You are told that a random sample of 150 people from Manchester New Hampshire have been given cholesterol tests, and 60 of these people had levels over the "safe" count of 200. Construct a 95% confidence interval for the population proportion of people in New Hampshire with cholesterol levels over 200.

Answers

Answer 1

Answer:

The 95% confidence interval for the population proportion of people in New Hampshire with cholesterol levels over 200 is (0.3216, 0.4784).

Step-by-step explanation:

In a sample with a number n of people surveyed with a probability of a success of [tex]\pi[/tex], and a confidence level of [tex]1-\alpha[/tex], we have the following confidence interval of proportions.

[tex]\pi \pm z\sqrt{\frac{\pi(1-\pi)}{n}}[/tex]

In which

z is the z-score that has a p-value of [tex]1 - \frac{\alpha}{2}[/tex].

You are told that a random sample of 150 people from Manchester New Hampshire have been given cholesterol tests, and 60 of these people had levels over the "safe" count of 200.

This means that [tex]n = 150, \pi = \frac{60}{150} = 0.4[/tex]

95% confidence level

So [tex]\alpha = 0.05[/tex], z is the value of Z that has a p-value of [tex]1 - \frac{0.05}{2} = 0.975[/tex], so [tex]Z = 1.96[/tex].

The lower limit of this interval is:

[tex]\pi - z\sqrt{\frac{\pi(1-\pi)}{n}} = 0.4 - 1.96\sqrt{\frac{0.4*0.6}{150}} = 0.3216[/tex]

The upper limit of this interval is:

[tex]\pi + z\sqrt{\frac{\pi(1-\pi)}{n}} = 0.4 + 1.96\sqrt{\frac{0.4*0.6}{150}} = 0.4784[/tex]

The 95% confidence interval for the population proportion of people in New Hampshire with cholesterol levels over 200 is (0.3216, 0.4784).

Answers

Answer:

A = 25pi

Step-by-step explanation:

The area of a circle is given by

A = pi r^2

A = pi (5)^2

A = 25pi

Answer:

Area of circle is 25 π Or 78.5 .

Step-by-step explanation:

We know that

Area of circle = π × r ²

Here,

π = 3.14

r = 5

Substituting the given values in this formula

Area of circle = π × ( 5 ) ²

Area of circle = π × 25

multiplying the values, we get

Area of circle = 25 π Or 78.5

- The two diagonals through the figure are lines of symmetry too.

What is line of symmetry?

In mathematics, reflection symmetry, line symmetry, mirror symmetry, or mirror-image symmetry is symmetry with respect to a reflection. That is, a figure which does not change upon undergoing a reflection has reflectional symmetry. In 2D there is a line/axis of symmetry, in 3D a plane of symmetry.

here, we have,

Explanation

Lines of symmetry refer to lines that can be drawn on figures and the figure on either sides of the line will be mirror images of each other.

For example, for this figure given, if a vertical line is drawn straight through the middle of the figure, the two resulting figures on either sides of the vertical line will be mirror images of each other.

So, the other lines of symmetry for this include

- A horizontal line through the middle of the figure

- The two diagonals through the figure are lines of symmetry too.

A bookmark is shaped like a rectangle with a semicircle attached at both ends. The rectangle is 10 cm long and 4 cm wide. The diameter of each circle is the width of the rectangle. What is the area of the bookmark? Use 3.14 for π.


The area of the bookmark is cm2.

Plzz help me

Answers

Answer:

Area of the bookmark = 52.56 cm²

Step-by-step explanation:

The two semicircles attached at both end of the rectangle will give us a full circle.

Therefore,

Area of the bookmark = area of rectangle + Area of a circle

Area of the bookmark = L × W + πr²

Length (L) = 10 cm

Width (W) = 4 cm

radius (r) = ½(4) = 2 cm

π = 3.14

Plug in the values into the equation

Area of bookmark = 10 × 4 + 3.14 × 2²

= 40 + 12.56

= 52.56 cm²

Use the zeros and the labeled point to write the quadratic function represented by the graph.​

Answers

Answer:

The quadratic function represented by the graph is [tex]y = x^{2}-6\cdot x + 8[/tex].

Step-by-step explanation:

Parabolae are defined by second order polynomials, that is, a polynomial of the form:

[tex]y = a\cdot x^{2} + b\cdot x + c[/tex] (1)

Where:

[tex]x[/tex] - Independent variable.

[tex]y[/tex] - Dependent variable.

[tex]a, b, c[/tex] - Coefficients.

By Algebra, we know can calculate the set of all coefficients based on the knowledge of three distinct points. According to the graph, we have the following points: [tex](x_{1}, y_{1}) = (2, 0)[/tex], [tex](x_{2}, y_{2}) = (4, 0)[/tex] and [tex](x_{3}, y_{3}) = (6, 8)[/tex], and the resulting system of linear equations is:

[tex]4\cdot a + 2\cdot b + c = 0[/tex] (2)

[tex]16\cdot a + 4\cdot b + c = 0[/tex] (3)

[tex]36\cdot a + 6\cdot b + c = 8[/tex] (4)

The solution of the system of linear equations is:

[tex]a = 1, b = -6, c = 8[/tex]

Hence, the quadratic function represented by the graph is [tex]y = x^{2}-6\cdot x + 8[/tex].

Answer:

346.1 monthly payments; 28.8 years18.5 years; infinite years

Step-by-step explanation:

Two formulas come into play here. One is the future value of a series of payments. The other is the payment amount available from an ordinary annuity.

  FV = An/r((1 +r/n)^(nt) -1) . . . . future value of payments of A made n times per year for t years

  A = P(r/n)/(1 -(1 +r/n)^(-nt)) . . . . payment from principal P at invested at rate r for t years, compounded n times per year.

__

Problem 1

You want FV = $350,000, A = $400, r = 0.057, n = 12, and we want to find t. We can solve the FV equation for t to get ...

  log(FV·r/(An) +1)/log(1 +r/n) = nt . . . . . number of months

  log(350000·0.057/(400·12) +1)/log(1 +0.057/12) = nt ≈ 346.1

The retirement account can be funded by 346.1 monthly payments. That will take 28.8 years.

__

Problem 2

Again, solving for t, we get ...

  log(1 -Pr/(An))/(-n·log(1 +r/n)) = t

The parameters for this are P = 700,000, A = 5000, n = 12, r = 0.054, so the account can be expected to last for ...

  log(1 -700000·0.054/(5000·12))/(-12·log(1 +0.054/12)) ≈ 18.5 . . . years

Changing the withdrawal to $3000 per month makes the account last forever.  It earns $3150 in interest each month, so the account balance continues to increase.

The account will support withdrawals of $5000 per month for 18.5 years.

The account will support withdrawals of $3000 per month forever.

Joseph needs to drive 42 miles. They were going to drive at a certain average speed, but if they drive 10 mph faster, the trip will take 6 minutes (1/10 of an hour) less time. How fast were they going to drive? Write out the equation(s) ​

Answers

Answer:

The speed is 60 mph.

Step-by-step explanation:

distance = 42 miles

Let he drove with speed v and time is t.

distance = speed x time

42 = v t ..... (1)

42 = (v + 10)(t - 1/10) ..... (2)

[tex]42 = 42 -\frac{v}{10}+ 10 t - 1\\\\t =\frac{10+v}{100}\\\\Put in (1)\\\\42 = \frac{v(10+v)}{100}\\\\v^2 + 10 v - 4200 = 0 \\\\v = \frac{-10\pm \sqrt{100+4\times 4200}}{2}\\\\v =\frac{- 10 \pm 130}{2}\\\\v =- 70 mph, 60mph[/tex]

So, the speed cannot be negative so the speed is 60 mph.

Given

Let

[tex]K \to Kapil[/tex]

Given

[tex]M:S:K = \frac{1}{3}:\frac{1}{4}:\frac{1}{6}[/tex]

[tex]Amount = 1800[/tex]

Required

Divide

We have:

[tex]M:S:K = \frac{1}{3}:\frac{1}{4}:\frac{1}{6}[/tex]

Multiply the ratio by 12 (to convert them to whole numbers)

[tex]M:S:K = 12 *\frac{1}{3}:12*\frac{1}{4}:12*\frac{1}{6}[/tex]

[tex]M:S:K = 4 : 3 : 2[/tex]

The total ratio is:

[tex]Total = 4 + 3 + 2 = 9[/tex]

So, the amount each collected is:

[tex]Marmik = \frac{M}{Total} * Amount[/tex]

[tex]Marmik = \frac{4}{9} *1800 = 800[/tex]

Using the same formula for others, we have:

[tex]Sujata = \frac{3}{9} *1800 = 600[/tex]

[tex]Kapil = \frac{2}{9} *1800 = 400[/tex]

what happens when you divide by 0? i did this problem in my calculator and it broke.

Answers

Answer:

ans is 0

Step-by-step explanation:

69 + 420 ÷ 0

489 ÷ 0

0

Answer:

Undefined

Step-by-step explanation:

When you try to divide by 0, your calculator will yield an error because any number (including zero) divided by zero is undefined.

You can think of it like this: if you divide any number by zero, how many times does zero go into that number? An undefined amount of times. If you had zero divided by zero, you'd still run into the issue that any number works:[tex]k\cdot 0=0, k\in \mathbb{R}[/tex]. Because [tex]k[/tex] can be any real number, it is still undefined.

There is an argument for infinity because for function  [tex]f(x)=\frac{k}{x}, k\in \mathbb{R}[/tex], as [tex]x[/tex] approaches 0, [tex]f(x)[/tex] approaches infinity:

[tex]\lim_{x\rightarrow 0}f(x)=\infty[/tex]

However, infinity is not a number and should not be treated as such. Undefined is a more precise answer.
