The next three questions refer to the following information:

In a survey at Kirkwood Ski Resort the following information was recorded:

 0 – 10 11 - 20 21 - 40 40+ Ski 10 12 30 8 Snowboard 6 17 12 5

Suppose that one person from of the above was randomly selected.

Find the probability that the person was a skier or was age 11 – 20.

$\frac{\text{77}}{\text{100}}$

Find the probability that the person was a snowboarder given he/she was age 21 – 40.

$\frac{\text{12}}{\text{42}}$

Explain which of the following are true and which are false.

• Sport and Age are independent events.
• Ski and age 11 – 20 are mutually exclusive events.
• $P\left(\text{Ski}\phantom{\rule{2pt}{0ex}}\text{and}\phantom{\rule{2pt}{0ex}}\text{age}\phantom{\rule{2pt}{0ex}}\text{21}-\text{40}\right)
• $P\left(\text{Snowboard}\phantom{\rule{2pt}{0ex}}\text{or}\phantom{\rule{2pt}{0ex}}\text{age}\phantom{\rule{2pt}{0ex}}0-\text{10}\right)
• False
• False
• True
• False

The average length of time a person with a broken leg wears a cast is approximately 6 weeks. The standard deviation is about 3 weeks. Thirty people who had recently healed from broken legs were interviewed. State the distribution that most accurately reflects total time to heal for the thirty people.

$N\left(\text{180},\text{16}\text{.}\text{43}\right)$

The distribution for $X$ is Uniform. What can we say for certain about the distribution for $\overline{X}$ when $n=1$ ?

• The distribution for $\overline{X}$ is still Uniform with the same mean and standard dev. as the distribution for $X$ .
• The distribution for $\overline{X}$ is Normal with the different mean and a different standard deviation as the distribution for $X$ .
• The distribution for $\overline{X}$ is Normal with the same mean but a larger standard deviation than the distribution for $X$ .
• The distribution for $\overline{X}$ is Normal with the same mean but a smaller standard deviation than the distribution for $X$ .

A

The distribution for $X$ is uniform. What can we say for certain about the distribution for $\sum X$ when $n=50$ ?

• The distribution for $\sum X$ is still uniform with the same mean and standard deviation as the distribution for $X$ .
• The distribution for $\sum X$ is Normal with the same mean but a larger standard deviation as the distribution for $X$ .
• The distribution for $\sum X$ is Normal with a larger mean and a larger standard deviation than the distribution for $X$ .
• The distribution for $\sum X$ is Normal with the same mean but a smaller standard deviation than the distribution for $X$ .

The next three questions refer to the following information:

A group of students measured the lengths of all the carrots in a five-pound bag of baby carrots. They calculated the average length of baby carrots to be 2.0 inches with a standard deviation of 0.25 inches. Suppose we randomly survey 16 five-pound bags of baby carrots.

State the approximate distribution for $\overline{X}$ , the distribution for the average lengths of baby carrots in 16 five-pound bags. $\overline{X}\text{~}$

$N\left(2\text{,}\frac{\text{.25}}{\sqrt{\text{16}}}\right)$

Explain why we cannot find the probability that one individual randomly chosen carrot is greater than 2.25 inches.

Find the probability that $\overline{x}$ is between 2 and 2.25 inches.

0.5000

The next three questions refer to the following information:

At the beginning of the term, the amount of time a student waits in line at the campus store is normally distributed with a mean of 5 minutes and a standard deviation of 2 minutes.

Find the 90th percentile of waiting time in minutes.

7.6

Find the median waiting time for one student.

5

Find the probability that the average waiting time for 40 students is at least 4.5 minutes.

what is fullerene does it is used to make bukky balls
are you nano engineer ?
s.
fullerene is a bucky ball aka Carbon 60 molecule. It was name by the architect Fuller. He design the geodesic dome. it resembles a soccer ball.
Tarell
what is the actual application of fullerenes nowadays?
Damian
That is a great question Damian. best way to answer that question is to Google it. there are hundreds of applications for buck minister fullerenes, from medical to aerospace. you can also find plenty of research papers that will give you great detail on the potential applications of fullerenes.
Tarell
what is the Synthesis, properties,and applications of carbon nano chemistry
Mostly, they use nano carbon for electronics and for materials to be strengthened.
Virgil
is Bucky paper clear?
CYNTHIA
carbon nanotubes has various application in fuel cells membrane, current research on cancer drug,and in electronics MEMS and NEMS etc
NANO
so some one know about replacing silicon atom with phosphorous in semiconductors device?
Yeah, it is a pain to say the least. You basically have to heat the substarte up to around 1000 degrees celcius then pass phosphene gas over top of it, which is explosive and toxic by the way, under very low pressure.
Harper
Do you know which machine is used to that process?
