2. Two researchers, Beth and Frank, ask a random sample of teenagers whether or not they had
been to the movies in the last month. They find that their sample proportion (p) of teens who
said yes was .8 (80%) When they construct a confidence interval based on this sample
proportion, Beth comes up with (.73, 87) while Frank gets (175, 89). Indicate which interval
has to be wrong, and explain your choice. (4 pts)​

Answers

Answer 1

Answer:

Frank's confidence interval, (.75, .89) has to be wrong.

The explanation is presented below.

Step-by-step explanation:

The Confidence Interval for the population proportion is basically an interval of range of values where the true population proportion can be found with a certain level of confidence.

Mathematically,

Confidence Interval = (Sample proportion) ± (Margin of error)

Margin of Error is the width of the confidence interval about the mean.

So, a sample proportion of 80% indicates that Beth's interval of (.73, .87) gives a margin of error of 7%.

Making the lower limit of the interval be

(Sample proportion) - (Margin of error) = 80 - 7 = 73%

Upper limit of the interval = (Sample proportion) + (Margin of error) = 80 + 7 = 87%

Hence, this confidence interval is plausible for the survey carried out.

But Frank's interval of (.75, .89) doesn't work with the definition of a confidence interval given above. The range has to be equally spread around the mean with (lower limit, upper limit). The lower limit cannot be 75 and the upper limit 89.

If the lower limit is truly 75, the margin of error has to be (80 - 75), 5%. And the corresponding upper limit should be (80 + 5), 85%.

Frank's interval as (.75, .85) would have been more plausible.

And if the upper limit is truly 89%, the fiitting lower limit, judging by the distance of the upper limit from the sample proportion (89 - 80 = 9%), should be (80 - 9), 71%. Frank's interval as (.71, .89) would also have been more plausible.

Hope this Helps!!!

Step-by-step explanation:

A tire manufacturer has a 60,000 mile warranty for tread life. The manufacturer considers the overall tire quality to be acceptable if less than 5% are worn out at 60,000 miles. The manufacturer tests 250 tires that have been used for 60,000 miles. They find that 9 of them are worn out. With this data, we test the following hypotheses at the 5% significance level. The P-value is 0.15

H0: The proportion of tires that are worn out after 60,000 miles is equal to 0.05.
Ha: The proportion of tires that are worn out after 60,000 miles is less than 0.05.

Which of the following conclusions is correct?

A. Accept H0.
B. Fail to reject H0.
C. Reject H0.

Answers

Answer:

Fail to reject H₀

Step-by-step explanation:

To reject the null hypothesis, the P-value must be less than 0.05.

Since the P-value is 0.15 which is greater than 0.05, we would fail to reject the null hypothesis as there is no sufficient evidence against the null hypothesis.

Thus, the conclusion would be to fail to reject H₀.

Answer:

[tex]t=\frac{\bar x_1- \bar x_2}{\sqrt{\frac{s_1^2}{n_1} +\frac{s_2^2}{n_2} } }[/tex]

Step-by-step explanation:

H0: µ1 – µ2 = 0

HA: µ1 – µ2 ≠ 0

We have given,

The population variances are not known and cannot be assumed equal.

The test statistic for the test is

[tex]t=\frac{\bar x_1- \bar x_2}{\sqrt{\frac{s_1^2}{n_1} +\frac{s_2^2}{n_2} } }[/tex]

Where,

[tex]\bar x_1[/tex] = sample meaan of population 1

[tex]\bar x_2[/tex] = sample mean of population 2

[tex]n_1[/tex] = sample size of population 1

[tex]n_2[/tex] = sample size of population 2

Therefore, this is the test

is (h, k). Comparing to the given equation, we find (h, k) = (3, 11).

The vertex is (3, 11).

What best determines whether a borrower’s interest rate on an adjustable rate loan goes up or down

Answers

Answer:

a market's condition

Step-by-step explanation:

edge 2021

Market conditions best determine whether a borrower’s interest rate on an adjustable rate loan goes up or down.

What is the interest rate?

It is the cost of borrowing money.

Interest rate levels depend on the supply and demand of the money.

Supply and demand are a part of market conditions.

We see that,

An increase in demand for money will increase the interest rate.

A decrease in demand for money will decrease the interest rate.

Conversely,

An increase in the supply of money will decrease the interest rate.

A decrease in the supply of money will increase the interest rate.

Demand and supply are market conditions

Thus market conditions best determine whether a borrower’s interest rate on an adjustable rate loan goes up or down.

The states that dropped out of the Union, became the __________________ States of America 58 POINTS!!!

Answers

Answer:

Confederate

Step-by-step explanation:

During the time that led up to the conflict known as the Civil War of America, the major cause of tension was slavery. Southern plantation owners and farmers fiercely advocated slavery because they helped with the harvest of crops and the overall southern economy. The northerners, however, resisted slavery, saying it was immorally and inhumanely wrong.

At the culmination of this tension, many southern states, led by Jefferson Davis (who later became the "president" of the Confederate states), decided to secede from the Union (break away) and establish their own entity, which they called the "Confederate States of America".

Answers

Answer:

The length of the prism = 3m

See below for explanation

Step-by-step explanation:

The question is incomplete without the diagram stated in the question.

Since the diagram is missing, I'll show you how you can determine the length of a prism.

Volume of prism = length × width × height = l×w×h

Find attached below the diagram used in solving the question.

From the diagram,

height = 7m

Width = 2m

Given that the volume of prism = 42 cubic meters = 42m³

Length of prism = ?

Inserting the values of the variables:

42 = l×2×7

42 = 14×l

l = 42/14

l = 3

The length of the prism = 3m

Verify that 1 + cos 2 theta / 2 cos theta = cos theta is an identity

Answers

Answer and Step-by-step explanation:

We want to verify that (1 + cos(2θ)) / 2cos(θ) = cos(θ).

Let's focus on the left side. Look at cos(2θ). This is an identity, so remember that cos(2θ) = cos²θ - sin²θ. Also, look at the 1. Remember that sin²θ + cos²θ = 1, so plug both of these expressions into our equation:

(1 + cos(2θ)) / 2cos(θ) =? cos(θ)

((sin²θ + cos²θ) + (cos²θ - sin²θ)) / 2cos(θ) =? cos(θ)

2cos²θ / 2cosθ =? cosθ

cosθ = cosθ

Thus, we have proved this is an identity.

Answer:

(1 + cos(2theta))/2cos(theta)

cos(2theta) = 2cos²(theta) - 1

(1 + 2cos²(theta) - 1)/2cos(thetal

2cos²(theta)/2cos(theta)

cos(theta)

Additionally, 12 students liked both mashed and fried potatoes, 5 liked French fries and twice baked potatoes, 6 liked mashed and baked, and 3 liked all three styles. How many students hate potatoes? (4 points)

Answers

Answer:

Totally 6 people hate potatoes

Step-by-step explanation:

Incase the figure is not clear

here, it is

⇒ 30 = 15 + 20 + 9 - 12 - 6 - 5 + 3 + h

⇒ h = 30 - 44 - 3 + 23

⇒ h = 53 - 47

h = 6

Hence, Totally 6 people hate potatoes

Answer: 6 students hate potatoes.

Step-by-step explanation:

The Venn diagram representing the situation is shown in the attached photo.

Set M represents the set of students that like mashed potatoes.

Set F represents the set of students that like French fried potatoes.

Set T represents the set of students that like Twice-baked potatoes.

H represents the number of students that hate potatoes.

3 liked all three styles

The number of students that like mashed and twice baked potatoes only is 6 - 3 = 3

The number of students that like mashed and French fried potatoes only is 12 - 3 = 9

The number of students that like twice baked and French fried potatoes only is 5 - 3 = 2

The number of students that like mashed potatoes only is 15 - (9 + 3 + 3) = 0

The number of students that like French fried potatoes only is 20 - (9 + 3 + 2) = 6

The number of students that like twice baked potatoes only is 9 - (3 + 3 + 2) = 1

Since the total number of students is 30, it means that

0 + 6 + 1 + 3 + 9 + 2 + 3 + H = 30

24 + H = 30

H = 30 - 24

H = 6
