2. An economist reports that 576 out of a sample of 1,200 middle-income American households participate in the stock market. A confidence interval of [0.468, 0.492] was calculated. What confidence level was used in this calculation

Answers

Answer 1

Answer:

Confidence level  = 59.46%

Step-by-step explanation:

Given that:

An economist reports that 576 out of a sample of 1,200 middle-income American households participate in the stock market.

sample mean = 576

sample size = 1200

The sample proportion [tex]\hat p[/tex] = x/n

The sample proportion [tex]\hat p[/tex] = 576/1200 = 0.48

A confidence interval of [0.468, 0.492] was calculated. What confidence level was used in this calculation?

The  confidence interval level can be determined by using the formula:

[tex]M.E =Z_{critical} \times \sqrt{\dfrac{\hat p (1- \hat p)}{n}}[/tex]

If the calculated confidence interval was [0.468, 0.492]

Then,

[tex]\hat p[/tex]  - M.E = 0.468

0.48 -M.E = 0.468

0.48 - 0.468 = M.E

0.012 = M.E

M.E = 0.012

NOW;

[tex]0. 012 =Z_{critical} \times \sqrt{\dfrac{0.48 (1- 0.48)}{1200}}[/tex]

[tex]0. 012 =Z_{critical} \times \sqrt{\dfrac{0.48 (0.52)}{1200}}[/tex]

[tex]0. 012 =Z_{critical} \times \sqrt{\dfrac{0.2496}{1200}}[/tex]

[tex]0. 012 =Z_{critical} \times \sqrt{2.08\times10^{-4}}[/tex]

[tex]0. 012 =Z_{critical} \times 0.01442[/tex]

[tex]\dfrac{0. 012}{0.01442} =Z_{critical}[/tex]

[tex]Z_{critical} =0.8322[/tex]

From the standard normal tables,

the p - value at [tex]Z_{critical} =0.8322[/tex] =  0.7973

Since the test is two tailed

[tex]1 - \alpha/2= 0.7973[/tex]

[tex]\alpha/2= 1-0.7973[/tex]

[tex]\alpha/2= 0.2027[/tex]

[tex]\alpha= 0.2027 \times 2[/tex]

[tex]\alpha= 0.4054[/tex]

the level of significance = 0.4054

Confidence level = 1 - level of significance

Confidence level = 1 - 0.4054

Confidence level = 0.5946

Confidence level  = 59.46%

Suppose that you borrow $1000.00 from a friend and promise to pay back $1390.00 in 2 years. What simple interest rate will you pay?
The simple interest rate is % (Round to the nearest tenth as needed.)

Answers

Answer:

19.5%

Step-by-step explanation:

Use the formula I = prt, where I is the interest money, p is the starting amount of money, r is the interest rate, and t is the time that the money was borrowed.

Plug in the values and solve for r:

390 = (1000)(r)(2)

390 = 2000r

0.195 = r

r = 19.5%

Answer:

19.5%

Step-by-step explanation:

Simple Interest = Principal x Time x Rate in % / 100

SI = 1000 x 2 x a / 100

=> SI = 10 x 2 x a

=> SI = 20a

Total Amount = SI + Principal

=> 1390 = 20a + 1000

=> 1390 - 1000 = 20a +1000 - 1000

=> 390 = 20a

=> 390/20 = 20a/20

=> 19.5 = a

Let's recheck

=> 1000 x 2 x 19.5 /100

=> 10 x 2 x 19.5

=> 195 x 2

=> 390

1390 = 390 + 1000

=> 1390 = 1390

So, the interest rate is 19.5 %

If the weight (in grams) of cereal in a box of Lucky Charms is N(470,5), what is the probability that the box will contain less than the advertised weight of 453 g?

Answers

Answer:

The probability that the box will contain less than the advertised weight of 453 g is 0.00034.

Step-by-step explanation:

Let X represent the weight (in grams) of cereal in a box of Lucky Charms.

It is provided that X follows a Normal distribution with parameters, μ = 470 and σ = 5.

Compute the probability that the box will contain less than the advertised weight of 453 g as follows:

[tex]P(X<453)=P(\frac{X-\mu}{\sigma}<\frac{453-470}{5})[/tex]

                  [tex]=P(Z<-3.4)\\=0.00034[/tex]

*Use the z-table.

Thus, the probability that the box will contain less than the advertised weight of 453 g is 0.00034.

A certain game involves tossing 3 fair coins, and it pays .14 for 3 heads, .06 for 2 heads, and .01 for 1 head. The expected winnings are?

Answers

Answer:

Total expected amount = $0.04375

Step-by-step explanation:

We need to calculate probability of getting heads on every combination of coin tosses

HHH = 1/8 = 3 heads

HHT = 1/8 = 2 heads

HTH = 1/8 = 2 heads

HTT = 1/8 = 1 head

THH = 1/8 = 2 heads

THT = 1/8 = 1 head

TTH = 1/8 = 1 head

TTT = 1/8 = 0 head

So the probability of 3 heads is 1/8 and the amount is (1/8)* 0.14 = $0.0175

Probability of 2 heads is 3/8 and the amount is (3/8) * 0.06 = $0.0225

Probability of 1 head is 3/8 and amount is (3/8) * 0.01 = $0.00375

Total expected amount = 0.00375 + 0.0225 + 0.0175

Total expected amount = $0.04375

confidence interavls for a population proportion. suppose that a random sample of 1000 mortgage loans that were defaulted within the first year reveals 410 of these loans were approved on hte basis of falsified applications. what is point estiamte of and a 95% confidence interval for p, the proportion of all first year defaults that are approved on the basis of flsified application

Answers

Answer:

The 95% confidence interval is  [tex]0.3795 < p < 0.4405[/tex]

Step-by-step explanation:

From the question we are told that

     The sample size is  [tex]n = 1000[/tex]

      The  number of approved loan is  k =  410

       

Generally the sample proportion is mathematically represented as

       [tex]\r p = \frac{k}{n}[/tex]

substituting values

      [tex]\r p = \frac{410}{1000}[/tex]

       [tex]\r p = 0.41[/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,the value is  

         [tex]Z_{\frac{\alpha }{2} } =Z_{\frac{0.05 }{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{ 0.41(1- 0.41)}{1000} }[/tex]

        [tex]E = 0.03048[/tex]

The 95% confidence interval for p is mathematically represented  as

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

substituting values

     [tex]0.41 - 0.03048 < p < 0.41 + 0.03048[/tex]

    [tex]0.3795 < p < 0.4405[/tex]

The graph of F(x), shown below, has the same shape as the graph of
G(x) = x, but it is shifted up 2 units. What is its equation?

Answers

Greetings from Brasil...

We know that the translations are established as follows:

→ Horizontal

F(X + k) ⇒ k units to the left

F(X - k) ⇒ k units to the right

→ Vertical

F(X) + k ⇒ k units up

F(X) - k ⇒ k units down

G(X) = X  and F(X) is G(X) shifted up 2 units.

In the statement it is said that there was a translation of 2 units upwards, so

F(X) = G(X) + k     where k = 2 units up

F(X) = X + 2

Joey’s pizza sells large cheese pizzas for $12.00. Each additional topping costs $0.50. Basketball Boosters bought 12 large pizzas, each with 3 toppings. There are 8 slices per pizza. How much does it cost per slice? Round to the nearest cent.

Answers

Answer:

So first you do $0.50 x 3 = 1.5

then you add that to $12.00

$12.00 + 1.5 = 13.5

13.5 is the cost of one pizza.

Since they bought 12:

The total cost of the 12 pizza is $162 <== not important

13.5 divided by 8 is 1.687

round 1.56875 to the nearest cent 1.7 = $2

so each slice costs $2

The probability that a voter chosen at random is in the 18 to 20 years old age range is =  4.2/ 134.8= 0.0311572

Step-by-step explanation:

We can find the probability by simply dividing the frequency of the ages range of 18-20 by the total frequency.

Ages                Frequency

18 to 20             4.2

21 to 24             7.8

25 to 34           20.8

35 to 44           23.7

45 to 64           50.1

65 and over       28.2

∑                        134.8

The probability of an event is given by the occurrence of an event by the total occurrences .

So

Here the occurrence of ages 18-20 is given by 4.2

and the total frequency is 134.8

The probability that a voter chosen at random is in the 18 to 20 years old age range is =  4.2/ 134.8= 0.0311572

Combine like terms. What is a simpler form of each expression? 4c-4d+8c-3d

12c-7d

Step-by-step explanation:

[tex]4c-4d+8c-3d=0\\4c+8c=3d+4d\\12c=7d\\12c-7d[/tex]

Answer: 12c-7d

===============================================

Explanation:

The terms 4c and 8c are one pair of like terms that combine to 4c+8c = 12c. We add 4 and 8 to get 12, then tack a 'c' at the end

The other pair of like terms are -4d and -3d. They combine to -7d for similar reasoning.

12c and -7d are not like terms, so we can't combine them and we stop here.

-----------

One way to think of combining like terms is consider simplifying 2c+3c. You could say that 2c represents having 2 cups while 3c is having 3 cups. Writing 2c+3c means we start with 2 cups and add on 3 more getting a total of 2+3 = 5 cups. Symbolically we would then write 5c. Therefore 2c+3c = 5c.

A publishing company claims that in fall 2019, the average price of college textbooks for a single semester is $385. Suppose you decide to collect data from a random sample of students to assess whether the publisher's claim is reasonable, and you find that in a random sample of 22 college students, the mean price of textbooks for the fall 2019 semester was $433.50 with a standard deviation of $86.92. At the 0.01 significance level, is there sufficient evidence to conclude that the mean price of college textbooks for a single semester is different from the value claimed by the publisher?

n < 30 then we must use t - distrbution

degree of freedom   n  - 1     df = 22 - 1     df = 21

As the question mentions " different " that means,  a two-tail test

At 0,01 significance level     α  = 0,01       α/2  =  0,005

and t(c)  = 2,831

Test Hypothesis

Null Hypothesis                      H₀          μ  =  μ₀

Alternative hypothesis           Hₐ          μ  ≠  μ₀

To calculate t(s)

t(s)  =  (  μ  -  μ₀ ) /σ/√n

t(s)  =  (  433,50 - 385 ) / 86,92 / √22

t(s)  =  2,6171

Comparing   t(c)   and t(s)

t(s) < t(c)

Then  t(s) is in the acceptance region we accept H₀. We don´t have enough evidence to claim that mean price differs from publisher claim

What is the volume of a square pyramid whose length of one side of its base is 9cm and whose height is 15cm. Show your work

Answers

Answer:

The answer is 405cm³

Step-by-step explanation:

Volume of a pyramid is given by

[tex]V = \frac{1}{3} \times area \: of \: base \: \: \times height[/tex]

height = 15cm

From the question the pyramid is a square pyramid which means it's base is a square

Area of a square = l²

where l is the length of one side

l = 9cm

Area of square = 9² = 81cm²

So the volume of the pyramid is

[tex]V = \frac{1}{3} \times 81 \times 15[/tex]

[tex]V = 27 \times 15[/tex]

We have the final answer as

V = 405 cm³

Therefore the volume of the pyramid is

A quality control manager is concerned about variability of the net weight of his company’s individual yogurt cups. To check the consistency, he takes a random sample of sixteen 6-ounce yogurt cups and finds the mean of the sampled weights to be 5.85 ounces and the sample standard deviation to be 0.2 ounce.

Requried:
a. Test the hypotheses H0: µ ≥ 6 Ha: µ < 6 at the 5% level of significance. Assume the population of yogurt-cup net weights is approximately normally distributed.
b. Based on the results of the test, will the manager be satisfied that the company is not under-filling its cups?
c. State the decision rule, the test statistic, and the manager’s decision.

Answers

Answer:

a) We reject H₀

b) The manager won´t be satisfied with nominal filling its cup

c) See step-by-step explanation

Step-by-step explanation:

Normal distribution  n <  30, therefore, we should use t - student table

Sample size  n  =  16

degree of freedom  =   df =  n - 1     df = 15

Sample mean    μ  = 5,85 ou

Sample standard deviation  is    s = 0,2 ou

Hypothesis test

Null hypothesis                               H₀              μ   >=  μ₀

Alternative hypothesis                   Hₐ               μ   <   μ₀

CI  = 95 %    then   α = 5 %     α = 0,05     α/2  =  0,025

Then in t-student table we find  t(c) = 1,753

To calculate  t(s)

t(s) =  (   μ   -  μ₀  ) s/√n

t(s)  =   ( 5,85 -  6 ) / 0,2/√16

t(s)  =  -  0,15* 4 / 0,2

t(s)  =  -  3

To compare  t(s) and t(c)

|t(s)| > |t(c)|        3 > 1,753

Then t(s) is in the rejection region. We should reject H₀. Data indicate that at 95 % of CI μ seems to be smaller than 6 ou

b) The manager won´t be satisfied with nominal filling its cup

The class intervals are inclusive of both upper and lower limits. The difference between the lower limits of two consecutive classes or upper limits of two consecutive classes must be the same.

As we see the difference here is that of 5 between the two upper or lower limits of consecutive classes.

The histogram is attached which shows the class intervals along x- axis and data frequency along y- axis.

You have found the following ages (in years) of all 666 lions at your local zoo: 13,2,1,5,2,7 What is the average age of the lions at your zoo? What is the standard deviation? Average age: _____ years old Standard deviation: ____ years

Answers

Answer:

[tex]Mean = 5[/tex]

[tex]S_x = 4.123[/tex]

Step-by-step explanation:

Given

Number of Lions, n: 6

Ages: 13, 2, 1, 5, 2, 7

Required

Determine the:

1. Mean

2. Standard Deviation

Mean is calculated as;

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

[tex]Mean = \frac{13+2+1+5+2+7}{6}[/tex]

[tex]Mean = \frac{30}{6}[/tex]

[tex]Mean = 5[/tex]

Standard Deviation is calculated as follows

[tex]S_x = \sqrt{\frac{\sum (x_i - Mx)^2}{N}}[/tex]

Where Mx represent mean

Substitute values for x, Mean and Land

[tex]S_x = \sqrt{\frac{(13 - 5)^2+(2 - 5)^2+(1 - 5)^2+(5 - 5)^2+(2 - 5)^2+(7 - 5)^2}{6}}[/tex]

[tex]S_x = \sqrt{\frac{(8)^2+(- 3)^2+(-4)^2+(0)^2+(-3)^2+(2)^2}{6}}[/tex]

[tex]S_x = \sqrt\frac{64+9+16+0+9+4}{6}}[/tex]

[tex]S_x = \sqrt\frac{102}{6}}[/tex]

[tex]S_x = \sqrt{17}[/tex]

[tex]S_x = 4.123[/tex]

The mean and standard deviation is 5 and 4.123 respectively

We want to find the mean or average and the standard deviation of the given set.

The average age is 5 years old and the standard deviation is 4.52 years old.

We know that for a general set of N elements {x₁, x₂, ..., xₙ} the average or mean is given by:

[tex]M = \frac{x_1 + x_2 + ... + x_n}{N}[/tex]

And the standard deviation is given by:

[tex]S = \sqrt{\frac{(x_1 - M)^2 + ... + (x_n - M)^2}{N - 1}[/tex]

The given set is:

{13, 2, 1, 5, 2, 7}

Now we just need to use the two given formulas for our set.

The mean is:

[tex]M = \frac{13 + 2 + 1+ 5 + 2 +7}{6} = 5[/tex]

And the standard deviation is:

[tex]S = \sqrt{\frac{(13 - 5)^2 + (2 - 5)^2 + (1 - 5)^2 + (5 - 5)^2 + (2 - 5)^2 + (7 - 5)^2}{6 - 1} } = 4.52[/tex]

So the average age is 5 years old and the standard deviation is 4.52 years old.
