Answers

Answer 1

Answer:

The correct option is b.

Step-by-step explanation:

The complete question is:

Suppose you want to study the length of time devoted to commercial breaks for two different types of television programs. Identify the types of programs you want to study (e.g., sitcoms, sports events, movies, news, children's programs, etc.). How large should the sample be for a specified margin of error.

(a) It depends only on the specified margin of error.

(b) It depends on not only the specified margin of error, but also on the confidence level.

(c) It depends only on the confidence level.

Solution:

The (1 - α) % confidence interval for population mean is:

[tex]CI=\bar x\pm z_{\alpha/2}\times \frac{\sigma}{\sqrt{n}}[/tex]  

The margin of error for this interval is:

 [tex]MOE=z_{\alpha/2}\times \frac{\sigma}{\sqrt{n}}[/tex]

Then the sample size formula is:

[tex]n=[\frac{z_{\alpha/2}\times \sigma}{MOE}]^{2}[/tex]

The sample size is dependent upon the confidence level (1 - α) %, the standard deviation and the desired margin of error.

Thus, the correct option is b.

Answer 2

The size of the sample 'n' depends on not only the specified margin of error, but also on the confidence level.

Given :

Suppose you want to study the length of time devoted to commercial breaks for two different types of television programs.

The following steps can be used in order to determine the size of the sample be for a specified margin of error:

Step 1 - The formula of the confidence interval is given below:

[tex]\rm CI =\bar{x}+z_{\alpha /2}\times \dfrac{\sigma }{\sqrt{n} }[/tex]

Step 2 - Now, for this interval, the formula of margin of error is given below:

[tex]\rm MOE = z_{\alpha /2}\times \dfrac{\sigma}{\sqrt{n} }[/tex]

Step 3 - Solve the above expression for sample size 'n'.

[tex]\rm n = \left(\dfrac{z_{\alpha /2}\times \sigma}{MOE}\right)^2[/tex]

From the above steps, it can be concluded that the correct option is B) It depends on not only the specified margin of error, but also on the confidence level.

Required:
a. What is the point estimate of the mean salary for all college graduates in this town?
b. Determine the sample size used for the analysis.

Answers

Answer: a. $40,800 b. 36

Step-by-step explanation:

Given : a 99% confidence interval for the mean salary of college graduates in a town in Mississippi is given by [$34,393, $47,207].

[tex]\sigma= \$14,900[/tex]

a. Since Point estimate of of the mean = Average of upper limit and lower limit of the interval.

Therefore , the point estimate of the mean salary for all college graduates in this town = [tex]\dfrac{34393+47207}{2}=\dfrac{81600}{2}[/tex]

= 40,800

hence, the point estimate of the mean salary for all college graduates in this town = $40,800

b.  Since  lower limit = Point estimate - margin of error, where Margin of error is the half of the difference between upper limit and lower limit.

Margin of error[tex]=\dfrac{47207-34393}{2}=6407[/tex]

Also, margin of error = [tex]z\times\dfrac{\sigma}{\sqrt{n}}[/tex], where z= critical z-value for confidence level and n is the sample size.

z-value for 99% confidence level  = 2.576

So,

[tex]6407=2.576\times\dfrac{14900}{\sqrt{n}}\\\\\Rightarrow\ \sqrt{n}=2.576\times\dfrac{14900}{6407}=5.99\\\\\Rightarrow\ n=(5.99)^2=35.8801\approx 36[/tex]

 Yes our result would support the claim because

            [tex]\frac{1}{3 } \ of N < \frac{1}{2} (50\%) \ of \ N , \ Where\ N \ is \ the \ population\ size[/tex]

Step-by-step explanation:

From the question we are told that

     The sample size is  [tex]n = 500[/tex]

     The sample proportion is  [tex]\r p = 0.47[/tex]

 

Generally the number of successes is mathematical represented as

             [tex]k = n * \r p[/tex]

substituting values

             [tex]k = 500 * 0.47[/tex]

            [tex]k = 235[/tex]

Generally the number of failure  is mathematical represented as

           [tex]y = n * (1 -\r p )[/tex]

substituting values

           [tex]y = 500 * (1 - 0.47 )[/tex]

           [tex]y = 265[/tex]

for approximate normality for a confidence interval  criteria to be satisfied

          [tex]np > 5 \ and \ n(1- p ) \ >5[/tex]

Given that the above is true for this survey then we can say that the criteria are met

  Given that the confidence level is  95%  then the level of confidence is mathematically evaluated 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, the value is

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

substituting values

                 [tex]E = 1.96 * \sqrt{ \frac{0.47 (1- 0.47}{500} }[/tex]

                 [tex]E = 0.044[/tex]

=>               [tex]E =4.4 \%[/tex]

What this mean is that for N number of times the survey is carried out that the proportion obtain will differ from  the true population proportion of those that are happy by more than 4.4%

The 95% confidence interval is mathematically represented as

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

substituting values

        [tex]0.47 - 0.044 < p < 0.47 + 0.044[/tex]

         [tex]0.426 < p < 0.514[/tex]

The upper limit of the 95% confidence interval is  [tex]r = 0.514 = 51.4 \%[/tex]

The lower limit of the   95% confidence interval is  [tex]v = 0.426 = 42.6 \%[/tex]

This 95% confidence interval  mean that the the chance of the true population proportion of those that are happy to be exist within the upper and the lower limit  is  95%

Given that 50% of the population proportion  lie with the 95% confidence interval  the it correct to say that it is reasonably likely that a majority of U.S. adults were happy at that time

Musah stands at the centre of a rectangular field. He first takes 50 steps north, then 25 steps

west and finally 50 steps on a bearing of 3150

.

ii. How far west is Musah’s final point from the centre?
iii. How far north is Musah’s final point from the centre?

iv. Describe how you would guide a JHS student to find the bearing and distance of

Musah’s final point from the centre. ​

Answers

Answer:

ii. 75 steps

iii. 75 steps

iv. 106 steps, and [tex]315^{0}[/tex]

Step-by-step explanation:

Let Musah's starting point be A, his waiting point after taking 50 steps northward and 25 steps westward be B, and his stopping point be C.

ii. From the second attachment, Musah's distance due west from A to C (AD) can be determined as;

bearing at B = [tex]315^{0}[/tex], therefore <BCD = [tex]45^{0}[/tex]

To determine distance AB,

[tex]/AB/^{2}[/tex] = [tex]/50/^{2}[/tex]   +  [tex]/25/^{2}[/tex]

          = 25000 + 625

          = 3125

AB = [tex]\sqrt{3125}[/tex]

     = 55.90

AB ≅ 56 steps

Thus, AC = 50 steps + 56 steps

               = 106 steps

From ΔACD,

Sin [tex]45^{0}[/tex] = [tex]\frac{x}{106}[/tex]

⇒ x = 106 × Sin [tex]45^{0}[/tex]

      = 74.9533

     ≅ 75 steps

Musah's distance west from centre to final point is 75 steps

iii. From the secon attachment, Musah's distance north, y, can be determined by;

Cos [tex]45^{0}[/tex] = [tex]\frac{y}{106}[/tex]

⇒ y = 106 × Cos [tex]45^{0}[/tex]

      = 74.9533

      ≅ 75 steps

Musah's distance north from centre to final point is 75 steps.

iv. Musah's distance from centre to final point is AC = AB + BC

                                     = 50 steps + 56 steps

                                     = 106 steps

From ΔACD,

Tan θ = [tex]\frac{75}{75}[/tex]

          = 1.0

θ = [tex]Tan^{-1}[/tex]  1.0

 = [tex]45^{0}[/tex]

Musah's bearing from centre to final point = [tex]45^{0}[/tex] + [tex]270^{0}[/tex]

                                                           =  [tex]315^{0}[/tex]

Using the insurance company's assumptions, calculate the probability that there are fewer than 3 tornadoes in a 14-year period. Round your answer to four decimal places.

Answers

Answer:  19.2222

Step-by-step explanation:

given data;

no of tornadoes = 2,1,0 because it’s fewer than 3.

period = 14 years

probability of a tornado in a calendar year = 0.12

solution:

probability of exactly 2 tornadoes

= ( 0.12 )^2 * ( 0.88 )^11 * ( 14! / 2! * 11! )

= 0.0144 * 0.2451 * 1092

= 3.8541

probability of exac one tornado

= ( 0.12 )^1 * ( 0.88 )^12 * ( 14! / 1! * 12! )

= 0.12 * 0.2157 * 182

= 12.7109

probability of exactly 0 tornado

= ( 0.12 )^0 * ( 0.88 )^13 * ( 14! / 0! * 13! )

= 1 * 0.1898 * 14

= 2.6572

probability if fewer than 3 tornadoes

= 3.8541 + 12.7109 +2.6572

Answer:

[tex]\theta[/tex] =2mπ + π/3 for m ∈ Z.

Step-by-step explanation:

Given the equation [tex]2sin\theta - \sqrt{3} = 0[/tex], we are to find all the values of [tex]\theta[/tex] that satisfies the equation.

[tex]2sin\theta - \sqrt{3} = 0\\\\2sin\theta = \sqrt{3} \\\\sin\theta = \sqrt{3}/2 \\\\\theta = sin{-1} \sqrt{3}/2 \\\\\theta = 60^0[/tex]

General solution for sin[tex]\theta[/tex] is [tex]\theta[/tex] = nπ + (-1)ⁿ ∝, where n ∈ Z.

If n is an even number say 2m, then [tex]\theta[/tex] = (2m)π + ∝ where ∝ = 60° = π/3

Hence, the general solution to the equation will be [tex]\theta[/tex] = 2mπ + π/3 for m ∈ Z.

a sample of 25 workers with employer provided health insurance paid an average premium of $6600 eith a sample standard deviation of $800. Construct a 95% confidence interval for the mean premium amount paid by all workers who have employer provided health insurance g

Answers

Answer:

$6284.4≤μ≤$6313.6

Step-by-step explanation:

Using the formula for calculating confidence interval as shown:

CI = xbar ± Z×S/√n

xbar is the average premium

Z is the z-score at 95% confidence

S is the standard deviation

n is the sample size

Given parameters

xbar = $6600

Z score at 95% CI = 1.96

S = $800

n = 25

Substituting this parameters in the formula we have;

CI = 6600±1.96×800/√25

CI = 6600±(1.96×800/5)

CI = 6600±(1.96×160)

CI = 6600±313.6

CI = (6600-313.6, 6600+313.6)

CI = (6284.4, 6913.6)

Hence the 95% confidence interval for the mean premium amount paid by all workers who have employer provided health insurance is $6284.4≤μ≤$6313.6

Answer:

[tex]\text{Ratio as a fraction - \: \boxed{\frac{8}{18}}}[/tex]

[tex]\text{Fraction in simplest form - \boxed{\frac{4}{9}}}[/tex]

Step-by-step explanation:

Part 1: Writing a ratio as a fraction

A fraction and a ratio are the same thing - just a different name. Therefore, the colon in a ratio is the same as a divisor line in a fraction. Therefore, to write a ratio as a fraction,

Replace the colon with a divisor line or the divisor line with a colon (use the first portion to transform a ratio into a fraction and the second form to transform a fraction into a ratio).

Therefore, 8:18 as a fraction is 8/18.

Part 2: Fraction in simplest form

To put a fraction in simplest form, first divide the numerator by the denominator. If it contains a remainder, you cannot use this step to verify it.

8 only goes into 18 twice and leaves a 2 as a remainder, so this method does not work.

Instead, if both numbers are even, divide by 2.

8/2 = 4

18/2 = 9

Check to see if the new numerator and denominator can reduce any further.

4/9 = 4/9

The fraction in simplest form is 4/9.

Write the equations, after translating the graph of y = |x+2|: one unit up,

Step-by-step explanation:

Parent Graph: f(x) = a|bx + c| + k

a is vertical stretch/shrink

b is horizontal stretch/shrink

c is horizontal movement left/right

k is vertical movement up/down

Since we are given an equation and we want to move it 1 unit up (vertical movement up), we only manipulate k:

y = |x + 2| + k

k = 1

y = |x + 2| + 1

Answer:

y = |x+2| + 1

Step-by-step explanation:

The formula for the slope of a line is rise over run. We know that the slope of the line will be positive because the line is going up from left to right.

Rise is the change on the y-axis, going up and down. Run is the change on the x-axis, going from left to right.

Let's start from the origin (0,0). To reach the next point on the line, we have to go up two points (rise) and over one point (run).

Slope = rise/run

A certain family has a husband, wife, son, and daughter. All together they are 68 years old. The husband is 3 years older than the wife, and the son is 3 years older than the daughter. Four years ago, all together the family was 54 years old. How old is the husband now?

Answers

Answer:

32

Step-by-step explanation:

Everyone added together = 68

Four years ago, they were 68 -16 = 52

But the question told 54 years.

So there was a girl who was 2 years.

Girl = 2

Boy = 2 +3 = 5

Husband = 3 +w

Wife =w

3 +w +w + 5 + 2 = 68

10 + 2w = 68

2w = 58

w = 29

Wife = 29

Husband = 29 +3 =32

Husband = 32 years

Answer:

[tex]\large \boxed{\sf \bf \ \ 32 \ \ }[/tex]

Step-by-step explanation:

Hello, please consider the following.

We know that "All together they are 68 years old." and "Four years ago, all together the family was 54 years old."

If all the family was alive four years ago, it means that four years ago the sum of their ages was 68 - 4 - 4 - 4 - 4 because they are four members, so it gives 68 - 16 =52 which is different from 54, right ?

It means that we have the daughter in between, 54- 52 = 2, so the daughter's age is 2, and then the son's age is 5.

The husband is 3 years older than the wife. Let's note W the wife's age, we can write W + 3 + W + 5 + 2 = 68

2 W + 10 = 68

2 W = 68 - 10 = 58 so W = 29

and then the husband's age is 29 + 3 = 32.

And we can verify that 32 + 29 + 5 + 2 = 68, and four years ago, 28 + 25 + 1 + 0 = 54.

Hope this helps.

Given that −4i is a zero, factor the following polynomial function completely. Use the Conjugate Roots Theorem, if applicable. f(x)=x4−2x3+x2−32x−240

Answers

Answer:

[tex]\large \boxed{\sf \bf \ \ f(x)=(x-4i)(x+4i)(x+3)(x-5) \ \ }[/tex]

Step-by-step explanation:

Hello, the Conjugate Roots Theorem states that if a complex number is a zero of real polynomial its conjugate is a zero too. It means that (x-4i)(x+4i) are factors of f(x).

[tex]\text{Meaning that } (x-4i)(x+4i) =x^2-(4i)^2=x^2+16 \text{ is a factor of f(x).}[/tex]

The coefficient of the leading term is 1 and the constant term is -240 = 16 * (-15), so we a re looking for a real number such that.

[tex]f(x)=x^4-2x^3+x^2-32x-240\\\\ =(x^2+16)(x^2+ax-15)\\\\ =x^4+ax^3-15x^2+16x^2+16ax-240[/tex]

We identify the coefficients for the like terms, it comes

a = -2 and 16a = -32 (which is equivalent). So, we can write in [tex]\mathbb{R}[/tex].

[tex]\\f(x)=(x^2+16)(x^2-2x-15)[/tex]

The sum of the zeroes is 2=5-3 and their product is -15=-3*5, so we can factorise by (x-5)(x+3), which gives.

[tex]f(x)=(x^2+16)(x^2-2x-15)\\\\=(x^2+16)(x^2+3x-5x-15)\\\\=(x^2+16)(x(x+3)-5(x+3))\\\\=\boxed{(x^2+16)(x+3)(x-5)}[/tex]

And we can write in [tex]\mathbb{C}[/tex]

[tex]f(x)=\boxed{(x-4i)(x+4i)(x+3)(x-5)}[/tex]

Hope this helps.

Varia is studying abroad in Europe. She is required pay $3,500 (in US dollars) per year to the university; however, she must pay in euros. How many euros can Varia expect to pay per month to the university?

Answers

Answer: 247.92 euros

Step-by-step explanation:

Given:  Varia is required pay $3,500 (in US dollars) per year to the university.

So, [tex]$3500\div 12 \approx\$291.67[/tex]

i.e. She will pay $ 291.67 per month.

Recent currency value: 1 US dollar = 0.85 euro

∴ $291.67 = ( 0.85 ×291.67) euros

= 247.92 euros  [Round to the nearest cent]

She can expect 247.92 euros to pay per month to the university.

To find:

Find the values of [tex]\frac{}{d}[/tex] and [tex]s_{d}[/tex]

d overbar ( [tex]\frac{}{d}[/tex])  is the sample mean of the differences which is calculated by dividing the sum of all the values of difference d with the number of values i.e. n = 5

[tex]\frac{}{d}[/tex] = ∑d/n

[tex]\frac{}{d}[/tex] = −0.26

s Subscript d is the sample standard deviation of the difference which is calculated as following:

[tex]s_{d}[/tex] = √∑([tex]d_{i}[/tex] - [tex]\frac{}{d}[/tex])²/ n-1

[tex]s_{d}[/tex] =

A manager wants to determine an appropriate learning percentage for processing insurance claims for storm damage. Toward that end, times have been recorded for completion of each of the first six repetitions:
Repetition 1 2 3 4 5 6
Time (minutes) 46 39 35 33 32 30
a. Determine the approximate learning percentage. (Round your answer to the nearest whole percent. Omit the "%" sign in your response.)
P %
b. Using your answer from part a, estimate the average completion time per repetition assuming a total of 30 repetitions are planned. (Round your answer to 3 decimal places.)

Answers

Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:

The approximate learning percentage can be estimated by using a doubling method.

If we breakdown the repetitions into three consecutive parts, we have:

1 - 2

2 - 4

3 - 6

then

1 - 2        →         46P = 39

P =39/46

P = 0.8478

P = 84.8%

2 - 4        →       39P = 33

P = 33/39

P = 0.84615

P = 84.6%

3  -  6    →       35P = 30

P = 30/35

P = 0.8571

P = 85.7%

The average value of P = (84.8 + 84.6 + 85.7)/3 = 85.03%

[tex]\simeq[/tex] 85%

From the tables of Learning Curves coefficient

The values are likened against times derived from 85% table factors at T[tex]_1[/tex] = 46

Unit                 1                2           3                    4                5            6

Computed       -              39.1       35.56          33.26        31.56       30.22

b. Using your answer from part a, estimate the average completion time per repetition assuming a total of 30 repetitions are planned. (Round your answer to 3 decimal places.)

The average completion time = [tex]\mathtt{\dfrac{T_1 \times \ Total \ time\ factor}{n}}[/tex]

At the total time factor 30, from the learning curves table , n(30) = 17.091

Thus:

The average completion time = [tex]\mathtt{\dfrac{46 \times \ 17.091}{30}}[/tex]

The average completion time = [tex]\mathtt{\dfrac{786.186}{30}}[/tex]

The average completion time = [tex]\mathtt{26.2062}[/tex]

Answers

Answer: A) (-2, 4), (6,8)

Step-by-step explanation:

When a point (x,y) is dilated by a scale factor of k , then the new points is given by (kx,ky).

Given: The line segment AB with endpoints A(-3, 6) and B(9, 12) is dilated with a scale factor [tex]\dfrac23[/tex] about the origin.

Let A' and B' b the endpoints of the dilated line segment.

Then, [tex]A'(\dfrac{2}{3}(-3), \dfrac23(6))=A'(-2,4)[/tex]

[tex]B'(\dfrac{2}{3}(9), \dfrac23(12))=B'(6,8)[/tex]
