Answer:
The 95% confidence interval is [tex]0.503 < p < 0.535[/tex]
The interpretation is that there is 95% confidence that the true population proportion lie within the confidence interval
Step-by-step explanation:
From the question we are told that
The sample size is n = 1003
The number that indicated television are a luxury is k = 521
Generally the sample mean is mathematically represented as
[tex]\r p = \frac{k}{n}[/tex]
[tex]\r p = \frac{521}{1003}[/tex]
[tex]\r p = 0.519[/tex]
Given the confidence level is 95% then the level of significance is mathematically evaluated 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} } = 1.96[/tex]
The margin of error is mathematically represented as
[tex]E = Z_{\frac{\alpha }{2} } * \sqrt{ \frac{\r p (1- \r p )}{n} }[/tex]
=> [tex]E = 1.96 * \sqrt{ \frac{ 0.519 (1- 0.519 )}{1003} }[/tex]
=> [tex]E = 0.016[/tex]
The 95% confidence interval is mathematically represented as
[tex]\r p -E < p < \r p +E[/tex]
=> [tex]0.519 - 0.016 < p < 0.519 + 0.016[/tex]
=> [tex]0.503 < p < 0.535[/tex]
For what value of x does (x + 3)^2-5=0
Answer:
x = -3±sqrt( 5)
Step-by-step explanation:
(x + 3)^2-5=0
Add 5 to each side
(x + 3)^2-5+5=0+5
(x + 3)^2 = 5
Take the square root of each side
sqrt((x + 3)^2 )=±sqrt( 5)
x+3 = ±sqrt( 5)
Subtract 3 from each side
x+3-3 = -3±sqrt( 5)
x = -3±sqrt( 5)

Life rating in Greece. Greece has faced a severe economic crisis since the end of 2009. A Gallup poll surveyed 1,000 randomly sampled Greeks in 2011 and found that 25% of them said they would rate their lives poorly enough to be considered "suffering".
a. Describe the population parameter of interest. What is the value of the point estimate of this parameter?
b. Check if the conditions required for constructing a confidence interval based on these data are met.
c. Construct a 95% confidence interval for the proportion of Greeks who are "suffering".
d. Without doing any calculations, describe what would happen to the confidence interval if we decided to use a higher confidence level.
e. Without doing any calculations, describe what would happen to the confidence interval if we used a larger sample.
Answer:
a
The population parameter of interest is the true proportion of Greek who are suffering
While the point estimate of this parameter is proportion of those that would rate their lives poorly enough to be considered "suffering". which is 25%
b
The condition is met
c
The 95% confidence interval is [tex]0.223 < p < 0.277[/tex]
d
If the confidence level is increased which will in turn reduce the level of significance but increase the critical value([tex]Z_{\frac{\alpha }{2} }[/tex]) and this will increase the margin of error( deduced from the formula for margin of error i.e [tex]E \ \alpha \ Z_{\frac{\alpha }{2} }[/tex] ) which will make the confidence interval wider
e
Looking at the formula for margin of error if the we see that if the sample size is increased the margin of error will reduce making the confidence level narrower
Step-by-step explanation:
From the question we are told that
The sample size is n = 1000
The population proportion is [tex]\r p = 0.25[/tex]
Considering question a
The population parameter of interest is the true proportion of Greek who are suffering
While the point estimate of this parameter is proportion of those that would rate their lives poorly enough to be considered "suffering". which is 25%
Considering question b
The condition for constructing a confidence interval is
[tex]n * \r p > 5\ and \ n(1 - \r p ) >5[/tex]
So
[tex]1000 * 0.25 > 5 \ and \ 1000 * (1-0.25 ) > 5[/tex]
[tex]250 > 5 \ and \ 750> 5[/tex]
Hence the condition is met
Considering question c
Given that the confidence level is 95% then the level of significance is mathematically evaluated 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} } = 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{ 0.25 (1 - 0.25 ) }{ 1000} }[/tex]
[tex]E = 0.027[/tex]
The 95% confidence interval is mathematically represented as
[tex]\r p - E < p < \r p + E[/tex]
substituting values
[tex]0.25 - 0.027 < p < 0.25 + 0.027[/tex]
substituting values
[tex]0.223 < p < 0.277[/tex]
considering d
If the confidence level is increased which will in turn reduce the level of significance but increase the critical value([tex]Z_{\frac{\alpha }{2} }[/tex]) and this will increase the margin of error( deduced from the formula for margin of error i.e [tex]E \ \alpha \ Z_{\frac{\alpha }{2} }[/tex] ) which will make the confidence interval wider
considering e
Looking at the formula for margin of error if the we see that if the sample size is increased the margin of error will reduce making the confidence level narrower

The owner of a deli gathered data about the number of flavored bagels and plain bagels sold during the first hour of business for several days. He organized the data in a scatter plot, with x representing the number of flavored bagels and y representing the number of plain bagels sold. Then he used a graphing tool to find the equation of the line of best fit: y = 1.731x + 6.697. Based on the line of best fit, approximately how many flavored bagels can the deli expect to sell during an hour when 50 plain bagels are sold?
Answer:
Approximately 25 flavored bagels.
Step-by-step explanation:
The scatter plot is a graph on cartesian plane where;
y-axis represents the number of plain bagels sold.
x-axis representing the number of flavored bagels sold.
The equation of the straight line on the graph is;
y = 1.731x + 6.697
The graph formed is as attached below.
The slope of the graph means that for every 1 flavored bagel sold, 1.731 plain bagels are sold within one hour.
When y = 50 ;
50 = 1.731x + 6.697
x = [tex]\frac{50 - 6.697}{1.731}[/tex] = 25.01617562 ≈ 25 flavored bagels.

Bighorn sheep are beautiful wild animals found throughout the western United States. Data for this problem are based on information taken from The Desert Bighorn, edited by Monson and Sumner 9University of Arizona Press). Let x be the age of a bighorn sheep (in years), and let y be the mortality rate (percent that die) for this age group. For example, x = 1, y = 14 means that 14% of the bighorn sheep between 1 and 2 years old died. A random sample of Arizona bighorn sheep gave the following information:
x 1 2 3 4 5
y 14 18.9 14.4 19.6 20.0
∑x=15 ; ∑y=87.3;∑x2=55; ∑y2=1569.77; ∑xy=275
(a) Draw a scatter diagram.
(b) Find the equation of the least-squares line, and plot the line on the scatter diagram of part (a).
(c) Find the correlation coefficient r. Find the coefficient of determination . What percentage of variation in y is explained by the variation in x and the least squares model?
Answer:
The answer and explanation are below
Step-by-step explanation:
i followed the data that was given in the question.
∑x=15 ; ∑y=87.3;∑x2=55; ∑y2=1569.77; ∑xy=275
a.) please refer to the attachment for the scatter diagram. Y was plotted against X.
b. The equation is given as:
Y = b₁ + b₀X
∑x=15 ; ∑y=87.3;∑x2=55; ∑y2=1569.77; ∑xy=275
b₁ = n∑xy - (∑x)(∑y)/n(∑x²) - (∑x)²
b₁ = 5 x 275 - 15 x 87.3/5 x 55 - (15²)
= 1375-1309.5/275-225
= 65.5/50
= 1.31
b₀ = 87.3/5 - 1.31(15/5)
= 87.3/5 - 1.31x3
= 13.53
the regression line is
Y = 13.53 + 1.31X
please refer to the attachment for the diagram for the regression line.
c. we are required to find r.
r = n∑XY - (∑X)(∑Y)/√n∑X²-(∑X)² × √n∑y²-(∑y)²
∑x=15 ; ∑y=87.3;∑x2=55; ∑y2=1569.77; ∑xy=275
inserting these values:
r = 5 x 275-(15)(87.3)/√275-225 x √7848.85 - 7621.29
= 65.5/106.69
= 0.6139
Coefficient of determination = r²
r = 0.6139
r² = 0.3769 = 37.69%
Therefore 37.69% variation in y is explained by variation in x and the least square model.
Which equation is equivalent to 3[x + 3(4x – 5)] = 15x – 24?15x – 15 = 15x – 2415x – 5 = 15x – 2439x – 45 = 15x – 2439x – 15 = 15x – 24?
Answer:
3[x + 3(4x – 5)] = (39x-15)
Step-by-step explanation:
The given expression is : 3[x + 3(4x – 5)]
We need to find the equivalent expression for this given expression. We need to simplify it. Firstly, open the brackets. So,
[tex]3[x + 3(4x -5)]=3[x+12x-15][/tex]
Again open the brackets,
[tex]3[x+12x-15]=3x+36x-45[/tex]
Now adding numbers having variables together. So,
[tex]3[x + 3(4x - 5)]=39x-15[/tex]
So, the equivalent expression of 3[x + 3(4x – 5)] is (39x-15).
Randy is walking home from school. According to the diagram above, what is his total distance from school to home? Show your work and include units. If he had a jet pack, would you use distance or displacement? Why?
Answer:
First, when he walks, we can see in the image that between the school and his house he must walk 4 times a distance of 0.5km, so this is a total of 4¨*0.5km = 2km.
Then he needs to walk 2km.
Now if he has a jet-pack, he can ignore the buildings and just take the shorter path, here we can draw a triangle rectangle, in such a way that the hypotenuse of this triangle is the distance between the home and the school.
One of the catheti is the vertical distance (two blocks of 0.5km, so this catheti has a length of 2*0.5km = 1km), and the other one is the horizontal distance, also 1km.
The actual distance of this path is given by the Pythagorean's theorem:
A^2 + B^2 = H^2
Where A and B are the cathetus, and H is the hypotenuse, then:
H^2 = 1km^2 + 1km^2
H = (√2)km = 1.41km.
Now, in the case that he has a jet-pack, he can actually go to the school using this hypotenuse line as his path, in this case the distance and the displacement would be the same.
This is because the definitions of distance and displacement are:
Distance: "how much ground an object has covered"
Displacement: "Difference between the final position and the initial position"
When he walks, the distance is 2km and the displacement is 1.41km , but when he uses the jet pack, the distance is equal to the displacement, both are 1.41km.
Answer and Step-by-step explanation:
The first thing is we can see in the image, when he walks, that between the house and his school he has to walk four times a distance of 0.5 km. The result of this is a total of 4¨*0.5 km = 2 km. The second thing is that he must walk 2 kilometers. On the other hand, if he has a jetpack, he can simply take the shorter path by ignoring all the buildings. This idea is where we can draw a triangular rectangle on the map in a way so that the hypotenuse of the triangle is the distance between the school and the home. As for the Catheti, it is a vertical distance which in this case is two blocks of 0.5 km. The result is that these catheti have a length of 2*0.5 km = 1 km. The other is the distance of the horizontal line, which is 1 km. The absolute distance of this path is given by Pythagorean's theorem, which is A^2 + B^2 = H^2. Here, A and B are the cathetus, and H is the hypotenuse, then, H^2 = 1 km^2 + 1 km^2. As well, H = (√2)km = 1.41 km. Currently, in the situation where he has a jetpack, he can literally fly to the school utilizing this hypotenuse line for the path he would need to follow. For this specific situation, the displacement, and the distance would be the exact same. The reason for this is that the definitions of displacement and distance are displacement is the difference between the final position and the initial position and distance is how much area an item has covered. Also, when he walks, the distance is 2 km and the displacement is 1.41 km. Also, when he utilizes the jet pack, the distance is equal to the displacement. Both of these are 1.41 km.

If the length of the rectangle is eight centimeters less than twice the width then we could represent it by the equation L= 2w - 8 . And we know that to find the area of a rectangle we multiply the length by the width and they've already given the area so we will represent the width by w since it is unknown.
Now we know the length is 2w- 8 and the width is w so we would multiply them and set them equal to 24.
w(2w-8) = 24
2[tex]w^{2}[/tex] - 8w = 24 subtract 24 from both sides to set the whole equation equal zero and solve. solve using any method. I will solve by factoring.
2[tex]w^{2}[/tex] - 8w -24 = 0 divide each term by 2.
[tex]w^{2}[/tex] - 4w - 12 = 0 Five two numbers that multiply to get -12 and to -4
[tex]w^{2}[/tex] +2w - 6w - 12 = 0 Group the left hand side and factor.
w(w+2) -6( w + 2) = 0 factor out w+2
(w+2)(w-6) = 0 Set them both equal zero.
w + 2 =0 or w - 6 = 0
-2 -2 + 6 +6
w= -2 or w=6
Since we are dealing with distance -2 can't represent a distance so the wide has to 6.
Now it says that the length is 8 less that twice the width.
So 2(6) - 8 = 12 -8 = 4 So the length in this care is 4.
Check.
6 * 4 = 24
24 = 24

Maxwell Communications paid a dividend of $1.20 last year. Over the next 12 months, the dividend is expected to grow at 13 percent, which is the constant growth rate for the firm (g). The new dividend after 12 months will represent D1. The required rate of return (Ke) is 17 percent. Compute the price of the stock (P0). (Do not round intermediate calculations. Round your answer to 2 decimal places.)
Answer:
The price of the stock is [tex]P_o = \$ 33.9[/tex]
Step-by-step explanation:
From the question we are told that
The dividend is [tex]k = \$ 1.20[/tex]
The expected growth rate is [tex]r = 13\% = 0.13[/tex]
The required rate of return is [tex]K_e = 17 \% = 0.17[/tex]
The new dividend after 12 months is mathematically represented as
[tex]D_1 = k * (1 + r)[/tex]
substituting values
[tex]D_1 = 1.20 * (1 + 0.13)[/tex]
[tex]D_1 = \$ 1.356[/tex]
The price of the stock the price of stock is mathematically represented as
[tex]P_o = \frac{D_1}{ K_e - r }[/tex]
substituting values
[tex]P_o = \frac{ 1.356}{ 0.17 - 0.13 }[/tex]
[tex]P_o = \$ 33.9[/tex]
The age of some lecturers are 42,54,50,54,50,42,46,46,48 and 48 calculate the mean age and standard deviation
Answer:
Mean age: 48
Standard deviation: 4
Step-by-step explanation:
a) Mean
The formula for Mean = Sum of terms/ Number of terms
Number of terms
= 42 + 54 + 50 + 54 + 50 + 42 + 46 + 46 + 48+ 48/ 10
= 480/10
= 48
The mean age is 48
b) Standard deviation
The formula for Standard deviation =
√(x - Mean)²/n
Where n = number of terms
Standard deviation =
√[(42 - 48)² + (54 - 48)² + (50 - 48)² +(54 - 48)² + (50 - 48)² +(42 - 48)² + (46 - 48)² + (46 - 48)² + (48 - 48)² + (48 - 48)² / 10]
= √-6² + 6² + 2² + 6² + 2² + -6² + -2² + -2² + 0² + 0²/10
=√36 + 36 + 4 + 36 + 4 + 36 + 4 + 4 + 0 + 0/ 10
=√160/10
= √16
= 4
The standard deviation of the ages is 4

What is mean by Triangle?A triangle is a three sided polygon, which has three vertices and three angles which has the sum 180 degrees.
Given that;
The sides are,
a) 20, 21, 28
b) 3, 6, 4
c) 8, 12, 15
Now,
We know that;
If three sides of a triangle are a, b and c.
Then, We get;
If a² + b² = c², then the triangle is right triangle.
If a² + b² > c², then the triangle is acute triangle.
If a² + b² < c², then the triangle is obtuse triangle.
Here, For option a;
⇒ 20, 21, 28
Clearly, a² + b² = 20² + 21²
= 400 + 441
= 841
And, c² = 28² = 784
Thus, a² + b² > c²
Hence, It shows the acute angle.
For option b;
⇒ 3, 6, 4
Clearly, a² + b² = 3² + 4²
= 9 + 16
= 25
And, c² = 6² = 36
Thus, a² + b² < c²
Hence, It shows the obtuse angle.
For option c;
⇒ 8, 12, 15
Clearly, a² + b² = 8² + 12²
= 64 + 144
= 208
And, c² = 15² = 225
Thus, a² + b² < c²
Hence, It shows the obtuse angle.

Suppose babies born in a large hospital have a mean weight of 3316 grams, and a standard deviation of 324 grams. If 83 babies are sampled at random from the hospital, what is the probability that the mean weight of the sample babies would differ from the population mean by greater than 54 grams?
Answer: 0.129
Step-by-step explanation:
Let [tex]\overline{X}[/tex] denotes a random variable that represents the mean weight of babies born.
Population mean : [tex]\mu= \text{3316 grams,}[/tex]
Standard deviation: [tex]\text{324 grams}[/tex]
Sample size = 83
Now, the probability that the mean weight of the sample babies would differ from the population mean by greater than 54 grams will be :
[tex]P(|\mu-\overline{X}|>54)=1-P(\dfrac{-54}{\dfrac{324}{\sqrt{83}}}<\dfrac{\overline{X}-\mu}{\dfrac{\sigma}{\sqrt{n}}}<\dfrac{-54}{\dfrac{324}{\sqrt{83}}})\\\\=1-[P(-1.518<Z<1.518)\ \ \ [Z=\dfrac{\overline{X}-\mu}{\dfrac{\sigma}{\sqrt{n}}}]\\\\=1-[P(Z<1.518)-P(z<-1.518)]\\\\=1-[P(Z<1.518)-(1-P(z<1.518))]\\\\=1-[2P(Z<1.518)-1]=2-2P(Z<1.518)\\\\=2-2(0.9355)\ [\text{By z-table}]\\\\=0.129[/tex]
hence, the required probability = 0.129
A company finds that the rate at which the quantity of a product that consumers demand changes with respect to price is given by the marginal-demand function Upper D prime (x )equals negative StartFraction 5000 Over x squared EndFraction where x is the price per unit, in dollars. Find the demand function if it is known that 1006 units of the product are demanded by consumers when the price is $5 per unit.
Answer:
q = 5000/x + 6
Step-by-step explanation:
D´= dq/dx = - 5000/x²
dq = -( 5000/x²)*dx
Integrating on both sides of the equation we get:
q = -5000*∫ 1/x²) *dx
q = 5000/x + K in this equation x is the price per unit and q demanded quantity and K integration constant
If when 1006 units are demanded when the rice is 5 then
x = 5 and q = 1006
1006 = 5000/5 +K
1006 - 1000 = K
K = 6
Then the demand function is:
q = 5000/x + 6
