21, 14, 13, 24, 17, 22, 25, 12

Required:
a. Calculate the sample mean and the sample standard deviation.
b. Construct the 90% confidence interval for the population mean.
c. Construct the 95% confidence interval for the population mean

Answers

Answer 1

Answer:

a

   [tex]\= x = 18.5[/tex]  ,  [tex]\sigma = 5.15[/tex]

b

 [tex]15.505 < \mu < 21.495[/tex]

c

 [tex]14.93 < \mu < 22.069[/tex]

Step-by-step explanation:

From the question we are are told that

    The  sample data is  21, 14, 13, 24, 17, 22, 25, 12

     The sample size is  n  = 8

Generally the ample mean is evaluated as

        [tex]\= x = \frac{\sum x }{n}[/tex]

        [tex]\= x = \frac{ 21 + 14 + 13 + 24 + 17 + 22+ 25 + 12 }{8}[/tex]

         [tex]\= x = 18.5[/tex]

Generally the standard deviation is mathematically evaluated as

         [tex]\sigma = \sqrt{\frac{\sum (x- \=x )^2}{n}}[/tex]

[tex]\sigma = \sqrt{\frac{\sum ((21 - 18.5)^2 + (14-18.5)^2+ (13-18.5)^2+ (24-18.5)^2+ (17-18.5)^2+ (22-18.5)^2+ (25-18.5)^2+ (12 -18.5)^2 )}{8}}[/tex]

[tex]\sigma = 5.15[/tex]

considering part b

Given that the confidence level is  90% then the significance level is evaluated as

         [tex]\alpha = 100-90[/tex]

         [tex]\alpha = 10\%[/tex]

         [tex]\alpha = 0.10[/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} } = 1.645[/tex]

The margin of error is mathematically represented as

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

=>    [tex]E =1.645 * \frac{5.15 }{\sqrt{8} }[/tex]

=>     [tex]E = 2.995[/tex]

The 90% confidence interval is evaluated as

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

substituting values

       [tex]18.5 - 2.995 < \mu < 18.5 + 2.995[/tex]

       [tex]15.505 < \mu < 21.495[/tex]

considering part c

Given that the confidence level is  95% then the significance level is 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]

The margin of error is mathematically represented as

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

=>    [tex]E =1.96 * \frac{5.15 }{\sqrt{8} }[/tex]

=>     [tex]E = 3.569[/tex]

The 95% confidence interval is evaluated as

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

substituting values

       [tex]18.5 - 3.569 < \mu < 18.5 + 3.569[/tex]

       [tex]14.93 < \mu < 22.069[/tex]

Step-by-step explanation:

four blue marbles, an unknown number of red (r) marbles, and six yellow marbles in a bag = 4+r+6 = 10+r marbles

P( blue) = blue marbles / total marbles

             = 4/ (10+r)

Then replace

P( r) = red marbles / total marbles

             = r/ (10+r)

P( blue replace ,red) =P ( blue ) * P(red)

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

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]

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.

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.

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

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

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:

15,000*0.40 = 6,000.

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

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.

Suppose you are standing such that a 32-foot tree is directly between you and the sun. If you are standing 140 feet away from the tree and the tree casts a 160-foot shadow, how tall could you be and still be completely in the shadow of the tree? x 160 ft 140 ft 32 ft

Answers

Answer:

Height = 4 feet

Step-by-step explanation:

To determine how tall I can be we take the difference between the shadow cast by the 32-feet tree and the distance away from the tree

But the tree is 32 feet tall but on shadow it's 160

So lemme determine how long I'll be in my shadow first

Distance away from tree= 140 feet

Length of shadow cast by tree

= 160 feet

Length of shadow= 160-140

Length if shadow= 20 feet

My height= x

X/20= 32/160

X= 20*32/260

X = 4 feet

Height = 4 feet

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]

     [tex]n =135[/tex]

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.
