Decide whether you can use the normal distribution to approximate the binomial distribution. If you can, use the normal distribution to approximate the indicated probabilities and sketch their graphs. If you cannot, explain why and use the binomial distribution to find the indicated probabilities. Five percent of workers in a city use public transportation to get to work. You randomly select 254 workers and ask them if they use public transportation to get to work. Complete parts (a) through (d).
Can the normal distribution be used to approximate the binomial distribution?
A.
Yes, because both
np greater than or equals≥5
and
nq greater than or equals≥5.
B.
No, because
nq less than<5.
C.
No, because
np less than<5.
(a) Find the probability that exactly
1919
workers will say yes.
What is the indicated probability?
nothing

Sketch the graph of the normal distribution with the indicated probability shaded.
(b) Find the probability that at least
77
workers will say yes.
What is the indicated probability?

The normal distribution cannot be used to approximate the binomial distribution.
(d) A transit authority offers discount rates to companies that have at least
3030
employees who use public transportation to get to work. There are
499499
employees in a company. What is the probability that the company will not get the discount?
Can the normal distribution be used to approximate the binomial distribution?
A.
No, because
npless than<5.
B.
Yes, because both
npgreater than or equals≥5
and
nqgreater than or equals≥5.
C.
No, because
nqless than<5.
What is the probability that the company will not get the discount?
nothing

Finally, you decide to repeat this same procedure to examine salaries among male accountants in your firm. You do not necessarily expect salaries to be larger or smaller than the average. The same large national survey of male accounts found that the average salary was $60,000 with a SD of $5,500. After sampling 55 male accountants in your organization, you find their average salary is $57,000. Use a two-tailed z-test at the 5% level of significance to determine if there is a significant difference between the male national average and male salaries in your company. 9. State alternative hypothesis 10. State null hypothesis 11. List your test statistic 12. Is this difference statistically significant?

M/PF Research, Inc. lists the average monthly apartment rent in some of the most expensive apartment rental locations in the United States. According to their report, the average cost of renting an apartment in Minneapolis is $951. Suppose that the standard deviation of the cost of renting an apartment in Minneapolis is $96 and that apartment rents in Minneapolis are normally distributed. If a Minneapolis apartment is randomly selected, what is the probability that the price is: (Round the values of z to 2 decimal places. Round answers to 4 decimal places.) (a) $980 or more? (b) Between $930 and $1,110? (c) Between $840 and $930? (d) Less than $720?

The epicenter of an earthquake is the point on Earth's surface directly above the earthquakes origin. A seismograph can be used to determine the distance to the epicenter of an earthquake. Seismographs are needed in three different places to locate an earthquake's epicenter. Find the location of the earthquake's epicenter if it is 3 miles away from A(2,3), 4 miles away from B(-5,3), and 5 miles away from C(-1,-2).

denote the lowest vertex degree that occurs in a graph G and
let
λ(G) = min{|K| ∈ Z ≥0 | K ⊆ E(G) is a cutset of G}
denote the edge connectivity of G.
Prove that λ(G) ≤ δ(G)

Prove both of the following theorems in the context of Incidence Geometry. Your proofs should be comparable in terms of rigor and precision (and clarity of thought!) to the ones done in class today.

The first cake has three layers with each one having a different top view: the bottom is a square, the middle is a hexagon, and the top is a circle. The height of each layer may vary. The second cake has three layers with a top view of concentric circles. All three layers have the same height. The diameter of the middle layer is 20% larger than the top layer, and the diameter of the bottom layer is 25% larger than the middle layer.
Your data given is:
length of the side of cake1 square layer = 20
height of cake1 square layer = 1
length of the side of cake1 hexagon layer = 9
height of cake1 hexagon layer = 10
diameter of cake1 circular layer =5
height of cake1 circular layer = 7
diameter of cake2 bottom layer = 68
The ratio of the volume of each layer to the volume of cake1 is 0.1514(square), 0.7966(hexagon), 0.052(cylinder)
Find:
1) The height of cake2
2) The total surface area of cake2
3) The volume of cake2
Answers should be: (I just don't know how toget there)
Second cake:
* total height: 1.047
* surface area: 3815.5796
* volume: 2641.8863
