Answers

Answer 1

First, we find the point estimate, given by the sample mean. Then, with this, and the standard deviation of the population given, we can find the margin of error, and then, we can find the confidence interval and the minimum sample size necessary.

Doing this, we get that:

a) The point estimate for the population mean cost of fast food bills at this restaurant is $18.21.

b) The 95% margin of error is $1.64.

c) The 95% confidence interval for the population mean cost of fast food bills at this restaurant is: $16.57 ≤ µ ≤ $19.85.

d) The sample size needed is 135.

Question a:

The point estimate for the population mean is the sample mean, which is of $18.21.

The point estimate for the population mean cost of fast food bills at this restaurant is $18.21.

Question b:

We have to find our  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 .

That is z with a p-value of , so Z = 1.96.

Now, find the margin of error M as such

[tex]M = z\frac{\sigma}{\sqrt{n}}[/tex]

In which  is the standard deviation of the population and n is the size of the sample.

[tex]M = 1.96\frac{5.92}{\sqrt{50}} = 1.64[/tex]

The 95% margin of error is $1.64.

(c) State the 95% confidence interval for the population mean cost of fast food bills at this restaurant.

The lower end of the interval is the sample mean subtracted by M. So it is 18.21 - 1.64 = 16.57

The upper end of the interval is the sample mean added to M. So it is 18.21 + 1.64 = 19.85

The 95% confidence interval for the population mean cost of fast food bills at this restaurant is: $16.57 ≤ µ ≤ $19.85.

(d) What sample size is needed if the error must not exceed $1.00?

This is n for which M = 1. So

[tex]M = z\frac{\sigma}{\sqrt{n}}[/tex]

[tex]1 = 1.96\frac{5.92}{\sqrt{n}}[/tex]

[tex]\sqrt{n} = 1.96*5.92[/tex]

[tex](\sqrt{n})^2 = (1.96*5.92)^2[/tex]

[tex]n = 134.6[/tex]

Rounding up:

The sample size needed is 135.

Answers

18000

Step-by-step explanation:

The 22000 females make up 55% of the population. So, we divide 22000 by 0.55 to get the total population.

22000 ÷ 0.55 = 40000

Now we take our total population and subtract 22000 to get the number of males in the population.

40000 - 22000 = 18000

The male population of the village is 18000.

Full question:

Zoe is a party planner. She orders cupcakes and sheet cakes from Creative Cakes whenever she needs beautiful cakes to serve. One sheet cake serves 24 people and 2 dozen cupcakes serve 24 people. For the Benson's bridal shower she ordered 10 dozen cupcakes and 4 sheet cakes and paid $186.44. For the Nygaard's 50th wedding anniversary she ordered 2 dozen cupcakes and 15 sheet cakes and paid $259.66. She is planning a graduation party for her niece's high school class. She wants the party to be nice but she offered to pay for the she wants to choose the most economical plan. Zoe estimates 250 people will attend the party

Select the most economical choice below:

Zoe should buy sheet cakes because they cost $15.66 for one sheet cake.

Zoe should buy cupcakes because they cost $12.38 for one dozen cupcakes.

Zoe should buy cupcakes because they cost $15.66 for one dozen cupcakes.

Zoe should buy cupcakes because they cost $12.38 for two dozen cupcakes.

Answer:

Zoe should buy cupcakes because they cost $12.38 for two dozen cupcakes.

Explanation:

If there are 250 people attending the high school class graduation party, then 24 people each within 250 people in total would get 2 dozen cupcakes worth $12.38 each.

Therefore there are 250/24 = 10.41 groups (10 groups approximately or 10.41×2=20.82 dozens of cupcakes required)

Zoe would need to spend 10.41×$12.38= $128.88 to buy the cupcakes for the party

Find the APR, rounded to the nearest tenth of a percent (one decimal place) for the loan. Purchase a living room set for $4,900 at 8% add-on interest for 4 years. Enter only the number without % sign.

Answers

9514 1404 393

Answer:

  14.3%

Step-by-step explanation:

We assume this question is asking for the annual interest rate for an amortized loan that would produce the same total repayment amount as if 8% simple interest were added to the $4900 loan amount. There is no formula for that, but there are a number of apps and spreadsheets that can calculate it. In the attached, we have use a graphing calculator.

The APR is about 14.3%.

_____

The amount to be repaid is calculated using the simple interest formula:

  A = P(1 +rt) = $4900(1 +0.08·4) = $6468

Then the required monthly payment (for 48 months) is ...

  $6468/48 = $134.75

__

The payment amount for a 48-payment loan at rate r on a principal of $4900 will be ...

  A = 4900(r/12)/(1 -(1 +r/12)^-48)

In the attachment, we show the value of r (in percent) that would make the payment amount A be $134.75. We have done this by casting the problem in the form f(r) = 0 and looking for the x-intercept of f(r).

_____

Additional comment

The second attachment uses a spreadsheet for the same purpose. Here, we have used Go.ogle Sheets with a "Goal Seek" add-on to adjust the value in cell B5 so that the computed payment on the loan (cell B6) is the same as the value we calculated in cell B4.

We found the graphing calculator solution to be much quicker, though in that case we actually had to know the formula to use to calculate the payment. The payment formula is built into the spreadsheet.

= 6 + 2/9

= 6(2/9)

45(2/9) +39(3/9)

= (45 + 39) + (2/9 + 3/9)

= 84 + 5/9

= 84(5/9)

Thus,

The value of the expressions are:

24(5/9) +30(7/9) = 6(2/9)

45(2/9) +39(3/9) = 84(5/9)

The probability of choosing a red marble is 14/40 bc there are 14 red marbles and 40 marbles to choose from( since you have removed the marble you first chose so there are 40 marbles left).

Multiplying these two together, 12/41 * 14/40 = 168/1640, simplified it's 21/205.

Suppose that, in the past, 40% of all adults favored capital punishment. Do we have reason to believe that the proportion of adults favoring capital punishment today has increased if, in a random sample of 15 adults, 8 favor capital punishment? Use a 0.05 level of significance.

Answers

Answer:

The p-value of the test is 0.1469 > 0.05, which means that there is no reason to believe that the proportion of adults favoring capital punishment today has increased, using a 0.05 level of significance.

Step-by-step explanation:

Suppose that, in the past, 40% of all adults favored capital punishment. Test if the proportion has increased:

At the null hypothesis, we test if the proportion is still of 40%, that is:

[tex]H_0: p = 0.4[/tex]

At the alternative hypothesis, we test if the proportion has increased, that is, is greater than 40%, so:

[tex]H_1: p > 0.4[/tex]

The test statistic is:

[tex]z = \frac{X - \mu}{\frac{\sigma}{\sqrt{n}}}[/tex]

In which X is the sample mean, [tex]\mu[/tex] is the value tested at the null hypothesis, [tex]\sigma[/tex] is the standard deviation and n is the size of the sample.

0.4 is tested at the null hypothesis:

This means that [tex]\mu = 0.4, \sigma = \sqrt{0.4*0.6}[/tex]

Random sample of 15 adults, 8 favor capital punishment.

This means that [tex]n = 15, X = \frac{8}{15} = 0.5333[/tex]

Value of the test statistic:

[tex]z = \frac{X - \mu}{\frac{\sigma}{\sqrt{n}}}[/tex]

[tex]z = \frac{0.5333 - 0.4}{\frac{\sqrt{0.4*0.6}}{\sqrt{15}}}[/tex]

[tex]z = 1.05[/tex]

P-value of the test and decision:

The p-value of the test is the probability of finding a sample proportion of 0.5333 or more, which is 1 subtracted by the p-value of z = 1.05.

Looking at the z-table, z = 1.05 has a p-value of 0.8531.

1 - 0.8531 = 0.1469.

The p-value of the test is 0.1469 > 0.05, which means that there is no reason to believe that the proportion of adults favoring capital punishment today has increased, using a 0.05 level of significance.

Answers

Answer:

15,300 units

Step-by-step explanation:

First, find how many units of Product B were sold:

34,000(0.3)

= 10,200

Find how many units of Product A were sold:

10,200(1.5)

= 15,300

So, 15,300 units of Product A were sold.

Product A  sold 15,300 units that is 1.5 times more than product B

Given :

Product A sells 1.5 times more than Product B. Product B sells 70% less than Product C.

Product C sold 34,000 units this month

Product C sold = 34000

Product B is 70% less than product C

So, product B is 100-70% =30% of product C

[tex]Product B=\frac{30}{100} \cdot 34000\\Product B \; sold = 10200[/tex]

Lets find out product A sold

Product A sold = 1.5 times more than product B

given rectangle ABCD find m<CAB​

Answers

Answer:

∠ CAB = 60°

Step-by-step explanation:

∠ CAD and ∠ BCA are alternate angles and congruent , so

∠ CAD = 30°

∠ BAD = 90° ( angle in a rectangle ) , then

∠ CAB = 90° - ∠ CAD = 90° - 30° = 60°

The measure of the angle m∠CAB is 60.

What is a rectangle?

A rectangle is a 2-D shape with length and width.

The length and width are different.

If the length and width are not different then it is a square.

The area of a rectangle is given as:

Area = Length x width

We have,

The rectangle has 90 degrees on all the vertices.

So,

In ΔABC,

The sum of the angles = 180

So,

30 + 90 + m∠CAB = 180

m∠CAB = 180 - 120

m∠CAB = 60

Thus,

The measure of the angle m∠CAB is 60.
