1. The U.S. Department of Agriculture reported a random sample of 36 Americans consumed an average of 69 gallons of carbonated beverages per year. Assume that the population standard deviation is 20 gallons. Find the 95% confidence interval for the number of gallons of carbonated beverages consumed per year by Americans.(round the final answer to 3 decimal places.)

Answers

Answer 1

Answer:

Hence, the confidence interval is [tex](63.517,74.483)[/tex] gallons.

Given :

Sample size[tex]=36[/tex]

Sample mean [tex]=69[/tex] gallons

Standard deviation [tex]=20[/tex] gallons

So, the standard error [tex]=\frac{20}{\sqrt{36}}=20/6=3.33[/tex]

Confidence level [tex]=95\%[/tex]

To find :

The [tex]95\%[/tex] confidence interval for the number of gallons of carbonated beverages consumed per year by Americans.

Explanation :

[tex]\because[/tex] Confidence interval [tex]=(\text{Sample mean}-\text{margin error},\text{Sample mean}+\text{margin error})[/tex]

Margin error [tex]=Z_{\frac{\alpha}{2}}\times\frac{\sigma}{\sqrt{n}}[/tex]

Here, [tex]\alpha=1-95\%=1-0.95[/tex]

      [tex]\Rightarrow \alpha=0.05\Rightarrow \frac{\alpha}{2}=0.025[/tex]

    [tex]Z_{\frac{\alpha}{2}}=Z_{0.025}=1.645[/tex] from the [tex]z-[/tex]table.

So, Margin error [tex]=Z_{\frac{\alpha}{2}}\times\frac{\sigma}{\sqrt{n}}[/tex]

                         [tex]=1.645\times\frac{20}{6}=1.645\times3.33[/tex]

                        [tex]=5.483[/tex]

Therefore, the confidence interval is:

   [tex](69-5.483,69+5.483)[/tex]

[tex]=(63.517,74.483)[/tex] gallons.

Answers

Answer:

The annual interest rate of return during his investment was 12.28%.

Step-by-step explanation:

Since Julio purchased 1,700 shares of a certain stock for $ 23,750 including commissions, and I have sold the shares 3 years later and received $ 32,500 after deducting commissions, to find the effective annual rate of return on his investment over the 3-year period the following calculation  must be performed:

23,750 = 100

32,500 = X

32,500 x 100 / 23,750 = X

3,250,000 / 23,750 = X

136.84 = X

(136.84 - 100) / 3 = X

36.84 / 3 = X

12.28 = X

Therefore, the annual interest rate of return during his investment was 12.28%.

A manufacturer has 5,634 pens to divide into packs of 4 pens. The manufacturer makes as many packs as possible.

How many packs of pens does the manufacturer make, and how many pens are left over?

Answers

Answer:

1,408 packs can be made, and 2 pens will be left out.

Step-by-step explanation:

Given that a manufacturer has 5,634 pens to divide into packs of 4 pens, and the manufacturer makes as many packs as possible, to determine how many packs of pens does the manufacturer make, and how many pens are left over, the following must be done calculation:

5.634 / 4 = X

1,408.5 = X

5,634 - (1,408 x 4) = X

5.634 - 5.632 = X

2 = X

Therefore, 1,408 packs can be made, and 2 pens will be left out.

Answer: 1,408 packs can be made and 2 will be left out

9(9 + x) = 15²

9(9 + x) = 225 ( divide both sides by 9 )

An additional amount of money added to borrowed money only on principal is what kind
of interest?
-Interest rate
-Terms
-Simple Interest
-Compound interest

Answers

Answer:

simple interest

Step-by-step explanation:

An additional amount of money added to borrowed money only on the principal could be simple interest.

How to calculate a simple interest amount?

If the initial amount (also called as principal amount) is P, and the interest rate is R% annually, and it is left for T years for that simple interest, then the interest amount earned is given by:

[tex]I = \dfrac{P \times R \times T}{100}[/tex]

Since, the initial amount (also called as principal amount) is P, and the interest rate is R% per unit of time, it is left for T unit of time for that compound interest.

we can conclude that the additional amount of money added to borrowed money only on principal is simple interest.

The locus of points in a plane 1 unit from the point (0,0)

Answers

Answer:

x² + y² = 1

Step-by-step explanation:

A circle is the locus of a point such that its distance from a fixed point (known as the origin) is always constant. The general equation of a circle is given as:

[tex](x-h)^2+(y-k)^2=r^2[/tex]

Where (h, k) is the center of the circle and r is the radius of the circle.

Given that the plane is 1 unit from the point (0,0). Therefore the radius of the circle is 1 unit and the center of the circle is (0, 0). Therefore the equation of the circle is:

[tex](x-0)^2+(y-0)^2=1^2\\\\x^2+y^2=1[/tex]

Answers

Answer:

at least 14 friends

Step-by-step explanation:

without the inequality it'd be 15x + 190 = 400

but since you want it to be at least 400 you change the = to the greater than or equal to sign

15x + 190 = 400 * subtract 190 from both sides*

15x = 210 *divide both sides by 15*

Answer:

[tex](b)\ Pr = \frac{9}{20}[/tex]

[tex](c)\ E(Orange) = 100[/tex]

[tex](d)\ E(Orange) = 62.5[/tex]

Step-by-step explanation:

Solving (a): Theoretical probability of green or yellow

Here, we consider the spinner itself

From the attached image, we have:

[tex]n= 5[/tex] --- i.e. 5 sections

[tex]Yellow = 1[/tex]

[tex]Green = 1[/tex]

So, the probability is:

[tex]Pr = P(Yellow)\ or\ P(Green)[/tex]

[tex]Pr = \frac{Yellow}{n} + \frac{Green}{n}[/tex]

[tex]Pr = \frac{1}{5} + \frac{1}{5}[/tex]

Take LCM

[tex]Pr = \frac{1+1}{5}[/tex]

[tex]Pr = \frac{2}{5}[/tex]

Solving (b): Experimental probability of green or yellow

Here, we consider the result of the experiment

From the attached image, we have:

[tex]n= 40[/tex] --- i.e. 40 spins

[tex]Yellow = 12[/tex]

[tex]Green = 6[/tex]

So, the probability is:

[tex]Pr = P(Yellow)\ or\ P(Green)[/tex]

[tex]Pr = \frac{Yellow}{n} + \frac{Green}{n}[/tex]

[tex]Pr = \frac{12}{40} + \frac{6}{40}[/tex]

Take LCM

[tex]Pr = \frac{12+6}{40}[/tex]

[tex]Pr = \frac{18}{40}[/tex]

Simplify

[tex]Pr = \frac{9}{20}[/tex]

Solving (c): Expectation of orange outcomes in a spin of 500 times, theoretically.

Here, we consider the spinner itself

From the attached image, we have:

[tex]n= 5[/tex] --- i.e. 5 sections

[tex]Orange = 1[/tex]

So, the probability of having an outcome of orange in 1 spin is:

[tex]Pr = P(Orange)[/tex]

[tex]Pr = \frac{Orange}{n}[/tex]

[tex]Pr = \frac{1}{5}[/tex]

In 500 spins, the expectation is:

[tex]E(Orange) = Pr * 500[/tex]

[tex]E(Orange) = \frac{1}{5} * 500[/tex]

[tex]E(Orange) = 100[/tex]

Solving (c): Expectation of orange outcomes in a spin of 500 times, base on experiments.

Here, we consider the spinner itself

From the attached image, we have:

[tex]n= 40[/tex] --- i.e. 40 spins

[tex]Orange = 5[/tex]

So, the probability of having an outcome of orange is:

[tex]Pr = P(Orange)[/tex]

[tex]Pr = \frac{Orange}{n}[/tex]

[tex]Pr = \frac{5}{40}[/tex]

[tex]Pr = \frac{1}{8}[/tex]

In 500 spins, the expectation is:

[tex]E(Orange) = Pr * 500[/tex]

[tex]E(Orange) = \frac{1}{8} * 500[/tex]

[tex]E(Orange) = 62.5[/tex]

Use the quadratic formula to solve x2 – 3x - 2 = 0.

Answers

Answer:

x = 2 , 1

Step-by-step explanation:

Answer:

2.5 or 3.5

Step-by-step explanation:

The quadratic formula is [tex]x = -b +/- \frac{\sqrt{b^2 + 4ac}}{2a}[/tex] .

a, b, and c are determined by the terms in the formula ax^2 + bx + c

They gave you the equation x^2 - 3x - 2, which fits that formula. a is 1, b is -3, and c is -2. So plug those values into the equation:

[tex]x = -(-3) +/- \frac{\sqrt{(-3)^2 + 4(1)(-2)}}{2(1)}[/tex]

[tex]x = 3 +/- \frac{\sqrt{9 -8}}{2}[/tex]

[tex]x = 3 +/- \frac{\sqrt{1}}{2}[/tex]

[tex]x = 3 +/- \frac{1}{2}[/tex]

So x is 3 plus or minus -1/2. 3 plus -1/2 is 2.5

3 minus -1/2 is 3.5

So the 2 possible x values are 2.5 and 3.5.

In a sample of 42 water specimens taken from a construction site, 26 contained detectable levels of lead. Construct a 95% condence interval for the proportion of water specimens that contain detectable levels of lead

Answers

Answer:

The 95% confidence interval for the proportion of water specimens that contain detectable levels of lead is (0.472,0.766).

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 zscore that has a pvalue of [tex]1 - \frac{\alpha}{2}[/tex].

In a sample of 42 water specimens taken from a construction site, 26 contained detectable levels of lead.

This means that [tex]n = 42, \pi = \frac{26}{42} = 0.619[/tex]

95% confidence level

So [tex]\alpha = 0.05[/tex], z is the value of Z that has a pvalue 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}} = 0.619 - 1.96\sqrt{\frac{0.619*0.381}{42}} = 0.472[/tex]

The upper limit of this interval is:

[tex]\pi + z\sqrt{\frac{\pi(1-\pi)}{n}} = 0.619 + 1.96\sqrt{\frac{0.619*0.381}{42}} = 0.766[/tex]

The 95% confidence interval for the proportion of water specimens that contain detectable levels of lead is (0.472,0.766).
