Answer:
0.0070 = 0.70% probability that the proportion of smokers in a sample of 664 males would differ from the population proportion by greater than 3%
Step-by-step explanation:
To solve this question, we need to understand the normal probability distribution and the central limit theorem.
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.
Central Limit Theorem
The Central Limit Theorem establishes that, for a normally distributed random variable X, with mean [tex]\mu[/tex] and standard deviation [tex]\sigma[/tex], the sampling distribution of the sample means with size n can be approximated to a normal distribution with mean [tex]\mu[/tex] and standard deviation [tex]s = \frac{\sigma}{\sqrt{n}}[/tex].
For a skewed variable, the Central Limit Theorem can also be applied, as long as n is at least 30.
For a proportion p in a sample of size n, the sampling distribution of the sample proportion will be approximately normal with mean [tex]\mu = p[/tex] and standard deviation [tex]s = \sqrt{\frac{p(1-p)}{n}}[/tex]
A researcher believes that 9% of males smoke cigarettes.
This means that [tex]p = 0.09[/tex]
Sample of 664
This means that [tex]n = 664[/tex]
Mean and standard deviation:
[tex]\mu = p = 0.09[/tex]
[tex]s = \sqrt{\frac{p(1-p)}{n}} = \sqrt{\frac{0.09*0.91}{664}} = 0.011[/tex]
What is the probability that the proportion of smokers in a sample of 664 males would differ from the population proportion by greater than 3%?
Proportion below 9 - 3 = 6% or above 9 + 3 = 12%. Since the normal distribution is symmetric, these probabilities are equal, so we find one of them and multiply by 2.
Probability the proportion is below 6%
P-value of Z when X = 0.06. So
[tex]Z = \frac{X - \mu}{\sigma}[/tex]
By the Central Limit Theorem
[tex]Z = \frac{X - \mu}{s}[/tex]
[tex]Z = \frac{0.06 - 0.09}{0.011}[/tex]
[tex]Z = -2.7[/tex]
[tex]Z = -2.7[/tex] has a p-value of 0.0035
2*0.0035 = 0.0070
0.0070 = 0.70% probability that the proportion of smokers in a sample of 664 males would differ from the population proportion by greater than 3%
Which complex number does not lie on the line segment plotted on the graph?
Answer:
Notice that for 3 out of the 4 numbers, there is a relationship between the x and the y coordinate of the number; for 3+i, -2i, -2-4i we have that the real part is larger by 2 from the imaginary part. Thus, the points are on the same line in the imaginary plane; they satisfy x=y+2 or Re{z}=Im{z}+2. However, 2-4i does not satisfy this equation since 2 is not equal to -4+2. Hence, this point does not belong to the line that the other 3 points define.

You have some data points labeled by [tex]x[/tex]. They form the set {3, 5, 7}.
The mean, [tex]\bar x[/tex], is the average of these values:
[tex]\bar x = \dfrac{3+5+7}3 = \dfrac{15}3 = 5[/tex]
Then in the column labeled [tex]x-\bar x[/tex], what you're doing is computing the difference between each data point [tex]x[/tex] and the mean [tex]\bar x[/tex]:
[tex]x=3 \implies x-\bar x = 3 - 5 = -2[/tex]
[tex]x=5 \implies x-\bar x = 5-5 = 0[/tex]
[tex]x=7 \implies x-\bar x = 7 - 5 = 2[/tex]
These are sometimes called "residuals".
In the next column, you square these values:
[tex]x=3 \implies (x-\bar x)^2 = (-2)^2 = 4[/tex]
[tex]x=5 \implies (x-\bar x)^2 = 0^2 = 0[/tex]
[tex]x=7 \implies (x-\bar x)^2 = 2^2 = 4[/tex]
and the variance of the data is the sum of these so-called "squared residuals".
Suppose that a survey was taken and it showed that 18% of online shoppers in the United States would prefer to do business only with large well-known retailers. If 2700 online shoppers were surveyed, how many are willing to do business with any size retailers?
Step-by-step explanation:
You can conclude that 82% of all shoppers will do business with any retailer of any size aslong as they are on the internet.
82% of 2700 = 0.82 * 2700 =2214
which makes the other responder correct.

SCALCET8 3.9.015. A street light is mounted at the top of a 15-ft-tall pole. A man 6 ft tall walks away from the pole with a speed of 4 ft/s along a straight path. How fast is the tip of his shadow moving when he is 35 ft from the pole
Answer:
[tex]X=6.67ft/s[/tex]
Step-by-step explanation:
From the question we are told that:
Height of pole [tex]H_p=15[/tex]
Height of man [tex]h_m=6ft[/tex]
Speed of Man [tex]\triangle a =4ft/s[/tex]
Distance from pole [tex]d=35ft[/tex]
Let
Distance from pole to man=a
Distance from man to shadow =b
Therefore
[tex]\frac{a+b}{15}=\frac{b}{6}[/tex]
[tex]6a+6b=15y[/tex]
[tex]2a=3b[/tex]
Generally the equation for change in velocity is mathematically given by
[tex]2(\triangle a)=3(\triangle b )[/tex]
[tex]2*4=3(\triangle b)[/tex]
[tex]\triangle a=\frac{8}{3}[/tex]
Since
The speed of the shadow is given as
[tex]X=\triangle b+\triangle a[/tex]
[tex]X=4+8/3[/tex]
[tex]X=6.67ft/s[/tex]

Why does it help to rearrange
addends in Example B to show that
2.5n +9.9+(-3n) is equal to
2.5n + (-3n) + 9.9?
Answer:
You don't really need to do it, but it helps you keep things more organized and easier to follow. Imagine if you're doing some multi-variable equation,
2a + 5b + 4d + 3c + b + a + 2d
that looks like a mess, it'll be easier to look at if you put all the similar variables next to each others like this:
a + 2a + b + 5b + 3c + 2d + 4d
(a + 2a) + (b + 5b) + 3c + (2d + 4d)
now you can add them up much easier.

There is a bag filled with 3 blue and 5 red marbles.
A marble is taken at random from the bag, the colour is noted and then it is not replaced.
Another marble is taken at random.
What is the probability of getting 2 of the same colour?
JUST NEED THE ANSWER IN A FRACTION PLEASE
[tex]\frac{13}{28}[/tex]
Step-by-step explanation:Given:
Blue marbles: 3
Reb marbles: 5
Total marbles: 8
Two marbles are selected at random, one after the other with replacement.
Getting the same colour of marbles from the selection means the two marbles are both red or both blue.
(a) Probability of getting 2 marbles being red in colour
i. Probability of picking a red at the first selection:
Number of red marbles ÷ Total number of marbles
=> 5 ÷ 8 = [tex]\frac{5}{8}[/tex]
ii. Probability of picking a red at the second selection:
Number of remaining red marbles ÷ Total number of remaining marbles
Since after the first pick, the marble is not replaced, the remaining red marbles is 4 while the total number of remaining marbles is 7
=> 4 ÷ 7 = [tex]\frac{4}{7}[/tex]
iii. The probability of getting both marbles being red is the product of i and ii above. i.e
[tex]\frac{5}{8}[/tex] x [tex]\frac{4}{7}[/tex] = [tex]\frac{5}{14}[/tex]
(b) Probability of getting 2 marbles being blue in colour
i. Probability of picking a blue at the first selection:
Number of blue marbles ÷ Total number of marbles
=> 3 ÷ 8 = [tex]\frac{3}{8}[/tex]
ii. Probability of picking a blue at the second selection:
Number of remaining blue marbles ÷ Total number of remaining marbles
Since after the first pick, the marble is not replaced, the remaining blue marbles is 2 while the total number of remaining marbles is 7
=> 2 ÷ 7 = [tex]\frac{2}{7}[/tex]
iii. The probability of getting both marbles being blue is the product of i and ii above. i.e
[tex]\frac{3}{8}[/tex] x [tex]\frac{2}{7}[/tex] = [tex]\frac{3}{28}[/tex]
(c) Probability of getting 2 marbles of the same colour.
The probability of getting 2 marbles of same colour is the sum of the probability of getting both marbles of red colour and the probability of getting both marbles as blue colour. i.e The sum of a(iii) and b(iii)
[tex]\frac{5}{14}[/tex] + [tex]\frac{3}{28}[/tex] = [tex]\frac{13}{28}[/tex]
The probability of getting 2 of the same colour is [tex]\frac{13}{28}[/tex]

The opposite sides of a rectangle are equal. The width make this obvious because both of them are x.
B)
The lengths are not so obvious, but it is never the less true. The two sides are obvious and they are therefore true.
4x + 1 = 2x + 12 Subtract 1 from both sides.
- 1 -1
4x = 2x + 11 Subtract 2x from both sides
-2x -2x
2x = 11 Divide by 2
x = 11/2
x = 5.5
C)
P = L + L + w + w
P = 4(5.5) + 1 + 2(5.5) + 12 + 5.5 + 5.5
P = 22 + 1 + 11 + 12 + 11
P = 23 + 23 + 11
P = 57
Cenntura was having fun playing poker she needed the next two cards out to be heart so she could make a flesh five cards of the same suit there are 10 cards left on the deck and three our hearts what is the probability that two cards doubt to Seterra without replacement will both be hearts answer choices are in percentage for format rounded to the nearest whole number
Answer:
7% probability that the next 2 cards are hearts.
Step-by-step explanation:
Cards are chosen without replacement, which means that the hypergeometric distribution is used to solve this question.
Hypergeometric distribution:
The probability of x successes is given by the following formula:
[tex]P(X = x) = h(x,N,n,k) = \frac{C_{k,x}*C_{N-k,n-x}}{C_{N,n}}[/tex]
In which:
x is the number of successes.
N is the size of the population.
n is the size of the sample.
k is the total number of desired outcomes.
Combinations formula:
[tex]C_{n,x}[/tex] is the number of different combinations of x objects from a set of n elements, given by the following formula.
[tex]C_{n,x} = \frac{n!}{x!(n-x)!}[/tex]
In this question:
10 cards, which means that [tex]N = 10[/tex]
3 are hearts, which means that [tex]k = 3[/tex]
Probability that the next 2 cards are hearts:
This is P(X = 2) when n = 2. So
[tex]P(X = x) = h(x,N,n,k) = \frac{C_{k,x}*C_{N-k,n-x}}{C_{N,n}}[/tex]
[tex]P(X = 2) = h(2,10,2,3) = \frac{C_{3,2}*C_{7,0}}{C_{10,2}} = 0.0667[/tex]
0.0667*100% = 6.67%
Rounded to the nearest whole number, 7% probability that the next 2 cards are hearts.
1. Find the Perimeter AND Area of the figure
below.
2 ft
5 ft
2 ft
5 ft
Answer:
A = 16 ft^2
P = 20 ft
Step-by-step explanation:
P = perimeter
A = area
STEP 1: divide the shape into rectangles
Rectangle 1: 2ft*3ft
Rectangle 2: 2ft*5ft
STEP 2: Find the area of each rectangle
Equation for area of a rectangle = bh
Rectangle 1: b = 2, h = 3
Rectangle 2: b = 2, h = 5
(2 * 3) + (2 * 5)
6 + 10
16 ft^2
Now, we have to find the perimeter
STEP 1: Find the unknown side lengths.
To find the lengths of the sides not labeled, you have to use the lengths of the sides we already know.
The length of one parallel side is 5, and the length of another parallel side is 2. The length of the unknown side starts at the same place as the top of the side length that is 5, and ends at the top of the side length that is 2. This means that we have to subtract 2 from 5 in order to find the unknown side length.
STEP 2: Add up all the side lengths
P = 2 + 5 + 5 + 2 + 3 + 3
P = 20 ft
Don't forget to label your answers!!

Step-by-step explanation:
A bacteria culture initially contains 100 cells and grows at a rate proportional to its size. After an hour the population has increased to 310.
(a) Find an expression for the number of bacteria after
hours.
(b) Find the number of bacteria after 3 hours.
(c) Find the rate of growth after 3 hours.
(d) When will the population reach 10,000?
Answer:
a) The expression for the number of bacteria is [tex]P(t) = 100\cdot e^{1.131\cdot t}[/tex].
b) There are 2975 bacteria after 3 hours.
c) The rate of growth after 3 hours is about 3365.3 bacteria per hour.
d) A population of 10,000 will be reached after 4.072 hours.
Step-by-step explanation:
a) The population growth of the bacteria culture is described by this ordinary differential equation:
[tex]\frac{dP}{dt} = k\cdot P[/tex] (1)
Where:
[tex]k[/tex] - Rate of proportionality, in [tex]\frac{1}{h}[/tex].
[tex]P[/tex] - Population of the bacteria culture, no unit.
[tex]t[/tex] - Time, in hours.
The solution of this differential equation is:
[tex]P(t) = P_{o}\cdot e^{k\cdot t}[/tex] (2)
Where:
[tex]P_{o}[/tex] - Initial population, no unit.
[tex]P(t)[/tex] - Current population, no unit.
If we know that [tex]P_{o} = 100[/tex], [tex]t = 1\,h[/tex] and [tex]P(t) = 310[/tex], then the rate of proportionality is:
[tex]P(t) = P_{o}\cdot e^{k\cdot t}[/tex]
[tex]\frac{P(t)}{P_{o}} = e^{k\cdot t}[/tex]
[tex]k\cdot t = \ln \frac{P(t)}{P_{o}}[/tex]
[tex]k = \frac{1}{t}\cdot \ln \frac{P(t)}{P_{o}}[/tex]
[tex]k = \frac{1}{1}\cdot \ln \frac{310}{100}[/tex]
[tex]k\approx 1.131\,\frac{1}{h}[/tex]
Hence, the expression for the number of bacteria is [tex]P(t) = 100\cdot e^{1.131\cdot t}[/tex].
b) If we know that [tex]t = 3\,h[/tex], then the number of bacteria is:
[tex]P(t) = 100\cdot e^{1.131\cdot t}[/tex]
[tex]P(3) = 100\cdot e^{1.131\cdot (3)}[/tex]
[tex]P(3) \approx 2975.508[/tex]
There are 2975 bacteria after 3 hours.
c) The rate of growth of the population is represented by (1):
[tex]\frac{dP}{dt} = k\cdot P[/tex]
If we know that [tex]k\approx 1.131\,\frac{1}{h}[/tex] and [tex]P \approx 2975.508[/tex], then the rate of growth after 3 hours:
[tex]\frac{dP}{dt} = \left(1.131\,\frac{1}{h} \right)\cdot (2975.508)[/tex]
[tex]\frac{dP}{dt} = 3365.3\,\frac{1}{h}[/tex]
The rate of growth after 3 hours is about 3365.3 bacteria per hour.
d) If we know that [tex]P(t) = 10000[/tex], then the time associated with the size of the bacteria culture is:
[tex]P(t) = 100\cdot e^{1.131\cdot t}[/tex]
[tex]10000 = 100\cdot e^{1.131\cdot t}[/tex]
[tex]100 = e^{1.131\cdot t}[/tex]
[tex]\ln 100 = 1.131\cdot t[/tex]
[tex]t = \frac{\ln 100}{1.131}[/tex]
[tex]t \approx 4.072\,h[/tex]
A population of 10,000 will be reached after 4.072 hours.

Answer:
[tex]\bar x = 107.11[/tex]
[tex]\sigma_x = 31.07[/tex]
Step-by-step explanation:
See comment for complete question
Given
[tex]x: 97\ 178\ 129\ 90\ 75\ 94\ 116\ 100\ 85[/tex]
Solving (a): The sample mean

[tex]\bar x = \frac{97+ 178+ 129+ 90+ 75+ 94+ 116+ 100+ 85}{9}[/tex]
[tex]\bar x = \frac{964}{9}[/tex]
[tex]\bar x = 107.11[/tex]
Solving (b): The sample standard deviation
This is calculated as:
[tex]\sigma_x = \sqrt{\frac{\sum(x - \bar x)^2}{n-1}}[/tex]
So, we have:
[tex]\sigma_x = \sqrt{\frac{(97 - 107.11)^2 +.............+ (85- 107.11)^2 }{9-1}}[/tex]
[tex]\sigma_x = \sqrt{\frac{7720.8889}{8}}[/tex]
[tex]\sigma_x = \sqrt{965.1111125}[/tex]
[tex]\sigma_x = 31.07[/tex]
If f(x) =4x2 - 8x - 20 and g(x) = 2x + a, find the value of a so that the y-intercept of the graph of the composite function (fog)(x) is (0, 25).
Answer:
The possible values are a = -2.5 or a = 4.5.
Step-by-step explanation:
Composite function:
The composite function of f(x) and g(x) is given by:
[tex](f \circ g)(x) = f(g(x))[/tex]
In this case:
[tex]f(x) = 4x^2 - 8x - 20[/tex]
[tex]g(x) = 2x + a[/tex]
So
[tex](f \circ g)(x) = f(g(x)) = f(2x + a) = 4(2x + a)^2 - 8(2x + a) - 20 = 4(4x^2 + 4ax + a^2) - 16x - 8a - 20 = 16x^2 + 16ax + 4a^2 - 16x - 8a - 20 = 16x^2 +(16a-16)x + 4a^2 - 8a - 20[/tex]
Value of a so that the y-intercept of the graph of the composite function (fog)(x) is (0, 25).
This means that when [tex]x = 0, f(g(x)) = 25[/tex]. So
[tex]4a^2 - 8a - 20 = 25[/tex]
[tex]4a^2 - 8a - 45 = 0[/tex]
Solving a quadratic equation, by Bhaskara:
[tex]\Delta = (-8)^2 - 4(4)(-45) = 784[/tex]
[tex]x_{1} = \frac{-(-8) + \sqrt{784}}{2*(4)} = \frac{36}{8} = 4.5[/tex]
[tex]x_{2} = \frac{-(-8) - \sqrt{784}}{2*(4)} = -\frac{20}{8} = -2.5[/tex]
The possible values are a = -2.5 or a = 4.5.
