Answers

Answer 1

Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:

Given that:

Mean = 3.34

sample size = 26

sample mean = 2.7

standard deviation = 1.17

level of significance = 0.10

The null hypothesis and the alternative hypothesis can be computed as follows:

[tex]\mathtt{H_o: \mu \geq 3.34} \\ \\ \mathtt{H_1: \mu < 3.34}[/tex]

degree of freedom = n - 1

degree of freedom = 26 -1

degree of freedom =  25

level of significance = 0.10

Since the alternative hypothesis contains <, then the test is left tailed

[tex]\mathtt{t_{\alpha, df} = t_{0.10, 25}}[/tex]

[tex]\mathtt{t_{0.10, 25}}[/tex] = - 1.316

The rejection region therefore consist of all values smaller than - 1.316, therefore ; reject [tex]H_o[/tex] if t < -1.316

The test statistics can be computed as follows:

[tex]t = \dfrac{X - \mu}{\dfrac{\sigma}{\sqrt{n}}}[/tex]

[tex]t = \dfrac{2.7 - 3.34}{\dfrac{1.17}{\sqrt{26}}}[/tex]

[tex]t = \dfrac{-0.64}{\dfrac{1.17}{5.099}}[/tex]

t = - 2.789

Decision Rule:  To reject the null hypothesis if the t test lies in the rejection region or less than the rejection region.

Conclusion: We  reject the null hypothesis since t = (- 2.789) < -1.316. Then we conclude that  the mean number of residents in the retirement community household is less than 3.34 persons.

If f(x)=ax+b and f(2)=1 and f(-3)=11, what is the value of A?

Answers

Answer:

a = -2

Step-by-step explanation:

f(x)=ax+b

f(2)=1  

f(-3)=11

f(2) = 1   means   2a+b =1

f(-3)=11   means   -3a + b = 11

Subtracting the two equations

-(-3a +b =11) becomes 3a -b = -11   so we can add

2a+b =1

3a - b = -11

----------------------

5a = -10

Divide by 5

5a/5 = -10/5

a=-2

Suppose you earn 2% cash back at grocery stores and 1% on all other purchases. If you spent $485.72 at the grocery store and $671.28 on all other purchases, how much would your cash back be?

Answers

Answer:

$16.43.

Step-by-step explanation:

At the grocery store, you spent $485.72. With 2% cashback, you would get 485.72 * 0.02 = 9.7144 dollars worth of cashback.

At other places, you spend $671.28. With 1% cashback, you would get 671.28 * 0.01 = 6.7128 dollars worth of cashback.

9.7144 + 6.7128 = 16.4272, which is about $16.43 of cashback.

Answer:a

b

  The  margin of error will increase

c

The  margin of error will decreases

d

The 99% confidence interval is  [tex]0.4107 < p < 0.4293[/tex]

Step-by-step explanation:

From the question we are  told that

   The sample size  [tex]n = 19[/tex]

    The sample mean is  [tex]\= x = \$\ 390[/tex]

    The  standard deviation is  [tex]\sigma = \$ \ 120[/tex]

 

Given that the confidence level is  95% then the level of significance is mathematically represented as

           [tex]\alpha = 100 - 95[/tex]

          [tex]\alpha = 5 \%[/tex]

          [tex]\alpha = 0.05[/tex]

Next we obtain the critical value of [tex]\frac{\alpha }{2}[/tex] from the normal distribution table

    So  

         [tex]Z_{\frac{\alpha }{2} } = 1.96[/tex]

The  margin of error is mathematically represented as

      [tex]E = Z_{\frac{\alpha }{2} } * \frac{\sigma}{\sqrt{n} }[/tex]

=>    [tex]E = 1.96 * \frac{120}{\sqrt{19} }[/tex]

=>   [tex]E = 53.96[/tex]

The 95% confidence interval is  

     [tex]\= x - E < \mu < \= x + E[/tex]

=>   [tex]390 - 53.96 < \mu < 390 - 53.96[/tex]

=>  [tex]336.04 < \mu < 443.96[/tex]

When the confidence level increases the [tex]Z_{\frac{\alpha }{2} }[/tex] also increases which increases the margin of error hence the confidence level becomes wider

Generally the sample size mathematically varies with margin of error as follows

         [tex]n \ \ \alpha \ \ \frac{1}{E^2 }[/tex]

So if the sample size increases the margin of error decrease

The  sample proportion is mathematically represented as

       [tex]\r p = \frac{210}{500}[/tex]

       [tex]\r p = 0.42[/tex]

Given that the confidence level is 0.99 the level of significance is  [tex]\alpha = 0.01[/tex]

The critical value of [tex]\frac{\alpha }{2}[/tex] from the normal distribution table is  

      [tex]Z_{\frac{\alpha }{2} } = 2.58[/tex]

  Generally the margin of error is mathematically represented as

       [tex]E = Z_{\frac{\alpha }{2} }* \sqrt{ \frac{\r p (1- \r p )}{n} }[/tex]

=>   [tex]E = 0.42 * \sqrt{ \frac{0.42 (1- 0.42 )}{ 500} }[/tex]

=>     [tex]E = 0.0093[/tex]

The 99% confidence interval  is

     [tex]\r p - E < p < \r p + E[/tex]

     [tex]0.42 - 0.0093 < p < 0.42 + 0.0093[/tex]

     [tex]0.4107 < p < 0.4293[/tex]

Find the probability that when a couple has four ​children, at least one of them is a boy. ​(Assume that boys and girls are equally​ likely.)

Answers

Answer:

The probability that at least, one of the four children the couple has is a boy is 0.8.

Step-by-step explanation:

Given that boys and girls are equally likely, we want to find the probability of having at least, one boy, from four children..

Note that it is possible to have the following for 4 children:

1. 4 boys, 0 girls

2. 3 boys, 1 girl

3. 2 boys, 2 girls

4. 1 boy, 3 girls

5. 0 boys, 4 girls.

To have at least, one boy, out of the 5 options, only 4 is possible.

1. 4 boys, 0 girls.........YES

2. 3 boys, 1 girl ...........YES

3. 2 boys, 2 girls.........YES

4. 1 boy, 3 girls.............YES

5. 0 boys, 4 girls..........NO

The probability is therefore,

(Probability of event = 4) ÷ (Total possible outcome = 5)

P = 4/5 = 0.8

At a baby shower, 15 guests are in attendance and 4 of them are randomly selected to receive a door prize. If all 4 prizes are identical, in how many ways can the prizes be awarded?

Answers

Answer:

1365

Step-by-step explanation:

We figure out combinations using this formula:    n!

                                                                              r!(n-r)!

n=15

r=4

So n!= 15x14x13x12x11x0x9x8x7x6x5x4x3x2x1

r! = 4x3x2x1 times 15-4!, which is 11! = 11x10x9x8x7x6x5x4x3x2x1

Put this together and you have 15x14x13x12/4x3x2x1=

There are 1365 different ways to award the 4 door prizes to 4 guests from a group of 15 guests.

What are the Combinations?

Combinations are the procedures used in mathematics to pick k things from n different items without replacement.

The following formula computes the combinations of k items from n:

(n, k) = n! / k!×(n-k)!

The number of ways to award the 4 door prizes to 4 guests out of a group of 15 guests is a combinatorial problem that can be calculated using the formula.

Here, n = 15 (the total number of guests) and k = 4 (the number of prizes to be awarded).

So, the number of ways to award the prizes is:

C(15, 4) = 15! / (4! (15 - 4)!)

= 15! / (4! 11!)

= 15 x 14 x 13 x 12 / (4 x 3 x 2 x 1)

= 1365.

Therefore, there are 1365 different ways to award the 4 door prizes to 4 guests from a group of 15 guests.

A. -3/2

B. 3/2

C. 2/3

D. -2/3

Answers

Answer:

2/3

Step-by-step explanation:

We can find the slope using the slope formula

m = ( y2-y1)/(x2-x1)

   = (1- -7)/(9 - -3)

   = ( 1+7)/( 9+3)

   = 8/12

Simplifying

   = 2/3

Answer:

C. 2/3

Step-by-step explanation:

You can use the equation: [tex]y_{2} - y_{1}/x_{2} - x_{1}[/tex] to find the slope.

y2 is equal to the y coordinate of the second point: 1

y1 is equal to the y coordinate of the first point: -7

x2 is equal to the x coordinate of the second point: 9

x1 is equal to the x coordinate of the first point: -3

So if you plug these values into the equation, you will get:

1 - (-7)/ 9- (-3)

= 1 + 7/ 9 + 3

= 8/12

= 2/3

Find the minimum sample size needed to estimate the percentage of Democrats who have a sibling. Use a 0.1 margin of error, use a confidence level of 98%, and use the results from a prior Harris poll that gave a confidence interval of (0.44, 0.51) for the proportion of Democrats who have a sibling.

Answers

Answer:

The minimum sample size is  [tex]n =135[/tex]

Step-by-step explanation:

From the question we are told that

   The confidence interval is [tex]( lower \ limit = \ 0.44,\ \ \ upper \ limit = \ 0.51)[/tex]

    The margin of error is  [tex]E = 0.1[/tex]

   

Generally the sample  proportion can be mathematically evaluated as

     [tex]\r p = \frac{ upper \ limit + lower \ limit }{2}[/tex]

    [tex]\r p = \frac{ 0.51 + 0.44}{2}[/tex]

    [tex]\r p = 0.475[/tex]

Given that the confidence level is  98% then the level of significance can be mathematically evaluated as

         [tex]\alpha = 100 - 98[/tex]

        [tex]\alpha = 2\%[/tex]

        [tex]\alpha =0.02[/tex]

Next we obtain the critical value of  [tex]\frac{\alpha }{2}[/tex] from the normal distribution table  

   The value is

        [tex]Z_{\frac{\alpha }{2} } = 2.33[/tex]

Generally the minimum sample size is evaluated as

      [tex]n =[ \frac { Z_{\frac{\alpha }{2} }}{E} ]^2 * \r p (1- \r p )[/tex]

     [tex]n =[ \frac { 2.33}{0.1} ]^2 * 0.475(1- 0.475 )[/tex]

If you have $100 in a savings account earning 3% interest per year, how much will you have in
two years?

Answers

Answer:

$106

Step-by-step explanation:

You have 100$ in savings account

Interest rate =3%

Time = 2 years

Total in 2 years:

100 + 2*3% = 100 *1.06= $106

The interest formula is as follows:

Amount Invested · Rate = Interest Earned

If we invest $100 at 3% interest per year,

how much do we earn that year?

Well based on our formula, we can simply multiply 100 · 3%.

Think of the 3% as 3/100.

So we have 100 · 3/100 and the 100's cancel and we're left with 3.

So $3 is earned in 1 year.

So after two years, you will have double that or $6.

A piece of buttered toast falls to the floor 17 times. The toast landed buttered side up 6 times. What is the probability that the toast lands buttered side down?

Answers

Step-by-step explanation:

Given that,

A piece of buttered toast falls to the floor 17 times. The toast landed buttered side up 6 times.

It means that the total number of outcomes are 17

We need to find the probability that the toast lands buttered side down. Favourable oucome is 17-6 = 11

So, probability is given by :

[tex]P(E)=\dfrac{\text{favourable outcomes}}{\text{total no of outcomes}}[/tex]

[tex]P(E)=\dfrac{11}{17}[/tex]

So, the  probability that the toast lands buttered side down is 11/17.

In a survey of 15000 students of different schools, 40% of them were found to have tuition before the see examination. Among them 50% studied only mathematics ,30% only science and 10% studied others subject. how many student studied mathematics as well as science. ​

Answers

Answer: 600 students.

Step-by-step explanation:

Ok, we start with 15,000 students.

40% of them had tuition, so the actual number of them that had tuition is:

Now we want to find the number of students that studied math and science.

50% only studied math,

30% only studied science

10% studied other subjects.

So 50% + 30% + 10% did NOT studied both math and science

90% is the percentage that did not study math and mathematics as well as science, then the other 10% did.

Then, out of the 6,000 students that had tuition, 10% studied math and science, the total number is:

6,000*0.10 = 600

Step-by-step explanation:

Given the expression [tex]\frac{5x-4}{x(x^2+7)^2}[/tex], we are to re-write the expression in form of a partial fraction.

Before we write in form of a partial fraction, we need to note the expression at the denominator. Since the expression in parenthesis is a quadratic equation, the equivalent numerator must be a linear expression.

Also the quadratic equation is a repeated form since it is squared. This means that we are to repeat the quadratic equation twice when writing as a partial fraction.

[tex]\frac{5x-4}{x(x^2+7)^2} = \frac{A}{x} + \frac{Bx+C}{x^2+7} + \frac{Dx+E}{(x^2+7)^2}[/tex]

From the above partial fraction, it can be seen that x² + 7 in parenthesis was repeated twice and their equivalent expressions at the numerator are  both linear i.e Bx+E and Dx+ E where A, B, C, D and E are the unknown constant.

Step-by-step explanation:

4.5 hours = 4 hrs and 30 mins

8.75 hrs = 8 hrs and 45 mins

9.5 hrs = 9 hrs and 30 mins

10 hrs = 10 hrs and 0 min

4.25 hrs = 4 hrs and 15 mins

(30 + 45 + 30 + 15) mins = 2 hrs

Therefore, total hours Sam worked = (4 + 8 + 9 + 10 + 4 + 2) hrs = 37 hours

PLZ answer quick i will give brainliest if right no explanation needed Joe is responsible for reserving hotel rooms for a company trip. His company changes plans and increases how many people are going on the trip, so they need at least 50 total rooms. Joe had already reserved and paid for 161616 rooms, so he needs to reserve additional rooms. He can only reserve rooms in blocks, and each block contains 8 rooms and costs $900. Let B represent the number of additional blocks that Joe reserves. 1) Which inequality describes this scenario? Choose 1 answer: a: 16+8B≤50 b: 16+8B≥50 c: 16+B≤50 d: 16+B≥50 2) What is the least amount of additional money Joe can spend to get the rooms they need?

Answers

Answer:

16 + 8b ≥ 50

4500

Step-by-step explanation:

He needs at least 50 rooms and has already reserved 16

They are in groups of 8

16 + 8b ≥ 50

Subtract 16 from each side

16+8b-16 ≥ 50 -16

8b≥ 34

Divide by 6

8b/8 ≥ 34/8

b≥ 4.25

We need to round up since we need at least 50

b = 5 since we want the least amount of rooms

Each block is 900

5*900 = 4500 more that he will have to spend

7.19 We are given the following probability distribution. x P(x) b. c. d. 0 1 2 3 .1 .4 .3 .2 a. Calculate the mean, variance, and standard deviation.

Answers

Answer:

Mean = 1.6

Variance = 0.84

Standard deviation = 0.916

Step-by-step explanation:

We are given the following probability distribution below;

            X                         P(X)              [tex]X \times P(X)[/tex]         [tex]X^{2} \times P(X)[/tex]

            0                          0.1                     0                        0

            1                           0.4                   0.4                     0.4

            2                          0.3                   0.6                     1.2

            3                          0.2                  0.6                    1.8      

         Total                                               1.6                    3.4    

Now, the mean of the probability distribution is given by;

         Mean, E(X) =  [tex]\sum X \times P(X)[/tex]  = 1.6

Also, the variance of the probability distribution is given by;

        Variance, V(X) =  [tex]\sum X^{2} \times P(X) - (\sum X \times P(X))^{2}[/tex]

                                 =  [tex]3.4 - (1.6)^{2}[/tex]

                                 =  3.4 - 2.56 = 0.84

And the standard deviation of the probability distribution is given by;

          Standard deviation, S.D. (X) =  [tex]\sqrt{Variance}[/tex]

                                                         =  [tex]\sqrt{0.84}[/tex]  = 0.916.

Jullian measures the distance he drives to work each day using the odometer on his car, which measures distance in miles, accurate to the nearest tenth of a mile. Using that measurement, he claims that the exact distance he drives to work is 11.7 miles. Use complete sentences to explain why jullian is incorrect

Answers

Answer:

Kindly check explanation

Step-by-step explanation: Jullian's claim that the distance she drives to work is exactly 11.7miles is incorrect because, in other to record or get the exact result of a certain calculation such as Jullian's Distance, the value of the distance obtained will not be approximated or rounded. In this scenario, Distance was to the nearest tenth of a mile, thereby altering the true outcome of the calculation.

The word exact means that what is stated is very precise and does not fall below or above in any respect. However, a number whose accuracy is to the nearest tenth of a mile, violates this assertion.

This has been caused by underperformance of the pension fund itself and the over promising of benefits to retirees. Take the following example:_______. Assume $20m was invested today to provide for pension payments for a group of employees. Assume also that the average return on these funds was 8.5% 1. How big will the fund be in 25 years? 2. Suppose at year 12 the fund decreased in value by 30%. What returns would be required for the next 13 years to achieve the 25 year amount? 3. Advisor's counseled the company that a conservative investment return of 6% annually for the next 13 years would be advisable and that the company would have to contribute annually to make up the shortfall.
