A statistician calculates that 8% of Americans own a Rolls Royce. If the statistician is right, what is the probability that the proportion of Rolls Royce owners in a sample of 595 Americans would differ from the population proportion by more than 3%
Answer:
0.007 = 0.7% probability that the proportion of Rolls Royce owners in a sample of 595 Americans would differ from the population proportion by more 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 statistician calculates that 8% of Americans own a Rolls Royce.
This means that [tex]p = 0.08[/tex]
Sample of 595:
This means that [tex]n = 595[/tex]
Mean and standard deviation:
[tex]\mu = p = 0.08[/tex]
[tex]s = \sqrt{\frac{p(1-p)}{n}} = \sqrt{\frac{0.08*0.92}{595}} = 0.0111[/tex]
What is the probability that the proportion of Rolls Royce owners in a sample of 595 Americans would differ from the population proportion by more than 3%?
Proportion above 8% + 3% = 11% or below 8% - 3% = 5%. Since the normal distribution is symmetric, these probabilities are equal, and so we find one of them and multiply by 2.
Probability the proportion is less than 5%:
P-value of Z when X = 0.05. So
[tex]Z = \frac{X - \mu}{\sigma}[/tex]
By the Central Limit Theorem
[tex]Z = \frac{X - \mu}{s}[/tex]
[tex]Z = \frac{0.05 - 0.08}{0.0111}[/tex]
[tex]Z = -2.7[/tex]
[tex]Z = -2.7[/tex] has a p-value of 0.0035
2*0.0035 = 0.0070
0.007 = 0.7% probability that the proportion of Rolls Royce owners in a sample of 595 Americans would differ from the population proportion by more than 3%

Answer:
Depends on how the 3 and the 18 are positioned in the fractions on the equation.
47/3
4
Step-by-step explanation:
Step 1. To simplify this, you need to know one of the most basic sayings in math which summarizes the Order of Operations: PEMDAS
Using PEMDAS:
P- Parenthesis
E- Exponents
M- Multiply
D- Divide
A- Add
S- Subtract
P- Parenthesis: We start off by preforming the parts of the equation within the parenthesis.
The 2 on the outside of the parenthesis, will not affect anything until we deal with what is inside the parenthesis.
The next part that we do, is to go through the rest of the steps, looking for either exponents, multiplication or division, skipping over the adding and subtracting until those are done.
The next part that we see, is Division.
D- Division
We find the point of division after the 18. The value we get has to be either:
a. 3/18
b. 18/3
depending on what you were asking for.
The equation, 2(12-18\3+4) at the bolded point, states that the division should be 1/6 because of the way of the division symbol.
Now the equation should either be one of the following:
a. 2(12-1/6+4)
b. 2(12-6+4)
A-Addition
Now, we can add the 4 to the number we got before, which should get us either
A. 1/6+4
B. 6+4
which added together gets us either
A. 25/6<=>4+1/6
B. 10
S-Subtraction
Now, we subtract both parts from the value of 12 getting us:
A. 12-(4+1/6)=12-4-1/6=8-1/6=7+5/6<=>47/6
B. 12-10=2
M-multiply:
Now we move on to the 2 we put aside earlier and multiply both of the answers:
A. 2(47/6)=47/3 or 15+2/3
B. 2(2)=4
Thus the answer is either 47/3 or 4
The average revenue collected on this flight is $145/seat. However, if the flight is overbooked and the airline needs to rebook a ticketed passenger, United typically gives the customer a free round-trip ticket for a future flight. The cost of this free round-trip ticket averages $330. By how many seats should United overbook for this route
This question is incomplete, the complete question is;
United Airline flights from Newark to Seattle are typically booked to capacity. However, due to United’s current lenient rebooking policies, on average 17 customers (with a standard deviation of 10) cancel or are no shows for these flights. The average revenue collected on this flight is is $145/seat. However, if the flight is overbooked and the airline needs to rebook a ticketed passenger, United typically gives the customer a free round-trip ticket for a future flight. The cost of this free round-trip ticket averages $330. By how many seats should United overbook for this route?
Answer:
the number of seats that should be overbooked is approximately 12
Step-by-step explanation:
Given the data in the question;
average = 17 customers
standard deviation = 10
Cost of under booking the flight ( underage ); Cu = $145
Cost of overbooking the flight ( Overage ); Co = $330
we calculate the service level
service level = Cu / ( Cu + Co )
we substitute
Service level = 145 / ( 330 + 145 )
= 145 / 475
Service level = 0.3053
In excel, we use NORMSIV function to determine the z-value
z-value = NORMSIV ( 0.3053 )
z -value = -0.509
Now, the number of seats (Q) that should be overbooked will be;
Q = Average cancellations + Z-value × S.D
we substitute
Q = 17 + ( -0.509 × 10 )
Q = 17 + ( -5.09 )
Q = 17 - 5.09
Q = 11.91 ≈ 12
Therefore, the number of seats that should be overbooked is approximately 12
Insert a digit in place of each “…” to make numbers that are divisible by 6 if it
is possible:
4…6
?
Answer: Either 2, 5, or 8
This means the number 426 is divisible by 6. So are 456 and 486
===============================================================
Explanation:
A number is divisible by 6 if both of the following are true
The number is divisible by 2The number is divisible by 3This is simply because 6 = 2*3. So if 6 is a factor of a number, then 2 and 3 must be factors.
To have 2 be a factor, the units digit must be in the set {0,2,4,6,8} which is the case here (the units digit is 6 in this case). Therefore we know the number is a multiple of 2 regardless of what the other digits are. To have 3 be a factor, the digits must add up to a multiple of 3. Through trial and error, we see that 0 doesn't work because 4+0+6 = 10 which is not a multiple of 3. Same goes for 4+1+6 = 11, but 4+2+6 = 12 is a multiple of 3.Therefore, 426 is a multiple of 6
Increment that middle digit 2 by 3 and we jump from 426 to 456. Those three digits add to a multiple of 3 as well (4+5+6 = 15). Following that line of logic, we go from 456 to 486 as the last possible three digit number that has these conditions of having 4 first and 6 last, and the number is a multiple of 6.
-------------------------------
In short,
The numbers 426 and 456 and 486 are all multiples of 6 since they are multiples of 2 and 3 at the same time.
So we could replace that middle digit with either 2, 5 or 8.

Recall :
a^b where, a = base ; b = exponent
In ; (3/5)^3
Base = 3/5 ; exponent = 3
Similarly ;
a^b = a in b places
(3/5)^3 = (3/5) * (3/5) * (3/5)
(3/5) * (3/5) * (3/5) = (3*3*3) / (5*5*5) = 27/125

Dale hikes up a mountain trail at 2 mph. Because Dale hikes at 4 mph downhill, the trip down the mountain takes 30 minutes less time than the trip up, even though the downward trail is 3 miles longer. How many mile did Dale hike in all?
Answer:
13 miles
Step-by-step explanation:
He hikes 4 mph downhill and it takes 30 minutes or 0.5 hours lesser than the trip uphill at 2 mph.
Thus, if the distance upward is x and we are told the distance downhill is 3 miles longer.
Then, since time = distance/speed, we have;
((x + 3)/4) + 0.5 = x/2
Multiply through by 4 to get;
x + 3 + (0.5 × 4) = 2x
x + 5 = 2x
2x - x = 5
x = 5 miles
Now, it means distance uphill = 5 miles and distance downhill = 5 + 3 = 8 miles
Thus, total distance covered = 8 + 5 = 13 miles

82 less than r is less than -164
Answer:
82<r<-164
Step-by-step explanation:
We need to form an inequality of the given statement.
82 less than r is less than -164
Less than is written as <.
82 less than r means, 82<r
r is less than -164, r<-164
Combining two statements,
82<r<-164
Hence, the expression for 82 less than r is less than -164 is 82<r<-164.

There are four different colored balls in a bag. There is equal probability of selecting the red, black, green, or blue ball.What is the expected value of getting a green ball out of 20 experiments with replacement?
Answer:
The expected value is of 5 green balls.
Step-by-step explanation:
For each experiment, there are only two possible outcomes. Either it is a green ball, or it is not. Since there is replacement, the probability of a green ball being taken in an experiment is independent of any other experiments, which means that the binomial probability distribution is used to solve this question.
Binomial probability distribution
Probability of exactly x successes on n repeated trials, with p probability.
The expected value of the binomial distribution is:
[tex]E(X) = np[/tex]
20 experiments
This means that [tex]n = 20[/tex]
There is equal probability of selecting the red, black, green, or blue ball.
This means that 1 in 4 are green, so [tex]p = \frac{1}{4} = 0.25[/tex]
What is the expected value of getting a green ball out of 20 experiments with replacement?
[tex]E(X) = np = 20*0.25 = 5[/tex]
The expected value is of 5 green balls.
The expected value of getting a green ball out of 20 experiments with replacement is 5.
What is a binomial distribution?The binomial probability distribution of the number of successes in a sequence of n independent experiments is the binomial distribution with parameters n and p.
As it is given that the probability of all the balls coming out of the bag is equal. Therefore, the probability of a green ball coming can be written as,
[tex]\text{Probability of Green Ball} = 0.25[/tex]
Also, we can write the probability of not getting a green ball can also be written as,
[tex]\rm Probability(\text{Not coming Green Ball}) = P(Red\ ball)+P(Black\ ball)+P(Blue\ ball)[/tex]
[tex]=0.25+0.25+0.25\\\\=0.75[/tex]
Now, as there are only two outcomes possible, therefore, the distribution of the probability is a binomial distribution. And we know that the expected value of a binomial distribution is given as,
[tex]\rm Expected\ Value, E(x) = np[/tex]
where n is the number of trials while p represents the probability.
Now, substituting the values, we will get the expected value,
[tex]\rm Expected\ Value, E(Green\ ball) = 20 \times 0.25 = 5[/tex]
Hence, the expected value of getting a green ball out of 20 experiments with replacement is 5.

At noon, ship A is 150 km west of ship B. Ship A is sailing east at 30 km/h and ship B is sailing north at 25 km/h. How fast is the distance between the ships changing at 4:00 PM?
Answer:
At 4:00 PM the distance between the two ships is 104.40 kilometers.
Step-by-step explanation:
Given that at noon, ship A is 150 km west of ship B, and ship A is sailing east at 30 km / h and ship B is sailing north at 25 km / h, to determine how fast is the distance between the ships changing at 4:00 PM the following calculation must be performed:
150 - (30 x 4) = 150 - 120 = 30
0 + (25 x 4) = 0 + 100 = 100
30 ^ 2 + 100 ^ 2 = X ^ 2
√ (900 + 10,000) = X
√10,900 = X
104.40 = X
Therefore, at 4:00 PM the distance between the two ships is 104.40 kilometers.

D. -41
-41
Step-by-step explanation:The remainder theorem states that when a polynomial F(x) is divided by (x - k) the remainder is F(k). In other words, the remainder when f(x) is divided by (x-k) is calculated by simply calculating F(k).
Given:
F(x) = x³ - 9x² + 5x - 2 -----------------(i)
To calculate F(3), substitute x = 3 into equation (i) as follows;
F(3) = (3)³ - 9(3)² + 5(3) - 2
F(3) = 27 - 81 + 15 - 2
F(3) = -41
This means that if the polynomial F(x) = x³ - 9x² + 5x - 2 is divided by x - 3, the remainder will be -41.
