A controversial bill is being debated in the state legislature. Representative Williams wants to estimate within 2 percentage points and with 95% confidence the difference in the proportion of her male and female constituents who favor the bill. What sample size should she obtain?

Answers

Answer 1

Answer:

The sample size is  [tex]n = 2401[/tex]

Step-by-step explanation:

From the question we are told that

    The margin of  error is  [tex]E= 2\% = 0.02[/tex]

Given that the  confidence level is  95% then the level of significance is mathematically evaluated as

          [tex]\alpha = (100 - 95)\%[/tex]

            [tex]\alpha = 5\% = 0.05[/tex]

The  critical value of [tex]\frac{\alpha }{2}[/tex]  obtained from the normal distribution table is   [tex]Z_{\frac{\alpha }{2} } = 1.96[/tex]  

Let assume that the sample proportion is  [tex]\r p = 0.5[/tex]

 Generally the sample size is evaluated as

            [tex]n = [\frac{Z_{\frac{\alpha }{2} }}{E} ]^2 * \r p ( 1- \r p )[/tex]

            [tex]n = [\frac{1.96}{0.02} ]^2 * 0.5 ( 1- 0.5 )[/tex]

            [tex]n = 2401[/tex]

Given that a is a multiple of 456, find the greatest common divisor of 3a^3+a^2+4a+57 and a.

Answers

Answer: 57

Step-by-step explanation:

Given: a is a multiple of 456

Let [tex]a = 456 x[/tex]

Then, expression [tex]3a^3+a^2+4a+57 =3(456x)^3+(456x)^2+4(456x)+57[/tex]

Since 456 = 57 x 8

Then, [tex]3(456x)^3+(456x)^2+4(456x)+57=3(57\times 8x)^3+(57\times 8x)^2+4(57\times 8x)+57[/tex]

[tex]=3(57)^3\times (8x)^3+(57)^2\times (8x)^2+4(57)\times (8x)+57[/tex]

Taking 57 out as common

[tex]=57[3(57)^2\times (8x)^3+(57)\times (8x)^2+4\times (8x)+1][/tex]

Now, the greatest common divisor of [tex]a = 456 x[/tex] and [tex]3a^3+a^2+4a+57=57[3(57)^2\times (8x)^3+(57)\times (8x)^2+4\times (8x)+1][/tex] is 57.

Hence, the greatest common divisor of 3a^3+a^2+4a+57 and a is 57.

Find the mean, variance, and standard deviation of the binomial distribution with the given values of n and p. n = 50 p = 0.2

Answers

Answer:

The mean, variance, and standard deviation of the binomial distribution are 10, 8, and 2.83 respectively.

Step-by-step explanation:

We have to find the mean, variance, and standard deviation of the binomial distribution with the given values of n and p, i.e; n = 50 p = 0.2.

Let X = binomial random variable

So, X ~ Binom(n = 50, p = 0.2)

Now, the mean of the binomial distribution is given by;

         Mean of X, E(X) = n [tex]\times[/tex] p

                                    = 50 [tex]\times[/tex] 0.2 = 10

Now, the variance of the binomial distribution is given by;

        Variance of X, V(X) = n [tex]\times[/tex] p [tex]\times[/tex] (1 - p)

                                         = 50 [tex]\times[/tex] 0.2 [tex]\times[/tex] (1 - 0.2)

                                         = 10 [tex]\times[/tex] 0.8 = 8

Also, the standard deviation of the binomial distribution is given by;

        Standard deviation of X, S.D.(X) = [tex]\sqrt{\text{n} \times \text{p} \times (1 - \text{p})}[/tex]

                                                              = [tex]\sqrt{\text{50} \times \text{0.2} \times (1 - \text{0.2})}[/tex]

                                                              = [tex]\sqrt{8}[/tex] = 2.83

In training to run a half marathon, Jenny ran 2/5 hours on Tuesday, 11/6 hours on
Thursday, and 21/15 hours on Saturday. What is the total amount of hours that Jenny
ran this week? (Simplify your answer and state it as a mixed number.)
I​

Answers

Answer:

Total hours that Jenny ran = 3.63 hours.

Step-by-step explanation:

Jenny ran on Tuesday for = 2/5 hours or 0.4 hours.

Time consumed to run on Thursday = 11/6 hours or 1.83 hours.

Time consumed to run on Saturday = 21/ 15 hours or 1.4 hours.

Here, the total hours can be calculated by just adding all the running hours. So the running hours of Tuesday, Thursday, and Saturday will be added to find the total hours.

Total hours that Jenny ran = 0.4 + 1.83 + 1.4 = 3.63 hours.

If you want to turn a ball into a giant water balloon, how many cubic feet of lake water can you fill it with if the radius of this balloon is 1.5 feet?

Answers

Answer:

14.13 cubic feet of lake water can fill the given balloon.

Step-by-step explanation:

concept used:

volume of sphere = 4/3 [tex]\pi r^3[/tex]

where r is the radius of sphere

we take [tex]\pi[/tex] = 3.14

_____________________________________

shape of balloon can be taken as spherical.

Amount water filled in the balloon will be equal to capacity of balloon which is equal to volume of spherical balloon.

Given radius of balloon = 1.5 feet

Thus, volume of balloon = 4/3 [tex]\pi[/tex] 1.5^3 = 4/3*3.14*1.5^3

volume of balloon = 42.39/3 = 14.13 cubic feet

Thus, 14.13 cubic feet of lake water can fill the given balloon.

Answers

Answer: a. 0.4 × 0.15 = 0.060

Step-by-step explanation: Probability of the complement of an event is the one that is not part of the event.

For P(A):

P(A') = 1 - 0.6

P(A') = 0.4

For P(B):

P(B') = 1 - 0.85

P(B') = 0.15

To determine probability of A' and B':

P(A' and B') = P(A')*P(B')

P(A' and B') = 0.4*0.15

P(A' and B') = 0.06

Probability of the complement of the event is 0.060

Please tell me the answer ASAP Lynette's average score on five tests is 18. If she scores 24 points on her sixth test, what is her average score on all six tests? Show Your Work

Answers

Answer:

The average score of 6 tests is 19.

Step-by-step explanation:

Given that the average score of 5 tests is 18. So first, we have to find the total number of scores for 5 tests :

[tex]let \: x = total \: no. \: of \: scores[/tex]

[tex] \frac{x}{5} = 18[/tex]

[tex]x = 18 \times 5[/tex]

[tex]x = 90[/tex]

We have found out that the total scores for 5 tests is 90. So we have to find the average of 6 scores :

[tex] \frac{x + 24}{5 + 1} = \frac{90 + 24}{6} = \frac{114}{6} = 19[/tex]

[tex] \LARGE{ \boxed{ \rm{ \pink{Solution : )}}}}[/tex]

Given:Average score in 5 tests = 18He scored 24 points in 6th point

To FinD:Find the average score in all six tests?

How to find?

We need to know how to find the average

☄ For this case, We are gonna find average score...!

[tex] \large{ \boxed{ \sf{Avg. \: score = \frac{Total \: score}{No. \: of \: tests} }}}[/tex]

So, Let's proceed further towards solution....

Solution:

We have,

Avg. score = 18No. of tests = 5

Finding total score in 5 tests,

⇛ Total score = Avg. score × No. of tests

⇛ Total score = 18 × 5

⇛ Total score = 90

According to question,

He scored 24 marks in 6th test

⇛ Total score now = 90 + 24 = 114

No. of tests = 6

Finding the average score of 6 tests,

⇛ Avg. score = 114 / 6

⇛ Avg. score = 19 points

☄ Avg. score of lynette in 6 tests = 19

Answers

Answer:

2.8 < x < 5.4

Step-by-step explanation:

Given the triangle with two known sides, 4.1 and 1.3, the range of possible values of the third side, x, can be ascertained by considering the triangle inequality theorem.

According to the theorem, when you add any two of the angles in a triangle, it should give you a value greater than the third side.

If a, b, and c are 3 sides of a triangle, the theorem implies that:

a + b > c.

Therefore, a - b < c < a + b

We can use this logic to find the possibly values of x in the given triangle above.

Thus,

4.1 - 1.3 < x < 4.1 + 1.3

2.8 < x < 5.4

Range of possible sizes of x is 2.8 < x < 5.4

Line MN passes through points M(4, 3) and N(7, 12). If the equation of the line is written in slope-intercept form, y = mx + b, what is the value of b? –15 –9 3 9

Answers

Answer:

b = -9.

Step-by-step explanation:

The line passes through (4, 3) and (7, 12). First, we need to find the slope: the rise over the run.

(12 - 3) / (7 - 4) = 9 / 3 = 3.

Now that we have the slope, we can say that m = 3. So, we have an equation of y = 3x + b. To find b, we can use M(4, 3) and say that y = 3 and x = 4.

3 = 3 * 4 + b

b + 12 = 3

b = -9.

Hope this helps!

The value of b in the equation is -9

How to determine the value of b?

The points are given as:

M(4, 3) and N(7, 12)

The equation is then calculated using:

[tex]y = \frac{y_2 -y_1}{x_2 -x_1} * (x - x_1) + y_1[/tex]

This gives

[tex]y = \frac{12 -3}{7 -4} * (x - 4) + 3[/tex]

Evaluate the quotient

y = 3 * (x - 4) + 3

Open the bracket

y = 3x - 12 + 3

Evaluate the difference

y = 3x - 9

Hence, the value of b is -9

Here is the complete question:

a. Statistically significant at 0.01

b. Not statistically significant

Answer:

The test is significant

Step-by-step explanation:

When a p value is smaller than or less than alpha we say it is statistically significant.

We are testing the p value or likelihood of 0005 against a significant level of 0.01

P value = 0.005 < 0.01

0.005 is less than 0.01 which shows the test to be significant.

The decision rule would be to reject the null hypothesis and say the result is statistically significant.

During the school year, there were 315 total points scored between basketball, soccer, baseball, and football. The baseball team scored 55 points. The soccer team scored twice as much as the baseball team. The football team scored 0.5 more than 1.5 times as much as the baseball team. How many points did the basketball team score?

Answers

Answer:

67.5p.

Step-by-step explanation:

315p in total.

- Baseball has 55p.

- Soccer teams points = 55x2 = 110p.

-  Football team points = 110 x 0.5 = 55 x 1.5 = 82.5p.

So then you just do 315p - 82.5p - 55p - 110p = 67.5p

Suppose that a random sample of 16 measures from a normally distributed population gives a sample mean of x=13.5 and a sample standard deviation of s=6. the null hypothesis is equal to 15 and the alternative hypothesis is not equal to 15. using hypothesis testing for t values do you reject the null hypothesis at alpha=.10 level of significance?

Answers

Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:

The summary of the statistics given include:

population mean [tex]\mu[/tex] = 15

sample mean [tex]\oerline x[/tex] = 13.5

sample size n = 16

standard deviation s = 6

The level of significance ∝ = 0.10

The  null and the alternative hypothesis can be computed as follows:

[tex]\mathtt{H_o: \mu = 15} \\ \\ \mathtt{H_1 : \mu \neq 15}[/tex]

Since this test is two tailed, the t- test can be calculated by using the formula:

[tex]t = \dfrac{\overline x - \mu}{\dfrac{\sigma }{\sqrt{n}}}[/tex]

[tex]t = \dfrac{13.5 - 15}{\dfrac{6}{\sqrt{16}}}[/tex]

[tex]t = \dfrac{- 1.5}{\dfrac{6}{4}}[/tex]

[tex]t = \dfrac{- 1.5\times 4}{6}}[/tex]

[tex]t = \dfrac{- 6.0}{6}}[/tex]

t = - 1

degree of freedom = n - 1

degree of freedom = 16 - 1

degree of freedom = 15

From the standard normal t probability distribution table, the p value when t = -1 at  0.10 level of significance, the p - value = 0.3332

Decision Rule: We fail to reject the null hypothesis since the p-value is greater than the level of significance at 0.10

Conclusion: Therefore, we can conclude that  there is insufficient evidence at the 0.10 level of significance to conclude that the population  mean μ is different than 15.

A football team starts on the 10 yard line moving toward the 50 yard line so they can score on the other side of the field. In three plays they gain 14 yards, lose 12 yards, and gain 4 more yards. What yard line do they start their fourth play?

Answers

Answer:

16 yard line

Step-by-step explanation:

The football team is starting on the 10 yard line. In the first play, they move up to the 24 yard line. Then in the second play, they go back to the 12 yard line since they lost 12 yards. Then in the third play, they gain 4 yards so you add 4 to 12. They end up at the 16 yard line after the third play. This means that they're going to start their fourth play at the 16 yard line.

Answer:

16 yards.

Step-by-step explanation:

They start at 10 yards. They are moving towards the 50 yard line, so gaining yards will add to the 10 yards instead of subtract from the 10 yards.

In the first play, they gain 14 yards. 10 + 14 = 24 yards.

In the second play, they lose 12 yards. 24 - 12 = 12 yards.

In the third play, they gain 4 yards. 12 + 4 = 16 yards, which is where they start their fourth play.
