3. The phrase, household penetration, describes the percentage of households that purchase a particular item. The household penetration for toilet paper is 97%. You survey a random sample of 50 households and want to compute the probability that at least one of the households does not purchase toilet paper. Which of the following is appropriate for modeling this distribution?
(A)Binomial distribution
(B)Geometric distribution
(C)Normal distribution
(D)t distribution
(E)Chi-square distribution
Answers
Answer:
A) Binomial Distribution
Explanation:
This situation is binary because there are two options. Either success (buy toilet paper) or failure (do not buy toilet paper). The trials are independent, there are a fixed number of trials, and the probability of success remains the same for each trial. Therefore, it is a binomial distribution.

8. Candidate A and Candidate B are running for president. You are planning a survey to determine what proportion of registered voters plan to vote for Candidate A (p). You will contact a random sample of registered voters. You want to estimate p with 99% confidence and a margin of error no greater than 0.01. What is the minimum number of registered voters you will need to survey in order to meet these requirements?
(A)97
(B)166
(C)6,766
(D)9,604
(E)16,590
Answers
Answer:
The correct answer is (E).
The minimum sample size of registered voters that are needs to be surveyed in order to meet these requirements is 16590 registered voters.
What is the required sample size?The sample size, n, can be calculated using the formula below:
[tex]n = \frac{z^{2}×p(1-p)}{(\frac{ε}{2}) ^{2}}[/tex]
where:
z = is the z scoreε is the margin of errorpis the population proportionFor the data provided:
z for 99% confidence = 2.58
ε/2 = 0.005
p = 0.5
Substituting the values:
[tex]n = \frac{2.58^{2}×0.5(1-0.5)}{0.005^{2}} = 16641[/tex]
Therefore, the minimum sample size of registered voters that are needs to be surveyed in order to meet these requirements is 16590 registered voters.

Tara mows lawns as a summer job. She
charges $9.50 for each lawn plus $2.50 for
every hour she works. The gasoline she needs
to mow an average lawn costs $1.85. Write an
expression for the profit Tara makes from
cutting a single lawn.
Answers
Answer:
9.50+(2.50x)1.85
Explanation:
I think this might be it because you don't really get the time she works for a lawn
Answer:
7.65 + 2.50h
Explanation:
The original expression for finding her profit is:
($9.50x + $2.50h) - 1.85x
x being the number of lawns she mows
h being the number of hours she works
If she were to only mow one lawn, the expression would be:
($9.50(1) + $2.50h) - 1.85(1)
h remains constant because we do not know the number of hours she works for
The above expression simplified:
($9.50 + $2.50h) - 1.85
So, I do... $9.50 - 1.85 to get...
$7.65 +$2.50h

4. An organization that strives to hold agencies accountable for truth in news reporting plans to select a random sample of 100 news stories from major U.S. news agencies in order to estimate the proportion of news stories produced by major U.S. news agencies that contain false information. A 90 percent confidence interval for the proportion of all news stories that contain false information will then be constructed. Before selecting the sample, the organization determines that they want to make the margin of error as small as possible. Which of the following is the best way for them to decrease the margin of error?
(A)Increase the confidence level to 95%.
(B)Increase the confidence level to 99%.
(C) Include a wider diversity of sources, such as local and international news agencies.
(D)Include news stories over a broad period of time, such as over the past decade.
(E) Increase the sample size.
Answers
Answer: E) Increase the sample size
Explanation: with the confidence level and sample proportion held constant, the margin of error will decrease as the sample size increases.
