Answers

Answer 1

Answer:

(a): The 95% confidence interval is (46.4, 53.6)

(b): The 95% confidence interval is (47.9, 52.1)

(c): Larger sample gives a smaller margin of error.

Step-by-step explanation:

Given

[tex]n = 30[/tex] -- sample size

[tex]\bar x = 50[/tex] -- sample mean

[tex]\sigma = 10[/tex] --- sample standard deviation

Solving (a): The confidence interval of the population mean

Calculate the standard error

[tex]\sigma_x = \frac{\sigma}{\sqrt n}[/tex]

[tex]\sigma_x = \frac{10}{\sqrt {30}}[/tex]

[tex]\sigma_x = \frac{10}{5.478}[/tex]

[tex]\sigma_x = 1.825[/tex]

The 95% confidence interval for the z value is:

[tex]z = 1.960[/tex]

Calculate margin of error (E)

[tex]E = z * \sigma_x[/tex]

[tex]E = 1.960 * 1.825[/tex]

[tex]E = 3.577[/tex]

The confidence bound is:

[tex]Lower = \bar x - E[/tex]

[tex]Lower = 50 - 3.577[/tex]

[tex]Lower = 46.423[/tex]

[tex]Lower = 46.4[/tex] --- approximated

[tex]Upper = \bar x + E[/tex]

[tex]Upper = 50 + 3.577[/tex]

[tex]Upper = 53.577[/tex]

[tex]Upper = 53.6[/tex] --- approximated

So, the 95% confidence interval is (46.4, 53.6)

Solving (b): The confidence interval of the population mean if mean = 90

First, calculate the standard error of the mean

[tex]\sigma_x = \frac{\sigma}{\sqrt n}[/tex]

[tex]\sigma_x = \frac{10}{\sqrt {90}}[/tex]

[tex]\sigma_x = \frac{10}{9.49}[/tex]

[tex]\sigma_x = 1.054[/tex]

The 95% confidence interval for the z value is:

[tex]z = 1.960[/tex]

Calculate margin of error (E)

[tex]E = z * \sigma_x[/tex]

[tex]E = 1.960 * 1.054[/tex]

[tex]E = 2.06584[/tex]

The confidence bound is:

[tex]Lower = \bar x - E[/tex]

[tex]Lower = 50 - 2.06584[/tex]

[tex]Lower = 47.93416[/tex]

[tex]Lower = 47.9[/tex] --- approximated

[tex]Upper = \bar x + E[/tex]

[tex]Upper = 50 + 2.06584[/tex]

[tex]Upper = 52.06584[/tex]

[tex]Upper = 52.1[/tex] --- approximated

So, the 95% confidence interval is (47.9, 52.1)

Solving (c): Effect of larger sample size on margin of error

In (a), we have:

[tex]n = 30[/tex]     [tex]E = 3.577[/tex]

In (b), we have:

[tex]n = 90[/tex]    [tex]E = 2.06584[/tex]

Notice that the margin of error decreases when the sample size increases.

Jane needs to buy mulch to cover a circular garden
whose dimensions are shown in the figure. The cost of
the mulch is $32.52 per square yard. Find the amount
of mulch she will need to the nearest square yard and
find the cost of the mulch.

Answers

Answer:

$3089.4

Step-by-step explanation:

A circle is a locus of a point such that its distance from a point known as the center is always constant.

The area of a circle is given by the formula:

Area = πr²; where r is the radius of the circle.

From the image attached, we can see that the garden is circular with a radius of 5.5 yard. Hence:

Amount of mulch needed to cover garden = area of garden = πr² = π(5.5)²  = 95 yd²

Since mulch cost $32.52 per square yard, hence:

Cost of mulch needed = $32.52 per yd² * 95 yd² = $3089.4

ABD is a right triangle (Angle ADB is a right angle)

Using the Pythagoras Theorem,
AB^2 = AD^2 + BD^2
AB^2 = 9^2 + 12^2
AB^2 = 81 + 144
AB^2 = 225
AB = 15

In triangle ABD,
sin(Angle A) = BD/AB
sin(Angle A) = 12/15
Angle A = sin^(-1)[12/15]
Angle A ≈ 53.13 degrees

In triangle ABC,
cos(Angle A) = AB/AC
cos(53.13) = 15/AC
AC = 15/cos(53.13)
AC ≈ 25

P = $1600, R = 8%, x = 16
The amount in the account after 16 years is approximately

Answers

Answer: $3648

Step-by-step explanation:

Firstly, we have to calculate the interest which will be:

= Principal × Rate × Time

= $1600 × 8% × 16

= $1600 × 0.08 × 16

= $2048

Therefore, the amount in the account after 16 years will be:

= Principal + Interest.

= $1600 + $2048

= $3648

Suppose x is a normally distributed random variable with a mean of 12 and a standard deviation of 3. The probability that x equals 19.62 is _____.

Answers

Answer:

The probability that x equals 19.62 is 0

Step-by-step explanation:

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.

In the normal probability distribution, the probability of an exact value, that is, P(X = x) is 0. Thus, the probability that x equals 19.62 is 0

passes under Westminster Blvd, Maria
enters the 405 Freeway at Westminster Blvd
and heads north at 60 miles per hour. If both
cars maintain their average speeds, how long
will it take Mary to catch up with Susan?

Answers

Answer:

If both cars maintain their average speeds, it will take 12 hours for Mary to catch up with Susan.

Step-by-step explanation:

Since Susan drives north on the 405 Freeway at 50 miles per hour, and two hours after Susan passes under Westminster Blvd, Maria enters the 405 Freeway at Westminster Blvd and heads north at 60 miles per hour, if both cars maintain their average speeds, to determine how long will it take Mary to catch up with Susan the following calculation must be performed:

Hour 1 = 50

Hour 2 = 100

Hour 3 = 150 - 60

Hour 4 = 200 - 120

Hour 5 = 250 - 180

Hour 6 = 300 - 240

Hour 7 = 350 - 300

Hour 8 = 400 - 360

Hour 9 = 450 - 420

Hour 10 = 500 - 480

Hour 11 = 550 - 540

Hour 12 = 600 - 600

Therefore, if both cars maintain their average speeds, it will take 12 hours for Mary to catch up with Susan.

Let's divide the shaded region into two areas:

area 1: x = 0 ---> x = 2

ares 2: x = 2 ---> x = 4

In area 1, we need to find the area under g(x) = x and in area 2, we need to find the area between g(x) = x and f(x) = (x - 2)^2. Now let's set up the integrals needed to find the areas.

Area 1:

[tex]A\frac{}{1} = ∫g(x)dx = ∫xdx = \frac{1}{2} {x}^{2} | \frac{2}{0} = 2[/tex]

Area 2:

[tex]A\frac{}{2} = ∫(g(x) - f(x))dx[/tex]

[tex]= ∫(x - {(x - 2)}^{2} )dx[/tex]

[tex] = ∫( - {x}^{2} + 5x - 4)dx[/tex]

[tex]= ( - \frac{1}{3}{x}^{3} + \frac{5}{2} {x}^{2} - 4x) | \frac{4}{2}[/tex]

[tex] = 2.67 - ( - 0.67) = 3.34[/tex]

Suppose aggressive behavior is the dependent variable in a regression model and the other variables are independent variables. Is there evidence of extreme Multicollinearity

Answers

Answer and explanation:

Multicollinearity happens when multiple independent variables are correlated and therefore it is hard to determine which independent variable has the most impact or is most significantly affecting the dependent variable. This could be a source of confusion as the coefficients become less reliable.

Extreme multicollinearity occurs when there is exaggerated standard errors or increased variance of coefficient estimates.

A local police chief claims that about 51% of all drug related arrests are ever prosecuted. A sample of 900 arrests shows that 47% of the arrests were prosecuted. Is there sufficient evidence at the 0.01 level to refute the chief's claim? State the null and alternative hypotheses for the above scenario.

Answers

Answer:

The null hypothesis is [tex]H_0: p = 0.51[/tex].

The alternate hypothesis is [tex]H_1: p \neq 0.51[/tex].

The p-value of the test is 0.0164 > 0.01, which means that there is not sufficient evidence at the 0.01 level to refute the chief's claim.

Step-by-step explanation:

A local police chief claims that about 51% of all drug related arrests are ever prosecuted

At the null hypothesis, we test if the proportion is of 51%, that is:

[tex]H_0: p = 0.51[/tex]

At the alternate hypothesis, we test if the proportion is different from 51%, that is:

[tex]H_1: p \neq 0.51[/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.

0.51 is tested at the null hypothesis:

This means that [tex]\mu = 0.51, \sigma = \sqrt{0.51*0.49}[/tex]

A sample of 900 arrests shows that 47% of the arrests were prosecuted.

This means that [tex]n = 900, X = 0.47[/tex]

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

[tex]z = \frac{0.47 - 0.51}{\frac{\sqrt{0.51*0.49}}{\sqrt{900}}}[/tex]

[tex]z = -2.4[/tex]

P-value of the test:

Probability that the sample proportion differs from 0.51 by at least 0.04, which is P(|z|>2.4), which is 2 multiplied by the p-value of Z = -2.4.

Looking at the z-table, the Z = -2.4 has a p-value of 0.0082.

2*0.0082 = 0.0164.

The p-value of the test is 0.0164 > 0.01, which means that there is not sufficient evidence at the 0.01 level to refute the chief's claim.

The required equation of the line is that passing through the point (3, -1) is y = -x/3.

Given that,
To determine the equation of the line that passes through the origin and a point (3, -1).

What is the slope of the line?

The slope of the line is a tangent angle made by line with horizontal. i.e. m =tanx where x in degrees.

Here,
Since the line passes from the origin and a point (3, -1)
So, the slope of the line is given by,
m = (y₂ - y₁) /  (x₂ - x₁)

Substitute the respective values in the above equation,
m = -1 + 0 / 3 - 0
m = -1/3,
Now the point-slope form of the equation of a line is,

y - y₁ = m (x - x₁)
Substitute the respective values in the above equation,
y + 1 = -1/3 (x - 3)
y = -x/3

Thus, the required equation of the line is that passing through the point (3, -1) is y = -x/3.
