Answer 1

Answer:

a simple random sample (SRS).

Step-by-step explanation:

In Statistics, sampling can be defined as a process used to collect or select data (objects, observations, or individuals) from a larger statistical population using specific procedures.

There are various types of sampling used by researchers and these are;

1. Systematic sampling.

2. Convenience sampling.

3. Stratified sampling.

4. Cluster sampling.

5. Random sampling.

Random sampling also referred to as simple random sample (SRS) involves randomly selecting a subset of a larger population.

In this scenario, an elected government official randomly selected five schools at random from the 20 schools in her area and then interviews each of the teachers in those five schools, in order to get their opinions about voting. Thus, the government official is using a simple random sample (SRS).

A polygraph (lie detector) is an instrument used to determine if an individual is telling the truth. These tests are considered to be 90% reliable. In other words, if an individual lies, there is a 0.90 probability that the test will detect a lie. Let there also be a 0.045 probability that the test erroneously detects a lie even when the individual is actually telling the truth. Consider the null hypothesis, "the individual is telling the truth," to answer the following questions
a. What is the probability of a Type I error? (Round your answer to 3 decimal places.)
b. What is the probability of a Type II error? (Round your answer to 2 decimal places.

Answers

Answer:

A) P(Type I error) = 0.045

B) P(Type II) error = 0.1

Step-by-step explanation:

We are told that the reliability of the test is 90% reliable.

Also, we are told that the probability that the test erroneously detects a lie even when the individual is actually telling the truth is 0.045.

Thus;

A) To calculate the probability of type I error:

From statistics, in this question we can say that the probability of a type I error is the probability that the test will erroneously detect a lie even though the individual is actually telling the truth. Thus;

Probability of (type I error) = P(rejecting true null) = 0.045

B) For probability of type II error, it is defined as the error where we accept a null hypothesis that is false. We can say that it produces a false negative and the formula is;

P(Type II) error = 1 - reliability

Reliability in the question is 0.90

Thus;

P(Type II) error = 1 - 0.9

P(Type II) error = 0.1

Marina spent $13.50 at the grocery store. She bought pears, kiwis, and pineapples. Pears cost $0.50 each, pineapples cost $1.50 each, and kiwis are $0.30 each. How many did she buy if she bought 9 more pears than pineapples and 2 fewer kiwis than pears?

Answers

Answer:

Number of pineapples= 10

number of pears = 19

number of kiwis = 10 -2 = 8

Step-by-step explanation:

Cost of a pear = $ 0.50

Cost of a pineapple = $ 1.5

cost of a kiwi = $ 0.3

Let the pineapples = p

Number of pears = 9 + p

Number of kiwis = p - 2

The cost is

0.15 p + 0.5 (9 + p) + 0.3 (p - 2) = 13.50

0.15 p + 4.5 + 0.5p + 0.3 p - 0.6 = 13.50

0.95 p = 9.6

p = 10

 

Answer: There is 3 pineapples, 12 pears and 10 kiwis

Enter your answer; 95% confidence interval, lower bound Enter your answer; 95% confidence interval, upper bound (b) Calculate the 99% two-sided confidence interval on the true mean compressive strength of concrete.

Answers

Answer:

95%: (3278.354 ; 3270.083)

99% : (3221.646 ; 3278.354)

Step-by-step explanation:

Given :

Sample size, n = 12

Mean, xbar = 3250

Sample standard deviation = √1000

The 95% confidence interval :

Mean ± Margin of error

Margin of Error = Tcritical * s/√n

Tcritical at 0.05, df=12-1 = 11 ;

Tcritical at 95% = 2.20

Hence,

Margin of Error = (2.20 * √1000/√12) = 20.083

Confidence interval : 3250 ± 20.083

Lower boundary = 3250 - 20.083 = 3229.917

Upper boundary = 3250 + 20.083 = 3270.083

2.)

The 99% confidence interval :

Mean ± Margin of error

Margin of Error = Tcritical * s/√n

Tcritical at 0.01, df=12-1 = 11 ;

Tcritical at 99% = 3.106

Hence,

Margin of Error = (3.106 * √1000/√12) = 28.354

Confidence interval : 3250 ± 28.354

Lower boundary = 3250 - 28.354 = 3221.646

Upper boundary = 3250 + 28.354 = 3278.354

A statewide real estate sales agency, Farm Associates, specializes in selling farm property in the state of Nebraska. Its records indicate that the mean selling time of farm property is 90 days. Because of recent drought conditions, the agency believes that the mean selling time is now greater than 90 days. A statewide survey of 100 recently sold farms revealed a mean selling time of 94 days, with a standard deviation of 22 days.
At the 0.10 significance level, has there been an increase in selling time?
a. What is the decision rule? (Round your answer to 3 decimal places.)
b. Compute the value of the test statistic. (Round your answer to 2 decimal places.)
c. What is your decision regarding H0?

Answers

Answer:

Test statistic = 1.818

Reject H0

Step-by-step explanation:

H0 : μ = 90

H1 : μ > 90

xbar = 94 ; s = 22 ; n = 100

The test statistic : (xbar - μ) ÷ (s/√(n))

Test statistic = (94 - 90) ÷ (22/√100)

Test statistic = 4 ÷ 2.2

T = 1.818

The critical value :

At α = 0.10

Degree of freedom = n - 1 = 100 - 1 = 99

Tcritical(0.10, 99) = 1.290

Decison region :

Reject H0 if Test statistic > |Tcritical |

1.818 > 1.290

We reject H0

Which among the following numbers could be the probability of an event? 1,1.4,-0.54,.32,.02,0

Answers

4 Answers: Choice A) 1 Choice D) 0.32 Choice E) 0.02Choice F) 0

In other words, choices B and C are the non-answers while everything else is an answer.

==============================================================

Explanation:

Let p represent the probability of an event. The value of p must be between 0 and 1, inclusive of both endpoints. Symbolically, we can write [tex]0 \le p \le 1[/tex]

In other words, p = 0 is the smallest it can get and p = 1 is the largest it can get, or it could be anything in between.

The probability p = 0 means that the event will never happen, or there's 0% of it happening. The probability p = 1 means there's 100% certainty the event will happen.

Something like p = 1.4 is not possible as this indicates it's over 100%. So that rules out choice B. Choice C is also ruled out because we can't have negative probabilities.

Identify the transformation that occurs to create the graph of g(x). g(x)=f(x)-7

g(x) is obtained by shift the function f(x) down 7 units by subtracting 7 units from f(x).

Step-by-step explanation:

We are given that

[tex]g(x)=f(x)-7[/tex]

We have to identify  the transformation that occurs to create the graph of g(x).

To identify  the transformation that occurs to create the graph of g(x)

We will subtract the 7 from f(x).

Let f(x) be any function

[tex]g(x)=f(x)-k[/tex]

It means g(x) obtained by  shift the function f(x) down  k units by subtracting k units from f(x).

Therefore, g(x) is obtained by shift the function f(x) down 7 units by subtracting 7 units from f(x).

[tex]X = (2, 4)[/tex]

[tex]Y = (1, -1)[/tex]

[tex]Z = (-3,-1)[/tex]

The perimeter

First, calculate the distance between each point using:

[tex]d = \sqrt{(x_1 - x_2)^2 + (y_1 -y_2)^2[/tex]

So, we have:

[tex]WX = \sqrt{(-2- 2)^2 + (4-4)^2 } =4[/tex]

[tex]XY = \sqrt{(2- 1)^2 + (4--1)^2 } =\sqrt{26}[/tex]

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

[tex]ZW = \sqrt{(-3--2)^2 + (-1-4)^2 } =\sqrt{26}[/tex]

So, the perimeter (P) is:

[tex]P = 4 + \sqrt{26} + 4 + \sqrt{26}[/tex]

[tex]P = 8 + 2\sqrt{26}[/tex]

The perimeter of parallelogram WXYZ is 8 + 2√26 units

Perimeter of parallelogram

In order to determine the required perimeter of the parallelogram, we will use the distance formula as shown:

D= √(x2-x1)²+(y2-y1)²

Given the coordinate of the parallelogram shown as:

W(-2, 4)

X (2, 4)

Y(1, -1)

Z(-3, -1).

Since it is a parallelogram, the opposite sides are equal that is:

WX = YZ and XY = WZ
WX = YZ = √(x2-x1)²+(y2-y1)²
WX = YZ = √(2+2)²+(4-4)²

WX = YZ =√(4)²

WX = YZ = 4 units

Similarly

XY = WZ = √(2-1)²+(4+1)²

XY = WZ = √(1)²+(5)²

XY = WZ = √26

Perimeter = 2(4)+ 2(√26)

Perimeter = 8 + 2√26

Hence the perimeter of parallelogram WXYZ is 8 + 2√26 units
