Historically, about ​53% of the population of a certain country believed that the​ planet's temperature was rising​ ("global warming"). A March 2010 poll wanted to determine whether this proportion had changed. The poll interviewed adults in the​ population, and said they believed that global warming was real.​ (Assume these adults represented a simple random​ sample.)

Required:
a. What percentage in the sample believed global warming was real in 2010?
b. Is this more or less than the historical 57%?

Answers

Answer 1

Answer:

(a) The proportion is 61.23%

(b) It is more than the historical 57%

Step-by-step explanation:

This question has missing details, and they are:

[tex]n = 926[/tex] ---- The Sample Adults

[tex]x = 567[/tex] -- Those that believe global warming was real

Solving (a): The proportion of those that believe.

This is calculated as:

[tex]p = \frac{x}{n}[/tex]

Substitute values for x and n

[tex]p = \frac{567}{926}[/tex]

[tex]p = 0.6123[/tex]

Express as percentage

[tex]p = 0.6123 * 100\%[/tex]

[tex]p = 61.23\%[/tex]

Solving (b) More or less than 57%

By comparison:

[tex]61.2\% > 57\%[/tex]

Hence, it is more than the historical 57%

Through extensive data collection, quality control experts have verified that the true mean weight of a wrapped Starburst candy is 5.1 grams, as advertised on the package. However, in a class activity where you selected and weighed 8 wrapped Starburst candies you obtained a p-value of 0.003 and concluded that the true mean weight of Starburst candies is not as advertised. What type of error was potentially made in this hypothesis test

Answers

Answer:

Type 1 error.

Step-by-step explanation:

H0 : μ = 5.1

H1 : μ ≠ 5.1

The Pvalue of the test = 0.003

Decision made by the researcher was conclude that mean weight is not as advertised, that is the researcher rejected the Null hypothesis.

However, when the Pvalue is < α - value , we reject the null ; The type of error the researcher could have made is that ; The mean weight may be truly as advertised, Hence, leading us to make a false positive error, thus is rejecting a true null. This is a TYPE 1 error.

a) Calculate SD =
b) Calculate a 99% two-sided confidence interval on the difference in mean life.
c) Which brand would you prefer? (brand 1/ no difference /brand 2)_____

Answers

Answer:

a) σ  =  4933,64

b) CI 99%  = ( - 5746  ;  7194 )

c) No difference in brands

Step-by-step explanation:

Brand 1:

n₁   =  8

x₁   = 38222

s₁   = 4974

Brand 2:

n₂  = 8

x₂  = 37498

s₂  = 4893

As n₁  =  n₂  = 8       Small sample  we work with t -student table

degree of freedom      df  = n₁  +  n₂  - 2    df = 8 +8 -2  df = 14

CI = 99 %   CI  =  0,99

From  t-student table we find   t(c)  = 2,624

CI  =   (  x₁  -  x₂ ) ±  t(c) * √σ²/n₁   +  σ²/n₂

σ² = [( n₁  -  1 ) *s₁² +  ( n₂  -  1  ) * s₂² ] / n₁ +n₂ -2

σ² = 7* (4974)² + 7*( 4893)² / 14

σ² = 24340783       σ  =  4933,64

√ σ²/n₁  +  σ²/n₂     =  √ 24340783/8   +  24340783/8

√ σ²/n₁  +  σ²/n₂     =  2466

CI 99%  =  (  x₁  -  x₂ ) ± 2,624* 2466

CI 99%  =   724  ± 6470

CI 99%  = ( - 5746  ;  7194 )

As we can see CI 99% contains 0 and that means that there is not statistical difference between mean life of the two groups

IF A FUNCTION f(x) is defined AS 5x^2-3x+3, what is the expression for

Answers

Answer: C. 10x-3

Step-by-step explanation: I got this question correct on Edmentum.

The value of the expression will be 10x – 3. Then the correct option is C.

What is the limit?

The value that approaches the output for the given input value. Limits are a very important tool in calculus.

The function is defined as,

f(x) = 5x² – 3x + 2

Then the value of the expression will be

[tex]\rightarrow \displaystyle \lim_{h \to 0} \dfrac{f(x+h)-f(x)}{h}[/tex]

Substitute the value of the function, then the value of the expression will be

[tex]\rightarrow \displaystyle \lim_{h \to 0} \dfrac{5(x+h)^2 - 3(x + h) + 3- 5x^2 + 3x - 3}{h}\\\\\\\rightarrow \displaystyle \lim_{h \to 0} \dfrac{5x^2 + 5h^2 + 10xh - 3x - 3h + 3- 5x^2 + 3x - 3}{h}\\\\\\\rightarrow \displaystyle \lim_{h \to 0} \dfrac{ 5h^2 + 10xh - 3h }{h}\\[/tex]

Simplify the equation further, then we have

[tex]\rightarrow \displaystyle \lim_{h \to 0} 5h + 10x - 3 \\[/tex]

Substitute the value of the h = 0, then the value of the expression will be

⇒ 5(0) + 10x – 3

⇒ 10x – 3

Then the correct option is C.

Answers

9514 1404 393

Answer:

  A)  3y = x + 16

Step-by-step explanation:

The equation of a perpendicular line can be found by swapping the x- and y-coefficients and negating one of them. The constant will be chosen to match the given point.

Swapping coefficients, we get ...

  -3y = x + c

Negating the y-coefficient gives ...

  3y = x + c

Filling in the given point, we have ...

  3(5) = -1 + c

  16 = c

The equation of the perpendicular line can be written as ...

  3y = x + 16 . . . . matches choice A

_____

Note that choice A is the only equation that gives a line with positive slope. The given equation has negative slope, so its perpendicular must have positive slope.

Center: (5, -13)

Answers

Answer:

(x - 5)² + (y + 13)² = 121

Step-by-step explanation:

The equation of a circle in standard form is

(x - h)² + (y - k)² = r²

where (h, k) are the coordinates of the centre and r is the radius

Here (h, k ) = (5, - 13 ) and r = 11 , then

(x - 5)² + (y - (- 13))² = 11² , that is

(x - 5)² + (y + 13)² = 121

100 Children

Step-by-step explanation:

Answer: 20 adults and 100 children

Step-by-step explanation:

a = adults, c = children

c = 5a

120 = a + 5a

120 = 6a

20 = a

20 times 5 is 100 so 100 children

Use the method of cylidrincal shells to find the volume of the solid generated by rotating the region bounded by the curves y=6x-2x^2 and y=x^2 about the y axis.

Answers

Find where the two curves intersect:

y = 6x - 2x ²

y = x ²

6x - 2x ² = x ²   →   3x ² - 6x = 3x (x - 2) = 0   →   x = 0 and x = 2

Now, for a shell of radius x units away from the axis of revolution, the height of the shell would be the vertical distance between the upper curve and the lower curve. For 0 ≤ x ≤ 2, we have 6x - x ² ≥ x ², so the height of any given shell is (6x - x ²) - x ² = 6x - 2x ².

Then volume of the solid is
