A telephone service representative believes that the proportion of customers completely satisfied with their local telephone service is different between the South and the Midwest. The representative's belief is based on the results of a survey. The survey included a random sample of 1300 southern residents and 1380 midwestern residents. 39% of the southern residents and 50% of the midwestern residents reported that they were completely satisfied with their local telephone service. Find the 80% confidence interval for the difference in two proportions. Step 1 of 3 : Find the point estimate that should be used in constructing the confidence interval

Answers

Answer 1

Answer:

The point estimate that should be used in constructing the confidence interval is 0.11.

The 80% confidence interval for the difference in two proportions is (0.0856, 0.1344).

Step-by-step explanation:

Before building the confidence interval, we need to understand the central limit theorem and subtraction of normal variables.

Central Limit Theorem

The Central Limit Theorem establishes that, for a normally distributed random variable X, with mean [tex]\mu[/tex] and standard deviation [tex]\sigma[/tex], the sampling distribution of the sample means with size n can be approximated to a normal distribution with mean [tex]\mu[/tex] and standard deviation [tex]s = \frac{\sigma}{\sqrt{n}}[/tex].

For a skewed variable, the Central Limit Theorem can also be applied, as long as n is at least 30.

For a proportion p in a sample of size n, the sampling distribution of the sample proportion will be approximately normal with mean [tex]\mu = p[/tex] and standard deviation [tex]s = \sqrt{\frac{p(1-p)}{n}}[/tex]

Subtraction between normal variables:

When two normal variables are subtracted, the mean is the difference of the means, while the standard deviation is the square root of the sum of the variances.

Midwest:

50% of 1380, so:

[tex]p_M = 0.5[/tex]

[tex]s_M = \sqrt{\frac{0.5*0.5}{1380}} = 0.0135[/tex]

South:

39% of 1300, so:

[tex]p_S = 0.39[/tex]

[tex]s_S = \sqrt{\frac{0.39*0.61}{1300}} = 0.0135[/tex]

Distribution of the difference:

[tex]p = p_M - p_S = 0.5 - 0.39 = 0.11[/tex]

So the point estimate that should be used in constructing the confidence interval is 0.11.

[tex]s = \sqrt{s_M^2+s_S^2} = \sqrt{0.0135^2+0.0135^2} = 0.0191[/tex]

Confidence interval:

[tex]p \pm zs[/tex]

In which

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

80% confidence level

So [tex]\alpha = 0.2[/tex], z is the value of Z that has a p-value of [tex]1 - \frac{0.2}{2} = 0.9[/tex], so [tex]Z = 1.28[/tex].  

The lower bound of the interval is:

[tex]p - zs = 0.11 - 1.28*0.0191 = 0.0856[/tex]

The upper bound of the interval is:

[tex]p + zs = 0.11 + 1.28*0.0191 = 0.1344[/tex]

The 80% confidence interval for the difference in two proportions is (0.0856, 0.1344).

Suppose Event A is taking 15 or more minutes to get to work tomorrow and Event B is taking less than 15 minutes to get to work tomorrow. Events A and B are said to be complementary events.

a. True
b. False

Answers

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.

.

The number of planes that can be drawn that pass through point A is 1.

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.

Using that concept, "factoring" is basically the inverse of multiplication

3x^2 + 9x can be factored to 3x(x+3)

if you multiply that out it reverts back to the original equation

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.

Answers

Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:

The remainder when f(x) is divided by x + 3 would be 76.

What is remainder theorem for polynomials?

If there is a polynomial p(x), and a constant number 'a', then

[tex]\dfrac{p(x)}{(x-a)} = g(x) + p(a)[/tex]

where g(x) is a factor of p(x).

We have been given a function;

[tex]f(x) = -2x^3 + x^2 - 4x + 1[/tex]

We need to find the remainder when f(x) is divided by x + 3.

So, Let p(x) = x + 3

p(x) = 0

x + 3 = 0

x = -3

Substitute in the given function f(x);

[tex]f(x) = -2x^3 + x^2 - 4x + 1\\\\f(-3) = -2(-3)^3 + (-3)^2 - 4(-3) + 1\\\\f(-3) = 54 + 9 + 12 + 1\\\\f(-3) = 76[/tex]

Thus, the remainder when f(x) is divided by x + 3 would be 76.
