or negative."

p = 6 is an even number  (true)

q = 7 is odd or negative  (notice that we have an or, and 7 is odd is true, so this proposition is true)

Then both propositions are true, then the statement is true.

e) "It is not true that either 7 is an odd number or 8 is an even number (or both)."

This is most complex, this will be true if at least one of the propositions is false.

but:

7 is an odd number is true

8 is an even number is true.

Then both statements are true, which means that the statement is false.

83 does not equal 1/83 so this is a false statement.

37/5 = 5 2/5

Convert the improper fraction into a mixed number:

7 2/5 = 5 2/5

These numbers do not equal each other so this is a false.

68/5 - 22/5 = 9 1/5

Subtract the numerators on the left side of the equation:

46/5 = 9 1/5

Convert the improper fraction into a mixed number:

9 1/5 = 9 1/5

These numbers equal each other so this is a true statement!

[tex]f(x)= 0.21x+13.8[/tex]

We want to find the value of the diamond production in 2006.

We know that x is the number of years after 2000. The year 2006 was 6 years after 2000 because 2006 - 2000 = 6. Therefore, x (years after 2000) is equal to 6. We can substitute 6 in for x.

[tex]f(6)= 0.21(6)+ 13.8[/tex]

Solve according to PEMDAS (Parentheses, Exponents, Multiplication, Division, Addition, Subtraction).

Multiply 0.21 and 6.

[tex]f(6)= 1.26+13.8[/tex]

Add 1.26 and 13.8

[tex]f(6)=15.06[/tex]

Remember the answer is in billions of dollars.

[tex]f(6)= \$ 15.06 \ billion[/tex]

Diamond production in 2006 is expected to be worth 15.06 billion dollars.
