Answer:
Decreased by 20%
Step-by-step explanation:
0.5 x ? = 0.4
? = 0.4/0.5
? = 0.8
1 - 0.8 = 0.2
0.2 = 20%
To check, 20% of 0.5 is 0.1. 0.5 - 0.1 is 0.4. So the answer is correct.
Working for a car company, you have been assigned to find the average miles per gallon (mpg) for acertain model of car. you take a random sample of 15 cars of the assigned model. based on previous evidence and a qq plot, you have reason to believe that the gas mileage is normally distributed. you find that the sample average miles per gallon is around 26.7 with a standard deviation of 6.2 mpg.
a. Construct and interpret a 95% condence interval for the mean mpg, , for the certain model of car.
b. What would happen to the interval if you increased the condence level from 95% to 99%? Explain
c. The lead engineer is not happy with the interval you contructed and would like to keep the width of the whole interval to be less than 4 mpg wide. How many cars would you have to sample to create the interval the engineer is requesting?
Answer:
a) The 95% confidence interval for the mean mpg, for the certain model of car is (23.3, 30.1). This means that we are 95% sure that the true mean mpg of the model of the car is between 23.3 mpg and 30.1 mpg.
b) Increasing the confidence level, the value of T would increase, thus increasing the margin of error and making the interval wider.
c) 37 cars would have to be sampled.
Step-by-step explanation:
Question a:
We have the sample standard deviation, and thus, the t-distribution is used to solve this question.
The first step to solve this problem is finding how many degrees of freedom, we have. This is the sample size subtracted by 1. So
df = 15 - 1 = 14
95% confidence interval
Now, we have to find a value of T, which is found looking at the t table, with 14 degrees of freedom(y-axis) and a confidence level of [tex]1 - \frac{1 - 0.95}{2} = 0.975[/tex]. So we have T = 2.1448
The margin of error is:
[tex]M = T\frac{s}{\sqrt{n}} = 2.1448\frac{6.2}{\sqrt{15}} = 3.4[/tex]
In which s is the standard deviation of the sample and n is the size of the sample.
The lower end of the interval is the sample mean subtracted by M. So it is 26.7 - 3.4 = 23.3 mpg.
The upper end of the interval is the sample mean added to M. So it is 26.7 + 3.4 = 30.1 mpg.
The 95% confidence interval for the mean mpg, for the certain model of car is (23.3, 30.1). This means that we are 95% sure that the true mean mpg of the model of the car is between 23.3 mpg and 30.1 mpg.
b. What would happen to the interval if you increased the confidence level from 95% to 99%? Explain
Increasing the confidence level, the value of T would increase, thus increasing the margin of error and making the interval wider.
c. The lead engineer is not happy with the interval you constructed and would like to keep the width of the whole interval to be less than 4 mpg wide. How many cars would you have to sample to create the interval the engineer is requesting?
Width is twice the margin of error, so a margin of error of 2 would be need. To solve this, we have to consider the population standard deviation as [tex]\sigma = 6.2[/tex], and then use the z-distribution.
We have that to find our [tex]\alpha[/tex] level, that is the subtraction of 1 by the confidence interval divided by 2. So:
[tex]\alpha = \frac{1 - 0.95}{2} = 0.025[/tex]
Now, we have to find z in the Z-table as such z has a p-value of [tex]1 - \alpha[/tex].
That is z with a pvalue of [tex]1 - 0.025 = 0.975[/tex], so Z = 1.96.
Now, find the margin of error M as such
[tex]M = z\frac{\sigma}{\sqrt{n}}[/tex]
In which [tex]\sigma[/tex] is the standard deviation of the population and n is the size of the sample.
How many cars would you have to sample to create the interval the engineer is requesting?
This is n for which M = 2. So
[tex]M = z\frac{\sigma}{\sqrt{n}}[/tex]
[tex]2 = 1.96\frac{6.2}{\sqrt{n}}[/tex]
[tex]2\sqrt{n} = 1.96*6.2[/tex]
[tex]\sqrt{n} = \frac{1.96*6.2}{2}[/tex]
[tex](\sqrt{n})^2 = (\frac{1.96*6.2}{2})^2[/tex]
[tex]n = 36.9[/tex]
Rounding up:
37 cars would have to be sampled.

Answer:
A
Step-by-step explanation:
Suppose that a local TV station conducts a survey of a random sample of 120 registered voters in order to predict the winner of a local election. The Democrat candidate was favored by 62 of the respondents.
Required:
a. Construct and interpret a 99% CI for the true proportion of voters who prefer the Republican candidate.
b. If a candidate needs a simple majority of the votes to win the election, can the Republican candidate be confident of victory? Justify your response with an appropriate statistical argument.
Answer:
a) The 99% CI for the true proportion of voters who prefer the Republican candidate is (0.3658, 0.6001). This means that we are 99% sure that the true population proportion of all voters who prefer the Republican candidate is (0.3658, 0.6001).
b) The upper bound of the confidence interval is above 0.5 = 50%, which meas that the candidate can be confidence of victory.
Step-by-step explanation:
Question a:
In a sample with a number n of people surveyed with a probability of a success of [tex]\pi[/tex], and a confidence level of [tex]1-\alpha[/tex], we have the following confidence interval of proportions.
[tex]\pi \pm z\sqrt{\frac{\pi(1-\pi)}{n}}[/tex]
In which
z is the z-score that has a p-value of [tex]1 - \frac{\alpha}{2}[/tex].
Sample of 120 registered voters in order to predict the winner of a local election. The Democrat candidate was favored by 62 of the respondents.
So 120 - 62 = 58 favored the Republican candidate, so:
[tex]n = 120, \pi = \frac{58}{120} = 0.4833[/tex]
99% confidence level
So [tex]\alpha = 0.01[/tex], z is the value of Z that has a p-value of [tex]1 - \frac{0.01}{2} = 0.995[/tex], so [tex]Z = 2.575[/tex].
The lower limit of this interval is:
[tex]\pi - z\sqrt{\frac{\pi(1-\pi)}{n}} = 0.4833 - 2.575\sqrt{\frac{0.4833*0.5167}{120}} = 0.3658[/tex]
The upper limit of this interval is:
[tex]\pi + z\sqrt{\frac{\pi(1-\pi)}{n}} = 0.4833 + 2.575\sqrt{\frac{0.4833*0.5167}{120}} = 0.6001[/tex]
The 99% CI for the true proportion of voters who prefer the Republican candidate is (0.3658, 0.6001). This means that we are 99% sure that the true population proportion of all voters who prefer the Republican candidate is (0.3658, 0.6001).
b. If a candidate needs a simple majority of the votes to win the election, can the Republican candidate be confident of victory? Justify your response with an appropriate statistical argument.
The upper bound of the confidence interval is above 0.5 = 50%, which meas that the candidate can be confidence of victory.

Answer:
-8,257,536·u^5·v^10
Step-by-step explanation:
The expansion of (a +b)^n is ...
(c0)a^nb^0 +(c1)a^(n-1)b^1 +(c2)a^(n-2)b^2 +... +(ck)a^(n-k)b^k +... +(cn)a^0b^n
Then the k-th term is (ck)a^(n-k)b^k, where k is counted from 0 to n.
The value of ck can be found using Pascal's triangle, or by the formula ...
ck = n!/(k!(n-k)!) . . . . where x! is the factorial of x, the product of all positive integers less than or equal to x.
This expansion has 11 terms, so the middle one is the one for k=5. That term will be ...
5th term = (10!/(5!(10-5)!)(2u)^(10-5)(-4v^2)^5
= (252)(32u^5)(-1024v^10) = -8,257,536·u^5·v^10

Answer:
-52
Step-by-step explanation:
-4(x + 10) - 6 = -3(x - 2)
Distribute the left side to get:
(-4x + -40) - 6
Now distribute the right side to get:
-3x + 6
Arrange the equation as the following:
-4x - 40 - 6 = -3x + 6
Add the like terms on each side:
-4x - 46 = -3x + 6
Do the inverse operation of each term:
-x = 52
Now we need to get x to become a positive, so we just divide -x by -1 to get x.
And 52/-1 to get our final answer of -52.

Which of the following is NOT a requirement for testing a claim about two population standard deviations or variances? A. The populations are independent. B. One of the populations is normally distributed. C. The two samples are simple random samples. D. This test requires that both populations have normal distributions.
Answer:
B. One of the populations is normally distributed.
Step-by-step explanation:
To test a claim about two population standard deviation or variance, it is imperative that the data meets certain requirements which include :
Randomness : Data must not be biased as such it must be drawn as a random sample from a larger group.
The data must be independent. That is not related to one another, the outcome of one should not rely on the outcome or value of another.
Both groups must be drawn From a population which is normally distributed.
One group being normally distributed by stribuyed while the other isn't a requirement for hypothesis testing in this scenario.
Please help me determine the general equation for the graph above as well as solve for a. Thank you.
Observe that the x coords of the roots of a polynomial are,
[tex]x_{1,2,3,4}=\{-3,0,1,4\}[/tex]
Which can be put into form,
[tex]y=a(x-x_1)(x-x_2)(x-x_3)(x-x_4)[/tex]
with data
[tex]y=a(x-(-3))(x-0)(x-1)(x-4)=ax(x+3)(x-1)(x-4)[/tex]
Now if I take any root point and insert it into the equation I won't be able to solve for y because they will always multiply to zero (ie. when I pick [tex]x=-3[/tex] the right hand side will multiply to zero,
[tex]y=-3a(-3+3)(-3-1)(-3-4)=0[/tex]
and a will be "lost" in the process.
If we observed a non-root point that we could substitute with x and y and result in a non-loss process then you could find a. But since there is no such point (I don't think you can read it of the graph) there is no other viable way to find a.
Hope this helps :)

A solid is formed by rotating the region bounded by y = x − x^2 and y = 0 about the line x = 2 . Use the shell method to find the volume of the solid.
Answer:
The volume of the resulting solid is π/2 cubic units.
Step-by-step explanation:
Please refer to the diagram below.
The shell method is given by:
[tex]\displaystyle V = 2\pi \int _a ^b r(x) h(x)\, dx[/tex]
Where the representative rectangle is parallel to the axis of revolution, r(x) is the distance from the axis of revolution to the center of the rectangle, and h(x) is the height of the rectangle.
From the diagram, we can see that r(x) = (2 - x) and that h(x) is simply y. The limits of integration are from a = 0 to b = 1. Therefore:
[tex]\displaystyle V = 2\pi \int_0^1\underbrace{\left(2-x\right)}_{r(x)}\underbrace{\left(x - x^2\right)}_{h(x)}\, dx[/tex]
Evaluate:
[tex]\displaystyle \begin{aligned} V&= 2\pi \int_0 ^1 \left(2x-2x^2-x^2+x^3\right) \, dx\\ \\ &= 2\pi\int _0^1 x^3 -3x^2 + 2x \, dx \\ \\ &= 2\pi\left(\frac{x^4}{4} - x^3 + x^2 \Bigg|_0^1\right) \\ \\ &= 2\pi \left(\frac{1}{4} - 1 + 1 \right) \\ \\ &= \frac{\pi}{2}\end{aligned}[/tex]

The distribution of widgets from a production line is known to be approximately normal with mean 2.7 inches and standard deviation 0.25 inches. About 95% of the distribution lies between what two values?
A. 2.45 inches and 3.2 inches
B. 2.45 inches and 2.95 inches
C. 2.2 inches and 3.2 inches
D. 1.95 inches and 3.45 inches
Option D is correct. 95% of the distribution lies between 1.9975inches and 3.4025inches.
To get the required range of values, we will have to first get the z-score for the two-tailed probability at a 95% confidence interval. According to the normal table, the required range is between -2.81 and 2.81
The formula for calculating the z-score is expressed as;
[tex]z=\frac{x-\overline x}{s}[/tex] where:
[tex]\overline x[/tex] is the mean
s is the standard deviation
z is the z-scores
Given the following
[tex]\overline x[/tex]=2.7 in
s = 0.25
if z = -2.81
[tex]-2.81=\frac{x-2.7}{0.25}\\x-2.7=-2.81*0.25\\x-2.7=-0.7025\\x=-0.7025+2.7\\x=1.9975[/tex]
Similarly:
[tex]2.81=\frac{x_2-2.7}{0.25}\\x_2-2.7=2.81*0.25\\x_2-2.7=0.7025\\x_2=0.7025+2.7\\x_2=3.4025[/tex]
Hence the 95% of the distribution lies between 1.9975inches and 3.4025inches.
