8.23 A manufacturing company produces electric insulators. You define the variable of interest as the strength of the insulators. If the insulators break when in use, a short circuit is likely. To test the strength of the insulators, you carry out destructive testing to determine how much force is required to break the insulators. You measure force by observing how many pounds are applied to the insulator before it breaks. You collect the force data for 30 insulators selected for the experiment and organize and store these data in Force: 1,870 1,728 1,656 1,610 1,634 1,784 1,522 1,696 1,592 1,662 1,866 1,764 1,734 1,662 1,734 1,774 1,550 1,756 1,762 1,866 1,820 1,744 1,788 1,688 1,810 1,752 1,680 1,810 1,652 1,736 Construct a 95% confidence interval estimate for the population mean force. What assumption must you make about the population distribution in order to construct the confidence interval estimate in (a)

Answers

Answer 1

Answer:

The 95% confidence interval estimate for the population mean force is (1691, 1755).

Step-by-step explanation:

According to the Central Limit Theorem if we have an unknown population with mean μ and standard deviation σ and appropriately huge random samples (n > 30) are selected from the population with replacement, then the distribution of the sample mean will be approximately normally.

The sample selected here is n = 30.

Thus, the sampling distribution of the sample mean will be normal.

Compute the sample mean and standard deviation as follows:

[tex]\bar x=\frac{1}{n}\sum x=\frac{1}{30}\times 51702=1723.4\\\\s=\sqrt{\frac{1}{n-1}\sum (x-\bar x)^{2}}=\sqrt{\frac{1}{30-1}\times 232561.2}=89.55[/tex]

Construct a 95% confidence interval estimate for the population mean force as follows:

[tex]CI=\bar x\pm z_{\alpha /2}\times\frac{s}{\sqrt{n}}[/tex]

    [tex]=1723.4\pm 1.96\times\frac{89.55}{\sqrt{30}}\\\\=1723.4\pm 32.045\\\\=(1691.355, 1755.445)\\\\\approx (1691, 1755)[/tex]

Thus, the 95% confidence interval estimate for the population mean force is (1691, 1755).

Joey would like to apply for a loan but knows that his high debt-to-income (DTI) ratio will probably get in his way
He would like to lower his DTI ratio by lowering the amount of his gross monthly income that goes to living
expenses.
Joey's current monthly expenses include a rent payment of $1,100, a $178 car payment, and a combined minimum
payment of $220 for his credit card debt. His current gross monthly income is $3,600. If Joey moves to a new

d. $960

C

Answers

Answer:

$898

Step-by-step explanation:

Based on Joey's debt-to-income ratio, the maximum monthly rent payment he can make and still maintain the DTI ratio is b. $898.

Monthly debt maximum payment

Joey has a DTI ratio of 36% which means that his maximum debt payment should be 36% of his income. This amount would be:

= DTI x monthly income

= 36% x 3,600

= $1,296

Maximum monthly rent

This can be found as:

= Maximum monthly debt payment - Car payment - Credit card payment

= 1,296 - 178 - 220

= $898

In conclusion, option B is correct.

Every rope has a safe working load. A rope should not be used to lift a weight greater than its safe working load. The table shows the safe working loads S (in pounds) for ropes with circumference C (in inches). Write an equation for the safe working load for a rope. Find the safe working load for a rope that has a circumference of 10 inches.

Answers

9514 1404 393

Answer:

S = 180C²18,000 lbs

Step-by-step explanation:

Assuming the table attached with C in inches and S in pounds, we see that the first differences in S are ...

  180, 540, 900

These are not constant, so the relation is not linear.

Second differences are ...

  360, 360

These are constant, so the relation is quadratic. With a short trial, we find that a suitable equation is ...

  S = 180·C²

__

The safe load for C=10 is then ...

  S = 180·10² = 18,000 . . . pounds

A machine made 4 1/2 pencils in 3 1/3 minutes. How many pencils did the machine make in one minute?

Answers

Given parameters:

Number of pencils = [tex]4\frac{1}{2}[/tex] pencils

Time taken = [tex]3\frac{1}{3}[/tex] minutes

Unknown:

Number of pencils produced in 1 minute;

Solution:

To solve this problem, let us first find the rate of the machine;

       Rate of machine = [tex]\frac{number of pencils }{time taken}[/tex]

       Rate of machine = [tex]\frac{\frac{9}{2} }{\frac{10}{3} }[/tex]   = [tex]\frac{9}{2} x \frac{3}{10}[/tex]   = [tex]\frac{27}{20}[/tex] pencils/minute

Now, number of pencils produces in 1 minute;

            Number of pencils  = rate of machine x time taken

             Number of pencils = [tex]\frac{27}{20}[/tex]  pencils/ min x 1 min

             Number of pencils = [tex]\frac{27}{20}[/tex]pencils

The number of pencils produced in 1 minute is [tex]\frac{27}{20}[/tex]

Using trigonometry:

Let's take Tan of 60 degrees:

Tan 60 degrees = Opposite / adjacent

We can see that the opposite side is 3√3 and the adjacent side is x

Tan 60 degrees = 3√3 / x

From the trigonometric table, we know that Tan 60 degrees is √3

√3 = 3√3 / x

x = 3√3 / √3

x = 3

Now, we will take Sin of 60 degrees

Sin 60 degrees = Opposite / Hypotenuse

We can see that the opposite side is 3√3 and the hypotenuse is y

Sin 60 degrees = 3√3 / y

From the trigonometric table, we know that Sin 60 degrees is √3 / 2

√3/2 = 3√3 / y

y = 3√3 / (√3/2)

y = 3√3 * 2/√3

y = 6

Therefore, y = 6 and x = 3

Answer:

1. m = -2  

2. g = 7  

3. y = 13      

4. a = -36  

5. x = 15

6.  w = -18                                                                                                                                            

Step-by-step explanation:

1. Make the constant to the right-hand side and change its sign

a = 10 - 12

Calculate the difference a = -2

Solution

a = -2

2. Move variable to the left-hand side and change its sign

-g - 2 = - 9

Move constant to the right-hand side and change its sign

-g = -9 + 2

Calculate the sum

-g = -7

Change the signs on both sides of the equation

g = 7

Solution

g = 7

3. Divide both sides of the equation by - 7

-7y ÷ (-7) = -91 ÷(-7)

Any expression divided by itself equals 1

y = 91 ÷ (-7)

Divide two negatives equals a positive: (-) ÷(-)=(+)

y = 91 ÷ 7

Calculate the quotient

y = 13

Solution

y = 13

4. Multiply both sides of the equation by 9

9 x a/9 = 9 x (-4)

Reduce the number with the greatest common factor 9

a = 9 x (-4)

Multiply a positive and a negative equals a negative: (+)x(-)=(-)

a = -9 x 4

Multiply the numbers

a = -36

Solution

a = -36

5. Multiply both sides of the equation by 3/2

3/2 × 2/3x =  3/2 × 10

Reduce the numbers with the greatest common factor 3

1/2 × 2x = 3/2 × 10

Reduce the numbers with the greatest common factor 2

x = 3/2 × 10

Reduce the numbers with the greatest common factor 2

x = 3 x 5

Multiply the numbers

x = 15

Solution

x = 15

6. Multiply both sides of the equation by 9/4

9/4 x 4/9w = 9/4 x (-8)

Reduce the numbers with the greatest common factor 9

1/4 x 4w = 9/4 x (-8)

Reduce the numbers with the greatest common factor 4

w = 9/4 x (-8)

multiplying a positive and a negative equals and negative: (+)x(-)=(-)

w = -9/4 x 8

Reduce the numbers with the greatest common factor 4

w = -9 x 2

Multiply the numbers

w = -18

Solution

w = -18

Answer:

Yes

Step-by-step explanation:

They are equivalent because if you write the ratio's out, you get 120:2 and 360:6. If you then simplify both, you get 60:1. To simplify these, you need to find a common factor. In 120:2, you can tell that both numbers can be divided by two because they are both even. After dividing, you get 60:1. In 360:6, you can tell that both numbers can be divided by 6 since they both are multiples of 6. After dividing, you get 60:1. Because these to ratio's are equal, they are equivalent.
