Acandy maker offers child and adult bags of jelly beans with different color mixes. the company claims that the child mix has 30% red jelly beans, while the adult mix contains 15% red jelly beans. assume that the candy maker’s claim is true. suppose we take a random sample of 50 jelly beans from the child mix and a separate random sample of 100 jelly beans from the adult mix. let ^ p c and ^ p a be the sample proportions of red jelly beans from the child and adult mixes, respectively.

find the probability that the proportion of red jelly beans in the child sample is less than or equal to the proportion of red jelly beans in the adult sample, assuming that the company’s claim is true.

Using the normal distribution and the central limit theorem, it is found that there is a 0.0212 = 2.12% probability that the proportion of red jelly beans in the Child sample is less than or equal to the proportion of red jelly beans in the Adult sample.

Normal Probability Distribution

In a normal distribution with mean $\mu$ and standard deviation $\sigma$ , the z-score of a measure X is given by:

$Z = \frac{X - \mu}{\sigma}$

It 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, which is the percentile of X. By the Central Limit Theorem, for a proportion p in a sample of size n, the mean is $\mu = p$ while the standard error is of $s = \sqrt{\frac{p(1 - p)}{n}}$ When two normal variables are subtracted, the mean is the subtraction of the means, while the standard deviation is the square root of the sum of the variances.

For the Child mix, we have that:

$p_C = 0.3, s_C = \sqrt{\frac{0.3(0.7)}{50}} = 0.0648$

For the Adult mix, we have that:

$p_A = 0.15, s_A = \sqrt{\frac{0.15(0.85)}{100}} = 0.0357$

For the distribution of differences, we have that:

$\mu = p_C - p_A = 0.3 - 0.15 = 0.15$

$s = \sqrt{s_C^2 + s_A^2} = \sqrt{0.0648^2 + 0.0357^2} = 0.074$

The probability that the proportion of red jelly beans in the Child sample is less than or equal to the proportion of red jelly beans in the Adult sample is the p-value of Z when X = 0, hence:

$Z = \frac{X - \mu}{\sigma}$

By the Central Limit Theorem:

$Z = \frac{X - \mu}{s}$

$Z = \frac{0 - 0.15}{0.074}$

Z = -2.03

Z = -2.03 has a p-value of 0.0212.

0.0212 = 2.12% probability that the proportion of red jelly beans in the Child sample is less than or equal to the proportion of red jelly beans in the Adult sample.

Answer from: Quest

the system of inequity is

$y\leq -x+4$

$3y> x$

step-by-step explanation:

from the given graph it is noticed that we have two related lines. one is solid and another is dashed.

if a line passing through two points, then the equation of line is

$y-y_1=\frac{y_2-y_1}{x_2-x_1}(x-x_1)$

the solid line passing through the points (0,4) and (4,0).

$y-4=\frac{0-4}{4-0}(x-0)$

$y=-x+4$

the related equation of solid line is $y=-x+4$ .

similarly, find the related equation of dashed line. the dashed liune passing through the points (0,0) and (3,1).

$y-0=\frac{0-1}{3-0}(x-0)$

$3y=x$

the related equation of dashed line is $3y=x$

from the given graph it is noticed that the point (0,1) lies on the shaded region, therefore the point (0,1) must be satisfied by the related equations.

check the related equations by the point (0,1).

$1=-0+4$

$1=4$

this statement is true if the sign of inequality is < instead of equality. since it is an solid line therefore the sign of inequality will be $\leq$ . the required inequality is

$y\leq -x+4$

similarly, check the second related equation.

$3(1)=0$

it is a dashed line, so this statement is true if the sign of inequality is > . the required inequality is

$3y> x$

15 points write a system of inequalities to represent the shaded portion of the graph

Answer from: Quest

-8/2y-8=5/y+4-7y+8/y^2-16

we move all terms to the left:

-8/2y-8-(5/y+4-7y+8/y^2-16)=0

we can not solve this equation

Airplane speeds are measured in three different ways: (1) indicated speed, (2) true speed, and (3) ground speed. the indicated airspeed is the airspeed given by an instrument called an airspeed indicator. a plane’s indicated airspeed is different from its true airspeed because the indicator is affected by temperature changes and different altitudes of air pressure. the true airspeed is the speed of the airplane relative to the wind. ground speed is the speed of the airplane relative to the ground. for example, a plane flying at a true airspeed of 150 knots into a headwind of 25 knots will have a ground speed of 125 knots. the problems below refer to static and dynamic pressure. static pressure is used when a body is in motion or at rest at a constant speed and direction. dynamic pressure is used when a body in motion changes speed or direction or both. a gauge compares these pressures, giving pilots an indicated airspeed. in problem #s 1 and 2, use the following information. the indicated airspeed s (in knots) of an airplane is given by an airspeed indicator that measures the difference p (in inches of mercury) between the static and dynamic pressures. the relationship between s and p can be modeled by s=136.4p√+4.5. 1. find the differential pressure when the indicated airspeed is 157 knots. 2. find the change in the differential pressure of an airplane that was traveling at 218 knots and slowed down to195 knots. in problem #s 3 and 4, use the following information. the true airspeed t (in knots) of an airplane can be modeled by t=(1+a50,000) ⋅ s, where a is the altitude (in feet) and s is the indicated airspeed (in knots). 3. write the equation for true airspeed t in terms of altitude and differential pressure p. 4. a plane is flying with a true airspeed of 280 knots at an altitude of 20,000 feet. estimate the differential pressure. explain why you think your estimate is correct.
