Answer 1

Answer:

number of successes

                 [tex]k = 235[/tex]

number of failure

                 [tex]y = 265[/tex]

The   criteria are met    

A

    The sample proportion is  [tex]\r p = 0.47[/tex]

B

    [tex]E =4.4 \%[/tex]

C

What this mean is that for N number of times the survey is carried out that the which sample proportion obtain will differ from  the true population proportion will not  more than 4.4%

Ci  

   [tex]r = 0.514 = 51.4 \%[/tex]

 [tex]v = 0.426 = 42.6 \%[/tex]

D

   This 95% confidence interval  mean that the the chance of the true    population proportion of those that are happy to be exist within the upper   and the lower limit  is  95%

E

  Given that 50% of the population proportion  lie with the 95% confidence interval  the it correct to say that it is reasonably likely that a majority of U.S. adults were happy at that time

F

 Yes our result would support the claim because

            [tex]\frac{1}{3 } \ of N < \frac{1}{2} (50\%) \ of \ N , \ Where\ N \ is \ the \ population\ size[/tex]

Step-by-step explanation:

From the question we are told that

     The sample size is  [tex]n = 500[/tex]

     The sample proportion is  [tex]\r p = 0.47[/tex]

 

Generally the number of successes is mathematical represented as

             [tex]k = n * \r p[/tex]

substituting values

             [tex]k = 500 * 0.47[/tex]

            [tex]k = 235[/tex]

Generally the number of failure  is mathematical represented as

           [tex]y = n * (1 -\r p )[/tex]

substituting values

           [tex]y = 500 * (1 - 0.47 )[/tex]

           [tex]y = 265[/tex]

for approximate normality for a confidence interval  criteria to be satisfied

          [tex]np > 5 \ and \ n(1- p ) \ >5[/tex]

Given that the above is true for this survey then we can say that the criteria are met

  Given that the confidence level is  95%  then the level of confidence is mathematically 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} } = 1.96[/tex]

Generally the margin of error is mathematically represented as  

                [tex]E = Z_{\frac{\alpha }{2} } * \sqrt{ \frac{\r p (1- \r p}{n} }[/tex]

substituting values

                 [tex]E = 1.96 * \sqrt{ \frac{0.47 (1- 0.47}{500} }[/tex]

                 [tex]E = 0.044[/tex]

=>               [tex]E =4.4 \%[/tex]

What this mean is that for N number of times the survey is carried out that the proportion obtain will differ from  the true population proportion of those that are happy by more than 4.4%

The 95% confidence interval is mathematically represented as

          [tex]\r p - E < p < \r p + E[/tex]

substituting values

        [tex]0.47 - 0.044 < p < 0.47 + 0.044[/tex]

         [tex]0.426 < p < 0.514[/tex]

The upper limit of the 95% confidence interval is  [tex]r = 0.514 = 51.4 \%[/tex]

The lower limit of the   95% confidence interval is  [tex]v = 0.426 = 42.6 \%[/tex]

This 95% confidence interval  mean that the the chance of the true population proportion of those that are happy to be exist within the upper and the lower limit  is  95%

Given that 50% of the population proportion  lie with the 95% confidence interval  the it correct to say that it is reasonably likely that a majority of U.S. adults were happy at that time

Yes our result would support the claim because

            [tex]\frac{1}{3 } < \frac{1}{2} (50\%)[/tex]

What is the common difference in the arithmetic sequence 1,1.25,1.5,1.75,… ?

Answers

Answer:

0.25.

Step-by-step explanation:

To find the common difference, you need to find the number that each value increases by.

1.75 - 1.5 = 0.25.

1.5 - 1.25 = 0.25.

1.25 - 1 = 0.25.

All values apparently increase by 0.25. So, that is your common difference.

Hope this helps!

Answer:

0.25

Step-by-step explanation:

The common difference is the value added to the first term to get the second term, then added to the second to get the third and so on.

To find the common difference, subtract the first term from the second. Then check by subtracting the second term from the third.

The sequence is:  1,1.25,1.5,1.75

second term - first term

1.25- 1= 0.25

third term- second term

1.5 -1.25= 0.25

The common difference in the arithmetic sequence is 0.25

write the equation of a horizontal ellipse with a major axis of 18, and minor axis of 10, and a center at (-4, 5).​

Answers

See the attached picture

[tex]\bold{\text{Answer:}\quad \dfrac{(x+4)^2}{81}+\dfrac{(y-5)^2}{25}=1}[/tex]

Step-by-step explanation:

A "horizontal" ellipse means that the x-radius is bigger than the y-radius.  Thus, x is the major axis and y is the minor axis.

The equation of an ellipse is: [tex]\dfrac{(x-h)^2}{a^2}+\dfrac{(y-k)^2}{b^2}=1[/tex]      where

(h, k) is the center of the ellipsea is the radius on the x-axisb is the radius on the y-axis

It is given that the center is at (-4, 5) --> h = -4, k = 5

It is given that the major axis has a length of 18 --> x-radius = 9

It is given that the minor axis has a length of 10 --> y-radius = 5

Input those values into the equation of an ellipse to get:

[tex]\dfrac{(x-(-4))^2}{9^2}+\dfrac{(y-5)^2}{5^2}=1[/tex]

Simplify to get:

[tex]\dfrac{(x+4)^2}{81}+\dfrac{(y-5)^2}{25}=1[/tex]

Renting a car costs $30 per day, or $600 per month. Renting daily is cheaper for a few days, but after how many days are the two options equal (after which renting monthly is cheaper)?

Answers

Answer:

20 days

Step-by-step explanation:

Renting a car costs $30 per day.

y = 30x

Renting a car costs $600 per month

y = 600

Set the two equations equal to each other.

30x = 600

(30x)/30 = (600)/30

x = 20

After 20 days, the two options have an equal cost.

A right triangle has vertices (−7,9),(3,9),(−7,−15). Find the perimeter of the triangle. please help. a simple formula will due. and an explanation

Answers

Answer:

  60

Step-by-step explanation:

If the sides of the triangle have lengths a, b, c, the perimeter is their sum:

  P = a + b + c

Any of the side lengths can be found using the distance formula. However, since two of the sides are aligned with the axes, their lengths are easily found by subtracting coordinates.

If the points are labeled A, B, C, in order, then the two right-angle sides are ...

  c = AB = 3 -(-7) = 10

  b = AC = 9 -(-15) = 24

The Pythagorean theorem tells you that you can find the third side from the relation ...

  a² = b² +c²

  a² = 10² +24² = 676

  a = √676 = 26

Now, we can use these values in the formula for the perimeter:

  P = a + b + c = 26 + 24 + 10

  P = 60

The perimeter of the triangle is 60 units.

Step-by-step explanation:

We can find the slope using the slope formula

m = ( y2-y1)/(x2-x1)

   = (1- -7)/(9 - -3)

   = ( 1+7)/( 9+3)

   = 8/12

Simplifying

   = 2/3

Answer:

C. 2/3

Step-by-step explanation:

You can use the equation: [tex]y_{2} - y_{1}/x_{2} - x_{1}[/tex] to find the slope.

y2 is equal to the y coordinate of the second point: 1

y1 is equal to the y coordinate of the first point: -7

x2 is equal to the x coordinate of the second point: 9

x1 is equal to the x coordinate of the first point: -3

So if you plug these values into the equation, you will get:

1 - (-7)/ 9- (-3)

= 1 + 7/ 9 + 3

= 8/12

50=cgd

cgd=50

bgd=90

so cgd=50

bgc=40

bgd=90

Answer:

C  90-degrees

Step-by-step explanation:

Using alternate interior angles, you can say m<CGD = 50 degrees.

From here, using the fact that line BE is a bisector of line CF, we know that the sum of degrees of the line BE would be 180 degrees.

So we can say m<EGD + m<CGD + m<BGC = 180.  Plug in our known values.

90 + 50 + m<BGC = 180

m<BGC = 40

And we can see that m<BGD = m<BGC + m<CGD

Thus, m<BGD = 40 + 50 = 90.

So the m<BGD = 90 degrees.

The correct option is (d).

Step-by-step explanation:

The dependent t-test (also known as the paired t-test or paired-samples t-test) compares the two means associated groups to conclude if there is a statistically significant difference amid these two means.

We use the paired t-test if we have 2 measurements on the same item, person or thing. We should also use this test if we have 2 items that are being measured with a unique condition.

For instance, an experimenter tests the effect of a medicine on a group of patients before and after giving the doses.

In this case, the same participants are selected for both the trials.

And the difference between the endurance before and after the usage of the new sports drink are noted.

Thus, the analysis that would be used on the data is the Dependent samples t-test.

The margin of error ________ (increases or decreases) with an increased sample size and ________ (increases or decreases) with an increase in confidence level.

Answers

The margin of error decreases with an increased sample size and increases with an increase in confidence level.

With such a larger sample size, the margin of error lowers (grows or decreases), whereas, at a higher confidence level, it increases (increases or declines).

The margin of error:

A margin of error increases as the confidence level rises, resulting in a larger interval. A margin of error is reduced as confidence is increased, resulting in a narrower interval.By increasing sample size and confidence level, the margin of error lowers and grows.

             Margin of error [tex](E) = Z_c * {\frac{\sigma}{\sqrt{n}}}[/tex]

Here [tex]Z_c[/tex] denotes the confidence level's critical value.Whenever it comes to sample size, n is the number of people who take part in the study.As a result, the margin of error lowers as the sample size grows, and the margin of error increases as the confidence level grows.

a; H0: u= 140 Ha: u ≠ 140 two tailed test.

For a two tailed test the significance level ∝= 0.1 the critical region is given by

t ≤ t ( ∝/2) (n-1) and t > t ( ∝/2) (n-1)

So the critical region will be

t≤ t ( ∝/2) (n-1) =2.353

where

t= x` - u / s/ √n

Sr. No X X²

1 150 22500

2 150 22500

3 180 32400

4 170 28900

∑ 650 106,300

X`= ∑x/n = 650/4= 162.5

s²= 1/n-1 (x-x`)²= 1/n-1 [ ∑x² -(∑x)²/n ]

= 1/3[106,300 -650²/4] = 225

s= 15

Putting the values in the above equation

t= 162.5- 140/ 15/ √4

t= 3

So calculated value of t= 3

b. Therefore reject H0 as t= 3 ≠ t≤ t ( ∝/2) (n-1) =2.353 or

3 > t ( ∝/2) (n-1) =2.353    

c. If we check from the table the p- value is 0.6 which lies between 0.1 and 0.05  therefore reject H0.

d. a 90% confidence interval based on the calculated values will be

x`± 1.645 (s)/ √n

Putting the values

162.5 ±1.645 ( 15/2)

162.5 ±12.3375

174.84 , 150.163

d. Again reject H0 as 140 < 150.163

e. A type II error has not been committed as H0 is rejected.

A train leaves the station traveling north at 75 mph 2 hours later a second train leaves on a parallel track and travels north at 125 mph how far from the station will they meet

Answers

Answer:

At 3 hours, the trains will be equidistant from the station.

Step-by-step explanation:

The first train leaves at 75 miles per hour and has a 2 hour head start.  This will put the first train at mile marker 150 (75 * 2) when the second train leaves the station at 125 mph.

To solve when they will be near each other, we set up an equation to solve for t.

150 + 75t = 125t

150 = 50t

3 = t

So given this value, we know the trains will be equidistant from the train station on parallel tracks after 3 hours.

At a baby shower, 15 guests are in attendance and 4 of them are randomly selected to receive a door prize. If all 4 prizes are identical, in how many ways can the prizes be awarded?

Answers

Answer:

1365

Step-by-step explanation:

We figure out combinations using this formula:    n!

                                                                              r!(n-r)!

n=15

r=4

So n!= 15x14x13x12x11x0x9x8x7x6x5x4x3x2x1

r! = 4x3x2x1 times 15-4!, which is 11! = 11x10x9x8x7x6x5x4x3x2x1

Put this together and you have 15x14x13x12/4x3x2x1=

There are 1365 different ways to award the 4 door prizes to 4 guests from a group of 15 guests.

What are the Combinations?

Combinations are the procedures used in mathematics to pick k things from n different items without replacement.

The following formula computes the combinations of k items from n:

(n, k) = n! / k!×(n-k)!

The number of ways to award the 4 door prizes to 4 guests out of a group of 15 guests is a combinatorial problem that can be calculated using the formula.

Here, n = 15 (the total number of guests) and k = 4 (the number of prizes to be awarded).

So, the number of ways to award the prizes is:

C(15, 4) = 15! / (4! (15 - 4)!)

= 15! / (4! 11!)

= 15 x 14 x 13 x 12 / (4 x 3 x 2 x 1)

= 1365.

Therefore, there are 1365 different ways to award the 4 door prizes to 4 guests from a group of 15 guests.

The numbers of words defined on randomly selected pages from a dictionary are shown below. Find the mean, median, mode of the listed numbers. 72 58 62 38 44 66 42 49 76 52 What is the mean? Select the correct choice below and ,if necessary ,fill in the answer box within your choice.(around to one decimal place as needed)

Answers

Answer:

Mean: 55.9

Median: 55

Mode: None

Step-by-step explanation:

First, find the mean by dividing the sum by the number of elements:

(72 + 58 + 62 + 38 + 44 + 66 + 42 + 49 + 76 + 52) / 10

= 55.9

Next, find the median by putting the numbers in order and finding the middle one:

38, 42, 44, 49, 52, 58, 62, 66, 72, 76

There is no middle number, so we will take the average of 52 and 58, which is 55.

Lastly, to find the mode, we have to find the number that occurs the most.

All of the numbers occur one time, so there is no mode.
