A bank wishes to estimate the mean balances owed by customers holding Mastercard. The population standard deviation is estimated to be $300. If a 98% confidence interval is used and the maximum allowable error is $80, how many cardholders should be sampled?
A. 76
B. 85
C. 86
D. 77

Answers

Answer 1

Answer:

D. 77

Step-by-step explanation:

We have to find our [tex]\alpha[/tex] level, that is the subtraction of 1 by the confidence interval divided by 2. So:

[tex]\alpha = \frac{1 - 0.98}{2} = 0.01[/tex]

Now, we have to find z in the Z-table as such z has a p-value of [tex]1 - \alpha[/tex].

That is z with a p-value of [tex]1 - 0.01 = 0.99[/tex], so Z = 2.327.

Now, find the margin of error M as such

[tex]M = z\frac{\sigma}{\sqrt{n}}[/tex]

In which [tex]\sigma[/tex] is the standard deviation of the population and n is the size of the sample.

The population standard deviation is estimated to be $300

This means that [tex]\sigma = 300[/tex]

If a 98% confidence interval is used and the maximum allowable error is $80, how many cardholders should be sampled?

This is n for which M = 80. So

[tex]M = z\frac{\sigma}{\sqrt{n}}[/tex]

[tex]80 = 2.327\frac{300}{\sqrt{n}}[/tex]

[tex]80\sqrt{n} = 2.327*300[/tex]

[tex]\sqrt{n} = \frac{2.327*300}{80}[/tex]

[tex](\sqrt{n})^2 = (\frac{2.327*300}{80})^2[/tex]

[tex]n = 76.15[/tex]

Rounding up:

77 cardholders should be sampled, and the correct answer is given by option d.

Step-by-step explanation:

notice that x = MK = HM = 24.

Let the center of the circle be C.

Also, notice the radius of the circle can be expressed as the hypotenuse of HMC. Using some trig, we figure out that the radius is 24/sin(33 degrees).

Using the radius of the circle, we can figure out the circumference. The circumference is pi*r^2=(24/sin(33 degrees))^2*pi=pi*24^2/(sin(33 degrees)^2)

Lastly, notice that y = 33/360*circumference = 33/360 π×24^2/(sin^2(33° (degrees)))

Part B: Determine the x-intercepts. What do these values mean in the context of the problem? (5 points)

(10 points)

Answers

Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:

The way to do this so as to streamline both the vertex and finding the zeros is to complete the square. That method will provide us with the vertex, and then we can continue on to factor from that form to find the zeros. Completing the square requires us to set the quadratic equal to 0 then move over the constant, giving us

[tex]-x^2+18x=72[/tex] The leading coefficient HAS to be a positive 1; ours is negative 1 so we factor out the negative to get:

[tex]-(x^2-18x)=72[/tex] Now we're ready to complete the square.

Take half the linear term, square it, and add it to both sides. Our linear term is 18 (from -18x; don't worry about the negative because squaring it makes it positive anyway). Half of 18 is 9, and 9 squared is 81.

BUT on the left we have that -1 sitting out front that refuses to be ignored. What we actually added on to the left side, inside the parenthesis, is -1(81) which is -81.   -81 is what we add to the right since that turns out to be what we added to the left:

[tex]-(x^2-18x+81)=72-81[/tex] and we clean that up.

The reason we complete the square is because when we simplify the left side, we end up with a perfect square binomial found from taking the square root of x-squared, the first sign we come to, then the square root of 81:

[tex]-(x-9)^2=-9[/tex].  Move the constant back over to get

[tex]-(x-9)^2+9=y[/tex] telling us that the vertex is (9, 9). In the context of the problem that means that the gym sells on average 9 memberships a day and the profit it makes on average per day is $9.

To factor, we will go back one step to

[tex]-(x-9)^2=-9[/tex] and begin by dividing both sides by -1 to get

[tex](x-9)^2=9[/tex] and undo the squaring by taking the square root of both sides to get

x - 9 = ±3 so

x = 9 + 3 and

x = 9 - 3 so

x = 6 and 12

Those are the zeros. This means that if they sell either 6 or 12 memberships they have a 0 profit. That may sound strange, but in business it does often work like that...selling too many of something makes your company lose money (this is often due to the cost required by you to produce or manufacture the product).

Answers

Answer:

a. Yes

b. VT

c. Segment RQ

Step-by-step explanation:

a. Find the slope of RS and UV

Slope = rise/run

Slope of RS = rise/run = RQ/QS

Slope of RS = 6/6

Slope of RS = 1

Slope of UV = rise/run = UT/TV

Slope of UV = 3/3

Slope of UV = 1

Thus, TS and UV have equivalent slopes

b. Slope of VT:

VT is an horizontal line.

It has no rise. But only run.

Therefore, it's rise = 0, while run = VT = 3

Slope of VT = rise/run = 0/3

Slope of VT = 0

c. Vertical lines have undefined slope.

Segment RQ is vertical line and therefore has an undefined slope.

RQ has rise but no run.

Thus:

Rise = 6

Run = 0

Slope of Segment RQ = 6/0 (this can't divide)

Therefore, slope of Segment RQ is undefined.

How to estimate the number of planes that can be drawn that pass through point A?

A perpendicular line creates an angle of 90° with a line or a plane. If a line exists to be drawn from a point to a line or a plane it can only be one. In this case, a line exists to be drawn through a point A to a plane P. If the line stands to be perpendicular, then it exists only one.

Answers

Answer:

A) 3

Pippa kept 3 stickers for herself

Answer to question 2:

The misconception of if a student selects D) 27 is that instead of dividing to find out how many stickers Pippa kept for herself, the student subtracted. They subtracted instead of dividing.

Step-by-step explanation:

It said that Pippa gave each of her friends an EQUAL number of stickers and AS MANY STICKERS AS POSSIBLE. This tells us that to find our answer we need to divide and what ever the remainder is, is how many stickers Pippa kept for herself.

(You will kind of need to do long division for this)

35 ÷ 8 = 4

8 x 4 = 32

35 - 32 = 3

Pippa will give each of her friends 4 stickers and will keep 3 for herself.

35 stickers - 8 friends = 27

Answer:

Hence the answer is TRUE.

Step-by-step explanation:

If event A is taking 15 or more minutes to urge to figure tomorrow and event B is taking but a quarter-hour to urge to figure tomorrow, then events A and B must be complimentary events. this is often because the occurring of 1 is going to be precisely the opposite of the occurring of the opposite event and that they cannot occur simultaneously. In other words, events A and B are mutually exclusive and exhaustive.
