A business student is interested in estimating the 90% confidence interval for the proportion of students who bring laptops to campus. He wishes a precise estimate and is willing to draw a large sample that will keep the sample proportion within seven percentage points of the population proportion. What is the minimum sample size required by this student, given that no prior estimate of the population proportion is available

Answers

Answer 1

Answer:

n = 106

Step-by-step explanation:

Given  

p = 0.5 and 1-p = q = 0.5

Margin of error = 0.08  

Confidence level = 90%  

Z score for 90% confidence level =     1.65

As we know -  

Margin of error = z * Sqrt (pq/n)

Substituting the given value, we get –  

0.08 = 1.65 * Sqrt (0.5*0.5/n)

Squaring both the sides and solving, we get  

n = 1.65^2*0.5^2/0.08^2

n = 106.34 = 106

You measure 34 textbooks' weights, and find they have a mean weight of 69 ounces. Assume the population standard deviation is 8.2 ounces. Based on this, construct a 95% confidence interval for the true population mean textbook weight. Give your answers as decimals, to two places

Answers

Answer:

The 95% confidence interval for the true population mean textbook weight is between 66.24 and 71.76 ounces.

Step-by-step explanation:

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.

[tex]M = 1.96\frac{8.2}{\sqrt{34}} = 2.76[/tex]

The lower end of the interval is the sample mean subtracted by M. So it is 69 - 2.76 = 66.24 ounces

The upper end of the interval is the sample mean added to M. So it is 69 + 2.76 = 71.76 ounces.

The 95% confidence interval for the true population mean textbook weight is between 66.24 and 71.76 ounces.

What is the equivalent recursive definition for an = 12+ (n - 1)3?

B. a1 = 12, An = 30n-1
C. a1 = 12, Un = On-1 +3
D. a1 = n, an= 1201-1+3

Answers

Answer:

[tex]A_1 = 12[/tex]

[tex]A_n = A_{n-1} + 3[/tex]

Step-by-step explanation:

Given

[tex]A_n =12+(n-1)3[/tex]

Required

Write as recursive

We have:

[tex]A_n =12+(n-1)3[/tex]

Open bracket

[tex]A_n =12+3n-3[/tex]

[tex]A_n =12-3+3n[/tex]

[tex]A_n =9+3n[/tex]

Calculate few terms

[tex]A_1 =9+3*1 = 9 + 3 = 12[/tex]

[tex]A_2 =9+3*2 = 9 + 6 = 15[/tex]

[tex]A_3 =9+3*3 = 9 + 9 = 18[/tex]

The above shows that the rule is to add 3.

So, we have:

[tex]A_1 = 12[/tex]

[tex]A_n = A_{n-1} + 3[/tex]

220 cubic units.

Answer:

Solution given:

for small cylinder

r=1

and for large cylinder

R=5+1=6

Now

Volume of solid=πR²h-πr²h=πh(R²-r²)

=3.14*2(6²-1²)=219.8 =220 units ³.

Small cylinder is r=1

Large cylinder is R= 5+1 =6

Height (h) =2

Volume of solid,

→ πR²h-πr²h

→ πh(R²-r²)

→ 3.14 × 2(6²-1²)

Answer:

x = 14

Step-by-step explanation:

Please note, the word trapezium is a synonym for the word trapezoid.

This problem gives one the area of the trapezoid, a well as one of the measurements of a base and the height of the figure. One is asked to find the length of the other base. This can be done by using the formula to find the area of a trapezoid. This formula is the following,

[tex]A=(h)(\frac{b_1+b_2}{2})[/tex]

Where (A) represents the area of a trapezoid, ([tex]b_1[/tex]) and ([tex]b_2[/tex]) represents the bases and (h) represents the height. Substitute in the given values and solve for the unknown base.

[tex]b_1=7\\h=6\\A=84[/tex]

[tex]A=(h)(\frac{b_1+b_2}{2})\\[/tex]

Substitute,

[tex]84=6(\frac{7+b_2}{2})\\[/tex]

Inverse operations,

[tex]84=6(\frac{7+b_2}{2})[/tex]

[tex]14=\frac{7+b_2}{2}[/tex]

[tex]28=7+b_2[/tex]

What is the probability that a randomly selected day in the summer will be rainy if it’s cloudy?

Answers

Answer:

0.872

Step-by-step explanation:

Given that :

P(cloudy) = P(C) = 0.94

P(cloudy and rainy) = P(C n R) = 0.82

Probability that a given day will be rainy if it is cloudy ; this is a conditional probability problem:

Recall ; P(A|B) = P(AnB) / P(B)

P(R|C) = P(C n R) / P(C) = 0.82 / 0.94 = 0.872

Answer:

x = 9

Step-by-step explanation:

angle <1 and angle <2 is complementary and their sum is 90 degrees

3x + 5x + 18 = 90 add like terms

8x + 18 = 90 subtract 18 from both sides

8x = 72 divide both sides by 8

x = 9 to find the measure of angle <1 replace x with the value we found

Answers

Answer:

a translation of 2 units to the left and 7 units up

Step-by-step explanation:

Translation of points (x,y)

At point x, the function can be translated to the left or to the right.

(x-a) is the translation of the point a units to the left, and (x+a) is the translation of the point a units to the right.

At point x, the function can be translated up or down. y+a represents a shift of a units up, and y-a represents a shift of a units down.

(x, y) = (x - 2, y + 7)

x - 2: 2 units to the left.

y + 7: 7 units up

Answers

Answer:

k>1.25

Step-by-step explanation:

The given quadratic equation is :

(k – 1)x² + x + 1 = 0

We need to find all values of k for which the above equation has two real and unequal roots.

For a quadratic equation ax²+bx+c=0, for real and unequal roots,

b²-4ac>0

Here, a = (k-1), b = 1 and c = 1

Put all the values,

1²-4×(k-1)1>0

k>1.25

S, k can take values more than 1.25. Hence, it can take values 1.5, 1.75.

Assume that you take out a $2000 loan for 48 months at 3.5% APR. How much total interest will you have paid at the end of the 48 months? (Round your answer to the nearest cent.)
$

Answers

Step-by-step explanation:

Are you using a particular calculator for the class? For this class, is the payment expected to be compounded monthly?

There is a function in Microsoft Excel that will calculate the payment for you, but the answer is going to be slightly different for a business math class than a calculus-based statistics class.

The excel formula to calculate a payment is

=PMT(0.04/12,60,25000,0)

.04/12 is the interest APR on a monthly basis

60 is the number of months

25000 is the current amount owed

0 is the future balance after 60 payments

The answer from Excel is $460.41 -- ignore the negative sign for these purposes.

Multiply that number by the 60 months you pay and you get a total paid of $27,624.78

Remove the initial 25K and $2,624.78 is your interest amount.

By the way, I used the simplifying assumptions that the problem meant "interest rate" when it said "APR", and that the rate would compound monthly. In the actual loan industry, the interest rate is only part of the calculation for APR, a

A lonely immigrant from Austria slips out of her stage clothes and kicks off her heels. Carefully removing her movie makeup, she's dissatisfied that she's been overlooked for more significant roles. Instead of throwing a pity party, however, she heads determinedly for her drafting table, a place where she has previously invented an improved traffic stoplight. This is where she'll prove to the world that she's more than a pretty face. This is the real-life story of Hedy Lamarr, Hollywood actress turned tech hero. An inventor whose contributions helped develop a system used in Bluetooth, GPS and Wi-Fi.She had a knack for designing problem-solving technologies. Transforming the drawing room in her house into an innovation studio with a drafting table and the necessary tools Lamarr invented an aid to help people with limited mobility get in and out of the bath. She also invented a fluorescent dog collar and a bouillon cube* that would dissolve to turn water into soda. Her best-known success was a passion project that still has applications today. The secret communication system" she developed with composer George Antheil, a neighbor and friend, was the precursor to today's top wireless technologies. Together, they developed a radio communication system based on the 88 piano keys. It was a success, and the duo received a patent for their work in 1942. Unfortunately, the U.S. Navy ignored their technological feat for another 20 years. Late, the system became the precursor to modern wireless technologies. Their work remained unrecognized until 1997, when the Electronic Frontier Foundation acknowledged Lamarr and Antheil. When Lamarr heard the EFF was giving her an award, her first words were, 'Well, it's about time.'
