Given:
A random survey of 30 students found that 17 played a musical instrument.
Total number of students = 450
To find:
Estimated number of students who do not play an instruments.
Solution:
A random survey of 30 students found that 17 played a musical instrument.
Let E be the event that student play an instrument.
So, probability that a student plays an instrument is
[tex]P(E)=\dfrac{17}{30}[/tex]
Probability that a student do not play an instrument is
[tex]P(E')=1-P(E)[/tex]
[tex]=1-\dfrac{17}{30}[/tex]
[tex]=\dfrac{13}{30}[/tex]
Now, number of students who do not play an instruments is
[tex]450\times P(E')=450\times \dfrac{13}{30}[/tex]
[tex]450\times P(E')=195[/tex]
Therefore, 195 students do not play an instrument.
Insurance companies are interested in knowing the population percent of drivers who always buckle up before riding in a car. When designing a study to determine this population proportion, what is the minimum number of drivers you would need to survey to be 95% confident that the population proportion is estimated to within 0.05?
If it was later determined that it was important to be more than 95% confident and a new survey was commissioned, how would that affect the minimum number you would need to survey? Why?
a. If the confidence level is increased, then the sample size would need to increase because a higher level of confidence increases the margin of error.
b. If the confidence level is increased, then the sample size would need to decrease because increasing the sample size would create an even larger interval.
c. If the confidence level is increased, then the sample size would need to decrease because we would like the proportion of people who buckle up to be around 50%.
d. If the confidence level is increased, then the sample size would not be affected.
Answer:
The value is [tex]n = 384 [/tex]
The correct option is a
Step-by-step explanation:
From the question we are told that
The margin of error is E = 0.05
From the question we are told the confidence level is 95% , hence the level of significance is
[tex]\alpha = (100 - 95 ) \%[/tex]
=> [tex]\alpha = 0.05[/tex]
Generally from the normal distribution table the critical value of is
[tex]Z_{\frac{\alpha }{2} } = 1.96[/tex]
Generally since the sample proportion is not given we will assume it to be
[tex]\^ p = 0.5[/tex]
Generally the sample size is mathematically represented as
[tex]n = [\frac{Z_{\frac{\alpha }{2} }}{E} ]^2 * \^ p (1 - \^ p ) [/tex]
=> [tex]n = [\frac{ 1.96 }{0.05} ]^2 *0.5 (1 - 0.5) [/tex]
=> [tex]n = 384 [/tex]
Generally the margin of error is mathematically represented as
[tex]E = Z_{\frac{\alpha }{2} } * \frac{\sigma }{\sqrt{n} }[/tex]
Generally if the level of confidence increases, the critical value of [tex]\frac{\alpha }{2}[/tex] increase and from the equation for margin of error we see the the critical value varies directly with the margin of error , hence the margin of error will increase also
So If the confidence level is increased, then the sample size would need to increase because a higher level of confidence increases the margin of error.

Yes, the sample means are all less than 10. Yes, the variation of the sample means is small. No, the variation of the sample means is too great.
Answer:
Answer is C
Step-by-step explanation:
There is not enough samples.
Answer:
Yes, the variation of the sample means is small.
Step-by-step explanation:
Determine whether the Mean Value Theorem can be applied to f on the closed interval [a, b]. If the Mean Value Theorem can be applied, find all values of c in the open interval (a, b) such that f '(c) = f (b) − f (a) b − a . If the Mean Value Theorem cannot be applied, explain why not.
f(x) = x^3 + 2x, [-1,1]
Answer:
There is a value of [tex]c[/tex] in (-1, 1), [tex]c = 0.577[/tex].
Step-by-step explanation:
Let [tex]f(x) = x^{3}+2\cdot x[/tex] for [tex]x \in[-1,1][/tex], we need to prove that [tex]f(x)[/tex] is continuous and differentiable to apply the Mean Value Theorem. Given that [tex]f(x)[/tex] is a polynomical function, its domain comprises all real numbers and therefore, function is continuous.
If [tex]f(x)[/tex] is differentiable, then [tex]f'(x)[/tex] exists for all value of [tex]x[/tex]. By definition of derivative, we obtain the following expression:
[tex]f'(x) = \lim_{h \to 0} \frac{f(x+h)-f(x)}{h}[/tex]
[tex]f'(x) = \lim_{h \to 0} \frac{(x+h)^{3}+2\cdot (x+h)-x^{3}-2\cdot x}{h}[/tex]
[tex]f'(x) = \lim_{h \to 0} \frac{x^{3}+3\cdot x^{2}\cdot h+3\cdot x\cdot h^{2}+h^{3}+2\cdot x+2\cdot h-x^{3}-2\cdot x}{h}[/tex]
[tex]f'(x) = \lim_{h \to 0} \frac{3\cdot x^{2}\cdot h+3\cdot x\cdot h^{2}+h^{3}+2\cdot h}{h}[/tex]
[tex]f'(x) = \lim_{h \to 0} 3\cdot x^{2}+ \lim_{h \to 0} 3\cdot x \cdot h+ \lim_{h \to 0} h^{2}+ \lim_{h \to 0} 2[/tex]
[tex]f'(x) = 3\cdot x^{2}+2[/tex] (Eq. 2)
The derivative of a cubic function is quadratic function, which is also a polynomic function. Hence, the function is differentiable at the given interval.
According to the Mean Value Theorem, the following relationship is fulfilled:
[tex]f'(c) = \frac{f(1)-f(-1)}{1-(-1)}[/tex] (Eq. 3)
If we know that [tex]f(-1) = -3[/tex], [tex]f(1) = 3[/tex] and [tex]f'(c) = 3\cdot c^{2}+2[/tex], then we expand the definition as follows:
[tex]3\cdot c^{2}+2 = 3[/tex]
[tex]3\cdot c^{2} = 1[/tex]
[tex]c = \sqrt{\frac{1}{3} }[/tex]
[tex]c \approx 0.577[/tex]
There is a value of [tex]c[/tex] in the interval (-1, 1), [tex]c = 0.577[/tex].
-413.4=-15.9n please help
Answer:
[tex]\boxed {n = 26}[/tex]
Step-by-step explanation:
Solve for [tex]n[/tex]:
[tex]-413.4 = -15.9n[/tex]
-Switch sides:
[tex]-15.9n = -413.4[/tex]
-Divide both sides by [tex]15.9[/tex] and expand by multiplying both numerator and denominator by [tex]10[/tex]:
[tex]\frac{-15.9n}{-15.9} = \frac{-413.4}{-15.9}[/tex]
[tex]n = \frac{-4134}{-159}[/tex]
-Divide [tex]-4134[/tex] and [tex]-159[/tex]:
[tex]n = \frac{-4134}{-159}[/tex]
[tex]\boxed {n = 26}[/tex]
Therefore, the value of [tex]n[/tex] is [tex]26[/tex].

An integer is 15 more than 2 times another. If the product of the two integers is -27, then find the integers
Answer:
The required integers are x=3 and y= -9
Step-by-step explanation:
Let one the integers be x and y
An integer is 15 more than 2 times another: x=15+2y
product of the two integers is -27: x*y=27
[tex]x=15+2y ---eq(1)\\x*y=-27----eq(2)[/tex]
Solving both equations to find values of x and y
Putting value of x from equation 1 in equation 2
[tex](15+2y)*y=-27\\15y+2y^2=-27\\Rearranging:\\2y^2+15y-27=0[/tex]
This can be solved using quadratic formula:
[tex]$y=\frac{-b\pm\sqrt{b^2-4ac}}{2a}$[/tex]
Putting values and finding factors
[tex]$y=\frac{-(15)\pm\sqrt{(15)^2-4(2)(-27)}}{2(2)}$\\$y=\frac{-(15)\pm\sqrt{225+216}}{4}$\\$y=\frac{-(15)\pm\sqrt{441}}{4}$\\$y=\frac{-(15)\pm21}{4}$\\$y=\frac{-(15)+21}{4} \ or \ y=\frac{-(15)-21}{4}$\\$y=\frac{6}{4} \ or \ y=\frac{-36}{4}$\\$y=\frac{3}{2} \ or \ y=-9$[/tex]
Since y is integer so, we consider only y= -9
The value of x will be:
[tex]x*y=-27\\x*(-9)=-27\\x=\frac{-27}{-9} \\x=3[/tex]
So, the value of x is x=3
The required integers are x=3 and y= -9
help me (a) The total cost of rent is determined by recording x months of rent at $1400 per month, plus a $150 application fee.
Answer:
$1400x + $150
Step-by-step explanation:
Let the total cost of rent used for a month be $1400 plus a $150 application fee.
This means that;
Total cost (1 month) = $1400(1) + $150 = $1550
TO calculate the cost for x months, we will simply multiply x with the cost of rent for 1 month as shown.
The cost of rent for x month = 1400x * $150
The cost of rent for x month = $1400x + $150 (application fee are paid only once)

Answer:
4. y = -1/2x + 5
5. y = -1/3x + 3
6. y = 1
Step-by-step explanation:
For #4:
Because these lines are parallel, we know that they will have the same slope.
To get b, or the y-intercept, I just started at the point (4,4) and used the slope to work backwards to the y-axis. This is really not the best way to do it (especially with big numbers) but it works in a pinch. Also, I forgot the better way :/
For #5:
These lines are perpendicular. That means that the slopes are reciprocals of the other and, when multiplied with each other, the answer will be -1.
The reciprocal of 3 is -1/3.
To get the y-intercept, I did the same as above.
For #6:
x = 2 is a vertical line. To make a line perpendicular to it, that is, to make a line that intersects with it at 90°, the answer line will have to be horizontal.
That means that our answer is y = ?
We know that the line passes through a very specific point (2,1), and the line provided in the question already gives us the x value of this point. All we have to do is set y equal to the y value.
So, y = 1.
I hope this helps!
