A research center conducted a telephone survey of 2,000 adults to learn about the major economic concerns for the future. The survey results showed that 1,620 of the respondents think the future health of Social Security is a major economic concern. (a) What is the point estimate of the population proportion of adults who think the future health of Social Security is a major economic concern

Answers

Answer 1

Answer:

0.81

Step-by-step explanation:

Find the point estimate by dividing the number of respondents that thought it was a major economic concern by the total number of people in the survey:

1,620/2,000

= 0.81

So, the point estimate is 0.81

Find the value of x in each case:

Answers

9514 1404 393

Answer:

  x = 36

Step-by-step explanation:

The interior angle at E is (180-2x). The interior angle at F is (180-4x). The sum of the interior angles of the triangle is 180, so we have ...

  (180 -2x) +x +(180 -4x) = 180

  180 = 5x . . . . . . add 5x-180 to both sides

  36 = x . . . . . . . divide by 5

__

Additional comment

This value of x makes the exterior angles at E and F be 72° and 144°, respectively. The internal angles at E, F, G are then 108°, 36°, 36°, making the triangle isosceles with EF = EG.

Identify the first 4 terms in the arithmetic sequence given by the explicit formula ƒ(n) = 8 + 3(n – 1).

Answers

Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:

f(n) = 8 + 3(n) - 3

f(n) = 5 + 3n

f(1) = 5 + 3(1)

f(1) = 8

f(2) = 5 + 3(2)

f(2) = 5  + 6

f(2) = 11

f(3) = 5 + 3*3

f(3) = 14

f(4) = 5 + 3*4

f(4) = 17

Find two numbers that have 2, 5, and 7 as factors.​

Answers

Step-by-step explanation:

One easy way to find a number that has all of these numbers as factors is to multiply them all together, so 2 * 5 * 7 = 10 * 7 = 70, which is one number.

To find the other number, we can multiply the number we already have by any integer greater than 1, e.g. 2, to get 70* 2= 140 as our other number, making our numbers 70 and 140

a. Between 45 and 55 pounds?

Following are the solution to the given points:

Step-by-step explanation:

Normal Distribution:

Computers from a certain manufacturer have a mean lifetime of 62 months, with a standard deviation of 12 months. The distribution of lifetimes is not assumed to be symmetric. Between what two lifetimes does Chebyshev's Theorem guarantee that we will find at least approximately 75% of the computers

Answers

Answer:

Between 38 and 86 months.

Step-by-step explanation:

Chebyshev Theorem

The Chebyshev Theorem can also be applied to non-normal distribution. It states that:

At least 75% of the measures are within 2 standard deviations of the mean.

At least 89% of the measures are within 3 standard deviations of the mean.

An in general terms, the percentage of measures within k standard deviations of the mean is given by [tex]100(1 - \frac{1}{k^{2}})[/tex].

In this question:

Mean of 62, standard deviation of 12.

Between what two lifetimes does Chebyshev's Theorem guarantee that we will find at least approximately 75% of the computers?

Within 2 standard deviations of the mean, so:

62 - 2*12 = 38

62 + 2*12 = 86

Between 38 and 86 months.

1/2 of 12=1/4 of?
1/3 of 90=2/3of?

Answers

Answer:

24 and 45

Step-by-step explanation:

Okay, now that I can answer this question with the right answers:

The easy way to do this is to first solve the left hand side of the equation.

1/2 of 12 is the same as 12/2 = 6.

So 6 = 1/4 * x

To solve for that unknown x, just multiply both sides by 4 to cancel out the fraction:

6*4 = 4* 1/4*x

24 = x

For the other equation, do the same thing:

1/3 * 90 = 90/3 = 30

30 = 2/3*x

30*3 = 3* 2/3 *x

90 = 2x

90/2 = 2x/2

45 = x

Arranging the data in the ascending order:

108.6 98.3 103.7 112 117.4 120 121.5 123.2 128.4

The median is the middle value of the data set:

a)

Hence,

median = 117.4

b)

When the value of blood pressure is 117.7 instead of 117.4 then the median will be:

Median = 117.7

c)

This indicates that the median of a well sorted set of data is depends upon the middle value of the data set.

At a concession stand; three hot dogs and two hamburgers cost $9.75; two hot dogs and three hamburgers cost $10.25. Find the cost of one hot dog and the cost of one hamburger.

Answers

9514 1404 393

Answer:

hot dog: $1.75hamburger: $2.25

Step-by-step explanation:

Let x and y represent the cost of a hot dog and a hamburger, respectively. The the two purchases can be described by ...

  3x +2y -9.75 = 0

  2x +3y -10.25 = 0

We can list the coefficients of these general-form equations in 2 rows, listing the first one again at the end:

  3, 2, -9.75, 3

  2, 3, -10.25, 2

Now, we can form differences of cross-products in adjacent pairs of columns:

  d1 = (3)(3) -(2)(2) = 9 -4 = 5

  d2 = (2)(-10.25) -(3)(-9.75) = -20.50 +29.25 = 8.75

  d3 = (-9.75)(2) -(-10.25)(3) = -19.50 +30.75 = 11.25

Then the solutions are found from ...

  1/d1 = x/d2 = y/d3

  x = d2/d1 = 8.75/5 = 1.75

  y = d3/d1 = 11.25/5 = 2.25

The cost of one hot dog is $1.75; the cost of one hamburger is $2.25.

Sam's monthly bills are normally distributed with mean 2700 and standard deviation 230.9. He receives two paychecks of $1500 each in a month, post taxes and withholdings. What is the probability that his expenses will exceed his income in the following month?Ð) 10%. B) 16%.C) 21%.D) 29%.E) 37%.

Answers

Answer:

A) 10%

Step-by-step explanation:

Normal Probability Distribution

Problems of normal distributions can be solved using the z-score formula.

In a set with mean [tex]\mu[/tex] and standard deviation [tex]\sigma[/tex], the z-score of a measure X is given by:

[tex]Z = \frac{X - \mu}{\sigma}[/tex]

The Z-score measures how many standard deviations the measure is from the mean. After finding the Z-score, we look at the z-score table and find the p-value associated with this z-score. This p-value is the probability that the value of the measure is smaller than X, that is, the percentile of X. Subtracting 1 by the p-value, we get the probability that the value of the measure is greater than X.

Sam's monthly bills are normally distributed with mean 2700 and standard deviation 230.9.

This means that [tex]\mu = 2700, \sigma = 230.9[/tex]

What is the probability that his expenses will exceed his income in the following month?

Expenses above 2*1500 = $3000, which is 1 subtracted by the p-value of Z when X = 3000.

[tex]Z = \frac{X - \mu}{\sigma}[/tex]

[tex]Z = \frac{3000 - 2700}{230.9}[/tex]

[tex]Z = 1.3[/tex]

[tex]Z = 1.3[/tex] has a p-value of 0.9032.

1 - 0.9032 = 0.0968 that is, close to 10%, and thus the correct answer is given by option A.
