Carol wanted to know about how much time students in her school spent surfing the Internet. So she asked 15 of her friends to complete a survey that she had prepared. Will the results of Carol’s survey represent the population of students in her school as a whole, and if so, which sampling method did Carol use?

A. Yes, Carol used simple random sampling.
B. Yes, Carol used systematic random sampling.
C. Yes, Carol used stratified random sampling.
D. No, Carol’s survey was not a random sample.

Answers

Answer 1

Answer:

D

Step-by-step explanation:

We can go through each form of sampling and see where this scenario fits.

- Simple random sampling is simply taking a random percentage of the population. In this case, with the population being students in Carol's school, this would entail taking a random sample from her school. As her friends are not randomly selected, this does not fit

- Systematic random sampling means that every nth item is selected. For example, if Carol took every 10th person at her school, this would fit. However, as her friends are not selected by Carol choosing every 5th or 10th person at school (or something like that), this does not fit.

- Stratified random sampling means that different subgroups of the population are selected, and once those are selected, it is randomized to see who out of the subgroup is selected. For example, if Carol took all the men and women in her school and chose 50 random men and 50 random women, this would work. Although Carol's friends may define a subgroup of the population here, she is not asking anyone outside of that subgroup here, so this does not fit.

As none of these fit, the only answer left is D

Answer 2

If or whether Carol's sampling strategy was random and objective will determine if the survey's findings accurately reflect the population of pupils at her school. So, the correct option is D.

What is Random sampling?

A statistical method known as random sampling is used to choose a representative sample of people or things from a bigger population. Every member of the population maintains an equal probability of being chosen in a random sample, and there is no systematic bias present in the selection procedure.

Which sample technique Carol employed is unclear given the facts in the question. Carol's poll would not be regarded as a random sample, and the findings might not be representative of the entire student body at her school if she simply asked 15 of her friends to respond.

Therefore, the correct option is D.

In an accelerated failure test, components are operated under extreme conditions so that a substantial number will fail in a rather short time. In such a test involving two types of microchips, 580 chips manufactured by an existing process were tested, and 125 of them failed. Then, 780 chips manufactured by a new process were tested, and 130 of them failed. Find a 90% confidence interval for the difference between the proportions of failures for chips manufactured by the two processes. (Round the final answers to four decimal places.) The 90% confidence interval is

Answers

Answer:

The 90% confidence interval is (0.0131, 0.0845).

Step-by-step explanation:

Before finding the confidence interval, we need to understand the central limit theorem and subtraction of normal variables.

Central Limit Theorem

The Central Limit Theorem establishes that, for a normally distributed random variable X, with mean [tex]\mu[/tex] and standard deviation [tex]\sigma[/tex], the sampling distribution of the sample means with size n can be approximated to a normal distribution with mean [tex]\mu[/tex] and standard deviation [tex]s = \frac{\sigma}{\sqrt{n}}[/tex].

For a skewed variable, the Central Limit Theorem can also be applied, as long as n is at least 30.

For a proportion p in a sample of size n, the sampling distribution of the sample proportion will be approximately normal with mean [tex]\mu = p[/tex] and standard deviation [tex]s = \sqrt{\frac{p(1-p)}{n}}[/tex]

Subtraction between normal variables:

When two normal variables are subtracted, the mean is the difference of the means, while the standard deviation is the square root of the sum of the variances.

Old process:

125 out of 580, so:

[tex]p_O = \frac{125}{580} = 0.2155[/tex]

[tex]s_O = \sqrt{\frac{0.2155*0.7845}{580}} = 0.0171[/tex]

New process:

130 out of 780. So

[tex]p_N = \frac{130}{780} = 0.1667[/tex]

[tex]s_N = \sqrt{\frac{0.1667*0.8333}{780}} = 0.0133[/tex]

Distribution of the difference:

[tex]p = p_O - p_N = 0.2155 - 0.1667 = 0.0488[/tex]

[tex]s = \sqrt{s_O^2+s_N^2} = \sqrt{0.0171^2 + 0.0133^2} = 0.0217[/tex]

Confidence interval:

[tex]p \pm zs[/tex]

In which

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

90% confidence level

So [tex]\alpha = 0.1[/tex], z is the value of Z that has a p-value of [tex]1 - \frac{0.1}{2} = 0.95[/tex], so [tex]Z = 1.645[/tex].

The lower bound of the interval is:

[tex]p - zs = 0.0488 - 1.645*0.0217 = 0.0131[/tex]

The upper bound of the interval is:

[tex]p + zs = 0.0488 + 1.645*0.0217 = 0.0845[/tex]

The 90% confidence interval is (0.0131, 0.0845).

Answer:

y = 3x - 5

Step-by-step explanation:

Slope = 3

x-intercept (what the value of y is when its 0) = -5 so y = 3x - 5

Answer:

y = 3x - 5

Step-by-step explanation:

Find the slope of the line between (0,−5)(0,-5) and (3,4)(3,4) using m=y2−y1x2−x1m=y2-y1x2-x1, which is the change of yy over the change of xx.

m=3m=3

Use the slope 33 and a given point (0,−5)(0,-5) to substitute for x1x1 and y1y1 in the point-slope form y−y1=m(x−x1)y-y1=m(x-x1), which is derived from the slope equation m=y2−y1x2−x1m=y2-y1x2-x1.

y−(−5)=3⋅(x−(0))y-(-5)=3⋅(x-(0))

Simplify the equation and keep it in point-slope form.

y+5=3⋅(x+0)

Add xx and 00.

y+5=3xy+5=3x

Subtract 55 from both sides of the equation.

y=3x−5

Give a vector parametric equation for the line through the point (−2,−4,0) that is parallel to the line ⟨−2−3t,1−4t,−5t⟩:

Answers

The tangent vector for the given line is

T(t) = d/dt ⟨-2 - 3t, 1 - 4t, -5t⟩ = ⟨-3, -4, -5⟩

On its own, this vector points to a single point in space, (-3, -4, -5).

Multiply this vector by some scalar t to get a whole set of vectors, essentially stretching or contracting the vector ⟨-3, -4, -5⟩. This set is a line through the origin.

Now translate this set of vectors by adding to it the vector ⟨-2, -4, 0⟩, which correspond to the given point.

Then the equation for this new line is simply

L(t) = ⟨-3, -4, -5⟩t + ⟨-2, -4, 0⟩ = ⟨-2 - 3t, -4 - 4t, -5t

The vector parametric equation for the line through the point is [tex]r = (-2, \ -4, \ 0) +(-3, \ -4, \ -5)t\\\\[/tex].

Give a vector parametric equation for the line through the point (−2,−4,0) that is parallel to the line ⟨−2−3t,1−4t,−5t⟩.

What is a parametric equation vector?

Parametric equations of the line segment are defined by its endpoints.

To find the vector equation of the line segment, we’ll convert its endpoints to their vector equivalents.

Two lines are parallel if they have the same direction, and in the parametric form, the direction of a line is always the vector of constants that multiply t (or the parameter).

The vector equation of a line is given by:

[tex]\rm v = r_0+tv[/tex]

Where v is the direction vector and [tex]\rm r_0[/tex] is a point of the line.

The tangent vector for the given line is

T(t) = d/dt ⟨-2 - 3t, 1 - 4t, -5t⟩ = ⟨-3, -4, -5⟩

Here,

[tex]\rm r_0 = (-2,-4,0) \ and \ v=(-3, \ -4, \ -5)t\\\\[/tex]

Then,

[tex]r = (-2, \ -4, \ 0) +(-3, \ -4, \ -5)t\\\\[/tex]

x = -2-3t, y = -4-4t, and z = 0-5t

Answers

Answer:

12x - 28° = 116°

7x + 32° = 116°

Step-by-step explanation:

12x - 28° and 7x + 32° are vertical angles. Vertical angles are congruent.

Therefore, to find the measure of each angle, we have to set each equation equal to each other as follows:

12x - 28° = 7x + 32°

Collect like terms

12x - 7x = 28 + 32

5x = 60

Divide both sides by 5

5x/5 = 60/5

x = 12

✔️12x - 28°

Plug in the value of x

12(12) - 28

= 144 - 28

= 116°

✔️7x + 32°

7(12) + 32

= 84 + 32

= 116°

Answers

Jane is given a $100 gift to start and saves $35 a month from her allowance.

   After 1 month, Jane has saved

   After 2 months, Jane has saved

   After three months, Jane has saved

   and so on

In general, after x months Jane has saved

This means that it makes sense to represent the relationship between the amount saved and the number of months with one constant rate (in this case the constant rate is 35). It makes sense because the amount of money increases by $35 each month. Since the amount of increase is constant, we get constant rate. Also the initial amount is known ($100), so there is a possibility to write the equation of linear function representing this situation.

You need 675 mL of a 90% alcohol solution. On hand, you have a 25% alcohol mixture. How much of the 25% alcohol mixture and pure alcohol will you need to obtain the desired solution?

Answers

Answer:

90 ml of the 25 percent mixture and 585 of pure alcohol

Step-by-step explanation:

Firstly, you should find the quantity of alcohol in the desired mixture.

675:100*90= 675*0.9= 607.5

Firstly,  define all the 25 percents mixure as x, the pure alcohol weight is y.

1. x+y= 675 (because the first and the second liquid form a desired liquid).

Then find the equation for spirit

The first mixture contains 25 percents. It is x/100*25= 0.25x

When the second one consists of pure alcohol, it contains 100 percents of spirit,  so it is x.

2. 0.25x+y=607.5

Then you have a system of equations ( 1.x+y= 675 and 2. 0.25x+y= 607.5)

try 2-1 to get rid of y

x+y- (0.25x+y)= 675-607.5

0.75x= 67.5

x= 90

y= 675-x= 675-90= 585

It means that you need90 ml of the 25percents mixture and 585 0f pure alcohol
