Answer:

a) 0.6212 = 62.12% probability that the mean price for a sample of 30 federal income tax returns is within $16 of the population mean.

b) 0.7416 = 74.16% probability that the mean price for a sample of 50 federal income tax returns is within $16 of the population mean.

c) 0.8804 = 88.04% probability that the mean price for a sample of 100 federal income tax returns is within $16 of the population mean.

d) None of them ensure, that one which comes closer is a sample size of 100 in option c), to guarantee, we need to keep increasing the sample size.

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.

The CPA Practice Advisor reports that the mean preparation fee for 2017 federal income tax returns was $273. Use this price as the population mean and assume the population standard deviation of preparation fees is $100.

This means that [tex]\mu = 273, \sigma = 100[/tex]

A) What is the probability that the mean price for a sample of 30 federal income tax returns is within $16 of the population mean?

Sample of 30 means that [tex]n = 30, s = \frac{100}{\sqrt{30}}[/tex]

The probability is the p-value of Z when X = 273 + 16 = 289 subtracted by the p-value of Z when X = 273 - 16 = 257. So

X = 289

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

By the Central Limit Theorem

[tex]Z = \frac{X - \mu}{s}[/tex]

[tex]Z = \frac{289 - 273}{\frac{100}{\sqrt{30}}}[/tex]

[tex]Z = 0.88[/tex]

[tex]Z = 0.88[/tex] has a p-value of 0.8106

X = 257

[tex]Z = \frac{X - \mu}{s}[/tex]

[tex]Z = \frac{257 - 273}{\frac{100}{\sqrt{30}}}[/tex]

[tex]Z = -0.88[/tex]

[tex]Z = -0.88[/tex] has a p-value of 0.1894

0.8106 - 0.1894 = 0.6212

0.6212 = 62.12% probability that the mean price for a sample of 30 federal income tax returns is within $16 of the population mean.

B) What is the probability that the mean price for a sample of 50 federal income tax returns is within $16 of the population mean?

Sample of 30 means that [tex]n = 50, s = \frac{100}{\sqrt{50}}[/tex]

X = 289

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

By the Central Limit Theorem

[tex]Z = \frac{X - \mu}{s}[/tex]

[tex]Z = \frac{289 - 273}{\frac{100}{\sqrt{50}}}[/tex]

[tex]Z = 1.13[/tex]

[tex]Z = 1.13[/tex] has a p-value of 0.8708

X = 257

[tex]Z = \frac{X - \mu}{s}[/tex]

[tex]Z = \frac{257 - 273}{\frac{100}{\sqrt{50}}}[/tex]

[tex]Z = -1.13[/tex]

[tex]Z = -1.13[/tex] has a p-value of 0.1292

0.8708 - 0.1292 = 0.7416

0.7416 = 74.16% probability that the mean price for a sample of 50 federal income tax returns is within $16 of the population mean.

C) What is the probability that the mean price for a sample of 100 federal income tax returns is within $16 of the population mean?

Sample of 30 means that [tex]n = 100, s = \frac{100}{\sqrt{100}}[/tex]

X = 289

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

By the Central Limit Theorem

[tex]Z = \frac{X - \mu}{s}[/tex]

[tex]Z = \frac{289 - 273}{\frac{100}{\sqrt{100}}}[/tex]

[tex]Z = 1.6[/tex]

[tex]Z = 1.6[/tex] has a p-value of 0.9452

X = 257

[tex]Z = \frac{X - \mu}{s}[/tex]

[tex]Z = \frac{257 - 273}{\frac{100}{\sqrt{100}}}[/tex]

[tex]Z = -1.6[/tex]

[tex]Z = -1.6[/tex] has a p-value of 0.0648

0.9452 - 0.0648 =

0.8804 = 88.04% probability that the mean price for a sample of 100 federal income tax returns is within $16 of the population mean.

D) Which, if any of the sample sizes in part (a), (b), and (c) would you recommend to ensure at least a .95 probability that the same mean is withing $16 of the population mean?

None of them ensure, that one which comes closer is a sample size of 100 in option c), to guarantee, we need to keep increasing the sample size.

C is actually 0.8904

for anybody else stuck on this wondering why cengage is telling you c is wrong

Answer:

The sales tax on a 320 dollars purchase is of $29.6.

Step-by-step explanation:

State sales tax y is directly proportional to retail price x.

This means that:

[tex]y = cx[/tex]

In which c is the constant of proportionality.

An item that sells for 156 dollars has a sales tax of 14.42 dollars.

This means that [tex]x = 156, y = 14.42[/tex]. We use this to find c. So

[tex]y = cx[/tex]

[tex]14.42 = 156c[/tex]

[tex]c = \frac{14.42}{156}[/tex]

[tex]c = 0.0924[/tex]

Then

[tex]y = 0.0924x[/tex]

What is the sales tax on a 320 dollars purchase?

y when [tex]x = 320[/tex]. So

[tex]y = 0.0924(320) = 29.6[/tex]

The sales tax on a 320 dollars purchase is of $29.6.

Answer:

WHAT IS THE FACTOR?

Step-by-step explanation:

Answer:

a) 0.0147 = 1.47% probability that none of them graduates from the local community college.

b) 0.9398 = 93.98% probability that at most four will graduate from the local community college.

c) The expected number that will graduate is 2.85.

Step-by-step explanation:

For each student, there are only two possible outcomes. Either they will graduate, or they will not. The probability of a student graduating is independent of any other student graduating, which means that the binomial probability distribution is used to solve this question.

Binomial probability distribution

The binomial probability is the probability of exactly x successes on n repeated trials, and X can only have two outcomes.

[tex]P(X = x) = C_{n,x}.p^{x}.(1-p)^{n-x}[/tex]

In which [tex]C_{n,x}[/tex] is the number of different combinations of x objects from a set of n elements, given by the following formula.

[tex]C_{n,x} = \frac{n!}{x!(n-x)!}[/tex]

And p is the probability of X happening.

57% of students who enter the college as freshmen go on to graduate.

This means that [tex]p = 0.57[/tex]

Five freshmen are randomly selected.

This means that [tex]n = 5[/tex]

a. What is the probability that none of them graduates from the local community college?

This is P(X = 0). So

[tex]P(X = x) = C_{n,x}.p^{x}.(1-p)^{n-x}[/tex]

[tex]P(X = 0) = C_{5,0}.(0.57)^{0}.(0.43)^{5} = 0.0147[/tex]

0.0147 = 1.47% probability that none of them graduates from the local community college.

b. What is the probability that at most four will graduate from the local community college?

This is:

[tex]P(X \leq 4) = 1 - P(X = 5)[/tex]

In which

[tex]P(X = x) = C_{n,x}.p^{x}.(1-p)^{n-x}[/tex]

[tex]P(X = 5) = C_{5,5}.(0.57)^{5}.(0.43)^{0} = 0.0602[/tex]

So

[tex]P(X \leq 4) = 1 - P(X = 5) = 1 - 0.0602 = 0.9398[/tex]

0.9398 = 93.98% probability that at most four will graduate from the local community college.

c. What is the expected number that will graduate?

The expected value of the binomial distribution is:

[tex]E(X) = np[/tex]

In this question:

[tex]E(X) = 5*0.57 = 2.85[/tex]

The expected number that will graduate is 2.85.

Answer:

[tex]p=2\\q=4[/tex]

Step-by-step explanation:

One is given the following system of equations,

[tex]3p + 4q = 22\\\\10p + 12q = 68[/tex]

The fastest method to solve a system of equations is the method of elimination. This process is manipulating one of the equations, by multiplying or diving it by a value, such that one of the coefficients variables in the equation is the additive inverse of the like term in the other equation. That way, when one adds the equations, one of the variables cancels out. Then one can solve for the other term. Finally, one can back sovle by substituting the value of the solved variable into one of the equations and simplifying to find the value of the other variable.

[tex]3p + 4q = 22\\\\10p + 12q = 68[/tex]

Manipulate the first equation so that the variable (q) cancels

[tex](3p + 4q = 22) *(-3)\\\\10p + 12q = 68[/tex]

[tex]-9p + -12q = -66\\\\10p + 12q = 68[/tex]

Add the equations,

[tex]-9p + -12q = -66\\\\10p + 12q = 68[/tex]

[tex](10p-9p)+(-12q+12q)=(-66+68)[/tex]

Simplify,

[tex](10p-9p)+(-12q+12q)=(-66+68)[/tex]

[tex]p=2[/tex]

Backsovle for the variable (p). Substitute the values of (p) into one of the original equations. Then simplify and use inverse operations to solve for the variable (q).

[tex]3p+4q=22[/tex]

Substitute,

[tex]3(2)+4q=22[/tex]

Simplify,

[tex]3(2)+4q=22[/tex]

[tex]6+4q=22[/tex]

Inverse operations,

[tex]6+4q=22[/tex]

[tex]4q=16\\q=4[/tex]

Following are the number of ways in which selecting a team A  by 9 children:

[tex]= ^{9_{C_{3}}\\\\\\[/tex]

[tex]=\frac{9!}{3! \times 6!} \\\\=\frac{9\times 8\times 7\times 6!}{3 \times 2\times 1\times 6!}\\\\=\frac{9\times 8\times 7}{3 \times 2\times 1}\\\\=\frac{3\times 4\times 7}{1}\\\\=\frac{84}{1}\\\\=84[/tex]

Following are the number of ways in which selecting a team B  by remaining 6 children:

 [tex]= ^{6}_{C_{3}}[/tex]

[tex]= \frac{6!}{(3! \times 3!)}\\\\= \frac{6!}{(3\times 2\times 1 \times 3!)}\\\\= \frac{6\times 5 \times 4 \times 3!}{(3\times 2\times 1 \times 3!)}\\\\= \frac{ 5 \times 4 \times 3!}{3!}\\\\= 5 \times 4 \\\\=20[/tex]

Following are the number of ways in which selecting a team C  by remaining 3 children:

[tex]= ^{3}_{C_{3}}\\\\=\frac{3!}{3!}\\\\= 1[/tex]

Following are the number of ways in which making 3 teams by 9 children:

[tex]= \frac{(84 \times 20 \times 1)}{3!}\\\\= \frac{(84 \times 20 )}{6}\\\\= 14 \times 20\\\\= 280\\\\[/tex]

(Note: we've split by 3! Because it also is necessary to implement three teams between themselves)

Now 3 leagues have to be played. One is going to be run by each team.

That is the way it is

Different possible divisions

[tex]= 280 \times 3!\\\\= 280 \times (3 \times 2 \times 1)\\\\= 840[/tex]

Step-by-step explanation:

Hi

Answer:

Angle formed by the sector measuring x% will be 126°.

Step-by-step explanation:

Since, sum of all sectors formed in a circle is 100%.

By adding the measures of all the sectors,

x + x + 21 + 9 = 100

2x + 30 = 100

2x = 70

x = 35%

Now we know sum of all the central angles formed at the center of a circle = 360°

Therefore, angle formed by x% = 360° × 35%

                                                    = [tex]\frac{360\times 35}{100}[/tex]

                                                    = 126°

Answer:

1/16,807 chance that they all will be born on Friday

Probably 5/7, but don't take my word for it.

Step-by-step explanation:

There are 7 days of the week.

There is a 1/7 chance for one kid to be born on a certain day of the week.

We can attach an exponent of 5 since the 1/7 is a constant, and I'm not going to bother typing the same thing over and over again.

(1/7)^5 = 1/16,807.

The probability of all of them being born on Friday or anyday is 1/16,807.

The probability of each person being born on a different day of the week is  probabily going to be 5/7, but it could be different, because you need to factor in the requirement that they are not born on the same day.

I can guarantee that the first question is probably correct, but not the second.

Step-by-step explanation:

General Formula :

total trials Cn⋅p(success)^n⋅p(fail)^total−n

1198144* (.0218)^3 * (1-.0218)^191

Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:

We will work in the y-dimension only here. What we need to remember is that acceleration in this dimension is -9.8 m/s/s and that when the projectile reaches its max height, it is here that the final velocity = 0. Another thing we have to remember is that an object reaches its max height exactly halfway through its travels. Putting all of that together, we will solve for t using the following equation.

[tex]v=v_0+at[/tex]

BUT we do not have the upwards velocity of the projectile, we only have the "blanket" velocity. Initial velocity is different in both the x and y dimension. We have formulas to find the initial velocity having been given the "blanket" (or generic) velocity and the angle of inclination. Since we are only working in the y dimension, the formula is

[tex]v_{0y}=V_0sin\theta[/tex] so solving for this initial velocity specific to the y dimension:

[tex]v_{0y}=35sin(35)[/tex] so

[tex]v_{0y}=[/tex] 2.0 × 10¹ m/s

NOW we can fill in our equation from above:

0 = 2.0 × 10¹ + (-9.8)t and

-2.0 × 10¹ = -9.8t so

t = 2.0 seconds

This is how long it takes for the projectile to reach its max height. It will then fall back down to the ground for a total time of 4.0 seconds.

Given:

The function is:

[tex]f(x,y)=x^{10}-3xy^2[/tex]

To find:

The value of [tex]f_x[/tex].

Solution:

We need to find the value of [tex]f_x[/tex]. So, we have to find the first order partial derivative of the given function with respect to x.

We have,

[tex]f(x,y)=x^{10}-3xy^2[/tex]

Differentiate partially with respect to x.

[tex]f(x,y)=\dfrac{\partial}{\partial x}x^{10}-3y^2\dfrac{\partial}{\partial x}x[/tex]

[tex]f_x=10x^{10-1}-3y^2(1)[/tex]

[tex]f_x=10x^{9}-3y^2[/tex]

Therefore, the correct option is A.

probability[Number of 6 random sample do not have cavities] = 0.8

Step-by-step explanation

Given:

Number of student do not have cavities = 60%

Number of random sample = 9 children

Find:

Probability[Number of 6 random sample do not have cavities]

Computation:

n = 9

p = 60% = 0.6

P(At least 6)  

Probability[Number of 6 random sample do not have cavities] = 1 - P(Less than 6)  

Probability[Number of 6 random sample do not have cavities] = 1 - P(Less than or equal to 6)

Probability[Number of 6 random sample do not have cavities] = 0.8

Given:

Net income = $19,090

Assets at the beginning of the year = $209,000.

Assets at the end of the year total = $264,000.

To find:

The return on assets.

Solution:

Formula used:

[tex]\text{Return of assets}=\dfrac{\text{Net income}}{\text{Average of assets at the beginning and at the end}}[/tex]

Using the above formula, we get

[tex]\text{Return of assets}=\dfrac{19090}{\dfrac{20900+264000}{2}}[/tex]

[tex]\text{Return of assets}=\dfrac{19090}{\dfrac{473000}{2}}[/tex]

[tex]\text{Return of assets}=\dfrac{19090}{236500}[/tex]

[tex]\text{Return of assets}\approx 0.0807[/tex]

The percentage form of 0.0807 is 8.07%.

Therefore, the return on assets is 8.07%.
