In an episode of the old school version of the game show Family Feud, 43 out of a random sample of 100 people said they pick their noses at red lights. Find a 95% confidence interval of the proportion of all people who pick their noses at red lights. Be sure to interpret your answer
Answer:
[tex]P_{95\%}=(0.333,0.527)[/tex]
Step-by-step explanation:
From the question we are told that:
Sample size [tex]n=100[/tex]
Selected sample [tex]x=43[/tex]
Confidence Interval [tex]CI=95\%[/tex]
Significance Level [tex]\alpha=0.05[/tex]
Probability of picking nose is
[tex]P=\frac{x}{n}[/tex]
[tex]P=\frac{43}{100}[/tex]
[tex]P=0.43[/tex]
Generally the equation for standard error is mathematically given by
[tex]S.E=\sqrt{p*(1-p)}{n}[/tex]
[tex]S.E=\sqrt{0.4*(1-0.57)}{100}[/tex]
[tex]S.E=0.0495[/tex]
Therefore
The proportions 95\% interval is
[tex]P_{95\%}=[P-1.96x SE(P),P+1.96*SE(P)][/tex]
[tex]P_{95\%}=(0.43-1.96*0.0495,0.43+1.96*0.045)[/tex]
[tex]P_{95\%}=(0.333,0.527)[/tex]

Cual es el capital que prestado al 10% bimestral durante 6 meses y 10 días produce un interés de 1140
Respuesta:
3650
Explicación paso a paso:
Dado que :
Principal, P = capital prestado
Tasa anual, r = 10% * 6 = 60%
Interés = 1140
Periodo = 6 meses y 10 días = (6 * 30) +10 = 190 días
Conversión a años:
Periodo = 190/365
Usando la relación:
Interés = principal * tasa * tiempo
1140 = P * 60% * (190/365)
1140 = 0.3123287P
P = 1140 / 0,3123287
P = 3650

A translation will prove that shape 2 is congruent to shape 1. C. A rotation and a translation will prove that shape 2 is congruent to shape 1. D. A reflection, a rotation, and a translation will prove that shape 2 is congruent to shape 1.
Answer:
Since I cant say which answer due to no graph, I'll tell you How to do so.
Step-by-step explanation:
if it is A, then the there is at least one angle or line length that is not the same. To find the area of a grided shape, use the traingle theorm of a^2+b^2=c^2.
if it is B, that meants moving the shape to the other will result in a perfect fit. Be sure to find if all side lengths are the same as that means that the shape IS congrouent, as equal side length means equal angles. However, it will not be this choice if the shape is mirrored to the other
A rotation and tranlastion means it is flipped either upside down or up and moved to the shape.
D, a reflection, which means its the opposite. Like a mirrored shape. Then you move it.

A manufacturer knows that their items have a normally distributed length, with a mean of 18.2 inches, and standard deviation of 3.9 inches. If 2 items are chosen at random, what is the probability that their mean length is less than 21.9 inches
Answer:
0.9099 = 90.99% probability that their mean length is less than 21.9 inches.
Step-by-step explanation:
To solve this question, we need to understand the normal probability distribution and the central limit theorem.
Normal Probability Distribution
Problems of normal distributions can be solved using the z-score formula.
In a set with mean [tex]\mu[/tex] and standard deviation [tex]\sigma[/tex], the z-score of a measure X is given by:
[tex]Z = \frac{X - \mu}{\sigma}[/tex]
The Z-score measures how many standard deviations the measure is from the mean. After finding the Z-score, we look at the z-score table and find the p-value associated with this z-score. This p-value is the probability that the value of the measure is smaller than X, that is, the percentile of X. Subtracting 1 by the p-value, we get the probability that the value of the measure is greater than X.
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.
Mean of 18.2 inches, and standard deviation of 3.9 inches.
This means that [tex]\mu = 18.2, \sigma = 3.9[/tex]
2 itens:
This means that [tex]n = 2, s = \frac{3.9}{\sqrt{2}}[/tex]
What is the probability that their mean length is less than 21.9 inches?
This is the p-value of Z when X = 21.9. So
[tex]Z = \frac{X - \mu}{\sigma}[/tex]
[tex]Z = \frac{21.9 - 18.2}{\frac{3.9}{\sqrt{2}}}[/tex]
[tex]Z = 1.34[/tex]
[tex]Z = 1.34[/tex] has a p-value of 0.9099.
0.9099 = 90.99% probability that their mean length is less than 21.9 inches.

How much bigger is the Sum of first 50 even numbers than the sum of first 50 odd numbers?
Answer:
50
Step-by-step explanation:
Sum Even numbers
n = 50
d = 2
a1 = 2
The last number is
an = a1 + (n-1)d
an = 2 + (50 - 1)*2
an = 2 + 49 * 2
an = 2 + 98
an = 100
Sum of the even numbers
Sum = (a1 + a50)*n/ 2
Sum = (2 + 100)*50/2
sum = 102 * 25
sum = 2550
Sum of the first 50 odd numbers
a1 = 1
n = 50
d = 2
l = ?
Find l
l = a1 + (n - 1)*2
l = 1 + 49*2
l = 99
Sum
Sum = (1 + 99)*50/2
Sum = 2500
The difference and answer is 2550 - 2500 = 50
Which graph represents the function h(x)=x+0.5
Answer:
The correct graph of h(x) will be number 3 (c).
Step-by-step explanation:
We have the function h(x) = |x| + 0.5
On putting x=0, in the function h(x), we get,
h(0) = |0| + 0.5
h(0)=0 + 0.5
h(0)=0.5
Thus, the point (0,0.5) lie on the graph of h(x).
The graph that represents the function h(x) is graph (c)
How to determine the graph?The equation is given as:
h(x) = |x| + 0.5
The above equation is an absolute value function
An absolute value function is represented as:
h(x) = a|x + h| + k
Where:
Vertex = (h,k)
By comparing h(x) = a|x + h| + k and h(x) = |x| + 0.5, we have:
h = 0 and k = 0.5
So, the vertex is (0,0.5)
The graph that has a vertex of (0,0.5) is graph (c)
Hence, the graph that represents the function h(x) is graph (c)

Suppose that there are two internet service providers in Kabwe, Eyeconnect and Topconnect.
Currently, Eyeconnect has 180 000 customers and Topconnect has 120 000 customers.
Assume that, every year, 10% of the customer base of Eyeconnect switches to Topconnect
and 5% of the customer base of Topconnect switches to Eyeconnect. For the purposes of this
question, suppose no customer leaves a company without switching to the other one and no
company attracts customers that are not leaving the other (that is, the only changes in
customer base come from switching between the two companies).
a. Find the number of customers of Eyeconnect and Topconnect after one year.
b. Find the number of customers of Eyeconnect after many years.
Answer:
a. 168000 for Eyeconnect, 132000 for Topconnect
b. 100,000
Step-by-step explanation:
a.
Because the change in customers are only due to leaving companies, we can say that, after one year, Eyeconnect loses 10% of its customers to Topconnect and Topconnect loses 5% of its customers to Eyeconnect. This represents all changes in customers.
First, we can calculate how much Eyeconnect loses, which is 10% of 180,000 = 0.1 * 180,000 = 18,000 . They then have 180,000 - 18,000 = 162,000 employees
Next, Topconnect loses 120,000 * 5% = 120,000 * 0.05 = 6,000. They then have 120,000-6,000 = 114,000 employees
We can then add the customer amounts. Note that we are subtracting both sides before adding as both companies gain and lose customers simultaneously.
We can then add how much one company lost to the other company's customers.
Eyeconnect gains 6,000 customers, so they then have 162,000 + 6,000 = 168000 employees. Topconnect gains 18,000 customers so they then have 114,000 + 18,000 = 132,000 employees
b.
After many years, the number of customers Eyeconnect has will be less than the number of customers that Topconnect has. One way to find the end amount of customers that Eyeconnect has is to figure out when the customer bases even out, or when Eyeconnect loses the same amount of customers as Topconnect so the customer base stays the exact same. We know that no customers leave or join the companies except to leave/join the other, so the total amount of customers between the two companies stays the exact same. The amount of customers is 180,000 + 120,000 = 300,000. Therefore, at the end amount,
Eyeconnect customers (E) + Topconnect customers (T) =300,000
Furthermore, if the amount of customers that leave Eyeconnect is the same that leaves Topconnect, we can say
E * 0.1 = T * 0.05
divide both sides by 0.05 to isolate the T
E * 0.1 / 0.05 = T
2 * E = T
plug that into the first equation
E + 2 * E = 300,000
3 * E = 300,000
divide both sides by 3 to isolate E
E = 100,000 after many years

A. x = ∛(3y) ⇒ x³ = 3y ⇒ x³/3 = y . . . . . does not match g(x)
B. x = 11y -4 ⇒ x +4 = 11y ⇒ (x +4)/11 = y . . . . matches g(x)
C. x = 3/y -10 ⇒ x +10 = 3/y ⇒ 3/(x+10) = y . . . . does not match g(x)

Additional comment
This is repeated application of the "solve for ..." process. In general, that process "undoes" what is "done" to the variable. The order of operations can tell you the order of the things that are done. The undoing is in the reverse order.
You need to be completely comfortable with the properties of equality (addition, subtraction, multiplication, division), and you need to understand the inverse functions of the functions we usually use: (powers, roots), (exponentials, logarithms), (trig functions, inverse trig functions). Of course, the inverse of addition is subtraction; the inverse of multiplication is division.

Answer:
6.5sin(.04x+.4pi)-8
The function intersects its midline at (-pi,-8) and has a maximum point at (pi/4, "-1.5). The final equation is h(x) = 4 sin(2x + π /2) + 3.
What is a function?A function is defined as a relation between the set of inputs having exactly one output each.
The function intersects its midline at (3π/4, 3) then the midline is d= 3.
The amplitude is just the positive distance between the maximum/minimum and the midline,
so the amplitude a = 7 - 3 = 4
Also, given that period is 2π/b and the fact that the period is π from our given maximum,
we have the equation 2π/b= π where b = 2
we know that the phase shift, -c/b is - π/4 (or to the left)
since -π /4. Therefore, c = π /2.
our final equation is
h(x) = 4 sin(2x + π /2) + 3.

g) [tex]4.5 \times 10^{-8}[/tex] probability that exactly half the young adults in a simple random sample of 100 do not own a landline.
Step-by-step explanation:
For each young adult, there are only two possible outcomes. Either they do not own a landline, or they do. The probability of an young adult not having a landline is independent of any other adult, which means that the binomial probability distribution is used to solve this question.
Binomial probability distribution
The binomial probability is the probability of exactly x successes on n repeated trials, and X can only have two outcomes.
[tex]P(X = x) = C_{n,x}.p^{x}.(1-p)^{n-x}[/tex]
In which [tex]C_{n,x}[/tex] is the number of different combinations of x objects from a set of n elements, given by the following formula.
[tex]C_{n,x} = \frac{n!}{x!(n-x)!}[/tex]
And p is the probability of X happening.
The expected value of the binomial distribution is:
[tex]E(X) = np[/tex]
The standard deviation of the binomial distribution is:
[tex]\sqrt{V(X)} = \sqrt{np(1-p)}[/tex]
75% of all young adults between the ages of 18-35 do not have a landline in their homes and only use a cell phone at home.
This means that [tex]p = 0.75[/tex]
(a) On average, how many young adults do not own a landline in a random sample of 100?
Sample of 100, so [tex]n = 100[/tex]
[tex]E(X) = np = 100(0.75) = 75[/tex]
(b) What is the standard deviation of probability of young adults who do not own a landline in a simple random sample of 100?
[tex]\sqrt{V(X)} = \sqrt{np(1-p)} = \sqrt{100(0.75)(0.25)} = 4.33[/tex]
(c) What is the proportion of young adults who do not own a landline?
The estimation, of 75% = 0.75.
(d) What is the probability that no one in a simple random sample of 100 young adults owns a landline?
This is P(X = 100), that is, all do not own. So
[tex]P(X = x) = C_{n,x}.p^{x}.(1-p)^{n-x}[/tex]
[tex]P(X = 100) = C_{100,100}.(0.75)^{100}.(0.25)^{0} = 3.2 \times 10^{-13}[/tex]
[tex]3.2 \times 10^{-13}[/tex] probability that no one in a simple random sample of 100 young adults owns a landline.
(e) What is the probability that everyone in a simple random sample of 100 young adults owns a landline?
This is P(X = 0), that is, all own. So
[tex]P(X = x) = C_{n,x}.p^{x}.(1-p)^{n-x}[/tex]
[tex]P(X = 0) = C_{100,0}.(0.75)^{0}.(0.25)^{100} = 6.2 \times 10^{-61}[/tex]
[tex]6.2 \times 10^{-61}[/tex] probability that everyone in a simple random sample of 100 young adults owns a landline.
(f) What is the distribution of the number of young adults in a sample of 100 who do not own a landline?
Binomial, with [tex]n = 100, p = 0.75[/tex]
(g) What is the probability that exactly half the young adults in a simple random sample of 100 do not own a landline?
This is P(X = 50). So
[tex]P(X = x) = C_{n,x}.p^{x}.(1-p)^{n-x}[/tex]
[tex]P(X = 50) = C_{100,50}.(0.75)^{50}.(0.25)^{50} = 4.5 \times 10^{-8}[/tex]
[tex]4.5 \times 10^{-8}[/tex] probability that exactly half the young adults in a simple random sample of 100 do not own a landline.

[tex]= 1-(\frac{34}{48}\times \frac{33}{47}\times \frac{32}{46}\times \frac{31}{45})\\\\= 1-(\frac{34}{1}\times \frac{11}{47}\times \frac{1}{23}\times \frac{31}{45})\\\\=1-(\frac{11594}{48647})\\\\=\frac{48647-11594}{48647}\\\\=\frac{37051}{48647}\approx 0.7616[/tex]
Determine the critical values for the confidence interval for the population standard deviation from the given values. Round your answers to three decimal places.
n = 12 and c = 0.9.
Answer:
The answer is "[tex]\chi^2_{L} = 4.575 \ and\ \chi^2_{U}= 19.675[/tex]"
Step-by-step explanation:
[tex]n=12\\\\\ c= 0.9[/tex]
Calculating the level of significance [tex](\alpha) = 1 -c[/tex]
[tex]=1-0.9\\\\=0.1[/tex]
Calculating the degrees of freedom:
[tex]df=n-1=12-1=11[/tex]
Calculating the critical value:
Applying the Chi-Square table, the critical values for the two-tailed test with a degree of freedom (11) for the significance level of [tex]\alpha = 0.1[/tex]:
[tex]\chi^2_{L} = 4.575 \\\\\chi^2_{U}= 19.675[/tex]
identify an equation in point slope form for the line perpendicular to y=5x=2 that passes through (-6,-1)
Answer:
y=-1/5x-11/5
Step-by-step explanation:
perpendicular, product of both gradients = -1
hence, slope = -1/5
y=-1/5x+c
sub y=-1, x=-6
-1=-1/5(-6)+c
c = -1-6/5=-11/5
y=-1/5x-11/5
A researcher records the repair cost for 27 randomly selected refrigerators. A sample mean of $60.52 and standard deviation of $23.29 are subsequently computed. Determine the 90% confidence interval for the mean repair cost for the refrigerators. Assume the population is approximately normal. Step 1 of 2 : Find the critical value that should be used in constructing the confidence interval. Round your answer to three decimal places.
Answer:
The critical value is [tex]T_c = 1.7056[/tex]
The 90% confidence interval for the mean repair cost for the refrigerators is ($52.875, $68.165).
Step-by-step explanation:
We have the standard deviation for the sample, which means that the t-distribution is used to solve this question.
The first step to solve this problem is finding how many degrees of freedom, we have. This is the sample size subtracted by 1. So
df = 27 - 1 = 26
90% confidence interval
Now, we have to find a value of T, which is found looking at the t table, with 26 degrees of freedom(y-axis) and a confidence level of [tex]1 - \frac{1 - 0.9}{2} = 0.95[/tex]. So we have T = 1.7056, which means that the critical value is [tex]T_c = 1.7056[/tex]
The margin of error is:
[tex]M = T\frac{s}{\sqrt{n}} = 1.7056\frac{23.29}{\sqrt{27}} = 7.645[/tex]
In which s is the standard deviation of the sample and n is the size of the sample.
The lower end of the interval is the sample mean subtracted by M. So it is 60.52 - 7.645 = $52.875.
The upper end of the interval is the sample mean added to M. So it is 60.52 + 7.645 = $68.165.
The 90% confidence interval for the mean repair cost for the refrigerators is ($52.875, $68.165).
