The number of eggs that a female house fly lays during her lifetime is normally distributed with mean 790 and standard deviation 92.
Random samples of size 98 are drawn from this population, and the mean of each sample is determined. What is the probability that
the mean number of eggs laid would differ from 790 by less than 30? Round your answer to four decimal places.
Answer:
0.9988 = 99.88% probability that the mean number of eggs laid would differ from 790 by less than 30.
Step-by-step explanation:
To solve this question, we need to understand the normal probability distribution and the central limit theorem.
Normal Probability Distribution:
Problems of normal distributions can be solved using the z-score formula.
In a set with mean \(\mu\) and standard deviation \(\sigma\), the z-score of a measure X is given by:
\(Z = \frac{X - \mu}{\sigma}\)
The Z-score 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. This p-value is the probability that the value of the measure is smaller than X, that is, the percentile of X. Subtracting 1 by the p-value, we get the probability that the value of the measure is greater than X.
Central Limit Theorem
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 \(s = \frac{\sigma}{\sqrt{n}}\).
For a skewed variable, the Central Limit Theorem can also be applied, as long as n is at least 30.
Mean 790 and standard deviation 92.
This means that \(\mu = 790, \sigma = 92\)
Samples of 98
This means that \(n = 98, s = \frac{92}{\sqrt{98}}\)
What is the probability that the mean number of eggs laid would differ from 790 by less than 30?
This is the pvalue of Z when X = 790 + 30 = 820 subtracted by the pvalue of Z when X = 790 - 30 = 760. So
X = 820
\(Z = \frac{X - \mu}{\sigma}\)
By the Central Limit Theorem
\(Z = \frac{X - \mu}{s}\)
\(Z = \frac{820 - 790}{\frac{92}{\sqrt{98}}}\)
\(Z = 3.23\)
\(Z = 3.23\) has a pvalue of 0.9994
X = 760
\(Z = \frac{X - \mu}{s}\)
\(Z = \frac{760 - 790}{\frac{92}{\sqrt{98}}}\)
\(Z = -3.23\)
\(Z = -3.23\) has a pvalue of 0.0006
0.9994 - 0.0006 = 0.9988
0.9988 = 99.88% probability that the mean number of eggs laid would differ from 790 by less than 30.

Circle Project 1. Draw a point at (1, -2) 2. Draw an 8-unit long radius 3. Using a compass, Draw a circle with your point from step one as your center and the point from step two as the side. 4. Using a protractor, draw a 70 degree arc 5. Draw a central angle which intercepts your arc 6. Draw an inscribed angle which intercepts a 40 degree arc 7. Draw a tangent line 8. Draw a secant line 9. Write the equation of your circle.
Answer:
I can explain how to complete each of the steps you have provided.
1. Draw a point at (1, -2)
This is a simple step. Just mark a dot on your paper at the coordinates (1, -2).
2.
Draw an 8-unit long radius
Using your compass, set the radius to 8 units. Place the compass on the point you drew in step 1 and draw a circle around it, making sure that the radius is 8 units long.
3. Using a compass
Draw a circle with your point from step one as your center and the point from step two as the side: This step is already completed in step 2.
4. Using a protractor draw a 70 degree arc
Place your protractor on the center of the circle (the point you drew in step 1) and draw a 70 degree arc on the circle.
5. Draw a central angle which intercepts your arc
Use a straight edge to draw a line from the center of the circle to each endpoint of the arc you drew in step 4. This creates a central angle, which is an angle whose vertex is at the center of the circle and whose sides intercept the circle.
6. Draw an inscribed angle which intercepts a 40 degree arc
Use a straight edge to draw a line from one endpoint of the 70 degree arc to the other endpoint. Then, draw a perpendicular bisector of this line, which intersects the center of the circle. This creates a 40 degree arc on the circle. Draw a line from the center of the circle to one endpoint of the 40 degree arc, and draw a line from that endpoint to the other endpoint of the 40 degree arc. This creates an inscribed angle, which is an angle whose vertex is on the circle and whose sides intercept the circle.
7. Draw a tangent line
Choose a point on the circle that is not on the 70 degree arc. Draw a line from that point tangent to the circle.
8. Draw a secant line
Choose two points on the circle that are not on the 70 degree arc. Draw a line through those points, which intersects the circle at two points.
9. Equation of your circle
The equation of a circle with center (a,b) and radius r is (x-a)^2 + (y-b)^2 = r^2. Using the coordinates of the center from step 1 and the radius from step 2, the equation of the circle is (x-1)^2 + (y+2)^2 = 64.

Given the sequence \(c_n\) defined recursively below, find \(c_5\).
\(c_1 =4\)
\(c_2 = 2\)
\(c_n = 3c_{n-1}+2c_{n-2}-2\)
Hello!
\(\large\boxed{c_{5} = 136}\)
We can begin by solving for c₃ given the equations:
c₃ = 3c₂ + 2c₁ - 2
c₃ = 3(2) + 2(4) - 2
Simplify:
c₃ = 6 + 8 - 2 = 12
We can now find the subsequent terms:
c₄ = 3(12) + 2(2) - 2 = 38
c₅ = 3(38) + 2(12) - 2 = 136
Now we have to,
find the required value of c₅.
Given that,
→ c₁ = 4
→ c₂ = 2
→ \( \sf {c_n = 3c_{n-1}+2c_{n-2}-2}\)
Let's solve c₃ first,
→ 3c₂ + 2c₁ - 2
→ 3(2) + 2(4) - 2
→ 6 + 8 - 2 = 12
Then the value of c₃ is
→ [c₃ = 12]
Then find the value of c₄,
→ c₄ = 3(12) + 2(2) - 2
→ c₄ = {36 + 4} - 2
→ c₄ = 40 - 2
→ [c₄ = 38]
Next we can solve for c₅,
→ c₅ = 3(38) + 2(12) - 2
→ c₅ = {114 + 24} - 2
→ c₅ = 138 - 2
→ [c₅ = 136]
Hence, the value of c₅ is 136.

Statistical data of breakdowns of computer XXX show that the duration for trouble-free operation of the machine can be described as a gamma distribution with a mean of 40 days and a standard deviation of 10 days. The computer is occasionally taken out for maintenance in order to insure operational condition at any time with a 95% probability.
1. How often should the computer be scheduled for maintenance? Should it be shorter or longer than the mean of 40 days?
2. Three XXX computers were acquired at the same time by an engineering consulting firm. The computers are operating under the same environment, workload, and regular maintenance schedule. The breakdown times between the computers, however, may be assumed to be statistically independent. What is the probability that at least one of the three machines will break down within the first scheduled maintenance time?
1. In this case, we want the reliability to be 95%, so the probability of not breaking down is 0.95.
2. Probability of no breakdowns = (reliability of a single machine)^3. Probability of at least one breakdown = 1 - Probability of no breakdowns
1. To determine how often the computer should be scheduled for maintenance, we need to consider the reliability and the desired level of operational condition. Since the duration for trouble-free operation follows a gamma distribution with a mean of 40 days, this means that, on average, the computer can operate for 40 days before a breakdown occurs.
To ensure operational condition with a 95% probability, we can calculate the maintenance interval using the concept of reliability. The reliability represents the probability that the machine will not break down within a certain time period. In this case, we want the reliability to be 95%, so the probability of not breaking down is 0.95.
Using the gamma distribution parameters, we can find the corresponding reliability for a specific time duration. By setting the reliability equation equal to 0.95 and solving for time, we can find the maintenance interval:
reliability = 0.95
time = maintenance interval
Using reliability and the gamma distribution parameters, we can calculate the maintenance interval.
2. To calculate the probability that at least one of the three machines will break down within the first scheduled maintenance time, we can use the complementary probability approach.
The probability that none of the machines will break down within the first scheduled maintenance time is given by the reliability of a single machine raised to the power of the number of machines:
Probability of no breakdowns = (reliability of a single machine)^3
Since the breakdown times between the machines are statistically independent, we can assume that the reliability of each machine is the same. Therefore, we can use the reliability calculated in the first part and substitute it into the formula:
Probability of at least one breakdown = 1 - Probability of no breakdowns
By calculating this expression, we can determine the probability that at least one of the three machines will break down within the first scheduled maintenance time.

Answer:
A. \(x = 4\cdot (y-1)^{2}-2\)
Step-by-step explanation:
From the image attached below statement we understand that a parabola with a horizontal axis of symmetry and whose vertex is centered at \(V(x,y) = (h,k)\) is defined by the following expression:
\(x-h = C\cdot (y-k)^{2}\) (1)
Where \(C\) is the parabola factor, when \(C > 0\), the parabola is oriented in the +x direction, otherwise is oriented in the -x direction. Hence, we may conclude that equation of the parabola is of the form:

Sally is given $850. Every year, she decides to donate 9% of this money to charity until she has none left.
After 34 years, approximately how much money will Sally have left?
Answer:
Step-by-step explanation:
Year 1: $850 * 0.91 = $773.50
Year 2: $773.50 * 0.91 = $704.69
Year 3: $704.69 * 0.91 = $641.95
...
Year 34: (continue the pattern)
We can continue this calculation for each year, but to save time, we can use an exponential decay formula:
Remaining Amount = Initial Amount * (1 - rate)^years
Substituting the values:
Remaining Amount = $850 * (1 - 0.09)^34
Calculating this expression:
Remaining Amount ≈ $850 * (0.91)^34 ≈ $255.88
After 34 years, approximately $255.88 will be left with Sally.

Peter set off from Town A at 10 am, driving at an average speed of 84 km/h. He reached
Town B at 2 pm. If William set off 1 hour 25 minutes earlier than Peter and took the
same route at an average speed of 70 km/h, at what time would William reach Town B?
Peter left Town A around 10 a.m., traveling at an average speed of 84 km/h. William would reach Town B at 1:23 PM.
Firstly, we need to find the distance between Town A and Town B which can be calculated by calculating the distance travelled by Peter
Time taken by Peter = 2PM - 10AM
= 4 hrs
Speed of Peter = 84 km/h
Distance travelled by Peter = speed × time
= 84 × 4
= 336 km
So, the distance between Town A and Town B = distance travelled by Peter = 336 km.
Now, we will calculate time taken by William.
Speed of William = 70 km / hr
Distance travelled by William = distance between Town A and town B = 336 km
Time taken by William = distance / speed
= 336 / 70 hr
= 4.8 hr
This can b converted into hrs and minutes
4.8 hr = 4 hr + 0.8 × 60
= 4 hr 48 mins
Time William took off = 10 AM - 1hr 25 mins
= 8:35 AM
Now, we will calculate the time William would reach town B.
Time = 8:35 + 4hr 48 mins
= 1:23 PM

Use a graphing calculator to estimate when the population will exceed 2627.
t =------------
The population will exceed 2627 when t is greater than approximately 6.05.
What is inequality?Inequality is a mathematical cοncept that expresses a relatiοnship between twο values οr expressiοns, indicating that οne is greater than, less than, οr nοt equal tο the οther. An inequality is usually represented using symbοls such as < (less than), > (greater than), ≤ (less than οr equal tο), ≥ (greater than οr equal tο), and ≠ (nοt equal tο).
To solve for the value of t when the population exceeds 2627, we can set up the inequality:
p(t) > 2627
Substituting the given equation for p(t), we get:
1000\(e^{0.21t}\) > > 2627
Dividing both sides by 1000, we get:
\(e^{0.21t}\) > 2.627
Taking the natural logarithm of both sides, we get:
0.21t > ln(2.627)
Solving for t, we get:
t > ln(2.627)/0.21 ≈ 6.05
Therefore, the population will exceed 2627 when t is greater than approximately 6.05.
