Step-by-step explanation:
1. If 15% of adults in a certain country work from home, what is the probability that fewer than 42 out of a random sample of 350 adults will work from home? (Round your answer to 3 decimal places)
2. Suppose we want to estimate the proportion of teenagers (aged 13-18) who are lactose intolerant. If we want to estimate this proportion to within 4% at the 95% confidence level, how many randomly selected teenagers must we survey?
Answer:
(1) 0.058
(2) 601
Step-by-step explanation:
(1)
According to the Central limit theorem, if from an unknown population large samples of sizes n > 30, are selected and the sample proportion for each sample is computed then the sampling distribution of sample proportion follows a Normal distribution.
The mean of this sampling distribution of sample proportion is:
[tex]\mu_{\hat p}=p\\[/tex]
The standard deviation of this sampling distribution of sample proportion is:
[tex]\sigma_{\hat p}=\sqrt{\frac{p(1-p)}{n}}[/tex]
As the sample size is large, i.e. n = 350 > 30, the Central limit theorem can be used to approximate the sampling distribution of sample proportion of adults in a certain country work from home.
Compute the probability that fewer than 42 out of a random sample of 350 adults will work from home:
Sample proportion: [tex]\hat p=\frac{42}{350}=0.12[/tex]
[tex]P(\hat p < 0.12)=P(\frac{\hat p-\mu_{\hat p}}{\sigma_{\hat p}}<\frac{0.12-0.15}{\sqrt{\frac{0.15(1-0.15)}{350}}})\\\\=P(Z<-1.57)\\\\=0.05821\\\\\approx 0.058[/tex]
Thus, the probability that fewer than 42 out of a random sample of 350 adults will work from home is 0.058.
(2)
The (1 - α)% confidence interval for population proportion is:
[tex]CI=\hat p\pm z_{\alpha/2}\cdot\sqrt{\frac{\hat p(1-\hat p)}{n}}[/tex]
The margin of error for this interval is:
[tex]MOE= z_{\alpha/2}\cdot\sqrt{\frac{\hat p(1-\hat p)}{n}}[/tex]
Given:
MOE = 0.04
Confidence level = 95%
Assume that the sample proportion is 50%.
The critical z-value for 95% confidence level is 1.96.
Compute the required sample size as follows:
[tex]MOE= z_{\alpha/2}\cdot\sqrt{\frac{\hat p(1-\hat p)}{n}}[/tex]
[tex]n=[\frac{z_{\alpha/2}\cdot\sqrt{\hat p(1-\hat p)}}{MOE}]^{2}\\\\=[\frac{1.96\times \sqrt{0.50(1-0.50)}}{0.04}]^{2}\\\\=600.25\\\\\approx 601[/tex]
Thus, the required sample size is 601.
1. Using the normal approximation to the binomial, it is found that there is a 0.05 = 5% probability that fewer than 42 out of a random sample of 350 adults will work from home.
2. Solving the equation for the margin of error of a confidence interval of proportions, it is found that we must survey 601 randomly selected teenagers.
Question 1:
Normal Probability Distribution
In a normal distribution 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]
It 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, which is the percentile of X.The binomial distribution is the probability of x successes on n trials, with p probability of a success on each trial. It can be approximated to the normal distribution with [tex]\mu = np, \sigma = \sqrt{np(1-p)}[/tex].In this problem:
15% work from home, thus [tex]p = 0.15[/tex].Sample of 350 adults, thus [tex]n = 350[/tex]Then, for the approximation:
[tex]\mu = np = 350(0.15) = 52.5[/tex]
[tex]\sigma = \sqrt{np(1-p)} = \sqrt{350(0.15)(0.85)} = 6.68[/tex]
Using continuity correction, the probability is [tex]P(X < 42 - 0.5) = P(X < 41.5)[/tex], which is the p-value of Z when X = 41.5. So:
[tex]Z = \frac{X - \mu}{\sigma}[/tex]
[tex]Z = \frac{41.5 - 52.5}{6.68}[/tex]
[tex]Z = -1.65[/tex]
[tex]Z = -1.65[/tex] has a p-value of 0.05.
0.05 = 5% probability that fewer than 42 out of a random sample of 350 adults will work from home.
Question 2:
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]\alpha[/tex], we have the following confidence interval of proportions.
[tex]\pi \pm z\sqrt{\frac{\pi(1-\pi)}{n}}[/tex]
z is the z-score that has a p-value of [tex]\frac{1+\alpha}{2}[/tex].The margin of error is:
[tex]M = z\sqrt{\frac{\pi(1-\pi)}{n}}[/tex]
In this problem:
Within 4%, thus [tex]M = 0.04[/tex].We do not have an estimate for the true proportion, thus [tex]\pi = 0.5[/tex].95% confidence level, thus z has a p-value of [tex]\frac{1 + 0.95}{2} = 0.975[/tex], thus z = 1.96.We have to solve for n, then:
[tex]M = z\sqrt{\frac{\pi(1-\pi)}{n}}[/tex]
[tex]0.04 = 1.96\sqrt{\frac{0.5(0.5)}{n}}[/tex]
[tex]0.04\sqrt{n} = 1.96(0.5)[/tex]
[tex]\sqrt{n} = \frac{1.96(0.5)}{0.04}[/tex]
[tex](\sqrt{n})^2 = (\frac{1.96(0.5)}{0.04})^2[/tex]
[tex]n = 600.25[/tex]
Rounding up:
We must survey 601 randomly selected teenagers.

Solving the equation of the form a cos 0 + b sin 0 = c
Question;
Solve the equation 4 sin 20 - 3 cos 20 = 3, for 0° ses 360°
Answer:
θ = 36.9°, 90°, 216.9°, or 270°
Step-by-step explanation:
4 sin 2θ − 3 cos 2θ = 3
Use double angle formulas:
4 (2 sin θ cos θ) − 3 (cos²θ − sin²θ) = 3
8 sin θ cos θ − 3 cos²θ + 3 sin²θ = 3
Use Pythagorean identity:
8 sin θ cos θ − 3 cos²θ + 3 sin²θ = 3 (sin²θ + cos²θ)
8 sin θ cos θ − 3 cos²θ + 3 sin²θ = 3 sin²θ + 3 cos²θ
8 sin θ cos θ − 6 cos²θ = 0
2 cos θ (4 sin θ − 3 cos θ) = 0
2 cos θ = 0
θ = 90° or 270°
4 sin θ − 3 cos θ = 0
4 sin θ = 3 cos θ
tan θ = 3/4
θ = 36.9° or 216.9°

|a-b| = b-a when a<b
Q2
104159/33000
Step-by-step explanation:
Q1
If a<b then a-b will always be negative. To get the absolute value, we can take -(a-b) = -a+b = b-a.
Q2
Let x = 3.12789789789...
We isolate the repeating decimal to start after the decimal, so we multiply by 100.
100x = 312.789789789...
We want to multiply by 10 for each digit that repeats (in this case 3), to get the repeating part to the left of the decimal.
100000x = 312789.789789
Subtracting the two...
x(100000-100) = 312789.789789 - 312.789789
99900x = 312477
x = 312477/99000 = 104159/33000

If on a scale drawing 100 feet are represented by 15 inches, then a scale of 1/2 inches represents how many feet
Answer:
3 1/3 feet
Step-by-step explanation:
100 feet : 15 inches
3 1/3 feet : 1/2 inch
Answer:
[tex]3\frac{1}{3}[/tex] feet
Step-by-step explanation:
Inches : Feet = 15 : 100
Let 'x' be the feet required to find
15 : 100 :: 1/2 : x
Product of extremes = product of means
15 * x = 100 * (1/2)
15 * x = 50
x = 50/15
x = 10/3
x = [tex]3\frac{1}{3}[/tex]

S

180°
120°
100°
Answer:
140°
Step-by-step explanation:
Since we know that a circle is 360 degrees, and we are given three angles, we can subtract what we know from 360 to get ∠PTQ:
360 = 120 + 60 + 40 + ∠PTQ
360 = 220 + ∠PTQ
-220 -220
140 = ∠PTQ
∠PTQ = 140°

What is the constant of proportionality in the equation y=2xy
Answer:
2 is the constant of proportionality in the equation y = 2x .
Step-by-step explanation:
Definition of constant of proportionality
When two variables are directly proportional to each others .
Let us assume that u and v .
u \propto vu∝v
Than the equation becomes u= kv
Where k is called the constant of proportionality .
Thus in the question x and y are proportional variables .
i.e
y \propto xy∝x
y = kx
Where k is called the constant of proportionality .
Compare the equation y = kx with y=2x .
Thus
k = 2
Therefore 2 is the constant of proportionality in the equation y = 2x

How do you do this question?
Answer:
∑ₙ₌₀°° 8 (-1)ⁿ x⁴ⁿ⁺¹ / (9ⁿ (2n)!)
Step-by-step explanation:
Start with the Maclaurin series for cos x.
cos x = ∑ₙ₌₀°° (-1)ⁿ x²ⁿ / (2n)!
Substitute ⅓ x².
cos (⅓ x²) = ∑ₙ₌₀°° (-1)ⁿ (⅓ x²)²ⁿ / (2n)!
cos (⅓ x²) = ∑ₙ₌₀°° (-1)ⁿ (⅓)²ⁿ x⁴ⁿ / (2n)!
cos (⅓ x²) = ∑ₙ₌₀°° (-1)ⁿ x⁴ⁿ / (9ⁿ (2n)!)
Multiply by 8x.
8x cos (⅓ x²) = ∑ₙ₌₀°° 8x (-1)ⁿ x⁴ⁿ / (9ⁿ (2n)!)
8x cos (⅓ x²) = ∑ₙ₌₀°° 8 (-1)ⁿ x⁴ⁿ⁺¹ / (9ⁿ (2n)!)

The sum of digits in a two-digit number is 14. If you double the reversed number and add the result to the original number, the sum would be 222. Find the original number
Answer:
Original number is 86
Step-by-step explanation:
Original: 10x + y
Double reversed: 2(10y + x)
Constraints:
x + y = 14 ===> x = 14 - y
2(10y + x) + 10x + y = 222 ===> 21y + 12x = 222
Substitution to find y:
21y + 12x = 222
21y + 12(14 - y) = 222
21y + 168 - 12y = 222
9y + 168 = 222
9y = 54
y = 6
Substitution to find x:
x = 14 - y
x = 14 - 6
x = 8
Original: 10x + y
10(8) + (6)
80 + 6
86
