Answer:
Poisson, as we have the mean number and not a proportion.
Step-by-step explanation:
We have the mean number of vehicle deaths per year, thus, since it is a mean and not a proportion, we use the Poisson distribution.
If we were working with the proportion of accidents that end in death for example, or any other proportion, it would be a binomial random variable.

A researcher wishes to estimate the proportion of adults who have high-speed Internet access. What size sample should be obtained if she wishes the estimate to be within with % confidence if (a) she uses a previous estimate of ? (b) she does not use any prior estimates?
Answer:
732 samples ;
752 samples
Step-by-step explanation:
Given :
α = 90% ; M.E = 0.03 ; p = 0.58 ; 1 - p = 1 - 0.58 = 0.42
Using the relation :
n = (Z² * p * (1 - p)) / M.E²
Zcritical at 90% = 1.645
n = (1.645² * 0.58 * 0.42) / 0.03²
n = 0.65918769 / 0.0009
n = 732.43076
n = 732 samples
B.)
If no prior estimate is given, then p = 0.5 ; 1 - p = 1 - 0.5 = 0.5
n = (Z² * p * (1 - p)) / M.E²
Zcritical at 90% = 1.645
n = (1.645² * 0.5 * 0.5) / 0.03²
n = 0.67650625 / 0.0009
n = 751.67361
n = 752 samples
he radioactive element carbon-14 has a half-life of 5750 years. A scientist determined that the bones from a mastodon had lost 77.8 % of their carbon-14. How old were the bones at the time they were discovered?
Answer:
The bones were 12,485 years old at the time they were discovered.
Step-by-step explanation:
Amount of the element:
The amount of the element after t years is given by the following equation, considering the decay rate proportional to the amount present:
[tex]A(t) = A(0)e^{-kt}[/tex]
In which A(0) is the initial amount and k is the decay rate, as a decimal.
The radioactive element carbon-14 has a half-life of 5750 years.
This means that [tex]A(5750) = 0.5A(0)[/tex], and we use this to find k. So
[tex]A(t) = A(0)e^{-kt}[/tex]
[tex]0.5A(0) = A(0)e^{-5750k}[/tex]
[tex]e^{-5750k} = 0.5[/tex]
[tex]\ln{e^{-5750k}} = \ln{0.5}[/tex]
[tex]-5750k = \ln{0.5}[/tex]
[tex]k = -\frac{\ln{0.5}}{5750}[/tex]
[tex]k = 0.00012054733[/tex]
So
[tex]A(t) = A(0)e^{-0.00012054733t}[/tex]
A scientist determined that the bones from a mastodon had lost 77.8 % of their carbon-14. How old were the bones at the time they were discovered?
Had 100 - 77.8 = 22.2% remaining, so this is t for which:
[tex]A(t) = 0.222A(0)[/tex]
Then
[tex]0.222A(0) = A(0)e^{-0.00012054733t}[/tex]
[tex]e^{-0.00012054733t} = 0.222[/tex]
[tex]\ln{e^{-0.00012054733t}} = \ln{0.222}[/tex]
[tex]-0.00012054733t = \ln{0.222}[/tex]
[tex]t = -\frac{\ln{0.222}}{0.00012054733}[/tex]
[tex]t = 12485[/tex]
The bones were 12,485 years old at the time they were discovered.

A pharmacist wants to make 36ml of a 65% hydrogen peroxide solution. how many pls of 75% hydrogen peroxide must he mix with 57% hydrogen peroxide to make the desired solution?
Answer:
16 mls of the 75% solution and 20 mls of the 0.57% solution.
Step-by-step explanation:
Set up a system of equations:
Let x = volume of 75% solution and y be volume of 57% solution
0.75x + 0.57y = 36*0.65
0.75x + 0.57y = 23.4.......(1)
x + y = 36.........(2)
From equation (2):
y = 36 - x
Substituting this into equation(1):
0.75x + (0.57(36 - x) = 23.4
0.75x + 20.52 - 0.57x = 23.4
0.18x = 23.40 - 20.52 = 2.88
x = 2.88/0.18
x = 16
so from equation (2): y = 36-16 = 20.
13 A traffic roundabout has a circular garden
in the centre and two lanes for traffic
encircling the garden. The diameter of the
garden is 16 metres and each lane is 3 metres
wide. Each lane is to be resurfaced. Calculate
the area to be resurfaced. Answer in square
metres to the nearest whole number.
Answer:
Step-by-step explanation:
The area to be resurfaced is the area of the
whole circle including garden and lanes minus
the area of the garden.
Area of a circle is (pi)r2
radius of garden is (1/2)diameter = 8 m
Garden area: (pi)82 = 64(pi) m2
Diameter of garden plus traffic lanes is
16 + 2(6) because we add 6 m to both sides
of the diameter of the garden.
Full diameter = 16+12 = 28 m
Full radius = 28/2 = 14 m
Full area: (pi)142 = 196(pi) m2
Area to be resurfaced:
196(pi) - 64(pi) = 132(pi) m2 ≅ 415 m2

Answer:
Julio's gross income before the tax deductions is $ 405.
Step-by-step explanation:
Given that Julio has a net pay of $ 537.00 each paycheck, and he pays $ 142.00 in pre-tax deductions and taxes each paycheck, to determine what is Julio's gross income before the tax deductions the following calculation must be performed:
547 - 142 = X
405 = X
Therefore, Julio's gross income before the tax deductions is $ 405.

Write a word description of the set.
{−9, −8, −7, −6, −5, −4, −3, −2, −1}
the set of which one whole numbers,natural numbers, negative integers or integers
greater than__________________.
Answer: negative integers greater than -10
This is because stuff on the number line to the right is larger than stuff on the left. We can say 2 < 7 since 7 is to the right of 2.
Also, -7 < -2 for similar reasoning.
Saying integers greater than -10 excludes this endpoint. We stop once we reach -1 because 0 and anything larger aren't negative integers.
The credit department of Lion's Department Store in Anaheim, California, reported that 30% of their sales are cash, 30% are paid with a credit card, and 40% with a debit card. Twenty percent of the cash purchases, 90% of the credit card purchases, and 60% of the debit card purchases are for more than $50. Ms. Tina Stevens just purchased a new dress that cost $120. What is the probability that she paid cash?
Answer:
Hence the probability that she paid cash is 0.105
Step-by-step explanation:
P(cash) = 0.3
P(credit card ) = 0.3
P(debit card ) = 0.4
P ( more than $50 | cash ) = 0.2
P (more than $50 | credit card ) =0.9
P (more than $ 50 |debit card ) = 0.6
P ( more than $50) = P ( more than $50 | cash )* P (cash) + P (more than $50 credit card ) * P(credit card ) + P (more than $ 50 |debit card )* P(debit card )
= 0.2 * 0.3 + 0.9 * 0.3 + 0.6* 0.4
= 0.57
P ( more than $50) = P ( more than $50 | cash )* P (cash) / P ( more than $50)
= 0.2* 0.3 / 0.57
= 0.105
if a circle’s circumference is decreased by12% what percent is the diameter decreased by?
A) 2√3 %
b) 6 %
C) 12 %
D)24%
Answer:
A) 12%
Step-by-step explanation:
Lets assume a random diameter to work with. I will use a diameter of 10.
Circumference = πD
Circumference = π * 10
Circumference = 31.415
Decreasing the circumference by 12%
31.415 * 0.12 = 3.769
31.415 - 3.769 = 27.64
To find out what percent the diameter is reduced by we will find out the new diameter with the new circumference
Circumference = πD
27.64 = π * D
D = 27.64 / π
New Diameter = 8.8
OldD - NewD
10 - 8.8 = 1.2
1.2/10 = 0.12
The diameter decreased by 12%
The diameter of the circle decreased by 12% due to decrease of circles circumference by 12%.
What is a circle?A circle is a geometrical figure which becomes by plotting a point around a fixed point by keeping a constant distance.
The diameter is the longest line that can be drawn inside a circle.
Area of circle = πr² and the perimeter of circle = 2πr where r is the radius of the circle.
Let's say the diameter of the circle is D
Circumference of circle = πD
12% of Circumference = (12/100) × πD
⇒ 0.12πD
So new circumference will be
πD - 0.12πD = 0.88πD
Now let say new diameter after decreasing circumference is d
Circumference of new circle will be
πd = 0.88πD
d = 0.88D
% decrement = (change/original) × 100
diameter decrease = (D - 0.88D)/D × 100
⇒ 12% hence it will be correct answer.

Do not evaluate each of the math expressions above.
===========================================================
Explanation:
The given confidence interval is in the form (L, U)
L = lower bound = 0.053U = upper bound = 0.097Find the midpoint of L and U to get
(L+U)/2 = (0.053+0.097)/2 = 0.075
This is the value of [tex]\hat{p}[/tex] which is the symbol p-hat or phat (both pronounced the same). It's the sample proportion.
To get the margin of error E, we could do either of the following
E = (U-L)/2 = (0.097-0.053)/2 = 0.022E = U - phat = 0.097 - 0.075 = 0.022E = phat - L = 0.075 - 0.053 = 0.022This value of E represents half the width of the confidence interval. The full width being U-L.
