Answer:
(1) Therefore, a 90% confidence interval for the proportion of Americans who decide to not go to college because they cannot afford it is [0.4348, 0.5252].
(2) We can be 90% confident that the proportion of Americans who choose not to go to college because they cannot afford it is contained within our confidence interval
(3) A survey should include at least 3002 people if we wanted the margin of error for the 90% confidence level to be about 1.5%.
Step-by-step explanation:
We are given that a simple random sample of 331 American adults who do not have a four-year college degree and are not currently enrolled in school, 48% said they decided not to go to college because they could not afford school.
Firstly, the pivotal quantity for finding the confidence interval for the population proportion is given by;
P.Q. = [tex]\frac{\hat p-p}{\sqrt{\frac{\hat p(1-\hat p)}{n} } }[/tex] ~ N(0,1)
where, [tex]\hat p[/tex] = sample proportion of Americans who decide to not go to college = 48%
n = sample of American adults = 331
p = population proportion of Americans who decide to not go to
college because they cannot afford it
Here for constructing a 90% confidence interval we have used a One-sample z-test for proportions.
So, 90% confidence interval for the population proportion, p is ;
P(-1.645 < N(0,1) < 1.645) = 0.90 {As the critical value of z at 5% level
of significance are -1.645 & 1.645}
P(-1.645 < [tex]\frac{\hat p-p}{\sqrt{\frac{\hat p(1-\hat p)}{n} } }[/tex] < 1.645) = 0.90
P( [tex]-1.645 \times {\sqrt{\frac{\hat p(1-\hat p)}{n} } }[/tex] < [tex]\hat p-p[/tex] < [tex]1.645 \times {\sqrt{\frac{\hat p(1-\hat p)}{n} } }[/tex] ) = 0.90
P( [tex]\hat p-1.645 \times {\sqrt{\frac{\hat p(1-\hat p)}{n} } }[/tex] < p < [tex]\hat p+1.645 \times {\sqrt{\frac{\hat p(1-\hat p)}{n} } }[/tex] ) = 0.90
90% confidence interval for p = [ [tex]\hat p-1.645 \times {\sqrt{\frac{\hat p(1-\hat p)}{n} } }[/tex] , [tex]\hat p+1.645 \times {\sqrt{\frac{\hat p(1-\hat p)}{n} } }[/tex] ]
= [ [tex]0.48 -1.96 \times {\sqrt{\frac{0.48(1-0.48)}{331} } }[/tex] , [tex]0.48 +1.96 \times {\sqrt{\frac{0.48(1-0.48)}{331} } }[/tex] ]
= [0.4348, 0.5252]
(1) Therefore, a 90% confidence interval for the proportion of Americans who decide to not go to college because they cannot afford it is [0.4348, 0.5252].
(2) The interpretation of the above confidence interval is that we can be 90% confident that the proportion of Americans who choose not to go to college because they cannot afford it is contained within our confidence interval.
3) Now, it is given that we wanted the margin of error for the 90% confidence level to be about 1.5%.
So, the margin of error = [tex]Z_(_\frac{\alpha}{2}_) \times \sqrt{\frac{\hat p(1-\hat p)}{n} }[/tex]
[tex]0.015 = 1.645 \times \sqrt{\frac{0.48(1-0.48)}{n} }[/tex]
[tex]\sqrt{n} = \frac{1.645 \times \sqrt{0.48 \times 0.52} }{0.015}[/tex]
[tex]\sqrt{n}[/tex] = 54.79
n = [tex]54.79^{2}[/tex]
n = 3001.88 ≈ 3002
Hence, a survey should include at least 3002 people if we wanted the margin of error for the 90% confidence level to be about 1.5%.
wo independent samples have been selected, 100 observations from population 1 and 76 observations from population 2. The sample means have been calculated to be x⎯⎯⎯1=11.9 and x⎯⎯⎯2=12.9. From previous experience with these populations, it is known that the variances are σ21=27 and σ22=23. (a) Determine the rejection region for the test of
Answer:
[tex]\text{Critical Region} = z<-1.96\ \text{or}\ z>1.96[/tex]
Step-by-step explanation:
A test for the difference between two population means is to be performed.
As the population variances are known, the z-test will be used.
The hypothesis can be defined as follows:
H₀: μ₁ = μ₂ vs. Hₐ: μ₁ ≠ μ₂
Assume that the significance level of the test is, α = 0.05.
The critical region can be defined as follows:
The critical value of z for α = 0.05 is:
[tex]z_{\alpha/2}=z_{0.05/2}=z_{0.025} =-1.96\\\\z_{1-\alpha/2}=z_{1-0.05/2}=z_{0.975} =1.96[/tex]
Use a z-table.
[tex]\text{Critical Region} = z<-1.96\ \text{or}\ z>1.96[/tex]
Find the measure of a.
A. 60
B. 57
C. 40
D. 80
Answer:
Option (C)
Step-by-step explanation:
Since angle 'a' is the inscribed angle of the given triangle
Therefore, angle measure of the intercepted arc will be equal to the double of the inscribed angle.
x = 2a ⇒ a = [tex]\frac{x}{2}[/tex]
By the tangent-chord theorem,
"Angle between a chord and tangent measure the half of the angle measure of intercepted minor arc"
[tex]\frac{x}{2}[/tex] = 40°
Therefore, a = [tex]\frac{x}{2}[/tex] = 40°
Option (C) will be the answer.

Eliminate the parameter for the following set of parametric equations: x= t^2 + 2 y= 4t^2
Answer:
Solution : y = 4x - 8
Step-by-step explanation:
The first thing we want to do is isolate t², rather than t. Why? As you can see when we substitute t² into the second equation, it will be easier than substituting t, as t is present in the form t². So, let's isolate t² in the first equation --- ( 1 )
x = t² + 2,
t² = x - 2
Now let's substitute this value of t² in the second equation --- ( 2 )
y = 4t²,
y = 4(x - 2),
y = 4x - 8 ~ And hence our solution is option c.
Which option is correct and how would one solve for it?
Answer:
28
Step-by-step explanation:
We need to find the value of [tex]\Sigma_{x=0}^3\ 2x^2[/tex]
We know that,
[tex]\Sigma n^2=\dfrac{n(n+1)(2n+1)}{6}[/tex]
Here, n = 3
So,
[tex]\Sigma n^2=\dfrac{3(3+1)(2(3)+1)}{6}\\\\\Sigma n^2=14[/tex]
So,
[tex]\Sigma_{x=0}^3\ 2x^2=2\times 14\\\\=28[/tex]
So, the value of [tex]\Sigma_{x=0}^3\ 2x^2[/tex] is 28. Hence, the correct option is (d).

Your job in a company is to fill quart-size bottles of oil from a full -gallon oil tank. Then you are to pack quarts of oil in a case to ship to a store. How many full cases of oil can you get from a full -gallon tank of oil?
Answer:
See below.
Step-by-step explanation:
1 gal = 4 qt
With a full gallon oil tank, you can fill 4 1-qt bottles.
The problem does not mention the number of quarts that go in a case, so there is not enough information to answer the question.
Also, is the full tank really only 1 gallon, or is there a number missing there too?
Because she has limited shelf space, she can't put out all her copies of the CD at once. On Monday morning, she stocked the display with 40 copies. By the end of the day, some of the copies had been sold. On Tuesday morning, she counted the number of copies left and then added that many more to the shelf. In other words, she doubled the number that was left in the display. At the end of the day, she discovered that she had sold the exact same number of copies as had been sold on Monday. On Wednesday morning, the manager decided to triple the number of copies that had been left in the case after Tuesday. Amazingly, she sold the same number of copies on Wednesday as she had on each of the first two days! But this time, at the end of the day the display case was empty.
Now, it look like there is some information missing in the answer. The whole problem should look like this:
Alicia Keys's new album As I Am is climbing the charts, and the manager of Tip Top Tunes expects to sell a lot of copies. Because she has limited shelf space, she can't put out all her copies of the CD at once. On Monday morning, she stocked the display with 40 copies. By the end of the day, some of the copies had been sold. On Tuesday morning, she counted the number of copies left and then added that many more to the shelf. In other words, she doubled the number that was left in the display. At the end of the day, she discovered that she had sold the exact same number of copies as had been sold on Monday. On Wednesday morning, the manager decided to triple the number of copies that had been left in the case after Tuesday. Amazingly, she sold the same number of copies on Wednesday as she had on each of the first two days! But this time, at the end of the day the display case was empty. How many copies of the As I Am CD did she sell each day?
Answer:
She sold 24 copies of the cd each day.
Step-by-step explanation:
In order to solve this problem we must first set our variable up. In this case, since we need to know what the number of sold cd's per day is, that will just be our variable:
x= Number of copies sold.
So we can start setting our equation up. So we take the first part of the problem:
"On Monday morning, she stocked the display with 40 copies. By the end of the day, some of the copies had been sold."
This can be translated as:
40-x
where this expression represents the number of copies left on the shelf by the end of monday.
"On Tuesday morning, she counted the number of copies left and then added that many more to the shelf."
so we represent it like this:
(40-x)+(40-x)
"In other words, she doubled the number that was left in the display."
so the previous expression can be simplified like this:
2(40-x)
"At the end of the day, she discovered that she had sold the exact same number of copies as had been sold on Monday."
so the expression now turns to:
2(40-x)-x this is the number of copies left by the end of tuesday.
"On Wednesday morning, the manager decided to triple the number of copies that had been left in the case after Tuesday."
this translates to:
3[2(40-x)-x]
This is the number of copies on the shelf by the begining of Wednesday.
"Amazingly, she sold the same number of copies on Wednesday as she had on each of the first two days! But this time, at the end of the day the display case was empty."
this piece of information lets us finish writting our equation:
3[2(40-x)-x] -x = 0
since there were no copies left on the shelf, then the equation is equal to zero.
So now we proceed and solve the equation for x:
3[2(40-x)-x] -x = 0
We simplify it from the inside to the outside.
3[80-2x-x]-x=0
3[80-3x]-x = 0
we now distribute the 3 so we get:
240-9x-x=0
we combine like terms so we get:
240-10x=0
we move the 240 to the other side of the equation so we get:
-10x=-240
and divide both sides into -10 so we get:
x=24
so she sold 24 copies each day.

the definition of parallel lines requires the undefined terms line and plane by the definition of perpendicular lines requires the undefined terms of line and point. what charcteristics of these geometric figures create the different requirements?
Answer:
Parallel lines never intersect, but they must be in the same plane. The definition does not require the undefined term point, but it does require plane. Because they intersect, perpendicular lines must be coplanar; consequently, plane is not required in the definition.

Find the slope of the line whose x-intercept is 4 and the y- intercept is -9
Answer:
y = (9/4)x - 9
Step-by-step explanation:
The x-intercept is (4, 0) and the y-intercept is (0, -9).
As we move from (0, -9) to (4, 0), x (the 'run' increases by 4 and y (the 'rise' increases by 9. Thus, the slope of the line connecting these two points is m = rise/run = 9/4, from which we can write the desired equation in the form y = mx + b:
y = (9/4)x - 9

Find secα, if sinα=−2/3 and 3π/2 <α<2π . Also the α=alpha symbol
Answer:
Step-by-step explanation:
Given sinα=−2/3, before we can get secα, we need to get the value of α first from sinα=−2/3.
[tex]sin \alpha = -2/3[/tex]
Taking the arcsin of both sides
[tex]sin^{-1}(sin\alpha) = sin^{-1} -2/3\\ \\\alpha = sin^{-1} -2/3\\ \\\alpha = -41.8^0[/tex]
Since sin is negative in the 3rd and 4th quadrant. In the 3rd quadrant;
α = 180°+41.8°
α = 221.8° which is between the range 270°<α<360°
secα = sec 221.8°
secα = 1/cos 221.8
secα = 1.34

The three numbers are
(Use a comma to separate answers as needed.)
Answer:
45, 180, 145
Step-by-step explanation:
Let n represent the first number. Then "one number" is 4n, and the third number is n+100. The sum of the three numbers is ...
n + 4n + (n+100) = 370
6n = 270
n = 45
4n = 180
n+100 = 145
The three numbers are 45, 180, 145.
An Internet service provider is implementing a new program based on the number of connected devices in each household currently,customers are charged a flat rate of $175 per month.the new plan would charge a flat rate of $94 plus an additional $4.50 per device connected to the network.find the number of devices,x,for which the cost of the new plan is less than the cost of the current plan.
Answer:
(x=6) is less than 18 which would give you the cost of the current plan
Step-by-step explanation:
If you take six, first you must multiply 4.50 by 6, ($27) then add it, to $94, giving you $121. Now we have to find which phone will give us the same cost, for this I choose 18. if you do 18 x 4.50, you get $81, and if you add this to 94, it gives you 175.

f(x)=3x2+10x-25 g(x)=9x2-25 Find (f/g)(x).
Answer:
[tex](f/g)(x) = \frac{x + 5}{3x + 5} [/tex]
Step-by-step explanation:
f(x) = 3x² + 10x - 25
g(x) = 9x² - 25
To find (f/g)(x) divide f(x) by g(x)
That's
[tex](f/g)(x) = \frac{3 {x}^{2} + 10x - 25 }{9 {x}^{2} - 25 } [/tex]
Factorize both the numerator and the denominator
For the numerator
3x² + 10x - 25
3x² + 15x - 5x - 25
3x ( x + 5) - 5( x + 5)
(3x - 5 ) ( x + 5)
For the denominator
9x² - 25
(3x)² - 5²
Using the formula
a² - b² = ( a + b)(a - b)
(3x)² - 5² = (3x + 5)(3x - 5)
So we have
[tex](f/g)(x) = \frac{(3x - 5)(x + 5)}{(3x + 5)(3x - 5)} [/tex]
Simplify
We have the final answer as
[tex](f/g)(x) = \frac{x + 5}{3x + 5} [/tex]

A United Nations report shows the mean family income for Mexican migrants to the United States is $26,500 per year. A FLOC (Farm Labor Organizing Committee) evaluation of 24 Mexican family units reveals a mean to be $30,150 with a sample standard deviation of $10,560. State the null hypothesis and the alternate hypothesis.
Answer:
The null hypothesis [tex]\mathtt{H_0 : \mu = 26500}[/tex]
The alternative hypothesis [tex]\mathtt{H_1 : \mu \neq 26500}[/tex]
Step-by-step explanation:
The summary of the given statistics is:
Population Mean = 26,500
Sample Mean = 30,150
Standard deviation = 10560
sample size = 24
The objective is to state the null hypothesis and the alternate hypothesis.
An hypothesis is a claim with insufficient information which tends to be challenged into further testing and experimentation in order to determine if such claim is significant or not.
The null hypothesis is a default hypothesis where there is no statistical significance between the two variables in the hypothesis.
The alternative hypothesis is the research hypothesis that the researcher is trying to prove.
The null hypothesis [tex]\mathtt{H_0 : \mu = 26500}[/tex]
The alternative hypothesis [tex]\mathtt{H_1 : \mu \neq 26500}[/tex]
The test statistic can be computed as follows:
[tex]z = \dfrac{\overline X - \mu}{\dfrac{\sigma}{\sqrt{n}}}[/tex]
[tex]z = \dfrac{30150 - 26500}{\dfrac{10560}{\sqrt{24}}}[/tex]
[tex]z = \dfrac{3650}{\dfrac{10560}{4.8989}}[/tex]
[tex]z = \dfrac{3650 \times 4.8989 }{{10560}}[/tex]
z = 1.6933
What is the equation of the parabola that has its vertex at (8,-1) and a y-intercept of (0,-17)?
y = a(x + 1.5)^2 - 12.5
y intercept is (0,-8) so:-
-8 = a(0+1.5)^2 - 12.5
-8 = 2.25a - 12.5
a = 4.5/ 2.25 = 2
so we have
y = 2 ( x +1.5)^2 - 12.5
solving for x when y = 0:-
(x + 1.5)^2 = 12.5/2 = 6.25
taking sqrt's x + 1.5 = +/- 2.5
x = -4, 1
so the x intercepts are (-4,0) and (1,0)
Answer:
y = –1∕4(x – 8)^2 – 1

The value of x is 10.
We have a circle and inside it two chords MY and NT intersect at point H.
We have to find the value of x in the figure.
What is intersecting chord theorem?According to the intersecting chord theorem, when two chords say AB and CD intersect at point O, then
AO x OB = CO x OD
Applying the chord intersecting theorem to the figure in the question, we get -
MH x HY = NH x HT
12 x 20 = (x+20) x 8
240 = 8x + 160
8x = 80
x = 10
Hence the value of x is 10.

Answer:
7.5
Step-by-step explanation:
solve for x: 7^2x+3 =2401 . show substitution of your solution to verify the equation. show steps. show work.
Answer:
X= 1/2
Step-by-step explanation:
7^2x+3 =2401
7^(2x+3 )=2401
7^(2x+3 )= 7^4
Taking away the base because its equal to 7
Then solving the power as an equation
2x+3= 4
2x= 4-3
2x= 1
X=1/2
Now substituting x into the equation to know if we are correct
7^(2x+3 )=2401
Where x= 1/2
7^(2*(1/2) +3)= 7^4
7^(1+3)= 7^4
7^4= 7^4
7^4= 2401

Question:
In exercises 1 through 4, find the one-sided limits lim x->2(left) f(x) and limx-> 2(right) from the given graph of f and determine whether lim x->2 f(x) exists.
Step-by-step explanation:
For a left-hand limit, we start at the left side and move right, and see where the function goes as we get close to the x value.
For a right-hand limit, we start at the right side and move left, and see where the function goes as we get close to the x value.
If the two limits are equal, then the limit exists. Otherwise, it doesn't.
1. As we approach x = 2 from the left, f(x) approaches -2.
lim(x→2⁻) f(x) = -2
As we approach x = 2 from the right, f(x) approaches 1.
lim(x→2⁺) f(x) = 1
The limits are not the same, so the limit does not exist.
lim(x→2) f(x) = DNE
2. As we approach x = 2 from the left, f(x) approaches 4.
lim(x→2⁻) f(x) = 4
As we approach x = 2 from the right, f(x) approaches 2.
lim(x→2⁺) f(x) = 2
The limits are not the same, so the limit does not exist.
lim(x→2) f(x) = DNE
3. As we approach x = 2 from the left, f(x) approaches 2.
lim(x→2⁻) f(x) = 2
As we approach x = 2 from the right, f(x) approaches 2.
lim(x→2⁺) f(x) = 2
The limits are equal, so the limit exists.
lim(x→2) f(x) = 2
4. As we approach x = 2 from the left, f(x) approaches 2.
lim(x→2⁻) f(x) = 2
As we approach x = 2 from the right, f(x) approaches infinity.
lim(x→2⁺) f(x) = ∞
The limits are not the same, so the limit does not exist.
lim(x→2) f(x) = DNE
