One way of checking the effect of undercoverage, nonresponse, and other sources of error in a sample survey is to compare the sample with known facts about the population. About 12% of American adults identify themselves as black. Suppose we take an SRS of 1500 American adults and let X be the number of blacks in the sample. Use a Normal distribution to estimate the probability that the sample will contain between 165 and 195 blacks.

Answers

Answer 1

Solution :

Given :

p = 12% = 0.12

n = 15..

Mean is defined as the product of a sample size n and the probability p such that :

[tex]$\mu_X = np = 1500 \times 0.12$[/tex]

             = 180

Standard deviation may be defined as the square of a product of the sample size n, the probability p and the probability 1-p :

[tex]$\sigma_X = \sqrt{np(1-p)}$[/tex]

[tex]$\sigma_X = \sqrt{1500 \times 0.12 \times (1-0.12)}$[/tex]

     ≈  12.5857

The z-score is given by :

[tex]$z=\frac {x- \mu}{\sigma } $[/tex]

[tex]$z=\frac {165-180} {12.5857 }$[/tex]

 ≈  -1.19  

[tex]$z=\frac {x- \mu}{\sigma } $[/tex]

[tex]$z=\frac{195-180} {12.5857 }$[/tex]

 ≈  1.19  

Now determining the corresponding probability using table  :

P (165 ≤ X ≤ 195 ) = P (-1.19 ≤ Z ≤ 1.19 )

                            = 1-2 x P(Z < -1.19)

                            = 1-2 x 0.1170

                            = 1-0.2340

                            = 0.7660

                             = 76.60%

Answer 2
"76.06%" would be the probability that the sample will contain between 165 as well as 195 blacks.

Given values,

p = 12%

           = 0.12

n = 1500

The mean will be

→ [tex]\mu x = np[/tex]

By putting the values,

       [tex]= 1500\times 0.12[/tex]

       [tex]= 180[/tex]

The standard deviation will be:

→ [tex]\sigma x = \sqrt{np(1-p)}[/tex]

       [tex]= \sqrt{1500\times 0.12\times (1-0.12)}[/tex]

       [tex]= 12.5857[/tex]

The z-score will be:

→ [tex]z = \frac{x- \mu}{\sigma}[/tex]

     [tex]= \frac{165-180}{12.5857}[/tex]

     [tex]= -1.19[/tex]

and,

→ [tex]z = \frac{195-180}{12.5857}[/tex]

     [tex]= 1.19[/tex]

hence,

The probability will be:

→ [tex]P(165 \leq X \leq 195) = P(-1.19 \leq Z \leq 1.19)[/tex]

                                [tex]= 1-2\times P(Z < -1.19)[/tex]

                                [tex]= 1-2\times 0.1170[/tex]

                                [tex]= 1-0.2340[/tex]

                                [tex]= 0.7660[/tex]

                                [tex]= 76.60[/tex] (%)

Thus the answer above is right.

A vehicle purchased for $29,800 depreciates at a constant rate of 4%. Determine the approximate value of
the vehicle 10 years after purchase. Round to the nearest whole dollar.

Answers

Answer:

$44104

Step-by-step explanation:

Given data

Cost = $29800

Rate= 4%

Time= 10years

Applying the formula below, we can find the cost after 10 years as

A=P(1+r)^t

A= 29800(1+0.04)^10

A=29800(1.04)^10

A=29800*1.480

A=$44104

Hence the new cost is $44104

Answer:

[tex] y = \frac{1}{4}x + 1 [/tex]

Step-by-step explanation:

Line is passing through the points (0, 1) & (4, 2)

Slope of line = (2 - 1)/(4 - 0) = 1/4

y-intercept (b) = 1

Equation of line in slope-intercept form is given as:

[tex]y = mx + b \\ \\ y = \frac{1}{4}x + 1 [/tex]

Answer:

[tex]y = \frac{1}{4}x + 1[/tex]

Step-by-step explanation:

Slope intercept form allows one to write an equation for a line from only the y-intercept and the slope, so we need to identify those two things.

The slope is simply [tex]\frac{y_2 - y_1}{x_2-x_1}[/tex]=>[tex]\frac{2-1}{4-0}[/tex]=> 1/4

The slope intercept is the y value when x = 0, and since we have the point (0,1), the y-intercept must be 1

The equation is: y = mx + b where m is the slope and b is the intercept so the final equation is:

[tex]y = \frac{1}{4}x + 1[/tex]

  1. attendance (y), time (x)

  2. 1,2: increasing; 3: constant; 4: decreasing

  3. attendance increases, remains constant, then decreases

  4. increasing; pre-heating the oven

Step-by-step explanation:

It is always difficult to read the mind of the author of questions like these. Usually, specific wording is expected. If your curriculum material has examples you can copy from, you should do that.

__

1. The variables and what they stand for are listed on the axes of the graph. The y-variable stands for attendance. The x-variable stands for time. It isn't clear whether the desired answer is "y and x" or "attendance and time".

__

2. The graph slopes upward in intervals 1 and 2. It can be described as "increasing."

The graph remains level in interval 3. It can be described as "constant."

The graph slopes downward in interval 4. It can be described as "decreasing."

__

3. The attendance is adequately described in question 2. Attendance increases, remains constant, then decreases. It isn't clear how general or specific the answer is supposed to be.

__

4. The graph of the function is "increasing." We don't know if the indicated temperature is the temperature of the bread, the oven, or the room containing the oven. If we assume the indicated temperature is that of the oven, we expect an increase during the oven pre-heat interval.

If the indicated temperature is that of the bread, then the increase would be following insertion of the bread into the oven.

Second term of a geometric series is , the limiting sum is 9.
Get the values of first term a and common ratio r.

Answers

Answer:

The answer is below

Step-by-step explanation:

Second term of a geometric series is 2, the limiting sum is 9.

Get the values of first term a and common ratio r.

Solution:

A geometric series is in the form:

a + ar + ar² + ar³ + . . . + arⁿ ⁻ ¹

Where a is the first term, n is the nth term and r is the second ratio.

Since the second term of the series is 2, hence:

ar⁽² ⁻ ¹⁾ = 2

ar = 2        (1)

Also, the limiting sum is 9, hence:

a/ (1 - r) = 9

a = 9 - 9r     (2)

Substitute a = 9 - 9r in eqn 1:

(9 - 9r)r = 2

9r - 9r² = 2

9r² - 9r + 2 = 0

9r² - 6r - 3r + 2 = 0

3r(3r - 2) -1(3r - 2) = 0

(3r - 1)(3r - 2) = 0

r = 1/3 or r = 2/3

When r = 1/3; a = 9 - 9r = 9 - 9(1/3) = 6

When r = 2/3; a = 9 - 9r = 9 - 9(2/3) =  3

Sheldon spent $42 on cookies. If each box cost $6, which equation will tell you how many boxes of cookies Sheldon bought?

Answers

Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:

Sheldon bought 7 boxes of cookies if he spent $42 on cookies.

What is ratio?

Ratio basically compares quantities, that means it shows the value of one quantity with respect to the other quantity.

If a and b are two values, their ratio will be a:b,

Given that,

Cost of one box of cookies = $6.

And total amount spent by Sheldon on cookies = $42.

Let Sheldon bough x boxes of cookies.

To find the number of boxes of cookies x,

Use ratio property,

Cost of one box of cookies = $6

Cost of x boxes of cookies = $6x

Total price = 42

6x = 42

x = 7

The required number of boxes of cookies is 7.

Can you there, any more than here, raise corn and wheat and oats without work? Will anybody there, any more than here, do your work for you? If you intend to go to work, there is no better place than right where you are; if you do not intend to go to work, you cannot get along anywhere. Squirming and crawling about from place to place can do no good. You have raised no crop this year; and what you really want is to sell the land, get the money, and spend it. Part with the land you have, and, my life upon it, you will never after own a spot big enough to bury you will get for the land you will spend in moving to Missouri, and the other half you will eat, drink, and wear out, and no foot of land will be bought. Now, I feel it my duty to have no hand in such a piece of foolery. I feel that it is so even on your own account, and particularly on mother's account. The eastern forty acres I intend to keep for mother while she lives; if you will not cultivate it, it will rent for enough to support herat least, it will rent for something. Her dower in the other two forties she can let you have, and no thanks to me. Now, do not misunderstand this letter; do not write it in any unkindness. I write it in order, if possible, to get you to face the truth, which truth is, you are destitute because you have idled away all your time. Your thousand pretences for not getting along better are all nonsense; they deceive nobody but yourself. Go to work is the only cure for your case. A word to mother.
