Answer:
(A) A 95% confidence for the population mean is [$332.16, $447.84] .
(B) If the confidence level in part (a) changed from 95% to 99%, then the margin of error for the confidence interval would increase.
(C) If the sample size in part (a) changed from 19 to 22, then the margin of error for the confidence interval would decrease.
(D) A 99% confidence interval for the proportion of students who purchase used textbooks is [0.363, 0.477] .
Step-by-step explanation:
We are given that 19 students are randomly selected the sample mean was $390 and the standard deviation was $120.
Firstly, the pivotal quantity for finding the confidence interval for the population mean is given by;
P.Q. = [tex]\frac{\bar X-\mu}{\frac{s}{\sqrt{n} } }[/tex] ~ [tex]t_n_-_1[/tex]
where, [tex]\bar X[/tex] = sample mean = $390
s = sample standard deviation = $120
n = sample of students = 19
[tex]\mu[/tex] = population mean
Here for constructing a 95% confidence interval we have used a One-sample t-test statistics because we don't know about population standard deviation.
So, 95% confidence interval for the population mean, [tex]\mu[/tex] is ;
P(-2.101 < [tex]t_1_8[/tex] < 2.101) = 0.95 {As the critical value of t at 18 degrees of
freedom are -2.101 & 2.101 with P = 2.5%}
P(-2.101 < [tex]\frac{\bar X-\mu}{\frac{s}{\sqrt{n} } }[/tex] < 2.101) = 0.95
P( [tex]-2.101 \times {\frac{s}{\sqrt{n} } }[/tex] < [tex]{\bar X-\mu}[/tex] < [tex]2.101 \times {\frac{s}{\sqrt{n} } }[/tex] ) = 0.95
P( [tex]\bar X-2.101 \times {\frac{s}{\sqrt{n} } }[/tex] < [tex]\mu[/tex] < [tex]\bar X+2.101 \times {\frac{s}{\sqrt{n} } }[/tex] ) = 0.95
95% confidence interval for [tex]\mu[/tex] = [ [tex]\bar X-2.101 \times {\frac{s}{\sqrt{n} } }[/tex] , [tex]\bar X+2.101 \times {\frac{s}{\sqrt{n} } }[/tex] ]
= [ [tex]\$390-2.101 \times {\frac{\$120}{\sqrt{19} } }[/tex] , [tex]\$390+2.101 \times {\frac{\$120}{\sqrt{19} } }[/tex] ]
= [$332.16, $447.84]
(A) Therefore, a 95% confidence for the population mean is [$332.16, $447.84] .
(B) If the confidence level in part (a) changed from 95% to 99%, then the margin of error for the confidence interval which is [tex]Z_(_\frac{\alpha}{2}_) \times \frac{s}{\sqrt{n} }[/tex] would increase because of an increase in the z value.
(C) If the sample size in part (a) changed from 19 to 22, then the margin of error for the confidence interval which is [tex]Z_(_\frac{\alpha}{2}_) \times \frac{s}{\sqrt{n} }[/tex] would decrease because as denominator increases; the whole fraction decreases.
(D) We are given that to estimate the proportion of students who purchase their textbooks used, 500 students were sampled. 210 of these students purchased used textbooks.
Firstly, the pivotal quantity for finding the confidence interval for the population proportion is given by;
P.Q. = [tex]\frac{\hat p-p}{\sqrt{\frac{\hat p(1-\hat p)}{n} } }[/tex] ~ N(0,1)
where, [tex]\hat p[/tex] = sample proportion students who purchase their used textbooks = [tex]\frac{210}{500}[/tex] = 0.42
n = sample of students = 500
p = population proportion
Here for constructing a 99% confidence interval we have used a One-sample z-test statistics for proportions
So, 99% confidence interval for the population proportion, p is ;
P(-2.58 < N(0,1) < 2.58) = 0.99 {As the critical value of z at 0.5%
level of significance are -2.58 & 2.58}
P(-2.58 < [tex]\frac{\hat p-p}{\sqrt{\frac{\hat p(1-\hat p)}{n} } }[/tex] < 2.58) = 0.99
P( [tex]-2.58 \times {\sqrt{\frac{\hat p(1-\hat p)}{n} } }[/tex] < [tex]{\hat p-p}[/tex] < [tex]2.58 \times {\sqrt{\frac{\hat p(1-\hat p)}{n} } }[/tex] ) = 0.99
P( [tex]\hat p-2.58 \times {\sqrt{\frac{\hat p(1-\hat p)}{n} } }[/tex] < p < [tex]\hat p+2.58 \times {\sqrt{\frac{\hat p(1-\hat p)}{n} } }[/tex] ) = 0.99
99% confidence interval for p = [ [tex]\hat p-2.58 \times {\sqrt{\frac{\hat p(1-\hat p)}{n} } }[/tex] , [tex]\hat p+2.58 \times {\sqrt{\frac{\hat p(1-\hat p)}{n} } }[/tex] ]
= [ [tex]0.42 -2.58 \times {\sqrt{\frac{0.42(1-0.42)}{500} } }[/tex] , [tex]0.42 +2.58 \times {\sqrt{\frac{0.42(1-0.42)}{500} } }[/tex] ]
= [0.363, 0.477]
Therefore, a 99% confidence interval for the proportion of students who purchase used textbooks is [0.363, 0.477] .

Step-by-step explanation:
Volume of the real cane = 96 in³
Volume of the model of a can = 12 in³
Volume scale factor = [tex]\frac{\text{Volume of the model}}{\text{Volume of the real can}}[/tex]
= [tex]\frac{12}{96}[/tex]
[tex]=\frac{1}{8}[/tex]
Scale factor of the model = [tex]\sqrt[3]{\text{Volume scale factor}}[/tex]

Select the correct answer from each drop-down menu. The gasoline prices in seven states are $1.96, $2.09, $1.79, $1.61, $1.75, $2.11, and $1.84. The median gasoline price is _____. The difference of the first and third quartiles in this set of gas prices is ______ .
Answer:
The median is 1.84 and the difference between the first and third quartile is 0.34
Step-by-step explanation:
When you write them out 1.84 is the median (middle number). To find the difference I just subtracted the third quartile (2.09) by the first quartile (1.75)
========================================================
Explanation:
Original data set = {1.96, 2.09, 1.79, 1.61, 1.75, 2.11, 1.84}
Sorted data set = {1.61, 1.75, 1.79, 1.84, 1.96, 2.09, 2.11}
Notice that 1.84 is in the middle of the sorted set. Three values are smaller than it, and three values are larger than it.
Therefore, 1.84 is the median.
The values {1.61, 1.75, 1.79} are smaller than the median. We'll call this set L for lower set.
The values {1.96, 2.09, 2.11} are larger than the median. We'll call this set U for upper set.
From set L = {1.61, 1.75, 1.79}, the median here is 1.75. This is the value of the first quartile Q1
The value of Q3 is 2.09 as it is in the direct middle of set U = {1.96, 2.09, 2.11}
The interquartile range (IQR) is the difference of Q3 and Q1
IQR = Q3 - Q1
IQR = 2.09 - 1.75
IQR = 0.34

SHALL GIVE BRAINLIEST ANSWER!! A 40% solution of fertilizer is to be mixed with an 80% solution of fertilizer in order to get 80 gallons of a 70% solution. How many gallons of the 40% solution and 80% solution should be mixed? 40% solution =? gallons, 80% solution =? gallons
Answer:
20 gallons of the 40% solution, 60 gallons of the 80% solution
Step-by-step explanation:
Let x = the gallons of the 40% solution, and y = the gallons of a 80% solution. The first thing we want to do here is to convert each percentage into decimal form - including the 70% solution mixture.
40% = 0.40,
80% = 0.80, respectively 70% = 0.70
As you can tell, 0.40 is associated with x gallons, 0.80 is associated with y gallons, and the mixture contains 0.70 [tex]*[/tex] 80 solution, as 0.70 is associated with 80. Therefore we can formulate the following expression,
0.40x + 0.80y = 0.70 [tex]*[/tex] 80
At the same time x + y = 80, as the solution ( mixture ) is present with 80 gallons. Isolating x, x = 80 - y. Let us plug that into our expression, solving for y, following by x gallons.
[tex]0.40\left(\:80\:-\:y\:\right)\:+\:0.80y\:=\:0.70\:\cdot \:80[/tex]
[tex]0.4\left(80-y\right)+0.8y=56[/tex] ( Multiply either side by 10 )
[tex]4\left(80-y\right)+8y=560[/tex] ( Expand )
[tex]320-4y+8y=560[/tex]
[tex]320+4y=560[/tex]
[tex]4y=240[/tex]
[tex]y = \frac{240}{4} = 60[/tex] ( Substitute to solve for x )
[tex]x = 80 - y = 80 - 60 = 20[/tex]
As you can see there are 20 gallons of the 40% solution, and 60 gallons of the 80% solution.

to be compounded daily. What will be the value of Mario's investment in 2 years? Round your answer to the nearest cent, if necessary. Note: 365 days in a year and 30 days in a month.
Answer:
Amount = $6614 and 19 cent
Step-by-step explanation:
Formula for compound interest is
A= p(1+r/n)^(nt)
Compounded daily
So n= 365*2= 730
T= 2
r= 0.13
P= 5100
A= p(1+r/n)^(nt)
A= 5100(1+0.13/730)^(730*2)
A= 5100(1+1.78082*10^-4)^(1460)
A= 5100(1.000178082)^1460
A= 5100(1.2969)
A= 6614.19

An analyst takes a random sample of 25 firms in the telecommunications industry and constructs a confidence interval for the mean return for the prior year. Holding all else constant, if he increased the sample size to 30 firms, how are the standard error of the mean and the width of the confidence interval affected
Answer:
The standard error decreases and the width of the confidence interval also decreases.
Step-by-step explanation:
The standard error of a distribution (E) is given as:
[tex]E=z_{\frac{\alpha}{2} }*\frac{\sigma}{\sqrt{n} }[/tex]
Where n is the sample size, [tex]z_{\frac{\alpha}{2} }[/tex] is the z score of he confidence and [tex]\sigma[/tex] is the standard deviation.
The sample size is inversely proportional to the standard error. If the sample size is increased and everything else is constant, the standard would decrease since they are inversely proportional to each other. The confidence interval = μ ± E = (μ - E, μ + E). μ is the mean
The width of the confidence interval = μ + E - (μ - E) = μ + E - μ + E = 2E
The width of the confidence interval is 2E, therefore as the sample size increase, the margin of error decrease and since the width of the confidence interval is directly proportional to the margin of error, the width of the confidence interval also decreases.

A couple has a total household income of $84,000. The husband earns $18,000 less than twice what the wife earns. How much does the wife earn? Select the correct answer below:
Answer:
$34000
Step-by-step explanation:
We can set up a systems of equations, assuming [tex]h[/tex] is the husbands income and [tex]w[/tex] is the wife's income.
h + w = 84000
h = 2w - 18000
We can substitute h into the equation as 2w - 18000:
(2w - 18000) + w = 84000
Combine like terms:
3w - 18000 = 84000
Add 18000 to both sides
3w = 102000
And divide both sides by 3
w = 34000
Now that we know how much the wife earns, we can also find out how much the husband earns by substituting into the equation.
h + 34000 = 84000
h = 50000

Yuko added a 15 percent tip when she paid her cab driver. If the fare was $25.50, what was the total amount she paid? A. $28 B. $30 C. $31
Answer:
B. $30
Step-by-step explanation:
First, find the amount of the tip.
Multiply the tip rate and taxi fare.
tip rate * taxi fare
The tip rate is 15% and the taxi fare is $25.50
15% * 25.50
Convert 15% to a decimal. Divide 15 by 100 or move the decimal place two spots to the left.
15/100=0.15
15.0 ---> 1.5 ---> 0.15
0.15 * 25.50
3.825
The tip amount is $3.825
Next, find the total amount she paid.
Add the taxi fare and the tip amount.
taxi fare + tip amount
The taxi fare is $25.50 and the tip amount is $3.825
$25.50 + $3.825
$29.325
Round to the nearest dollar. Typically, this would round down to $29, but that is not an answer choice. So, if we round up, the next best answer is $30.
Therefore, the best answer choice is B. $30

The amount of rainfall in January in a certain city is normally distributed with a mean of 3.1 inches and a standard deviation of 0.4 inches. Find the value of the quartile Q 1.
Answer:
2.83
Step-by-step explanation:
For a normally distributed data :
Mean = 3.1 inches
Standard deviation = 0.4 inches
Find the value of the quartile Q1:
The quartile Q1 represents the first quartile which is the Lower 25% of the distribution
25% = 0.25
Using the z-table :
0.25 = - 0.68
The z- score formula
Z-score = ( x - mean / standard deviation)
-0.68 = ((x - 3.1) / 0.4)
x - 3.1 = (-0.68 * 0.4)
x - 3.1 = - 0.272
x = - 0.272 + 3.1
x = 2.828
x = 2.83

What is Multiplication?Multiplication is an operation that represents the basic idea of repeated addition of the same number. The numbers that are multiplied are called the factors and the result that is obtained after the multiplication of two or more numbers is known as the product of those numbers. Multiplication is used to simplify the task of repeated addition of the same number.
Multiplication Formula
The multiplication formula is expressed as, Multiplicand × Multiplier = Product; where:
Multiplicand: The first number (factor).Multiplier: The second number (factor).Product: The final result after multiplying the multiplicand and multiplier.Multiplication symbol: '×' (which connects the entire expression)5 * 3=154 * 8=326 * 1.5=912 * 0.25=3Learn more about multiplication here:

A roll of steel is manufactured on a processing line. The anticipated number of defects in a 10-foot segment of this roll is two. What is the probability of no defects in 10 feet of steel
Answer:
the probability of no defects in 10 feet of steel = 0.1353
Step-by-step explanation:
GIven that:
A roll of steel is manufactured on a processing line. The anticipated number of defects in a 10-foot segment of this roll is two.
Let consider β to be the average value for defecting
So;
β = 2
Assuming Y to be the random variable which signifies the anticipated number of defects in a 10-foot segment of this roll.
Thus, y follows a poisson distribution as number of defect is infinite with the average value of β = 2
i.e
[tex]Y \sim P( \beta = 2)[/tex]
the probability mass function can be represented as follows:
[tex]\mathtt{P(y) = \dfrac{e^{- \beta} \ \beta^ \ y}{y!}}[/tex]
where;
y = 0,1,2,3 ...
Hence, the probability of no defects in 10 feet of steel
y = 0
[tex]\mathtt{P(y =0) = \dfrac{e^{- 2} \ 2^ \ 0}{0!}}[/tex]
[tex]\mathtt{P(y =0) = \dfrac{0.1353 \times 1}{1}}[/tex]
P(y =0) = 0.1353

a kicker starts a football game by "kicking off". The quadratic function y = -10x^2 + 25x models football's height after x seconds. How long, in seconds, is the football in the air?
Answer: 2.5 seconds
Step-by-step explanation:
x refers to time. Since we want to know how long it is in the air, we need to find the time (x) for the ball to land on the ground (y = 0)
0 = -10x² + 25x
0 = -5x(2x - 5)
0 = -5x 0 = 2x - 5
[tex]0 = x\qquad \dfrac{5}{2}=x[/tex]
x = 0 seconds is when the ball was kicked
x = 5/2 --> 2.5 seconds is when the ball landed on the ground
