A patient is classified as having gestational diabetes if their average glucose level is above 140 milligrams per deciliter (mg/dl) one hour after a sugary drink is ingested. Rebecca's doctor is concerned that she may suffer from gestational diabetes. There is variation both in the actual glucose level and in the blood test that measures the level. Rebecca's measured glucose level one hour after ingesting the sugary drink varies according to the Normal distribution with μ=140+5 mg/dl and σ=5+1 mg/dl. Using the Central Limit Theorem, determine the probability of Rebecca being diagnosed with gestational diabetes if her glucose level is measured: Once? n=5+2 times n=5+4 times Comment on the relationship between the probabilities observed in (a), (b), and (c). Explain, using concepts from lecture why this occurs and what it means in context.
Data about the sound levels from a new speaker are collected at a manufacturing facility and are used to calculate the model ŷ = 62.4(0.915)x, where x represents the distance from the speaker in meters and ŷ represents the predicted sound level in decibels. Interpret the percent rate of change of the model in the context of the problem. For every increase in one meter from the speaker, the sound level is predicted to decrease by about 91.5%. For every increase in one meter from the speaker, the sound level is predicted to decrease by about 8.5%. For every increase in one meter from the speaker, the sound level is predicted to increase by about 91.5%. For every increase in one meter from the speaker, the sound level is predicted to increase by about 8.5%.
The R2 from a regression of consumption on income is 0.75. Explain how the R2 is calculated and interpret this value.
In a test comparing vinyl and latex laboratory gloves, it was found that 68% of the vinyl gloves leaked (allowing viruses to pass through) but only 6% of the latex gloves leaked. Using the first percentage as the reference value, express the change in two ways, (1) as an absolute difference in terms of percentage points and (2) as a relative difference in terms of a percentage.
In 2000, mobile handset sales totaled $414.99 million. In 2005, the total was $778.75 million. Let M = M(t) denote total mobile handset sales in year t. What was the average rate of change per year in M(t) from 2000 to 2005? (Round your answer to two decimal places.)
Recently there has been a rise in fatal accidents caused by “distracted driving.” The United States National Highway Traffic Safety Administration (NHSTA) defines a distraction as anything that diverts attention from driving. The following model estimates the trend in distracted driving accidents over time based on data from the NHSTA:D = 0.015t - 29.97 In this model, D is the decimal to be turned into a percentage of all fatal accidents caused by distracted driving, and t is any calendar year between 2000 and 2020. Use the model to estimate the rate for 2005 and 2020. Note: this means to plug n 2005 for t and simplify and then turn your answer into a percent. Then plug in 2020 for t and simplify and then turn your answer into a percent.
