A company wants to estimate, at a 95% confidence level, the proportion of all families who own its product. A preliminary sample showed that 30.0% of the families in this sample own this company's product. The sample size that would limit the margin of error to be within 0.047 of the population proportion is:

Answers

Answer 1

Answer:

The sample size is of 366.

Step-by-step explanation:

In a sample with a number n of people surveyed with a probability of a success of [tex]\pi[/tex], and a confidence level of [tex]1-\alpha[/tex], we have the following confidence interval of proportions.

[tex]\pi \pm z\sqrt{\frac{\pi(1-\pi)}{n}}[/tex]

In which

z is the z-score that has a p-value of [tex]1 - \frac{\alpha}{2}[/tex].

The margin of error is of:

[tex]M = z\sqrt{\frac{\pi(1-\pi)}{n}}[/tex]

A preliminary sample showed that 30.0% of the families in this sample own this company's product.

This means that [tex]\pi = 0.3[/tex]

95% confidence level

So [tex]\alpha = 0.05[/tex], z is the value of Z that has a p-value of [tex]1 - \frac{0.05}{2} = 0.975[/tex], so [tex]Z = 1.96[/tex].

The sample size that would limit the margin of error to be within 0.047 of the population proportion is:

This is n for which [tex]M = 0.047[/tex]. So

[tex]M = z\sqrt{\frac{\pi(1-\pi)}{n}}[/tex]

[tex]0.047 = 1.96\sqrt{\frac{0.3*0.7}{n}}[/tex]

[tex]0.047\sqrt{n} = 1.96\sqrt{0.3*0.7}[/tex]

[tex]\sqrt{n} = \frac{1.96\sqrt{0.3*0.7}}{0.047}[/tex]

[tex](\sqrt{n})^2 = (\frac{1.96\sqrt{0.3*0.7}}{0.047})^2[/tex]

[tex]n = 365.2[/tex]

Rounding up:

The sample size is of 366.

Answer:

1.) We don't reject the null

2.) We reject the Null

3.) We do not reject the null

Step-by-step explanation:

Obtaining p values using test statistic:

Given that ; we have a standardized test statistic and α - values ;

Let's define the decision region :

If Pvalue < α ; Reject H0 ; otherwise, fail to reject H0

A.)

Left tail , Z = - 1.32 ; α = 0.10

We can use the Pvalue calculator from Z score :

Pvalue = 0.934

Pvalue > α ; Hence, we fail to reject the null, H0

B.)

Right-tailed test, z = 2.46, α = 0.01

Pvalue from Zscore calculator ;

Pvalue = 0.0069

Pvalue < α ; Hence, we reject the null, H0

C.)

Two-tailed test, z = -1.68, α = 0.05

Pvalue from Zscore calculator ;

Pvalue = 0.093

Pvalue > α ; Hence, we fail to reject the null, H0

Jesse takes two data points from the weight and feed cost data set to calculate a slope, or average rate of change. A hamster weighs half a pound and costs $2 per week to feed, while a Labrador Retriever weighs 62.5 pounds and costs $10 per week to feed. Using weight as the explanatory variable, what is the slope of a line between these two points? Answer choices are rounded to the nearest hundredth.
a. $0.13 / Ib.
b. $4.00 / Ib
c. $6.25 / Ib.
d. $7.75 / Ib.

Answers

Answer:

a. $0.13 / Ib.

Step-by-step explanation:

Slope of a line:

Suppose we have two data-points in a line. The slope is given by the change in the output divided by the change in the output.

In this question:

Input: weight(in pounds)

Output: Weekly cost to feed.

A hamster weighs half a pound and costs $2 per week to feed, while a Labrador Retriever weighs 62.5 pounds and costs $10 per week to feed.

Inputs: 0.5, 62.5

Outputs: 2, 10

Change in the outputs: 10 - 2 = 8

Change in the inputs: 62.5 - 0.5 = 62

Slope: [tex]m = \frac{8}{62} = 0.13[/tex]

Find the first three terms of the Maclaurin series for f(x) =
[tex]{e}^{ \frac{x}{2} } [/tex]

Answers

Step-by-step explanation:

Starting out with the Taylor series,

[tex]\displaystyle f(x) = \sum_{n=0}^{\infty} \dfrac{f^{(n)}(a)}{n!}(x-a)^n[/tex]

where [tex]f^{(n)}[/tex] is the nth derivative of f(x) and if we set a = 0, we get the special case of the Taylor series called the Maclaurin series:

[tex]\displaystyle f(x) = \sum_{n=0}^{\infty} \dfrac{f^{(n)}(0)}{n!}x^n[/tex]

Expanding this series up to the 1st 3 terms at a = 0,

[tex]f(x) = f(0) + \dfrac{f'(0)}{1!}x + \dfrac{f''(0)}{2!}x^2[/tex]

Let's find the derivatives of [tex]e^{\frac{x}{2}}[/tex]:

[tex]f'(x) = \frac{d}{dx} (e^{\frac{x}{2}}) = \frac{1}{2}e^{\frac{x}{2}} \Rightarrow f'(0) = \frac{1}{2}[/tex]

[tex]f''(x) = \frac{1}{4}e^{\frac{x}{2}} \Rightarrow f''(0) = \frac{1}{4}[/tex]

We can now write the Maclaurin series for [tex]e^{\frac{x}{2}}[/tex]as

[tex]e^{\frac{x}{2}} = 1 + \frac{1}{2} x + \frac{1}{8} x^2[/tex]

Assume that you purchased a new car today and financed $55,000 of the price on a 72-month payment contract with a nominal rate of 6.00%. Further, assume that you plan on paying off the balance of the car loan after you make your 48th payment. How much will your loan balance be when you pay off the car?

Answers

Answer:

The amount that your loan balance will be when you pay off the car is $20,566.18.

Step-by-step explanation:

Step 1. Calculation of monthly payment

This can be calculated using the formula for calculating the present value of an ordinary annuity as follows:

PV = P * ((1 - (1 / (1 + r))^n) / r) …………………………………. (1)

Where;

PV = Present value or the cost of the new car = $55,000

P = Monthly payment = ?

r = Monthly nominal rate = Nominal rate / 12 = 6% / 12 = 0.06 / 12 = 0.005

n = number of months = 72

Substitute the values into equation (1) and solve for P, we have:

$55,000 = P * ((1 - (1 / (1 + 0.005))^72) / 0.005)

$55,000 = P * 60.3395139355201

P = $55,000 / 60.3395139355201 = $911.51

Step 2. Calculation of the loan amount balance when you pay off the car

This can be calculated using the ballon payment formula as follows:

P = (PV - (Ballon / (1 + r)^n)) * (r / (1 – (1 + r)^-n)) ...................... (1)

Where:

P = Monthly payment = $911.51

PV = Present value or the cost of the new car = $55,000

Ballon = Ballon payment or the loan amount balance when you pay off the car = ?

r = Monthly nominal rate = Nominal rate / 12 = 6% / 12 = 0.06 / 12 = 0.005

n = number months to pay off the loan amount balance = 48

Substituting the values into equation (1) and solve for Ballon, we have:

911.51 = (55,000 - (Ballon / (1 + 0.005)^48)) * (0.005 / (1 - (1 + 0.005)^-48))

911.51 = (55,000 - (Ballon / 1.27048916109538)) * 0.0234850290479363

911.51 / 0.0234850290479363 = 55,000 - (Ballon / 1.27048916109538)

38,812.39 = 55,000 - (Ballon / 1.27048916109538)

Ballon / 1.27048916109538 = 55,000 - 38,812.39

Ballon / 1.27048916109538 = 16,187.61

Ballon = 16,187.61 * 1.27048916109538

Ballon = $20,566.18

Therefore, the amount that your loan balance will be when you pay off the car is $20,566.18.

Substance A decomposes at a rate proportional to the amount of A present. a) Write an equation that gives the amount A left of an initial amount A0 after time t. b) It is found that 8 lb of A will reduce to 4 lb in 4.6 hr After how long will there be only 1 lb left?
a) Choose the equation that gives A in terms of A0, t, and k, where k > 0.
b) There will be 1 lb left after 14 hr (Do not round until the final answer. Then round to the nearest whole number as needed.)

Answers

Answer:

(a) [tex]A = A_0 * e^{kt}[/tex]

(b) There will be 1lb left after 14 hours

Step-by-step explanation:

Solving (a): The equation

Since the substance decomposes at a proportional rate, then it follows the following equation

[tex]A(t) = A_0 * e^{kt}[/tex]

Where

[tex]A_0 \to[/tex] Initial Amount

[tex]k \to[/tex] rate

[tex]t \to[/tex] time

[tex]A(t) \to[/tex] Amount at time t

Solving (b):

We have:

[tex]t = 4.6hr[/tex]

[tex]A_0 = 8[/tex]

[tex]A(4.6) = 4[/tex]

First, we calculate k using:

[tex]A(t) = A_0 * e^{kt}[/tex]

This gives:

[tex]A(4.6) = 8 * e^{k*4.6}[/tex]

Substitute: [tex]A(4.6) = 4[/tex]

[tex]4 = 8 * e^{k*4.6}[/tex]

Divide both sides by 4

[tex]0.5 = e^{k*4.6}[/tex]

Take natural logarithm of both sides

[tex]\ln(0.5) = \ln(e^{k*4.6})[/tex]

This gives:

[tex]-0.6931 = k*4.6[/tex]

Solve for k

[tex]k = \frac{-0.6931}{4.6}[/tex]

[tex]k = -0.1507[/tex]

So, we have:

[tex]A(t) = A_0 * e^{kt}[/tex]

[tex]A(t) = 8e^{-0.1507t}[/tex]

To calculate the time when 1 lb will remain, we have:

[tex]A(t) = 1[/tex]

So, the equation becomes

[tex]1= 8e^{-0.1507t}[/tex]

Divide both sides by 8

[tex]0.125= e^{-0.1507t}[/tex]

Take natural logarithm of both sides

[tex]\ln(0.125)= \ln(e^{-0.1507t})[/tex]

[tex]-2.0794= -0.1507t[/tex]

Solve for t

[tex]t = \frac{-2.0794}{-0.1507}[/tex]

[tex]t = 13.7983[/tex]

[tex]t = 14[/tex] --- approximated
