According to a polling​ organization, 22% of adults in a large region consider themselves to be liberal. A survey asked 200 respondents to disclose their political​ philosophy: Conservative,​Liberal, And Moderate. Treat the results of the survey as a random sample of adults in this region. Do the survey results suggest the proportion is higher than that reported by the polling​organization? Use an alpha =0.05 level of significance.
75- Liberal
65- Moderate
61- Conservative

Answers

Answer 1

Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:

Using the proportion test

Null hypothesis: p <= 0.22

Alternative hypothesis: p > 0.22

Using the formula

z score = p - P /√ (P(1-P)/n)

Where p is 74/200= 0.37, P = 0.22, n = 200.

0.37-0.22 / √(0.22(1-0.22)/200)

0.15 / √(0.22(0.78)/200)

0.15 / √(0.1716/200)

0.15/ √0.000858

0.15 / 0.02929

= 5.1212

To help arrive at a conclusion, we have to find the p value, using a p value calculator at the 0.05 level of significant, the p value is less than 0.00001... Thus we would reject the null as there is sufficient statistical evidence to prove that the proportion is higher than that reported by the polling ​organization.

Answer:

[tex]({\frac{-9\sqrt{3} }{2}, 9/2) }[/tex]

Step-by-step explanation:

In rectangular coordinates, the form is:

(r·cosθ, r·sinθ)

In this instance:

Polar coordinates: (9, 150°). Use the coordinates above to solve for the rectangular coordinates.

(r · cos 150°, r· sin 150°)

(9 · cos 150°, 9· sin 150°)

cos 150° = -√3/2

sin 150° = 1/2

Plug these values into the equation:

(9 · (-√3/2), 9 · 1/2)

Multiply and simplify:

(-9√3/2, 9/2)

Therefore, the coordinates in rectangular form are:

A copy machine makes 104 copies in 3 minutes and 15 seconds. how many copies does it make per minute

Answers

Answer:

32 copies

Step-by-step explanation:

First convert 3 minutes and 15 seconds into minutes by converting 15 sec to min and add it to 3min

60 sec = 1min

15 sec = 15 / 60 × 1 min

= 0.25min

Add it to 3min

3min + 0.25min = 3.25 min

We use ratio and proportion

3.25min = 104 copies

1 min = 104× 1/ 3.25

= 104 / 3.25

= 32

The final answer is 32 copies

Hope this helps you.

Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:

3 min 15 sec = 3*60 + 15 = 180 + 15 = 195 seconds

In 195 seconds 104 copies are made

In one second, the number of copies made = [tex]\frac{104}{195}\\[/tex]

In 60 seconds, the number of copies made = [tex]\frac{104}{195}*60[/tex]

                                                                       = 32 copies

Ross needs to buy a countertop for a laundry room. He calculated the area to be 12 square feet. The actual area is 11.8 square feet. What is Ross's percentage error? a.1.02% b.1.69% c.20% d.98%

Answers

Answer:

b. 1.69

Step-by-step explanation:

So to solve this problem we need to simply find the percentage increase from 11.8 to 12 =>

to solve this we would do 12 - 11.8 = 0.2 --> 0.2 is our "difference in the increase" -->

now we divide this by our amt. which is 11.8 --> 0.2/11.8 = approx. 0.0169

--> finally multiply that by 100 which is simply moving the decimal places 2 places right giving us the final answer of 1.69

Hope this helps!

Answer:

B. 1.69%

Step-by-step explanation:

If Ross calculated the countertop for a laundry room to be 12 square feet but turns out to be actually 11.8 square feet, we need to find out how much percentage error Ross has made!

In order to solve this question,

1) We need to create proportions:

Ross' calculations              x

______________ =   _________

   actual area                   100

x represents the percentage error.

100 is the total percentage.

2) Now we plug in the numbers:

We plug in 12 for Ross' calculations. We plug in 11.8 for the actual area. So, it will look like this:

   12                x

______ = _______

   11.8           100

3) Time for cross multiplication:

12 times 100 is 1,200

11.8 times x is 11.8x

So,

1,200 = 11.8x

4) Now we divide:

1,200 divided by 11.8 equals to 101.69 %

5) We are not done! We still have to subtract:

101.69

-100.00

_______

    1.69

Finished!!

Our answer is 1.69%, which is B.

Triangle ABC is a right triangle. The sides measure AB = 3 and BC = 4. Use the Pythagorean theorem to find CA. A. CA = 25 B. CA = 2.5 C. CA = 20 D. CA = 5

Answers

Answer:

  CA = 5

Step-by-step explanation:

Since the sides are 3 and 4, we recognize this as a 3:4:5 right triangle, with CA = 5. Using the Pythagorean theorem confirms this:

  CA² = AB² +BC²

  CA² = 3² +4² = 9 +16 = 25

  CA = √25

  CA = 5

Answer:

D. CA = 5

Step-by-step explanation:

The Pythagorean Theorem states that given a right triangle with legs a and b and hypotenuse (longest side) c:

a² + b² = c²

Here, the legs are 3 and 4, so a = 3 and b = 4. Plug these in to find c:

a² + b² = c²

3² + 4² = c²

9 + 16 = c²

25 = c²

c = √25 = 5

The answer is thus D.

WHY CAN'T ANYONE HELP ME? Find an equation of the line described. Write the equation in​ slope-intercept form when possible. Through (-5,-3)​, perpendicular to the​ y-axis.

Answers

Answer:

y=-3

Step-by-step explanation:

If the line is perpendicular to the y- axis, that means that it must be a horizontal line. Any horizontal line must be in the form y=b. Since the y-value of the point is -3, the equation of the line must be y=-3

Answer:

y = -3

Step-by-step explanation:

A line perpendicular to the y-axis is a horizontal line.

The equation of a horizontal line is of the form

y = k,

where k is the y-coordinate of all points on the line. Since point (-5, -3) is on the line, then the y-coordinate of all points on the line is -3.

Answer: y = -3

Answers

Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:

Hello!

The given data corresponds to the variables

Y:  Annual Maintenance  Expense ($100s)

X: Weekly Usage  (hours)

n= 10

∑X= 253; ∑X²= 7347; [tex]\frac{}{X}[/tex]= ∑X/n= 253/10= 25.3 Hours

∑Y= 346.50; ∑Y²= 13010.75; [tex]\frac{}{Y}[/tex]= ∑Y/n= 346.50/10= 34.65 $100s

∑XY= 9668.5

a)

To estimate the slope and y-intercept you have to apply the following formulas:

[tex]b= \frac{sumXY-\frac{(sumX)(sumY)}{n} }{sumX^2-\frac{(sumX)^2}{n} } = \frac{9668.5-\frac{253*346.5}{10} }{7347-\frac{(253)^2}{10} }= 0.95[/tex]

[tex]a= \frac{}{Y} -b\frac{}{X} = 34.65-0.95*25.3= 10.53[/tex]

^Y= a + bX

^Y= 10.53 + 0.95X

b)

H₀: β = 0

H₁: β ≠ 0

α:0.05

[tex]F= \frac{MS_{Reg}}{MS_{Error}} ~~F_{Df_{Reg}; Df_{Error}}[/tex]

F= 47.62

p-value: 0.0001

To decide using the p-value you have to compare it against the level of significance:

If p-value ≤ α, reject the null hypothesis.

If p-value > α, do not reject the null hypothesis.

The decision is to reject the null hypothesis.

At a 5% significance level you can conclude that the average annual maintenance expense of the computer wheel alignment and balancing machine is modified when the weekly usage increases one hour.

b= 0.95 $100s/hours is the variation of the estimated average annual maintenance expense of the computer wheel alignment and balancing machine is modified when the weekly usage increases one hour.

a= 10.53 $ 100s is the value of the average annual maintenance expense of the computer wheel alignment and balancing machine when the weekly usage is zero.

c)

The value that determines the % of the variability of the dependent variable that is explained by the response variable is the coefficient of determination. You can calculate it manually using the formula:

[tex]R^2 = \frac{b^2[sumX^2-\frac{(sumX)^2}{n} ]}{[sumY^2-\frac{(sumY)^2}{n} ]} = \frac{0.95^2[7347-\frac{(253)^2}{10} ]}{[13010.75-\frac{(346.50)^2}{10} ]} = 0.86[/tex]

This means that 86% of the variability of the annual maintenance expense of the computer wheel alignment and balancing machine is explained by the weekly usage under the estimated model ^Y= 10.53 + 0.95X

d)

Without usage, you'd expect the annual maintenance expense to be $1053

If used 100 hours weekly the expected maintenance expense will be 10.53+0.95*100= 105.53 $100s⇒ $10553

If used 1000 hours weekly the expected maintenance expense will be $96053

It is recommendable to purchase the contract only if the weekly usage of the computer is greater than 100 hours weekly.

Members of a gymnastics team are traveling to a tournament. They must pay $250 for a bus plus $40 per athlete to register for the tournament. What is the average total cost per athlete if 20 gymnasts attend? Do not include the dollar sign ($) in your answer.

Answers

Answer:

1050 in total, 52.50 for each athlete

Step-by-step explanation:

We can start by writing an equation with x as the number of athletes

250+40x= Total cost

Now we can substitute 20 for x

250+40(20)

250+800

1050

The total cost is 1050

If you need the amount that each athlete is paying individually, just divide it by 20

1050/20=52.50

52.50 for each athlete

Functionally important traits in animals tend to vary little from one individual to the next within populations, possibly because individuals who deviate too much from the mean have lower fitness. If this is the case, does variance in a trait rise after it becomes less functionally important? Billet et al. (2012) investigated this question with the semicircular canals (SC) of the three-toed sloth (Bradypus variegatus). The authors proposed that since sloths don't move their heads much, the functional importance of SC is reduced, and may vary more than it does in more active animals. They obtained the following measurements of the ratio of the length to width of the anterior SC in 7 sloths. Assume this represents a random sample. In other, more active animals, the standard deviation of this ratio is 0.09.

Does this interval include the value obtained from other species? (answer yes or no in blank d)

Answers

Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:

Hello!

Given the variable

X:  Ratio of the length to width of the anterior semicircular canals (SC) of the three-toed sloth.

The researcher's claim is that the ratio of the SC of the sloths is more variable than in other animal species that are more active.

For more active species the standard deviation of the ratio is σ= 0.09

1)

To calculate the sample standard deviation you have to calculate the sample variance first:

[tex]S^2= \frac{1}{n-1} [sumX^2-\frac{(sumX)^2}{n} ][/tex]

n=7; ∑X= 8.91; ∑X²= 11.8599

[tex]S^2= \frac{1}{6} [11.5899-\frac{(8.91)^2}{7} ]= 0.0287= 0.029[/tex]

S= √S²= √0.029= 0.169≅ 0.17

The sample standard deviation of the ratio is 0.17

2)

The parameter of interest is the population standard deviation. To calculate a confidence interval for the standard deviation of a population you have to estimate the population variance first. Then calculate the square root of both limits of the interval for the variance to obtain the interval for the standard deviation.

The statistic to use is the Chi-Square and the formula for the interval is:

[tex][\frac{(n-1)S^2}{X^2_{n-1;1-\alpha /2}} ;\frac{(n-1)S^2}{X^2_{n-1;\alpha /2}} ][/tex]

[tex]X^2_{n-1;\alpha /2}= X^2_{6; 0.025}= 1.2373[/tex]

[tex]X^2_{n-1;1-\alpha /2}= X^2_{6; 0.975}= 14.449[/tex]

[tex][\frac{6*0.029}{14.449} ;\frac{6*0.029}{1.2373} ]\\[/tex]

[0.0120; 0.1406]

Using a 95% confidence level you'd expect the interval [0.0120; 0.1406] to include the true value of the population variance of the ratio of the length to width of the anterior semicircular canals (SC) of the three-toed sloths.

Now you have to calculate the square root of each limit:

[√0.0120; √0.1406]

[0.1097; 0.3750]

Using a 95% confidence level you'd expect the interval [0.1097; 0.3750] to include the true value of the population standard deviation of the ratio of the length to width of the anterior semicircular canals (SC) of the three-toed sloths.

3)

As you can see the calculated interval doesn't include the value obtained for the other species.

Suppose that a population is known to be normally distributed with £ = 2400 and € = 210. Of a random sample of size n = 8 is selected, calculate the probability that the sample mean will exceed 2,500.

Answers

Answer:

0.0885 = 8.85% probability that the sample mean will exceed 2,500.

Step-by-step explanation:

To solve this question, we need to understand the normal probability distribution and the central limit theorem.

Normal probability distribution

When the distribution is normal, we use the z-score formula.

In a set with mean [tex]\mu[/tex] and standard deviation [tex]\sigma[/tex], the zscore 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 pvalue, we get the probability that the value of the measure is greater than X.

Central Limit Theorem

The Central Limit Theorem estabilishes that, for a normally distributed random variable X, with mean [tex]\mu[/tex] and standard deviation [tex]\sigma[/tex], the sampling distribution of the sample means with size n can be approximated to a normal distribution with mean [tex]\mu[/tex] and standard deviation [tex]s = \frac{\sigma}{\sqrt{n}}[/tex].

For a skewed variable, the Central Limit Theorem can also be applied, as long as n is at least 30.

For a proportion p in a sample of size n, the sampling distribution of the sample proportion will be approximately normal with mean [tex]\mu = p[/tex] and standard deviation [tex]s = \sqrt{\frac{p(1-p)}{n}}[/tex]

In this question:

[tex]\mu = 2400, \sigma = 210, n = 8, s = \frac{210}{\sqrt{8}} = 74.25[/tex]

Calculate the probability that the sample mean will exceed 2,500.

This is 1 subtracted by the pvalue of Z when X = 2500. So

[tex]Z = \frac{X - \mu}{\sigma}[/tex]

By the Central Limit Theorem:

[tex]Z = \frac{X - \mu}{s}[/tex]

[tex]Z = \frac{2500 - 2400}{74.25}[/tex]

[tex]Z = 1.35[/tex]

[tex]Z = 1.35[/tex] has a pvalue of 0.9115

1 - 0.9115 = 0.0885

0.0885 = 8.85% probability that the sample mean will exceed 2,500.

To determine if a particular predictor in a regression analysis is statistically significant, which statistic should one interpret

Answers

Answer:

The test statistic used to determine whether a particular predictor in a regression analysis is statistically significant is:

[tex]t=\frac{\beta_{i}}{S.E._{\beta_{i}}}[/tex]

Step-by-step explanation:

The general form of a regression equation is:

[tex]y=\alpha +\beta_{1}x_{1}+\beta_{2}x_{2}+...+\beta_{n}x_{n}[/tex]

Here,

α = y-intercept

βi = regression coefficients, (i = 1, 2, ..., n)

A regression analysis is performed to determine whether the predictor variables are statistically significant or not.

The output of the regression analysis consists of two tables.

One is the regression output and the other is the ANOVA table.

The regression output table is used to display which predictor variables are statistically significant and which are not.

The test statistic used to determine whether a particular predictor in a regression analysis is statistically significant is:

[tex]t=\frac{\beta_{i}}{S.E._{\beta_{i}}}[/tex]

And the ANOVA table displays overall regression analysis.

The F-test statistic is used to for the overall regression analysis.

Thus, the test statistic used to determine whether a particular predictor in a regression analysis is statistically significant is:

[tex]t=\frac{\beta_{i}}{S.E._{\beta_{i}}}[/tex]

What would be the angle of elevation of a tree from the ground, if the height of the

tree and its shadow are equal in length?

Answers

Answer:

45°

Step-by-step explanation:

The diagram for this question has been attached to this response. Please check.

The angle of elevation is the angle between a horizontal line from a viewer and the line of sight to an object being viewed which is above the horizontal line.

From the diagram;

θ is the angle of elevation

x = height of the tree

y = length of the shadow of the tree = x

Therefore,

tanθ = [tex]\frac{x}{y}[/tex]           [Remember that y = x? Then substitute into the equation]

tanθ = [tex]\frac{x}{x}[/tex]

tanθ = 1

θ = tan⁻¹(1)

θ = 45°

Therefore, the angle of elevation is 45°

Answers

Answer:

From the analysis W1=W2.

where k= spring constant

           x= change on length of spring

Hence for W1

Given data

solve p varies directly as the square of s and inversely as r, when s=6,r=3,and p=48 find the value of p when s =10and r=5​

Answers

Answer:

see explanation

Step-by-step explanation:

Given that p varies directly as s² and inversely as r then the equation relating them is

p = [tex]\frac{ks^2}{r}[/tex] ← k is the constant of variation

To find k use the condition when s = 6, r = 3 and p = 48, that is

48 = [tex]\frac{6^2k}{3}[/tex] ( multiply both sides by 3 to clear the fraction

144 = 36k ( divide both sides by 36 )

4 = k , thus

p = [tex]\frac{4s^2}{r}[/tex] ← equation of variation

When s = 10 and r = 5 , then

p = [tex]\frac{4(10)^2}{5}[/tex] = [tex]\frac{400}{5}[/tex] = 80

Please help me find the sign of f

Answers

Answer: B. f is always negative on the interval

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

Explanation:

-1/5 = -0.2

Pick any number for x that will make the interval -0.2 < x < 2 to be true. I find x = 0 to be easiest.

Plug it into f(x)

f(x) = (5x+1)(4x-8)(x+6)

f(0) = (5(0)+1)(4(0)-8)(0+6)

f(0) = (1)(-8)(6)

f(0) = -48

We get a negative result.

So we can rule out choice A which says that f is always positive. Either f is always negative on this interval, or it's a mix of being positive and negative.

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

Note that the roots of f(x) are -1/5, 2 and -6. This is from solving f(x) = 0

Use the zero product property to solve (5x+1)(4x-8)(x+6) to find the three roots mentioned.

The roots of -1/5 and 2 form the boundary of the interval mentioned at the top of the problem. There are no roots in between -1/5 and 2, so this means that f(x) stays entirely negative on this interval. There is no way f(x) becomes positive on this interval because it would have to cross over the x axis, thus forming another root. But again there are no roots between -1/5 and 2.

A graph confirms we have the correct answer. Check out the image attached below. Note the portion from x = -0.2 to x = 2 is entirely below the x axis.

Robert wants to arrange the books for statistics, calculus, geometry, algebra, and trigonometry on a shelf. In how many arrangements can he keep them on the shelf such that the algebra and trigonometry books are not together?

Answers

Answer: 72 arrangements

Step-by-step explanation:

The books are:

Statistics,  calculus, geometry, algebra, and trigonometry.

So we have 5 books.

We want that algebra and trigonometry are not together.

Suppose that we have 5 positions:

Now, we can start with algebra in the first position.

Now, we have 3 positions for trigonometry (3rd, 4th and 5th).

Now, once those two books are in position, we have 3 other positions and 3 other books, so for the first selection we have 3 options, for the second position we have 2 options, and for the last option we have 1 option.

The number of combinations is equal to the number of options in each selection:

3*(3*2*1) = 18

Now, if Algebra is in the second place, then for trigonometry we have only 2 possible options (4th and 5th)

and for the other 3 books again we have 3*2*1 combinations:

the total number of combinations is:

2*(3*2*1) = 12

If algebra is in the 3rd position, trigonometry has 2 options (1st and 5th)

For the other 3 books, we have 3*2*1 combinations.

The total number of combinations is:

(3*2*1)*2 = 12

in the fourth position is the same as the second position, so here we have again 12 combinations.

For the fifth position is the same as for the first position, so we have 18 combinations.

The total number of combinations is:

C = 18 + 12 +12 +12 +18 = 72

Rafael is saving money to buy a game. So far he has saved $30, which is five-sixths of the total cost of the game. How much does the game cost?

Answers

Answer:

$36

Step-by-step explanation:

30 is 5/6 of the game, so we can think that 1/6 is equal to 6, since 5(6) is 30.

If we add another sixth, we get 36, which will be the total cost of the game.

It is 36 if I’m not wrong
