A telephone service representative believes that the proportion of customers completely satisfied with their local telephone service is different between the South and the Midwest. The representative's belief is based on the results of a survey. The survey included a random sample of 1300 southern residents and 1380 midwestern residents. 39% of the southern residents and 50% of the midwestern residents reported that they were completely satisfied with their local telephone service. Find the 80% confidence interval for the difference in two proportions. Step 1 of 3 : Find the point estimate that should be used in constructing the confidence interval

Answers

Answer 1

Answer:

The point estimate that should be used in constructing the confidence interval is 0.11.

The 80% confidence interval for the difference in two proportions is (0.0856, 0.1344).

Step-by-step explanation:

Before building the confidence interval, we need to understand the central limit theorem and subtraction of normal variables.

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]

Subtraction between normal variables:

When two normal variables are subtracted, the mean is the difference of the means, while the standard deviation is the square root of the sum of the variances.

Midwest:

50% of 1380, so:

[tex]p_M = 0.5[/tex]

[tex]s_M = \sqrt{\frac{0.5*0.5}{1380}} = 0.0135[/tex]

South:

39% of 1300, so:

[tex]p_S = 0.39[/tex]

[tex]s_S = \sqrt{\frac{0.39*0.61}{1300}} = 0.0135[/tex]

Distribution of the difference:

[tex]p = p_M - p_S = 0.5 - 0.39 = 0.11[/tex]

So the point estimate that should be used in constructing the confidence interval is 0.11.

[tex]s = \sqrt{s_M^2+s_S^2} = \sqrt{0.0135^2+0.0135^2} = 0.0191[/tex]

Confidence interval:

[tex]p \pm zs[/tex]

In which

z is the z-score that has a p-value of [tex]1 - \frac{\alpha}{2}[/tex].

80% confidence level

So [tex]\alpha = 0.2[/tex], z is the value of Z that has a p-value of [tex]1 - \frac{0.2}{2} = 0.9[/tex], so [tex]Z = 1.28[/tex].  

The lower bound of the interval is:

[tex]p - zs = 0.11 - 1.28*0.0191 = 0.0856[/tex]

The upper bound of the interval is:

[tex]p + zs = 0.11 + 1.28*0.0191 = 0.1344[/tex]

The 80% confidence interval for the difference in two proportions is (0.0856, 0.1344).

Step-by-step explanation:

tan S = opp side / adj side

tan S = sqrt(42)/ sqrt (11)

tan S = sqrt(42/11)

Taking the inverse tan of each side

tan ^ -1( tan S) =  tan ^-1(sqrt(42/11))

S=62.89816

Rounding to the nearest tenth

If we use the Pythagorean theorem, we can find if it is a right triangle. To do that, set up an equation.

[tex]6^{2}+8^{2}=c^2[/tex]

If the triangle is a right triangle, c would equal 11

Solve.

[tex]36+64=100[/tex]

Then find the square root of 100.

The square root of 100 is 10, not 11.

So this is not a right triangle.

O a = 3
O a = 19

Answers

It’s c for sure only because I had it on a test

The value of a that would make the data in the table represent a linear function with a rate of change of -8 is a = 19.

Option D is the correct answer.

What is a function?

A function has an input and an output.

A function can be one-to-one or onto one.

It simply indicated the relationships between the input and the output.

Example:

f(x) = 2x + 1

f(1) = 2 + 1 = 3

f(2) = 2 x 2 + 1 = 4 + 1 = 5

The outputs of the functions are 3 and 5

The inputs of the function are 1 and 2.

We have,

The rate of change of a linear function is also known as the slope of the function.

To determine the slope of the function represented by the given table, we need to calculate the change in Y for a unit change in X.

Using the values given in the table, we can calculate the slope as follows:

Slope = (Change in Y) / (Change in X)

So,

(a - 27) / (11 - 10) = (11 - 27) / (12 - 10) = -8

Setting this equation equal to -8, we get:

= (a - 27) / 1

= -8

Simplifying the equation, we get:

a - 27 = -8

a = 19

Therefore,

The value of a that would make the data in the table represent a linear function with a rate of change of -8 is a = 19.

By selling a radio for $8400 a dealer gained 12% .how much money did she gain​

Answers

Answer:

Amount gained = $900

Step-by-step explanation:

Let the cost price be = x

Given selling price = 8400

And profit% = 12%

Profit = selling price - cost price

        = 8400 - x

[tex]Profit \ \% = \frac{profit}{cost \ price} \times 100\\\\12\% = \frac{8400 - x}{x} \times 100\\\\\ 12 \times \frac{1}{100} = \frac{8400 - x}{x}\\\\\frac{12 \ x}{100} = 8400 - x \\\\\frac{12x}{100} + x = 8400\\\\12x + 100x = 8400 \times 100\\\\112x = 8400 \times 100\\\\x = \frac{8400 \times 100}{112} = 7500[/tex]

Therefore , cost price of the radio $7500

The amount she gained = 8400 - 7500 = $ 900

EG = GD = 3.5 (7/2)

There is a right triangle now, GCD

GD is 3.5 and CD is 10. To determine angle D, we can apply trigonometric function:

CD is H, and GD is A

cos D = A/H

cos D = 3.5/10 → 0.35

angle D = 69° 30'

By theory, we know that angle D and angle A, are the same so:

Angle D = Angle A = 69° 30'

Angle B = Angle C

We also make a cuadrilateral, which is EFCD.

Angle D is 69° 30', Angle E is 90°, Angle F is also 90°

Sum of angles in cuadrilateral is 360°

360° - 69° 30' - 90° - 90° = Angle C = Angle B

Angle C = Angle B = 110° 30'

Let's confirm the angles in the trapezoid:

69° 30' + 110° 30' + 69° 30' + 110° 30' = 360°

Which side of the polygon is exactly 6 units long?

Answers

Answer:

AB is correct as It is the shorter parallel line

as the line measures 6 units.

Step-by-step explanation:

The polygon is a trapezoid / (trapezium Eng/Europe)

We see the given coordinates  (2, 6) - (-4, 6) = x-6 y 0 = x = 6units

as x always is shown as x - 6  as  x= 6

We can also show workings as y2-y1/x2-x1 = 6-6/-4-2 0/-6

y = 0  x = 6 = 6 units as its horizontal line.

when y is 6-6 = 0 then we know the line is horizontal for y = 0.

The difference of the measures -4 to 2 is 6units so if no workings we just add on from -4 to 2 and find the answer is 6 units long.

When looking at diagonal lines we still group the x's and y's and make the fraction whole.

When looking for solid vertical lines that aren't shown here we use the y values if showing workings and show x =0 to cancel out.

Cyril has six more than twice as many mangoes as Kubie and half as many mangoes as Maxine. If Kubie has six mangoes, then, in terms of x, how many mangoes do Cyril, Kubie, and Maxine have combined?​

Answers

Answer:

(7x + 18) or 60 Mangoes

Step-by-step explanation:

Let the no. of mangoes Kubie possesses be x

So,

Cyril has mangoes = 2x + 6  ...(i)

So,

Maxine has = 2 * (2x + 6)

= 4x + 12

Given that,

Kubie has mangoes = 6

∵ The combined mangoes they have in terms of x,

= Cyril + Kubie + Maxine

= (2x + 6) + x + (4x + 12)

= 7x + 18

A.T.Q.

Cyril has = 2x + 6

∵ Cyril has mangoes = 2 * (6) + 6

= 18 mangoes

∵ Maxine has = 2 * Cyril's mangoes

= 2 * 18

= 36

Thus,

Total mangoes = Cyril + Kubie + Maxine

= 18 + 6 + 36

= 60 Mangoes
