An economist wants to estimate the mean per capita income (in thousands of dollars) for a major city in Texas. He believes that the mean income is $30.8, and the standard deviation is known to be $8.2. How large of a sample would be required in order to estimate the mean per capita income at the 95% level of confidence with an error of at most $0.39

Answers

Answer 1

Answer:

A sample of 1699 would be required.

Step-by-step explanation:

We have that to find our [tex]\alpha[/tex] 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 [tex]1 - \alpha[/tex].

That is z with a pvalue of [tex]1 - 0.025 = 0.975[/tex], so Z = 1.96.

Now, find the margin of error M as such

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

In which [tex]\sigma[/tex] is the standard deviation of the population and n is the size of the sample.

Standard deviation is known to be $8.2.

This means that [tex]\sigma = 8.2[/tex]

How large of a sample would be required in order to estimate the mean per capita income at the 95% level of confidence with an error of at most $0.39?

This is n for which M = 0.39. So

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

[tex]0.39 = 1.96\frac{8.2}{\sqrt{n}}[/tex]

[tex]0.39\sqrt{n} = 1.96*8.2[/tex]

[tex]\sqrt{n} = \frac{1.96*8.2}{0.39}[/tex]

[tex](\sqrt{n})^2 = (\frac{1.96*8.2}{0.39})^2[/tex]

[tex]n = 1698.3[/tex]

Rounding up:

A sample of 1699 would be required.

Chapter 11 part 2:

What are three different properties of logarithmic functions when encountering the operations of addition, subtraction, and multiplication? Provide an example of each.

Answers

The three main log rules you'll encounter are

log(A*B) = log(A) + log(B)log(A/B) = log(A) - log(B)log(A^B) = B*log(A)

The first rule allows us to go from a log of some product, to a sum of two logs. In short, we go from product to sum. The second rule allows us to go from a quotient to a difference. Lastly, the third rule allows to go from an exponential to a product.

Here are examples of each rule being used (in the exact order they were given earlier).

log(2*3) = log(2) + log(3)log(5/8) = log(5) - log(8)log(7^4) = 4*log(7)

----------------

Here's a slightly more complicated example where the log rules are used.

log(x^2y/z)

log(x^2y) - log(z)

log(x^2) + log(y) - log(z)

2*log(x) + log(y) - log(z)

Hopefully you can see which rules are being used for any given step. If not, then let me know and I'll go into more detail.

Answer:

The rest of the tank is 8/8 - 3/8 = 5/8

2/7 distance         x

------------------ = ----------------------

3/8 tank              5/8 tank

Using cross products

2/7 * 5/8 = 3/8x

10/56 = 3/8x

Multiply each side by 8/3

10/56 * 8/3 = 3/8x * 8/3

10/3 * 8/56=x

10/3 * 1/7 =x

Step-by-step explanation:

One year, Alex bought an antique car for his birthday. During the first year he owned it, the
value of the car gained 10%. During the second year, the value of the car gained another
15% from the previous year. If the value of the car is now $37,950.00, how much did Alex
originally pay for his car?

Answers

Answer:

28462.5

Step-by-step explanation:

During the first year it gained 10% and during his second year he gained 15% so you first add those and you get 25%.

Then you multiply 25% with 37,950.

25/100 * 37950 = 948,750/100

= 9487.5

To get the original amount you subtract 9487.5 from 37,950

37,950 - 9487.5 = 28462.5

So the original amount was 28462.5

What is equation?

An equation is a condition on a variable such that two expressions in the variable should have equal value.

What is substitution?

Substitution means replacing the variables (letters) in an algebraic expression with their numerical values.

According to the question.

We have a table which shows the relation between x and y.

Let the missing term be a and b.

The the given equation becomes

[tex]y = ax + b[/tex]

For finding the value of a and b.

Substitute x = 0 and y = 7 in equation y = ax + b.

[tex]\implies 7 = a(0) + b\\\implies b = 7[/tex]

Again, substitute  x = 1 and y = 9 in the equation y = ax+ b

[tex]\implies 9 = a(1) +b\\\implies 9 = a + 7\\\implies a = 2[/tex]

substitute the value of a and b in the equation y = ax + b.

[tex]\implies y = 2x+ 7[/tex]

Therefore, the complete equation is [tex]y = 2x+7[/tex].

One angle of a triangle is equal to the sum of the remaining angles. If the ratio of measures of the ren
is 2:1, find the measures of the three angles of the triangle.

Answers

9514 1404 393

Answer:

  90°, 60°, 30°

Step-by-step explanation:

The remaining angles have a ratio of 2:1, so total 3 "ratio units". The first angle is equal to that sum: 3 ratio units, so all of the angles together total 3+2+1 = 6 ratio units. The total of angles is 180°, so each ratio unit is 180°/6 = 30°.

The first angle is 3 ratio units, or 90°.

The second angle is 2 ratio units, or 60°.

The third angle is half that, or 30°.

The three angles are 90°, 60°, 30°.

3 x {(300 - 70 ÷ 5) - [3 x 23 - (8 - 2 x 3)]}

A.657
B.2433
C. -843

Answers

Answer:

657

Step-by-step explanation:

pemdas

The value of the expression 3 x {(300 - 70 ÷ 5) - [3 x 23 - (8 - 2 x 3)]} is 657.

Hence option A is correct.

Given is an expression, 3 x {(300 - 70 ÷ 5) - [3 x 23 - (8 - 2 x 3)]}, we need to simplify it,

Let's break down the expression step by step:

First, let's simplify the expression inside the innermost parentheses:

8 - 2 x 3 = 8 - 6 = 2

Next, let's simplify the expression inside the brackets:

3 x 23 - 2 = 69 - 2 = 67

Now, let's substitute the simplified expression inside the brackets back into the original expression:

(300 - 70 ÷ 5) - 67

Next, let's simplify the expression inside the remaining parentheses:

70 ÷ 5 = 14

Now, let's substitute the simplified expression inside the parentheses back into the expression:

(300 - 14) - 67

Next, let's simplify the expression inside the remaining parentheses:

300 - 14 = 286

Now, let's substitute the simplified expression inside the parentheses back into the expression:

286 - 67

Finally, let's perform the subtraction:

286 - 67 = 219

Now, let's multiply the result by 3:

3 x 219 = 657

Therefore, the value of the expression 3 x {(300 - 70 ÷ 5) - [3 x 23 - (8 - 2 x 3)]} is 657.

The diameters of ball bearings are distributed normally. The mean diameter is 7373 millimeters and the variance is 44. Find the probability that the diameter of a selected bearing is less than 7676 millimeters. Round your answer to four decimal places.

Answers

Answer:

0.9332

Step-by-step explanation:

We are given that

Mean diameter, [tex]\mu=73[/tex]

Variance, [tex]\sigma^2=4[/tex]

We have to find the probability that the diameter of a selected bearing is less than 76.

Standard deviation, [tex]\sigma=\sqrt{variance}=\sqrt{4}=2[/tex]

[tex]P(x<76)=P(\frac{x-\mu}{\sigma}<\frac{76-73}{2})[/tex]

[tex]P(x<76)=P(Z<\frac{3}{2})[/tex]

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

[tex]P(x<76)=P(Z<1.5)[/tex]

[tex]P(x<76)=0.9332[/tex]

Hence, the probability that the diameter of a selected bearing is less than 76=0.9332
