A minority representation group accuses a major bank of racial discrimination in its recent hires for financial analysts. Exactly 16% of all applications were from minority members, and exactly 15% of the 2100 open positions were filled by members of the minority.

Required:
a. Find the mean of p, where p is the proportion of minority member applications in a random sample of 2100 that is drawn from all applications.
b. Find the standard deviation of p.

Answers

Answer 1

Answer:

a) The mean is of [tex]\mu = 0.16[/tex]

b) The standard deviation is of [tex]s = 0.008[/tex]

Step-by-step explanation:

Central Limit Theorem

The Central Limit Theorem establishes that, for a normally distributed random variable X, with mean [tex]\mu[/tex] and standard deviation [tex]\sigma[/tex], the sampling distribution of the sample means with size n can be approximated to a normal distribution with mean [tex]\mu[/tex] and standard deviation [tex]s = \frac{\sigma}{\sqrt{n}}[/tex].

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

For a proportion p in a sample of size n, the sampling distribution of the sample proportion will be approximately normal with mean [tex]\mu = p[/tex] and standard deviation [tex]s = \sqrt{\frac{p(1-p)}{n}}[/tex]

Question a:

Exactly 16% of all applications were from minority members

This means [tex]p = 0.16[/tex], and thus, the mean is of [tex]\mu = p = 0.16[/tex]

b. Find the standard deviation of p.

2100 open positions, thus [tex]n = 2100[/tex].

[tex]s = \sqrt{\frac{p(1-p)}{n}}[/tex]

[tex]s = \sqrt{\frac{0.16*0.84}{2100}}[/tex]

[tex]s = 0.008[/tex]

The standard deviation is of [tex]s = 0.008[/tex]

the equation x^2 + y^2 + 21 = 40 + 18y. What is the radius of this cookie?​

Answers

Answer:

The radius is 10

Step-by-step explanation:

Given

[tex]x^2 + y^2 + 21 = 40 + 18y.[/tex]

Required

The radius

Rewrite as:

[tex]x^2 + y^2 - 18y = 40-21[/tex]

Subtract 81 from both sides

[tex]x^2 + y^2 - 18y +81= 40-21+81[/tex]

Expand

[tex]x^2 + y^2 - 9y - 9y +81= 40-21+81[/tex]

Factorize

[tex]x^2 + y( y- 9) - 9(y -9)= 40-21+81[/tex]

Factor out y - 9

[tex]x^2 + (y- 9) (y -9)= 40-21+81[/tex]

For the function f(x)=−7x^3−8x+2x^2, Step 1 of 2 : Find the slope of the tangent line at x=1.

Answers

Answer:

The slope of the tangent line at x = 1 is -25.

Step-by-step explanation:

We are given the function:

[tex]f(x)=-7x^3-8x+2x^2[/tex]

And we want to find the slope of the tangent line at x = 1.

The slope of the tangent line at a point for a function is given by its derivative. Find the derivative of the function:

[tex]f'(x)=-21x^2+4x-8[/tex]

Then the slope of the tangent line at x = 1 is:

[tex]f'(1)=-21(1)^2+4(1)-8=-25[/tex]

(a) Find the unit tangent and unit normal vectors T(t) and N(t).
(b) Use Formula 9 to find the curvature.
r(1) = (t , 1/2t2, t2)

Answers

Answer:

a. i. (i + tj + 2tk)/√(1 + 5t²)

ii.  (-5ti + j + 2k)/√[25t² + 5]

b. √5/[√(1 + 5t²)]³

Step-by-step explanation:

a. The unit tangent

The unit tangent T(t) = r'(t)/|r'(t)| where |r'(t)| = magnitude of r'(t)

r(t) = (t, t²/2, t²)

r'(t) = dr(t)/dt = d(t, t²/2, t²)/dt = (1, t, 2t)

|r'(t)| = √[1² + t² + (2t)²] = √[1² + t² + 4t²] = √(1 + 5t²)

So, T(t) = r'(t)/|r'(t)| = (1, t, 2t)/√(1 + 5t²)  = (i + tj + 2tk)/√(1 + 5t²)

ii. The unit normal

The unit normal N(t) = T'(t)/|T'(t)|

T'(t) = dT(t)/dt = d[ (i + tj + 2tk)/√(1 + 5t²)]/dt

= -5ti/√(1 + 5t²)⁻³ + [-5t²j/√(1 + 5t²)⁻³] + [-10tk/√(1 + 5t²)⁻³]

= -5ti/√(1 + 5t²)⁻³ + [-5t²j/√(1 + 5t²)⁻³] + j/√(1 + 5t²)+ [-10t²k/√(1 + 5t²)⁻³] + 2k/√(1 + 5t²)

= -5ti/√(1 + 5t²)⁻³ - 5t²j/[√(1 + 5t²)]⁻³ + j/√(1 + 5t²) - 10t²k/[√(1 + 5t²)]⁻³ + 2k/√(1 + 5t²)

= -5ti/√(1 + 5t²)⁻³ - 5t²j/[√(1 + 5t²)]⁻³ - 10t²k/[√(1 + 5t²)]⁻³ + j/√(1 + 5t²) + 2k/√(1 + 5t²)

= -(i + tj + 2tk)5t/[√(1 + 5t²)]⁻³ + (j + 2k)/√(1 + 5t²)

We multiply by the L.C.M [√(1 + 5t²)]³  to simplify it further

= [√(1 + 5t²)]³ × -(i + tj + 2tk)5t/[√(1 + 5t²)]⁻³ + [√(1 + 5t²)]³ × (j + 2k)/√(1 + 5t²)

= -(i + tj + 2tk)5t + (j + 2k)(1 + 5t²)

= -5ti - 5²tj - 10t²k + j + 5t²j + 2k + 10t²k

= -5ti + j + 2k

So, the magnitude of T'(t) = |T'(t)| = √[(-5t)² + 1² + 2²] = √[25t² + 1 + 4] = √[25t² + 5]

So, the normal vector N(t) = T'(t)/|T'(t)| = (-5ti + j + 2k)/√[25t² + 5]

(b) Use Formula 9 to find the curvature.

The curvature κ = |r'(t) × r"(t)|/|r'(t)|³

since r'(t) = (1, t, 2t), r"(t) = dr'/dt = d(1, t, 2t)/dt  = (0, 1, 2)

r'(t) = i + tj + 2tk and r"(t) = j + 2k

r'(t) × r"(t) =  (i + tj + 2tk) × (j + 2k)

= i × j + i × 2k + tj × j + tj × 2k + 2tk × j + 2tk × k

= k - 2j + 0 + 2ti - 2ti + 0

= -2j + k

So magnitude r'(t) × r"(t) = |r'(t) × r"(t)| = √[(-2)² + 1²] = √(4 + 1) = √5

magnitude of r'(t) = |r'(t)| = √(1 + 5t²)

|r'(t)|³ = [√(1 + 5t²)]³

κ = |r'(t) × r"(t)|/|r'(t)|³ = √5/[√(1 + 5t²)]³

A drapery store manager was interested in determining whether a new employee can install vertical blinds faster than an employee who has been with the company for two years. The manager takes independent samples of 10 records of installations times of vertical blinds of each of the two employees and computes the following information. Test whether the new employee installs vertical blinds faster, on the average, than the veteran employee, at the level of significance 0.05.

New Employee Veteran Employee
Sample Size 10 10
Sample Mean 22.2 min 24.8 min
Standard Deviation 0.90 min 0.75 min

Required:
What is the appropriate conclusion for this test?

Answers

Answer:

we arrive at the conclusion that the new employee installs the vertical blinds faster on average.

Step-by-step explanation:

null hypothesis; m₁-m₂ =0

alternative hypothesis; m₁-m₂<0

Given the information in this question, we first have to solve for the t statistic

[tex]t=\frac{22-24.8}{\sqrt{\frac{0.90^{2} }{10}+\frac{0.75^{2} }{10} } }[/tex]

[tex]t=\frac{-2.6}{\sqrt{o.081+0.05625} }[/tex]

[tex]t=\frac{-2.6}{0.37047}[/tex]

t = -7.018

the degree of freedom = n₁+n₂-2

= 10+10-2

= 18

Alpha α = 0.05

from these results the t critical value = -1.734

because the test statistic -7.018 < -1.734,

at 0.05 level of testing, we arrive at the conclusion that the new employee installs the vertical blinds faster on average than the veteran.

Step-by-step explanation:

if angle 6 is 97 then the total would be 180 meaning that 83 would be the answer to 5s angle

"83 degrees" is correct.

On a line, it can be assumed that all the angles must add up to 180 degrees. If you have two angle on a line and don't know the value of one of them, you can subtract that angle from 180 to find the missing angle. Considering this, 180 - 97 = 83.

To find the mean of the data.

What is mean?

Mean is the average of the given numbers and is calculated by dividing the sum of given numbers by the total number of numbers. Mean = (Sum of all the observations/Total number of observations). Mean is the most commonly used measure of central tendency. There are different types of mean, viz. arithmetic mean, weighted mean, geometric mean (GM) and harmonic mean (HM).

Given that:

The data are:

217 + 253 + 214 + 247 + 217 + 253 + 232 + 246 + 223 + 227 + 229 + 247 + 206 + 241 + 239 + 223 + 222 + 216 + 252 + 209 + 236 + 256 = 5105

Answers

Notice how points T and Z are vertically aligned, or vertically lined up. This is where the graph fails the vertical line test.

The input x = 2 leads to the outputs y = 3 and y = 5 (which are the y coordinates of points Z and T in that order).

A function is only possible when any given input leads to exactly one output only. It would be like saying "the conversion function from Celsius to Fahrenheit has 0 degrees C convert to both 32 degrees F and 50 degrees F at the same time". But such a statement makes no sense and it's not useful. So this is one example of why having one output makes sense for a function.

In short, we need one output for any given input. But the input x = 2 leads to more than one output. That's why we don't have a function.
