In December 2004, a report based on the National Survey on Drug Use and Health estimated that 20% of all Americans aged 16 to 20 drove under the influence of drugs or alcohol in the previous year. We would like to update this information by calculating a 98% confidence interval. How large a sample is necessary in order for the bound on the error of estimation to be 0.04?

Answers

Answer 1

Answer:

542

Step-by-step explanation:

We are required to find the sample size at 98% confidence interval in this question

E = 0.04

P* = 20% = 0.20

n = p* x (1-p)(Zα/2÷E)²

α = 1 - 0.98

= 0.02

To get Critical value

= 0.02/2 = 0.01

The critical value at 0.01 is 2.33

Inserting values into formula:

O.2 x 0.8(2.33/0.04)²

= 0.8 x 0.2 x 58.25²

= 542.89

The value of n must be an integer therefore the answer is 542.

Complete each ordered pair so that it is a solution of the given linear equation.

x - 4y = 4; (_,3), (4,_)

Answers

Answer: (16,3)  and (4,0)

Step-by-step explanation:

Using the equation x-4y=4  is asking what is the value of x if the value of y is 3. So plot it into the equation and solve for x.

x-4(3)=4  multiply the left side

x - 12 = 4   add  12 to both sides

x= 16

You will now have the coordinates (16,3)  

In the second pair it gives the x coordinate which is 4 but we need to solve for y.  

4 - 4y=4  subtract 4 from both sides

-4        -4

 -4y = 0  Divide both sides by 4

    y = 0

The ordered pair will be (4,0)

Commute times in the U.S. are heavily skewed to the right. We select a random sample of 45 people from the 2000 U.S. Census who reported a non-zero commute time. In this sample the mean commute time is 25.2 minutes with a standard deviation of 19.1 minutes. Required:a. Can we conclude from this data that the mean commute time in the U.S. is less than half an hour?b. Conduct a hypothesis test at the 5% level of significance. c. What is the p-value for this hypothesis test?

Answers

Answer:

The mean commute time in the U.S. is less than half an hour.

Step-by-step explanation:

In this case we need to test whether the mean commute time in the U.S. is less than half an hour.

The information provided is:

 [tex]n=45\\\bar x=25.5\\s=19.1\\\alpha =0.05[/tex]

(a)

The hypothesis for the test can be defined as follows:

H₀: The mean commute time in the U.S. is not less than half an hour, i.e. μ ≥ 30.

Hₐ: The mean commute time in the U.S. is less than half an hour, i.e. μ < 30.

(b)

As the population standard deviation is not known we will use a t-test for single mean.

Compute the test statistic value as follows:

 [tex]t=\frac{\bar x-\mu}{s/\sqrt{n}}=\frac{25.2-30}{19.1/\sqrt{45}}=-1.58[/tex]

Thus, the test statistic value is -1.58.

(c)

Compute the p-value of the test as follows:

[tex]p-value=P(t_{(n-1)}<-1.58)=P(t_{(45-1)}<-1.58)=0.061[/tex]  

*Use a t-table.

The p-value of the test is 0.061.

Decision rule:

If the p-value of the test is less than the significance level then the null hypothesis will be rejected and vice-versa.

p-value = 0.061> α = 0.05

The null hypothesis will not be rejected at 5% level of significance.

Thus, concluding that the mean commute time in the U.S. is less than half an hour.

A lottery exists where balls numbered 1 to "20" are placed in an urn. To​ win, you must match the balls chosen in the correct order. How many possible outcomes are there for this​ game?

Answers

Answer: 1860480

Step-by-step explanation:

Initially, there are 20 balls where 5 must be chosen in order.

The number of possible outcomes may be calculated using the concept of permutations.

The formula for permutations is:

nPr =n!/(n−r)!

where n represents the number of items and r represents the number of items to be selected.

The number of ways of selecting 5 balls in order out of 20 is:

20P5 = 20!/15!

= 1860480

To conclude, there are 1860480 possible outcomes.

Next, the students at the Pearson Cooking Academy are assigned a take-home written exam to assess their knowledge of all things culinary. Historically, students scores on this exam had a N(68, 36) distribution. However, these days, there is an company called Charred Egg that offers to help students on tasks whether or not the exercises are for homework or for exams. In a cohort of 19 students, what is the probability that their average score will be at least 70?

Answers

Answer:

The probability is  [tex]P( \= X \ge 70 ) = 0.07311[/tex]

Step-by-step explanation:

From the question we are told that

    The  population mean is  [tex]\mu = 68[/tex]

      The standard deviation is  [tex]\sigma = \sqrt{36} = 6[/tex]

      The  sample size is  [tex]n = 19[/tex]

     

Generally the standard error of the mean is mathematically represented as  

            [tex]\sigma_{\= x } = \frac{\sigma }{\sqrt{n} }[/tex]

=>         [tex]\sigma_{\= x } = \frac{6 }{\sqrt{19} }[/tex]

=>         [tex]\sigma_{\= x } = 1.3765[/tex]

Generally the probability that their average score will be at least 70 is mathematically represented as

            [tex]P( \= X \ge 70 ) = 1 - P( \= X < 70 ) = 1 - P(\frac{ \= X - \mu }{\sigma_{\= x}} < \frac{70 - 68}{ 1.3765} )[/tex]

Generally [tex]\frac{ \= X - \mu }{\sigma_{\= x}} = z(The \ z-score \ of \ \= X )[/tex]

So

          [tex]P( \= X \ge 70 ) = 1 - P( \= X < 70 ) = 1 - P(Z <1.453 )[/tex]

From the z-table

            [tex]P(Z <1.453 ) = 0.92689[/tex]

=>          [tex]P( \= X \ge 70 ) = 1 - P( \= X < 70 ) = 1 - 0.92689[/tex]

=>         [tex]P( \= X \ge 70 ) = 1 - P( \= X < 70 ) = 0.07311[/tex]

=>          [tex]P( \= X \ge 70 ) = 0.07311[/tex]

                 

 

An evergreen nursery usually sells a certain shrub after 9 years of growth and shaping. The growth rate during those 9 years is approximated by

(a) Find the height after t years.
h(t) =
(b) How tall are the shrubs when they are sold?
cm

Answers

Answer:

(a) After t years, the height is

18t² + 3t + 10

(b) The shrubs are847 cm tall when they are sold.

Step-by-step explanation:

Given growth rate

dh/dt = 1.8t + 3

dh = (18t + 3)dt

Integrating this, we have

h = 18t² + 3t + C

When t = 0, h = 10cm

Then

10 = C

So

(a) h = 18t² + 3t + 10

(b) Because they are sold after every 9 years, then at t = 9

h = 18(9)² + 3(9) + 10

= 810 + 27 + 10

= 847 cm

Can someone explain to me what a “derivative” means? How do you find the derivative of f(x)=x^3+1?

Answers

The derivative is the rate of change of a function, basically represents the slope at different points. To find the derivative of the given function you can use the power rule, which means, if n is a real number, d/dx(x^n)= nx^(n-1). This is a simplification of the chain rule based on the fact that d/dx(x)=1. Anyway, this means that d/dx(x^3 + 1)= 3x^2. Here n is 3 and so it is 3*x^(3-1)= 3x^2. The derivative of x^3+1 is 3x^2.

If you are wondering what happened to the 1, for any constant C, d/dx(C)=0.

Let one of those even numbers be x, Then other even number would be x + 2.

According to question,

⇛ Their reciprocal add upto 3/4

So, we can write it as,

⇛ 1/x + 1/x + 2 = 3/4

⇛ x + 2 + x / x(x + 2) = 3/4

⇛ 2x + 2 / x² + 2x = 3/4

Cross multiplying,

⇛ 3(x² + 2x) = 4(2x + 2)

⇛ 3x² + 6x = 8x + 8

⇛ 3x² - 2x - 8 = 0

⇛ 3x² - 6x + 4x - 8 = 0

⇛ 3x(x - 2) + 4(x - 2) = 0

⇛ (3x + 4)(x - 2) = 0

Then, x = -4/3 or 2

☃️ It can't be -4/3 because it is fraction and negative number. So, x = 2

Then, x + 2 = 4

A cardboard box without a lid is to be made with a volume of 4 ft 3 . Find the dimensions of the box that requires the least amount of cardboard.

Answers

Answer:

2ft by 2ft by 1 ft

Step-by-step explanation:

Total surface of the cardboard box is expressed as S = 2LW + 2WH + 2LH where L is the length of the box, W is the width and H is the height of the box. Since the cardboard box is without a lid, then the total surface area will be expressed as;

S  = lw+2wh+2lh ... 1

Given the volume V = lwh = 4ft³ ... 2

From equation 2;

h = 4/lw

Substituting into r[equation 1;

S = lw + 2w(4/lw)+ 2l(4/lw)

S = lw+8/l+8/w

Differentiating the resulting equation with respect to w and l will give;

dS/dw = l + (-8w⁻²)

dS/dw = l - 8/w²

Similarly,

dS/dl = w  + (-8l⁻²)

dS/dw = w - 8/l²

At turning point, ds/dw = 0 and ds/dl = 0

l - 8/w² = 0 and w - 8/l² = 0

l = 8/w²  and w =8/l²

l = 8/(8/l² )²

l = 8/(64/I⁴)

l = 8*l⁴/64

l = l⁴/8

8l = l⁴

l³ = 8

l = ∛8

l = 2

Hence the length of the box is 2 feet

Substituting l = 2 into the function l = 8/w² to get the eidth w

2 = 8/w²

1 = 4/w²

w² = 4

w = 2 ft

width of the cardboard is 2 ft

Since Volume = lwh

4 = 2(2)h

4 = 4h

h = 1 ft

Height of the cardboard is 1 ft

The dimensions of the box that requires the least amount of cardboard is 2ft by 2ft by 1 ft

Answers

Answer:

The sequence is 14, 19, 24, 29, 34, 39.

Step-by-step explanation:

Let's call the common difference (the difference between two consecutive terms) as d. We see that the second term is 19 and the 5th term is 34 and since 5 - 2 = 3, we add d 3 times to 19 to get 34 so therefore:

19 + 3d = 34

3d = 15

d = 5 so the first term is 19 - 5 = 14, the third would be 19 + 5 = 24, the fourth would be 24 + 5 = 29 and the sixth would be 34 + 5 = 39.

20 POINTS! You are planning to use a ceramic tile design in your new bathroom. The tiles are equilateral triangles. You decide to arrange the tiles in a hexagonal shape as shown. If the side of each tile measures 9 centimeters, what will be the exact area of each hexagonal shape?

Answers

Answer:

210.33 cm^2

Step-by-step explanation:

We know that 6 equilateral triangles makes one hexagon.

Also, an equilateral triangle has all its sides equal.

If the tile of each side of the triangular tile measure 9 cm, then the height of the triangular tiles can be gotten using Pythagoras's Theorem.

The triangle formed by each tile can be split along its height, into two right angle triangles with base (adjacent) 4.5 cm and slant side (hypotenuse) of 9 cm. The height  (opposite) is calculated as,

From Pythagoras's theorem,

[tex]hyp^{2} = adj^{2} + opp^{2}[/tex]

substituting, we have

[tex]9^{2} = 4.5^{2} + opp^{2}[/tex]

81 = 20.25 + [tex]opp^{2}[/tex]

[tex]opp^{2}[/tex] = 81 - 20.25 = 60.75

opp = [tex]\sqrt{60.75}[/tex] = 7.79 cm  this is the height of the right angle triangle, and also the height of the equilateral triangular tiles.

The area of a triangle = [tex]\frac{1}{2} bh[/tex]

where b is the base = 9 cm

h is the height = 7.79 cm

substituting, we have

area = [tex]\frac{1}{2}[/tex] x 9 x 7.79 = 35.055 cm^2

Area of the hexagon that will be formed = 6 x area of the triangular tiles

==> 6 x 35.055 cm^2 = 210.33 cm^2

Aiko and Kendra arrive at the Texas
State Fair with $60. What is the total
number of rides they can go on if
they each pay the entrance fee of
$17 and rides cost $3 each?

Answers

Answer:

They can go on 14 rides the maximum.

Step-by-step explanation:

First, you have to set up the equation. Basically, Aiko and Kendra only carry $60 with them. They cannot go over that limit. Furthermore, the entrance free is $17. Each ride is $3.

(x = the amount of rides)

17 + 3x ≤ 60

17 represents the entrance fee which only has to be paid one time. 3x represents the cost of each ride (x equals to the amount of rides).

Now you solve.

Isolate the variable, which is 3x.

3x ≤ 60 - 17

3x ≤ 43

Now, divide 43 by 3 to find the value of x.

x ≤ 43 ÷ 3

x ≤ 14.3333333333

They can go on a max of 14 rides. Anymore, and they will go over budget. Normally, with problems like this one, if you have a decimal, you should round down unless your instructor says otherwise.

After all, who would you be able to go on a third of a ride? It isn't possible, so generally, they just have you round down.

A certain dataset of systolic blood pressure measurements has a mean of 80 and a standard deviation of 3. Assuming the distribution is bell-shaped and we randomly select a measurement:
a) What percentage of measurements are between 71 and 89?
b) What is the probability a person's blood systolic pressure measures more than 89?
c) What is the probability a person's blood systolic pressure being at most 75?
d) We should expect 15% of patients have a blood pressure below what measurement?
e) Would it be unusual for 3 patients to have a mean blood pressure measurement of more than 84? Explain.

Answer:

Explained below.

Step-by-step explanation:

Let X = systolic blood pressure measurements.

It is provided that, [tex]X\sim N(\mu=80,\sigma^{2}=3^{2})[/tex].

(a)

Compute the percentage of measurements that are between 71 and 89 as follows:

[tex]P(71<X<89)=P(\frac{71-80}{3}<\frac{X-\mu}{\sigma}<\frac{89-80}{3})[/tex]

                        [tex]=P(-3<Z<3)\\=P(Z<3)-P(Z<-3)\\=0.99865-0.00135\\=0.9973[/tex]

The percentage is, 0.9973 × 100 = 99.73%.

Thus, the percentage of measurements that are between 71 and 89 is 99.73%.

(b)

Compute the probability that a person's blood systolic pressure measures more than 89 as follows:

[tex]P(X>89)=P(\frac{X-\mu}{\sigma}>\frac{89-80}{3})[/tex]

                [tex]=P(Z>3)\\=1-P(Z<3)\\=1-0.99865\\=0.00135\\\approx 0.0014[/tex]

Thus, the probability that a person's blood systolic pressure measures more than 89 is 0.0014.

(c)

Compute the probability that a person's blood systolic pressure being at most 75 as follows:

Apply continuity correction:

[tex]P(X\leq 75)=P(X<75-0.5)[/tex]

                [tex]=P(X<74.5)\\\\=P(\frac{X-\mu}{\sigma}<\frac{74.5-80}{3})\\\\=P(Z<-1.83)\\\\=0.03362\\\\\approx 0.034[/tex]

Thus, the probability that a person's blood systolic pressure being at most 75 is 0.034.

(d)

Let x be the blood pressure required.

Then,

P (X < x) = 0.15

⇒ P (Z < z) = 0.15

z = -1.04

Compute the value of x as follows:

[tex]z=\frac{x-\mu}{\sigma}\\\\-1.04=\frac{x-80}{3}\\\\x=80-(1.04\times3)\\\\x=76.88\\\\x\approx 76.9[/tex]

Thus, the 15% of patients are expected to have a blood pressure below 76.9.

(e)

A z-score more than 2 or less than -2 are considered as unusual.

Compute the z score for [tex]\bar x[/tex] as follows:

[tex]z=\frac{\bar x-\mu}{\sigma/\sqrt{n}}[/tex]

  [tex]=\frac{84-80}{3/\sqrt{3}}\\\\=2.31[/tex]

The z-score for the mean blood pressure measurement of 3 patients is more than 2.

Thus, it would be unusual.
