The state education commission wants to estimate the fraction of tenth grade students that have reading skills at or below the eighth grade level.
Step 1 of 2: Suppose a sample of 2845 tenth graders is drawn. Of the students sampled, 2276 read above the eighth grade level. Using the data, estimate the proportion of tenth graders reading at or below the eighth grade level. Enter your answer as a fraction or a decimal number rounded to three decimal places.
Step 2 of 2: Suppose a sample of 2845 tenth graders is drawn. Of the students sampled, 2276 read above the eighth grade level. Using the data, construct the 99% confidence interval for the population proportion of tenth graders reading at or below the eighth grade level. Round your answers to three decimal places.

Answers

Answer 1

Answer:

Step 1: The estimate the proportion of tenth graders reading at or below the eighth grade level is 0.2.

Step 2: The 99% confidence interval for the population proportion of tenth graders reading at or below the eighth grade level is (0.181, 0.219).

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].

Suppose a sample of 2845 tenth graders is drawn. Of the students sampled, 2276 read above the eighth grade level.

So 2845 - 2276 = 569 read below, and the estimate of the proportion of tenth graders reading at or below the eighth grade level is:

[tex]\pi = \frac{569}{2845} = 0.2[/tex], and the answer to step 1 is 0.2.

The sample size is [tex]n = 2845[/tex]

99% confidence level

So [tex]\alpha = 0.01[/tex], z is the value of Z that has a p-value of [tex]1 - \frac{0.01}{2} = 0.995[/tex], so [tex]Z = 2.575[/tex].  

The lower limit of this interval is:

[tex]\pi - z\sqrt{\frac{\pi(1-\pi)}{n}} = 0.2 - 2.575\sqrt{\frac{0.2*0.8}{2845}} = 0.181[/tex]

The upper limit of this interval is:

[tex]\pi + z\sqrt{\frac{\pi(1-\pi)}{n}} = 0.2 + 2.575\sqrt{\frac{0.2*0.8}{2845}} = 0.219[/tex]

The 99% confidence interval for the population proportion of tenth graders reading at or below the eighth grade level is (0.181, 0.219).

Answers

it’s D im pretty sure

The expression equivalent to x(y)^(2/9) is option D.  x [tex]\sqrt[9]{y^{2} }[/tex].

What are Expressions?

Expressions are mathematical statements which consist of two or more terms and terms are connected to each other using mathematical operators like addition, multiplication, subtraction and so on.

The given expression is x(y)^(2/9).

We have to find the equivalent expressions of this.

We can write the exponent 2/9 as 2 × 1/9.

So, x(y)^(2/9) = x(y)^(2 × 1/9)

We have the power of a power rule,

(xᵃ)ᵇ = xᵃᵇ

Using this rule,

(y)^(2 × 1/9) = (y²)^(1/9)

So, x(y)^(2/9) = x (y²)^(1/9)

Also, we have,

[tex]\sqrt[n]{x}[/tex] = [tex](x)^{\frac{1}{n}}[/tex]

So, (y²)^(1/9) = [tex]\sqrt[9]{y^{2} }[/tex]

x(y)^(2/9) = x [tex]\sqrt[9]{y^{2} }[/tex]

Hence the equivalent expression is  x [tex]\sqrt[9]{y^{2} }[/tex].

Answers

Answers:  x = 30 and y = 150

============================================================

Explanation:

For any cyclic quadrilateral (aka inscribed quadrilateral), the opposite angles are always supplementary.

One pair of such angles is A and C

A+C = 180

x+y = 180 is one equation to form

The other pair of supplementary angles is B and D

B+D = 180

y-45+2x+15 = 180

2x+y-30 = 180

2x+y = 180+30

2x+y = 210 is the other equation to form

--------------

So the system of equations we have is

[tex]\begin{cases}x+y = 180\\2x+y = 210\end{cases}[/tex]

Both equations involve 'y', with the same coefficient, so we can subtract straight down to eliminate this variable.

The x terms subtract to x-2x = -xThe y terms subtract to y-y = 0y = 0, so the y terms go awayThe right hand sides subtract to 180-210 = -30

We end up with -x = -30 which solves to x = 30

--------------

Once we know x, we can determine y by plugging it into any equation involving x,y and solving for y

Let's say we picked on the first equation

x+y = 180

30+y = 180

y = 180-30

y = 150

Or we could pick on the second equation

2x+y = 210

2(30) + y = 210

60+y = 210

y = 210-60

y = 150

Only one equation is needed. However, doing both like this shows that we get the same y value, and it helps confirm the answers.

Shaun is planting trees along his driveway, and he has 66 redwoods and 66 pine trees to plant in one row. What is the probability that he randomly plants the trees so that all 66 redwoods are next to each other and all 66 pine trees are next to each other

Answers

Answer:

0.0022 = 0.22% probability that he randomly plants the trees so that all 6 redwoods are next to each other and all 6 pine trees are next to each other.

Step-by-step explanation:

The trees are arranged, so the arrangements formula is used to solve this question. Also, a probability is the number of desired outcomes divided by the number of total outcomes.

Arrangements formula:

The number of possible arrangements of n elements is given by:

[tex]A_n = n![/tex]

Desired outcomes:

Two cases:

6 redwoods(6! ways) then the 6 pine trees(6! ways)

6 pine trees(6! ways) then the 6 redwoods(6! ways)

So

[tex]D = 2*6!*6![/tex]

Total outcomes:

12 trees, so:

[tex]D = 12![/tex]

What is the probability that he randomly plants the trees so that all 6 redwoods are next to each other and all 6 pine trees are next to each other?

[tex]p = \frac{D}{T} = \frac{2*6!*6!}{12!} = 0.0022[/tex]

0.0022 = 0.22% probability that he randomly plants the trees so that all 6 redwoods are next to each other and all 6 pine trees are next to each other.

A manufacturer of potato chips would like to know whether its bag filling machine works correctly at the 421 gram setting. It is believed that the machine is underfilling the bags. A 43 bag sample had a mean of 414 grams. Assume the population standard deviation is known to be 19.

Required:
a. Is there sufficient evidence at the 0.1 level that the bags are underfilled?
b. Find the P-value of the test statistic.

Answers

Answer:

a) The p-value of the test is 0.0078 < 0.1, which means that there is sufficient evidence at the 0.1 level that the bags are underfilled.

b) 0.0078.

Step-by-step explanation:

Question a:

A manufacturer of potato chips would like to know whether its bag filling machine works correctly at the 421 gram setting.

At the null hypothesis, it is tested if the mean is of 421, that is:

[tex]H_0: \mu = 421[/tex]

It is believed that the machine is underfilling the bags.

At the alternative hypothesis, it is tested if the mean is of less than 421, that is:

[tex]H_a: \mu < 421[/tex]

The test statistic is:

[tex]z = \frac{X - \mu}{\frac{\sigma}{\sqrt{n}}}[/tex]

In which X is the sample mean, [tex]\mu[/tex] is the value tested at the null hypothesis, [tex]\sigma[/tex] is the standard deviation and n is the size of the sample.

421 is tested at the null hypothesis:

This means that [tex]\mu = 421[/tex]

A 43 bag sample had a mean of 414 grams. Assume the population standard deviation is known to be 19.

This means that [tex]n = 43, X = 414, \sigma = 19[/tex]

Value of the test statistic:

[tex]z = \frac{X - \mu}{\frac{\sigma}{\sqrt{n}}}[/tex]

[tex]z = \frac{414 - 421}{\frac{19}{\sqrt{43}}}[/tex]

[tex]z = -2.42[/tex]

P-value of the test and decision:

The p-value of the test is the probability of finding a sample mean below 414, which is the p-value of z = -2.42.

Looking at the z-table, z = -2.42 has a p-value of 0.0078.

The p-value of the test is 0.0078 < 0.1, which means that there is sufficient evidence at the 0.1 level that the bags are underfilled.

b. Find the P-value of the test statistic.

As found above, the p-value of the test statistic is 0.0078.

A blue boat and a red boat are on the same side of a lake and are 18 miles apart. The blue boat is 30 miles from a lighthouse on the opposite side of the lake. The angle formed by the boats and the lighthouse, and whose vertex is at the blue boat, measures 120°. Find the distance from the red boat to the lighthouse. What is the angle made from the lighthouse to the two boats?

Answers

9514 1404 393

Answer:

red boat distance: 42 milesangle at lighthouse: 22°

Step-by-step explanation:

The Law of Cosines can be used to find the distance from the red boat to the lighthouse.

  b² = l² +r² -2lr·cos(B)

  b² = 18² +30² +2·18·30·cos(120°) = 1764

  b = √1764 = 42

The distance from the red boat to the lighthouse is 42 miles.

__

The angle at the lighthouse can be found using the law of sines.

  sin(L)/l = sin(B)/b

  L = arcsin(l/b·sin(B)) = arcsin(18/42·sin(120°)) ≈ 21.79°

The angle between the boats measured at the lighthouse is about 22°.

When [tex]n =2[/tex]

[tex]t_2 = (-1)^{2+1}(2^2 - 9)[/tex]

[tex]t_2 = (-1)^3 * (4 - 9)[/tex]

[tex]t_2 = 5[/tex]

[tex]t_3 = (-1)^{3+1}(3^2 - 9)[/tex]

[tex]t_3 = (-1)^{4}(9 - 9)[/tex]

[tex]t_3 = 0[/tex]

[tex]t_4 = (-1)^{4+1}(4^2 - 9)[/tex]

[tex]t_4 = (-1)^5(16 - 9)[/tex]

Step-by-step explanation:

The law of cosines can be used to find the resultant ground speed. In the attached diagram, the length of interest is OR. It will be found as ...

  OR² = OP² +PR² -2·OP·PR·cos(P)

  OR² = 130² +26² -2×130×26×cos(32°) ≈ 11843.19

  OR = √11843.19 ≈ 108.8

__

The angle POR can be found from the law of sines.

  sin(POR)/PR = sin(OPR)/OR

  sin(POR) = PR/OR×sin(32°) ≈ 0.12660

  ∠POR ≈ arcsin(0.12660) ≈ 7.27°

Then the bearing of the ground track of the airplane is 77° +7.27° = 84.27°.

The airplane is traveling at about 108.8 km/h on a bearing of 84.3°.

Answers

Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:

Each gallon of 7% milk contains 0.07 gallon of butterfat.

Each gallon of 4% milk contains 0.04 gallon of butterfat.

291 gallons of 6% milk contain 291×0.06 = 17.46 gallons of butterfat.

Let x be the number of gallons of 7% milk used. 291-x is the number of gallons of 4% milk used.

0.07x + 0.04(291-x) = 17.46

0.03x + 11.64 = 17.46

x = 200

Use 200 gallons of 7% and 91 gallons of 4%.
