A researcher surveys middle-school students on their study habits. She finds that in a random sample of 28 middle-school students, the mean amount of time that they spend working on the computer each night is 2.4 hours with a standard deviation of 0.92 hours. She uses the sample statistics to compute a 95% confidence interval for the population mean - the the mean amount of time that all middle-school students spend working on the computer each night. What is the margin of error for this confidence interval

Answers

Answer 1

Answer:

The margin of error is  [tex]E = 1.96 * \frac{ 0.92}{\sqrt{28 } }[/tex]

Step-by-step explanation:

From the question we are told that

    The sample size is  [tex]n = 28[/tex]

     The  sample  mean is  [tex]\= x = 2.4 \ hr[/tex]

      The  standard deviation is  [tex]\sigma = 0.92 \ hr[/tex]

     

Given that the confidence level is 95% the the level of significance can be 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} } = Z_{\frac{0.05}{2} } = 1.96[/tex]

Generally the margin of error is mathematically represented as

           [tex]E = Z_{\frac{\alpha }{2} } * \frac{\sigma }{\sqrt{n} }[/tex]

substituting values

          [tex]E = 1.96 * \frac{ 0.92}{\sqrt{28 } }[/tex]

         [tex]E = 0.3408[/tex]

23 15          345       529

24 12         288       576

now we are required to find the summation (total) of all values of X, Y, XY and X².

∑X = 209

∑Y = 337

∑XY = 5996

∑X² = 4081

The formular for finding b is given as:

b = n∑XY - (X)(Y) / n∑X² - (∑X)²

= 11(5996) - (209)(337) / 11(4081) - (209)²

= 65956 - 70433 / 44891 - 43681

= -4477/ 1210

= -3.7

The question asked us to find the value of b but we can  go further to find the equation of the regression line:

a = ∑Y - b∑X / n

= 337 - (-3.7)(209)/  11

=1110.3/11

= 100.94

the equation is:

Y = 100.94 - 3.7X

Where x1, y1 are the coordinates of the first point and  x2, y2 are the coordinates of the 2-nd point.

L=sqrt((3.1-2.7)²+(0.3-(-4.9))²)= sqrt(0.4²+5.2²)=sqrt(27.2) - this is exact answer.

State the correct polar coordinate for the graph shown:

Answers

Answer:

Solution : ( - 5, 5π / 4 )

Step-by-step explanation:

There are four cases to consider here, the first two with respect to r > 0, the second two with respect to r < 0. r is the directed distance from the pole, and theta is the directed angle from the positive x - axis. Let's start by listing coordinates when r is positive. r here is 5 units from the positive x - axis.

( 5, θ ) theta here is between 30 and 60 degrees, so we can say it's about 45 degrees.

( 5, θ ) theta here is the remaining negative side of 360 - 45 = 315. That would make it - 315.

And when r is negative ( r < 0 ),

( - 5, θ ) now the point is going to lie on the ray pointing in the opposite direction of the terminal side of theta. This will be 45 degrees more than 180, or 180 + 45 = 225 degrees.

Right away we know that ( - 5, 225° ) is our solution, we don't have to consider the second case. Converting 225 to radians in terms of π will be 5π / 4 radians, giving us a solution of ( - 5, 5π / 4 ) or option b.

The size of a television is the length of the diagonal of its screen in inches. The aspect ratio of the screens of older televisions is 4:3, while the aspect ratio of newer wide-screen televisions is 16:9. Find the width and height of an newer 75-inch television whose screen has an aspect ratio of 16:9

Answers

Answer:

The Width = 65.44 inches

The Height = 36.81 inches

Step-by-step explanation:

We are told in the question that:

The width and height of an newer 75-inch television whose screen has an aspect ratio of 16:9

Using Pythagoras Theorem we known that:

Width² + Height² = Diagonal²

Since we known that the size of a television is the length of the diagonal of its screen in inches.

Hence, for this new TV

Width² + Height² = 75²

We are given ratio: 16:9 as aspect ratio

Width = 16x

Height = 9x

(16x)² +(9x)² = 75²

= 256x² + 81x² = 75²

337x² = 5625

x² = 5625/337

x² = 16.691394659

x = √16.691394659

x = 4.0855103303

Approximately x = 4.09

For the newer 75 inch tv set

The Height = 9x

= 9 × 4.09

= 36.81 inches

The Width = 16x

= 16 × 4.09

= 65.44 inches.

A researcher measures daily driving distance from college and weekly cost of gas for a group of commuting college students. What kind of correlation is likely to be obtained for these two variables?

Answers

Answer:

There is a positive correlation between these two variables.

Step-by-step explanation:

Positive correlation is an association amid two variables in which both variables change in the same direction.  

A positive correlation occurs when one variable declines as the other variable declines, or one variable escalates while the other escalates.

As the distance covered by the vehicle increases the amount of gas consumed also increases. Thus, the weekly cost of gas will also increase.

Thus, there is a positive correlation between these two variables.

Consider a bag of jelly beans that has 30 red, 30 blue, and 30 green jelly beans. a) How many color combinations of 15 beans have at least 6 green beans

Answers

Answer:

680

Step-by-step explanation:

Number of red beans = 30

Number of Blue beans = 30

Number of green beans = 30

How many color combinations of 15 beans have at least 6 green beans?

Since at least 6 of the beans must be green,

Then (15 - 6) = 9

Then, the remaining 9 could be either red, blue or green.

Therefore, C(9 + (9 - 1), 3)

C(17, 3) = 17C3

nCr = n! ÷ (n-r)! r!

17C3 = 17! ÷ (17 - 3)! 3!

17C3 = 17! ÷ 14!3!

17C3 = (17 * 16 * 15) / (3 * 2)

17C3 = 4080 / 6

17C3 = 680 ways

Using the combination formula, it is found that there are 17,157,323,000,000,000 color combinations of 15 beans have at least 6 green beans.

The order in which the beans are chosen is not important, hence, the combination formula is used to solve this question.

Combination formula:

[tex]C_{n,x}[/tex] is the number of different combinations of x objects from a set of n elements, given by:

[tex]C_{n,x} = \frac{n!}{x!(n-x)!}[/tex]

Th total number of combinations of 15 beans from a set of 30 + 30 + 30 = 90 is:

[tex]C_{90,15} = \frac{90!}{15!75!} = 45795674000000000[/tex]

With less than 6 green, we have:

0 green:

[tex]C_{30,0}C_{60,15} = \frac{60!}{15!45!} = 53194089000000[/tex]

1 green:

[tex]C_{30,1}C_{60,14} = \frac{30!}{1!29!} \times \frac{60!}{14!46!} = 520376960000000[/tex]

2 green:

[tex]C_{30,2}C_{60,13} = \frac{30!}{2!28!} \times \frac{60!}{13!47!} = 2247585600000000[/tex]

3 green:

[tex]C_{30,3}C_{60,12} = \frac{30!}{3!27!} \times \frac{60!}{12!48!} = 5681396900000000[/tex]

4 green:

[tex]C_{30,4}C_{60,11} = \frac{30!}{4!26!} \times \frac{60!}{11!49!} = 9391696900000000[/tex]

5 green:

[tex]C_{30,5}C_{60,10} = \frac{30!}{5!25!} \times \frac{60!}{10!50!} = 10744101000000000[/tex]

Hence, the total for the number of combinations with less than 5 green is:

[tex]53194089000000 + 520376960000000 + 2247585600000000 + 5681396900000000 + 9391696900000000 + 10744101000000000 = 28638351000000000[/tex]

Subtracting the total amount of combinations from the number with less than 5 green, the number of combinations with at least 6 green is:

[tex]T = 45795674000000000 - 28638351000000000 = 17157323000000000[/tex]

Suppose we want to choose 6 colors, without replacement, from 14 distinct colors. (a) How many ways can this be done, if the order of the choices matters? (b) How many ways can this be done, if the order of the choices does not matter?

Answers

Answer:

(a) 2,162,160

(b) 3,003

Step-by-step explanation:

(a) order matters

You can choose from 14 for the first pick. Then you have 13 left for the second pick. Then you have 12 left for the third pick. Keep going until you have 9 left for the 6th pick. The number when order matters is:

total = 14 * 13 * 12 * 11 * 10 * 9 = 2,162,160

(b) Order does not matter

Start with the same number as above for picking 6 out of 14. Since order does not matter, we divide by the number of ways you can arrange 6 items.

Since there are 6! ways of arranging 6 items,

total = 2,162,160/6! = 3,003

The number of ways when the order matters are 121080960.

The number of ways when order does not matters are 3003.

Given,

Choose 6 colors, without replacement, from 14 distinct colors.

We have to find:

- How many ways can this be done, if the order of the choices matters.

- How many ways can this be done if the order of the choices does not matter.

What are permutation and combination?

We use permutation when the order of the arrangements matters.

It is given by:

[tex]^ nP_r[/tex] = n! / r!

We use combination when order does not matter.

It is given by:

[tex]^nC_{r}[/tex] = n! / r! (n-r)!

Find the number of ways when order matters.

We have,

n = 14 and r = 6

[tex]^{14}P_{6}[/tex]

= 14! / 6!

= (14 x 13 x 12 x 11 x 10 x 9 x 8 x 7 x 6!) / 6!

= 4 x 13 x 12 x 11 x 10 x 9 x 8 x 7

= 121080960

Find the number of ways when order does not matter.

We have,

n = 14 and r = 6

[tex]^{14}C_{6}[/tex]

= 14! / 6! 8!

= 14 x 13 x 12 x 11 x 10 x 9 / 6 x 5 x 4 x 3 x 2

= 7 x 13 x 11  x 3  

= 3003

Thus,

The number of ways when the order matters are 121080960.

The number of ways when order does not matters are 3003.

Answer:

≈ 3.6

Step-by-step explanation:

Calculate the distance d using the distance formula

d = [tex]\sqrt{(x_{2}-x_{1})^2+(y_{2}-y_{1})^2 }[/tex]

with (x₁, y₁ ) = (P(5, 1) and (x₂, y₂ ) = Q(3, 4)

d = [tex]\sqrt{(3-5)^2+(4-1)^2}[/tex]

a sheet metal worker earns $26.80 per hour after receiving a 4.5% raise. what was the sheet metal worker's hourly pay before raise? Round your answer to the nearest cent

Answers

Answer

$25.59

Step-by-step explanation:

subtract by percentage or you can also do:

100% - 4.5% = 95.5%

95.5% x $26.80 = $25.594

IF ROUNDED: $25.59

Answer:

$25.65

Step-by-step explanation:

Let the original hourly rate be r.  

Then 1.045r + $26.80/hr.

Dividing both sides by 1.045, we get:

      $26.80/hr

r = ------------------ = $25.65  This was the before-raise pay rate.
