Answer 1

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]  .

Which is one of the transformations applied to the graph of f(x) = X^2 to change it into the graph of g(x) = -x^2 +16x - 44

Answers

Answer: First a horizontal shift of 8 units, then a reflection over the x-axis, and then a vertical shift of 20 units.

Step-by-step explanation:

Let's construct g(x) in baby steps.

Ok, we start with f(x) = x^2

The first thing we have is a horizontal translation of A units (where A is not known)

A vertical translation of N units to the right, is written as:

g(x) = f(x - N)

Then we have:

g(x) = (x - A)^2 = x^2 - 2*A*x + A^2

Now, you can see that actually g(x) has a negative leading coefficient, which means that we also have an inversion over the x-axis.

Remember that if we have a point (x, y), a reflection over the x-axis transforms our point into (x, -y)

Then if we apply also a reflection over the x-axis, we have:

g(x) = -f(x - A) = -x^2 + 2*A*x - A^2 = -x^2 + 16*x - 44

Then:

2*A = 16

A*A = 44.

The first equation says that A = 16/2 = 8

But 8^2 is not equal to 44.

Then we need another constant coefficient, which is related to a vertical translation.

If we have a relation y = f(x), a vertical translation of N units up, will be

y = f(x) + N.

Then:

g(x) = -f(x - A) + B

-x^2 + 2*A*x - A^2 + B = x^2 + 16*x - 44

Now we have:

2*A = 16

-A^2 + B = - 44

From the first equation we have A = 8, now we replace it in the second equation and get:

-8^2 + B = -44

B = -44 + 64 = 20

Then we have:

The transformation is:

First an horizontal shift of 8 units, then a reflection over the x-axis, and then a vertical shift of 20 units.

Answers

Answer:

The price for 4 people is 52 dollars.

4 × (5.75 + 7.25) = 52

The total cost including drink and popcorn is $52 according to a given condition.

How to form an equation?

Determine the known quantities and designate the unknown quantity as a variable while trying to set up or construct a linear equation to fit a real-world application.

In other words, an equation is a set of variables that are constrained through a situation or case.

Cost of movie ticket =  $7.25/person

Cost of popcorn and drink =  $5.75/person

Total cost per person = 5.75 + 7.25 = $13

Now,

Number of people = 4

So,

4(5.75 + 7.25) = 4(13) = $52

Hence "The total cost including drink and popcorn is $52 according to a given condition".

If 2 x 2 + 13 x − 7 = 0 , then x could equal which of the following?

Answers

Hi there! :)

Answer:

x = 1/2 or -7.

Step-by-step explanation:

(I'm assuming the expression is 2x² + 13x - 7 = 0)

Factor the equation to solve for the possible values of "x":

2x² + 13x - 7 = 0

When factored, we get:

(2x - 1) ( x + 7) = 0

Use the Zero-Product property to solve for the roots:

2x - 1 = 0

2x = 1

x = 1/2.

-----------

x + 7 = 0

x = -7.

Therefore, possible values of x are x = -1/2, 7.

Answer:

x = 1/2     x=-7

Step-by-step explanation:

2 x^2  + 13 x − 7 = 0

Factor

(2x-1)(x+7)=0

Using the zero product property

2x-1 =0   x+7=0

2x=1       x =-7

x = 1/2     x=-7

Find the distance between (8,4) and (8,8).

Answers

Answer:

From the given points above, the distance between them is 4 units.

Step-by-step explanation:

In order to find the distance between the two points, we must know the distance formula.

[tex]d=\sqrt{(x_2-x_1)^2+(y_2-y_1)^2}[/tex]

Now, we plug in our numbers from the coordinate points that we are given to their respectful places.

[tex]d=\sqrt{(8-8)^2+(8-4)^2}[/tex]

Now, we solve. First, simplify the terms in parentheses. So, subtract 8 from 8 and subtract 4 from 8.

[tex]d=\sqrt{(0)^2+(4)^2}[/tex]

Next, solve for the exponents.

[tex]d=\sqrt{0+16}[/tex]

Add the numbers in the radical.  

[tex]d=\sqrt{16}[/tex]

Solve the radical.

[tex]d=4[/tex]

So, the distance  between the two given points is 4 units.

Answers

Answer:

a) 6.00

b) 3.00

c) 1.50

Step-by-step explanation:

Sample error of the mean is expressed mathematically using the formula;

SE = σ /√n where;

σ  is the standard deviation and n is the sample size.

a) Given σ = 18, n = 9

Standard error of the mean = σ /√n

Standard error of the mean = 18/√9

Standard error of the mean = 18/3

Standard error of the mean = 6.00

b) Given σ = 18, n = 36

Standard error of the mean = σ /√n

Standard error of the mean = 18/√36

Standard error of the mean = 18/6

Standard error of the mean = 3.00

c) Given σ = 18, n = 144

Standard error of the mean = σ /√n

Standard error of the mean = 18/√144

Standard error of the mean = 18/12

Standard error of the mean = 3/2

Standard error of the mean = 1.50

Y/x= tan 42.... equation 2

Equating the value of y

Tan 29(x+5) = tan42(x)

Tan29/tan 42 = x/(x+5)

0.61562(x+5)= x

3.0781= x- 0.61562x

3.0781= 0.38438x

3.0781/0.38438= x

A)  1.8
B)  4.2
C)  2.8
D)  3.2​

Answers

Answer:

correct option is C)  2.8

Step-by-step explanation:

given data

string vibrates form =  8 loops

in water loop formed =  10 loops

solution

we consider  mass of stone = m

string length = l

frequency of tuning = f

volume = v

density of stone = [tex]\rho[/tex]

case (1)  

when 8 loop form with 2 adjacent node is [tex]\frac{\lambda }{2}[/tex]

so here

[tex]l = \frac{8 \lambda _1}{2}[/tex]      ..............1

[tex]l = 4 \lambda_1\\\\\lambda_1 = \frac{l}{4}[/tex]

and we know velocity is express as

velocity = frequency × wavelength   .....................2

[tex]\sqrt{\frac{Tension}{mass\ per\ unit \length }}[/tex]   =   f × [tex]\lambda_1[/tex]

here tension = mg

so

[tex]\sqrt{\frac{mg}{\mu}}[/tex]   =   f × [tex]\lambda_1[/tex]     ..........................3

and

case (2)  

when 8 loop form with 2 adjacent node is [tex]\frac{\lambda }{2}[/tex]

[tex]l = \frac{10 \lambda _1}{2}[/tex]      ..............4

[tex]l = 5 \lambda_1\\\\\lambda_1 = \frac{l}{5}[/tex]

when block is immersed

equilibrium  eq will be

Tenion + force of buoyancy = mg

T + v × [tex]\rho[/tex] × g = mg

and

T = v × [tex]\rho[/tex] - v × [tex]\rho[/tex] × g    

from equation 2

f × [tex]\lambda_2[/tex] = f  × [tex]\frac{1}{5}[/tex]  

[tex]\sqrt{\frac{v\rho _{stone} g - v\rho _{water} g}{\mu}} = f \times \frac{1}{5}[/tex]     .......................5

now we divide eq 5 by the eq 3

[tex]\sqrt{\frac{vg (\rho _{stone} - \rho _{water})}{\mu vg \times \rho _{stone}}} = \frac{fl}{5} \times \frac{4}{fl}[/tex]

solve irt we get

[tex]1 - \frac{\rho _{stone}}{\rho _{water}} = \frac{16}{25}[/tex]

so

relative density [tex]\frac{\rho _{stone}}{\rho _{water}} = \frac{25}{9}[/tex]

relative density = 2.78 ≈ 2.8

so correct option is C)  2.8

A ladder 10 ft long leans against a vertical wall. If the lower end is being moved away from the wall at the rate of 6 ​ft/sec, how fast is the height of the top changing​ (this will be a negative​ rate) when the lower end is 6 feet from the​ wall?

Answers

Answer:

-4.5ft per sec

Step-by-step explanation:

Assume that vertical wall has a distance of y and the horizontal floor is x (6 ft).

This forms a triangle with the ladder as the hypothenus of length 10ft

We have dy/dt = 6ft per sec

According to Pythagoras law the relationship between x and y is

(x^2) + (y^2) = (hypothenus ^2) = 10^2

When we differentiate both sides of the equation

2x(dx/dt) + 2y(dy/dt) = 0

dy/dt = (x/y) * (dx/dt)

y= √(10^2) - (6^2) = 8ft

So dy/dt = (6/8)* (6/1)= -4.5 ft per sec

It is a negative rate

A leaf blower was marked up 100% from an original cost of $152. If Eva bought the leaf blower and paid 7% sales tax, how much in total did she pay?

Answers

Answer:

$325.28

Step-by-step explanation:

152+152=304

304x1.07=325.28

Answer:

325.28

Step-by-step explanation:

increase the price by 100 %

152* 100%

152

Add this to the original price

152+152 = 304

Now find the sales tax

304 * 7%

304 * .07

21.28

Add this to the amount of the purchase price

304+21.28

325.28

From her purchased bags, Rory counted 110 red candies out of 550 total candies. Using a 90% confidence interval for the population proportion, what are the lower and upper limit of the interval? Answer choices are rounded to the thousandths place.

Answers

Answer:

The Confidence Interval = (0.172, 0.228)

Where:

The lower limit = 0.172

The upper limit = 0.228

Step-by-step explanation:

The formula to be applied or used to solve this question is :

Confidence Interval formula for proportion.

The formula is given as :

p ± z × √[p(1 - p)/n]

n = Total number of red candies = 550 red candles

p = proportion = Number of red candies counted/ Total number of red candies

= 110/550 = 1/5 = 0.2

z = z score for the given confidence interval.

We are given a confidence interval of 90%. Therefore, the z score = 1.6449

Confidence Interval = p ± z × √[p(1 - p)/n]

Confidence Interval = 0.2 ± 1.6449 × √[0.2(1 - 0.2)/550]

= 0.2 ± 1.6449 √0.2 × 0.8/550

= 0.2 ± 1.6449 × 0.0170560573

= 0.2 ± 0.0280555087

Hence, the Confidence Interval = 0.2 ± 0.0280555087

0.2 - 0.0280555087 = 0.1719444913

Approximately = 0.172

0.2 + 0.0280555087 = 0.2280555087

Approximately = 0.228

Therefore, the Confidence Interval = (0.172, 0.228)

Where:

The lower limit = 0.172

The upper limit = 0.228

Answer:

Lower Limit: 0.172

Upper Limit: 0.228

Step-by-step explanation:

A European study of thousands of men found that the PSA screening for prostate cancer reduced the risk of a man’s dying from prostate cancer from 3.0 percent to 2.4 percent. "But it’s already a small risk. I don’t think a difference of less than 1 percent would be of practical importance," said Ed. Do you agree with Ed’s conclusion?

Answers

Answer:

Following are the answer to this question:

Step-by-step explanation:

In the given statement, we don't agree with Ed’s conclusion, because it is not relevant simply since it is not statistically significant. The reduction of prostate cancer is the death risk, which is highly significant even if it decreases significantly. It can also be something statistically important without becoming important.

Which of the following statements is TRUE about the stepwise selection procedure?
A. The stepwise selection procedure uses Adjusted R-square as the "best" model criterion.
B. Backward stepwise procedure and forward stepwise procedure would end up with the same "best" model.
C. The "best" model determined by the stepwise selection method is the same model as what would be selected by complete search but stepwise method is usually faster.
D. Different choices of alpha limits for variable selection may end up with different final models.

Answers

Answer:

A. The stepwise selection procedure uses Adjusted R-square as the "best" model criterion.

Step-by-step explanation:

Stepwise regression is a model which uses variables in step by step manner. The procedure involves removal or inclusion of independent variables one by one. It adds the most significant independent variable and removes the less significant independent variable. Usually stepwise selection uses R-square or Mallows Cp for picking the best fit.
