In a nationwide survey conducted by a reputable research center, a sample of adults in a certain country were asked whether they favor a plan to break up a small collection of megabanks, which controlled about % of the banking industry; % of those sampled responded in the affirmative. According to the report, "the margin of sampling error is / percentage points with a % level of confidence." Find and interpret a % confidence interval for the percentage of all adults in the country who favor a plan to break up the megabanks.
Answer:
(42% ; 48%)
We are 99% confident that the percentage of all adults in the country who favor a plan to break up the megabanks is between 42% and 48%
Step-by-step explanation:
The confidence interval is used to estimate the range of values for which the population value may lie at a certain level of confidence.
Given that :
Phat = 45%
Margin of error = ±3%
The confidence interval is defined as :
C. I = Phat ± margin of error
C. I = 45% ± 3%
Lower boundary :
45% - 3% = 42%
Upper boundary :
45% + 3% = 48%
C.I = (42% ; 48%)
We are 99% confident that the percentage of all adults in the country who favor a plan to break up the megabanks is between 42% and 48%
A shop sells a particular of video recorder. Assuming that the weekly demand for the video recorder is a Poisson variable with the mean 3, find the probability that the shop sells. . (a) At least 3 in a week. (b) At most 7 in a week. (c) More than 20 in a month (4 weeks).
Answer:
a) 0.5768 = 57.68% probability that the shop sells at least 3 in a week.
b) 0.988 = 98.8% probability that the shop sells at most 7 in a week.
c) 0.0104 = 1.04% probability that the shop sells more than 20 in a month.
Step-by-step explanation:
For questions a and b, the Poisson distribution is used, while for question c, the normal approximation is used.
Poisson distribution:
In a Poisson distribution, the probability that X represents the number of successes of a random variable is given by the following formula:
[tex]P(X = x) = \frac{e^{-\lambda}*\lambda^{x}}{(x)!}[/tex]
In which
x is the number of successes
e = 2.71828 is the Euler number
[tex]\lambda[/tex] is the mean in the given interval.
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.
The Poisson distribution can be approximated to the normal with [tex]\mu = \lambda, \sigma = \sqrt{\lambda}[/tex], if [tex]\lambda>10[/tex].
Poisson variable with the mean 3
This means that [tex]\lambda= 3[/tex].
(a) At least 3 in a week.
This is [tex]P(X \geq 3)[/tex]. So
[tex]P(X \geq 3) = 1 - P(X < 3)[/tex]
In which:
[tex]P(X < 3) = P(X = 0) + P(X = 1) + P(X = 2)[/tex]
Then
[tex]P(X = x) = \frac{e^{-\lambda}*\lambda^{x}}{(x)!}[/tex]
[tex]P(X = 0) = \frac{e^{-3}*3^{0}}{(0)!} = 0.0498[/tex]
[tex]P(X = 1) = \frac{e^{-3}*3^{1}}{(1)!} = 0.1494[/tex]
[tex]P(X = 2) = \frac{e^{-3}*3^{2}}{(2)!} = 0.2240[/tex]
So
[tex]P(X < 3) = P(X = 0) + P(X = 1) + P(X = 2) = 0.0498 + 0.1494 + 0.2240 = 0.4232[/tex]
[tex]P(X < 3) = P(X = 0) + P(X = 1) + P(X = 2) = 1 - 0.4232 = 0.5768[/tex]
0.5768 = 57.68% probability that the shop sells at least 3 in a week.
(b) At most 7 in a week.
This is:
[tex]P(X \leq 7) = P(X = 0) + P(X = 1) + P(X = 2) + P(X = 3) + P(X = 4) + P(X = 5) + P(X = 6) + P(X = 7)[/tex]
In which
[tex]P(X = x) = \frac{e^{-\lambda}*\lambda^{x}}{(x)!}[/tex]
[tex]P(X = 0) = \frac{e^{-3}*3^{0}}{(0)!} = 0.0498[/tex]
[tex]P(X = 1) = \frac{e^{-3}*3^{1}}{(1)!} = 0.1494[/tex]
[tex]P(X = 2) = \frac{e^{-3}*3^{2}}{(2)!} = 0.2240[/tex]
[tex]P(X = 3) = \frac{e^{-3}*3^{3}}{(3)!} = 0.2240[/tex]
[tex]P(X = 4) = \frac{e^{-3}*3^{4}}{(4)!} = 0.1680[/tex]
[tex]P(X = 5) = \frac{e^{-3}*3^{5}}{(5)!} = 0.1008[/tex]
[tex]P(X = 6) = \frac{e^{-3}*3^{6}}{(6)!} = 0.0504[/tex]
[tex]P(X = 7) = \frac{e^{-3}*3^{7}}{(7)!} = 0.0216[/tex]
Then
[tex]P(X \leq 7) = P(X = 0) + P(X = 1) + P(X = 2) + P(X = 3) + P(X = 4) + P(X = 5) + P(X = 6) + P(X = 7) = 0.0498 + 0.1494 + 0.2240 + 0.2240 + 0.1680 + 0.1008 + 0.0504 + 0.0216 = 0.988[/tex]
0.988 = 98.8% probability that the shop sells at most 7 in a week.
(c) More than 20 in a month (4 weeks).
4 weeks, so:
[tex]\mu = \lambda = 4(3) = 12[/tex]
[tex]\sigma = \sqrt{\lambda} = \sqrt{12}[/tex]
The probability, using continuity correction, is P(X > 20 + 0.5) = P(X > 20.5), which is 1 subtracted by the p-value of Z when X = 20.5.
[tex]Z = \frac{X - \mu}{\sigma}[/tex]
[tex]Z = \frac{20 - 12}{\sqrt{12}}[/tex]
[tex]Z = 2.31[/tex]
[tex]Z = 2.31[/tex] has a p-value of 0.9896.
1 - 0.9896 = 0.0104
0.0104 = 1.04% probability that the shop sells more than 20 in a month.
The probability of the selling the video recorders for considered cases are:
P(At least 3 in a week) = 0.5768 approximately.P(At most 7 in a week) = 0.9881 approximately.P( more than 20 in a month) = 0.0839 approximately.What are some of the properties of Poisson distribution?Let X ~ Pois(λ)
Then we have:
E(X) = λ = Var(X)
Since standard deviation is square root (positive) of variance,
Thus,
Standard deviation of X = [tex]\sqrt{\lambda}[/tex]
Its probability function is given by
f(k; λ) = Pr(X = k) = [tex]\dfrac{\lambda^{k}e^{-\lambda}}{k!}[/tex]
For this case, let we have:
X = the number of weekly demand of video recorder for the considered shop.
Then, by the given data, we have:
X ~ Pois(λ=3)
Evaluating each event's probability:
Case 1: At least 3 in a week.
[tex]P(X > 3) = 1- P(X \leq 2) = \sum_{i=0}^{2}P(X=i) = \sum_{i=0}^{2} \dfrac{3^ie^{-3}}{i!}\\\\P(X > 3) = 1 - e^{-3} \times \left( 1 + 3 + 9/2\right) \approx 1 - 0.4232 = 0.5768[/tex]
Case 2: At most 7 in a week.
[tex]P(X \leq 7) = \sum_{i=0}^{7}P(X=i) = \sum_{i=0}^{7} \dfrac{3^ie^{-3}}{i!}\\\\P(X \leq 7) = e^{-3} \times \left( 1 + 3 + 9/2 + 27/6 + 81/24 + 243/120 + 729/720 + 2187/5040\right)\\\\P(X \leq 7) \approx 0.9881[/tex]
Case 3: More than 20 in a month(4 weeks)
That means more than 5 in a week on average.
[tex]P(X > 5) = 1- P(X \leq 5) =\sum_{i=0}^{5}P(X=i) = \sum_{i=0}^{5} \dfrac{3^ie^{-3}}{i!}\\\\P(X > 5) = 1- e^{-3}( 1 + 3 + 9/2 + 27/6 + 81/24 + 243/120)\\\\P(X > 5) \approx 1 - 0.9161 \\ P(X > 5) \approx 0.0839[/tex]
Thus, the probability of the selling the video recorders for considered cases are:

A ball is thrown from an initial height of
1 meter with an initial upward velocity of
1 m/s. The ball's height h

seconds is given by the following. h=1+30t-5t^2
Find all values of t
for which the ball's height is 11
meters.
Round your answer(s) to the nearest hundredth.
Answer:
Step-by-step explanation:
If we are looking for the times that the ball was 11 meters off the ground, we sub in 11 for the height on the left and solve for t:
[tex]11=-5t^2+30t+1[/tex] and
[tex]0=-5t^2+30t-10[/tex] and factor this however it is you are factoring in class to solve for t to get
t = .35 seconds and t = 5.6 seconds
Because the ball reaches this point in its way up and then passes it again on its way down, the ball will have 2 times at this height.

Answer: A
Step-by-step explanation: x=-2, y=3, z=-3
Answer:
A. -2, 3, -3
Step-by-step explanation:
x = 7 - 2y + z
y = 21 + 6x + 2z = 21 + 6×(7 - 2y + z) + 2z =
= 21 + 42 - 12y + 6z + 2z = 63 - 12y + 8z
13y = 63 + 8z
y = (63 + 8z)/13
2x + 2y - 3z = 11
2×(7 - 2y + z) + 2×(63 + 8z)/13 - 3z = 11
2×(7 - 2×(63 + 8z)/13 + z) + 2×(63 + 8z)/13 - 3z = 11
14 - 4×(63 + 8z)/13 + 2z + 2×(63 + 8z)/13 - 3z = 11
-2×(63 + 8z)/13 - z = -3
-2×(63 + 8z) - 13z = -39
-126 - 16z - 13z = -39
-29z = 87
z = -3
y = (63 + 8×-3)/13 = (63 - 24)/13 = 39/13 = 3

Step-by-step explanation:
a)
[tex]2\sin(x) +\sqrt{3} =0 \implies 2\sin(x)=-\sqrt{3} \implies \boxed{\sin(x)=-\dfrac{\sqrt{3}}{2} }[/tex]
[tex]\therefore x=\dfrac{4\pi }{3}[/tex]
But note, as sine does represent the [tex]y[/tex] value, [tex]\dfrac{5\pi }{3}[/tex] is also solution
Therefore,
[tex]x=\dfrac{4\pi }{3} \text{ and } x=\dfrac{5\pi }{3}[/tex]
This is the solution for [tex]x\in[0, 2\pi ][/tex], recall the unit circle.
Note: [tex]\sin(x)=-\dfrac{\sqrt{3}}{2} \implies \sin(x)=\sin \left(\pi +\dfrac{\pi }{3} \right)[/tex]
b)
[tex]\sqrt{3} \tan(x) + 1 =0 \implies \tan(x) = -\dfrac{1}{\sqrt{3} } \implies \boxed{ \tan(x) = -\dfrac{\sqrt{3} }{3} }[/tex]
Once
[tex]\tan(x) = -\dfrac{\sqrt{3} }{3} \implies \sin(x) = -\dfrac{1}{2} \text{ and } \cos(x) = \dfrac{\sqrt{3} }{2}[/tex]
As [tex]\tan(x) = \dfrac{\sin(x)}{\cos(x)}[/tex]
[tex]\therefore x=-\dfrac{\pi }{6}[/tex]
c)
[tex]4\sin^2(x) - 1 = 0 \implies \sin^2(x) = \dfrac{1}{4} \implies \boxed{\sin(x) = \pm \dfrac{\sqrt{1} }{\sqrt{4} } = \pm \dfrac{1}{2}}[/tex]
Therefore,
[tex]\sin(x)=\dfrac{1}{2} \implies x=\dfrac{\pi }{6} \text{ and } x=\dfrac{5\pi }{6}[/tex]
[tex]\sin(x)=-\dfrac{1}{2} \implies x=\dfrac{7\pi }{6} \text{ and } x=\dfrac{11\pi }{6}[/tex]
The solutions are
[tex]x=\dfrac{\pi }{6} \text{ and } x=\dfrac{5\pi }{6} \text{ and }x=\dfrac{7\pi }{6} \text{ and } x=\dfrac{11\pi }{6}[/tex]

Step-by-step explanation:
tickets ( 2 at 10.95 each) = 2* 10.95 = 21.90
popcorn ( 1 at 7.50) = 7.50
Total cost before discount
21.90+7.50=29.40
subtract the discount
29.40-4.00 =25.40
Answer:
Yep! That's correct!
Step-by-step explanation:
We know that Marilyn and her sister are each getting a ticket that cost $10.95. They are also getting a $7.50 popcorn to share. Let's add those values up.
(10.95 * 2) + 7.50 {Multiply 10.95 by 2 to get 21.90.}
21.90 + 7.50 {Add 7.50 to 21.90 to get 29.40}
$29.40 (without the credit) in toal
A credit on a movie reward card functions as a discount, so what we need to do next is subtract 4 from 29.40. That will get us $25.40 as the total cost.
