Eagle Outfitters is a chain of stores specializing in outdoor apparel and camping gear. They are considering a promotion that involves mailing discount coupons to all their credit card customers. This promotion will be considered a success if more than 10% of those receiving the coupons use them. Before going national with the promotion, coupons were sent to a sample of 100 credit card customers.
a. Develop hypotheses that can be used to test whether the population proportion of those
who will use the coupons is sufficient to go national.
b. The file Eagle contains the sample data. Develop a point estimate of the population
proportion.
c. Use αα= .05 to conduct your hypothesis test. Should Eagle go national with the
promotion?

Answers

Answer:

a) Alternative hypothesis: the use of the coupons is isgnificantly higher than 10%.

Null hypothesis: the use of the coupons is not significantly higher than 10%.

The null and alternative hypothesis can be written as:

[tex]H_0: \pi=0.1\\\\H_a:\pi>0.1[/tex]

b) Point estimate p=0.13

c) At a significance level of 0.05, there is not enough evidence to support the claim that the proportion of coupons use is significantly higher than 10%.

Eagle should not go national with the  promotion as there is no evidence it has been succesful.

Step-by-step explanation:

The question is incomplete.

The sample data shows that x=13 out of n=100 use the coupons.

This is a hypothesis test for a proportion.

The claim is that the proportion of coupons use is significantly higher than 10%.

Then, the null and alternative hypothesis are:

[tex]H_0: \pi=0.1\\\\H_a:\pi>0.1[/tex]

The significance level is 0.05.

The sample has a size n=100.

The point estimate for the population proportion is the sample proportion and has a value of p=0.13.

[tex]p=X/n=13/100=0.13[/tex]

The standard error of the proportion is:

[tex]\sigma_p=\sqrt{\dfrac{\pi(1-\pi)}{n}}=\sqrt{\dfrac{0.1*0.9}{100}}\\\\\\ \sigma_p=\sqrt{0.0009}=0.03[/tex]

Then, we can calculate the z-statistic as:

[tex]z=\dfrac{p-\pi-0.5/n}{\sigma_p}=\dfrac{0.13-0.1-0.5/100}{0.03}=\dfrac{0.025}{0.03}=0.833[/tex]

This test is a right-tailed test, so the P-value for this test is calculated as:

[tex]\text{P-value}=P(z>0.833)=0.202[/tex]

As the P-value (0.202) is greater than the significance level (0.05), the effect is  not significant.

The null hypothesis failed to be rejected.

At a significance level of 0.05, there is not enough evidence to support the claim that the proportion of coupons use is significantly higher than 10%.

The head of maintenance at XYZ Rent-A-Car believes that the mean number of miles between services is 3639 3639 miles, with a variance of 145,161 145,161 . If he is correct, what is the probability that the mean of a sample of 41 41 cars would differ from the population mean by less than 126 126 miles

Answers

Answer:

96.6% probability that the mean of a sample would differ from the population mean by less than 126 miles

Step-by-step explanation:

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

A reminder is that the standard deviation is the square root of the variance.

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.

In this question:

[tex]\mu = 3639, \sigma = \sqrt{145161} = 381, n = 41, s = \frac{381}{\sqrt{41}} = 59.5[/tex]

Probability that the mean of the sample would differ from the population mean by less than 126 miles

This is the pvalue of Z when X = 3639 + 126 = 3765 subtracted by the pvalue of Z when X = 3639 - 126 = 3513. So

X = 3765

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

By the Central Limit Theorem

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

[tex]Z = \frac{3765 - 3639}{59.5}[/tex]

[tex]Z = 2.12[/tex]

[tex]Z = 2.12[/tex] has a pvalue of 0.983

X = 3513

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

[tex]Z = \frac{3513 - 3639}{59.5}[/tex]

[tex]Z = -2.12[/tex]

[tex]Z = -2.12[/tex] has a pvalue of 0.017

0.983 - 0.017 = 0.966

96.6% probability that the mean of a sample would differ from the population mean by less than 126 miles

There is a set of 100 obserations with a mean of 46 and a standard deviation of 0. What is the value of smallest obserstion in a set?

Answers

Answer:

Solution = 46

Step-by-step explanation:

I believe you meant standard deviation. Standard deviation is defined as the variation of the data set, or the differences between the values in this set. In order for the standard deviation to be 0, all values should be the same.

Now if the mean is 46, the smallest possible number of each value in the data set should be 46 as well.  This is considering the mean is the average of the values, and hence any number of values in the data set being 46 will always have a mean of 46. Let me give you a demonstration -

[tex]Ex. [ 46, 46, 46 ], and, [46, 46, 46, 46, 46]\\Average = 46 + 46 + 46 / 3 = 46,\\Average = 46 + 46 + 46 + 46 + 46 / 5 = 46[/tex]

As you can see, the average is 46 in each case. This proves that a data set consisting of n number of values in it, each value being 46, or any constant value for that matter, always has a mean similar to the value inside the set, in this case 46. And, that the value of the smallest standard deviation is 46.

Find a parabola with equation y = ax2 + bx + c that has slope 5 at x = 1, slope −11 at x = −1, and passes through the point (2, 18).

Answers

By "slope" I assume you mean slope of the tangent line to the parabola.

For any given value of x, the slope of the tangent to the parabola is equal to the derivative of y :

[tex]y=ax^2+bx+c\implies y'=2ax+b[/tex]

The slope at x = 1 is 5:

[tex]2a+b=5[/tex]

The slope at x = -1 is -11:

[tex]-2a+b=-11[/tex]

We can already solve for a and b :

[tex]\begin{cases}2a+b=5\\-2a+b=-11\end{cases}\implies 2b=-6\implies b=-3[/tex]

[tex]2a-3=5\implies 2a=8\implies a=4[/tex]

Finally, the parabola passes through the point (2, 18); that is, the quadratic takes on a value of 18 when x = 2:

[tex]4a+2b+c=18\implies2(2a+b)+c=10+c=18\implies c=8[/tex]

So the parabola has equation

[tex]\boxed{y=4x^2-3x+8}[/tex]

Using function concepts, it is found that the parabola is: [tex]y = 4x^2 - 3x + 14[/tex]

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

The parabola is given by:

[tex]y = ax^2 + bx + c[/tex]

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

Slope 5 at x = 1 means that [tex]y^{\prime}(1) = 5[/tex], thus:

[tex]y^{\prime}(x) = 2ax + b[/tex]

[tex]y^{\prime}(1) = 2a + b[/tex]

[tex]2a + b = 5[/tex]

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

Slope -11 at x = -1 means that [tex]y^{\prime}(-1) = -11[/tex], thus:

[tex]-2a + b = -11[/tex]

Adding the two equations:

[tex]2a - 2a + b + b = 5 - 11[/tex]

[tex]2b = -6[/tex]

[tex]b = -\frac{6}{2}[/tex]

[tex]b = -3[/tex]

And

[tex]2a - 3 = 5[/tex]

[tex]2a = 8[/tex]

[tex]a = \frac{8}{2}[/tex]

[tex]a = 4[/tex]

Thus, the parabola is:

[tex]y = 4x^2 - 3x + c[/tex]

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

It passes through the point (2, 18), which meas that when [tex]x = 2, y = 18[/tex], and we use it to find c.

[tex]y = 4x^2 - 3x + c[/tex]

[tex]18 = 4(2)^2 - 3(4) + c[/tex]

[tex]c + 4 = 18[/tex]

[tex]c = 14[/tex]

Thus:

[tex]y = 4x^2 - 3x + 14[/tex]

Answer:

p(A|B) = 2/3

Step-by-step explanation:

Given p(A)=0.30,p(B)=0.40and p(A∩B) =0.20,then p(A/B) is expressed as shown:

p(A|B) = p(A∩B)/p(A)

p(A|B) means B is independent and A depends on B.

In your problem P(A)=0.65, P(A∩B) =0.1

p(A|B) = 0.2/0.30

p(A|B) = 2/10 * 10/3

The LCL  is  [tex]LCL \approx 0[/tex]

Step-by-step explanation:

From the question we are told that  

     The quantity of each sample is  n =  30

     The  average of defective products is  [tex]p = 0.025[/tex]

Now  the upper control limit [UCL] is  mathematically represented as

       

      [tex]UCL = p + 3 \sqrt{\frac{p(1-p)}{n} }[/tex]

substituting values  

      [tex]UCL = 0.025 + 3 \sqrt{\frac{0.025 (1-0.025)}{30} }[/tex]

      [tex]UCL = 0.054[/tex]

The  upper control limit (LCL) is mathematically represented as

       [tex]LCL = p - 3 \sqrt{\frac{p(1-p)}{n} }[/tex]

substituting values  

      [tex]LCL = 0.025 - 3 \sqrt{\frac{0.025 (1-0.025)}{30} }[/tex]

       [tex]LCL = -0.004[/tex]

b. Solve using this vormula.

x= (-b ±[tex]\sqrt{b^2 - 4ac}[/tex])/2a

you will get two asnwrs, both are correct.

evaluate -x+4 when x = -2

Answers

Answer:

6

Step-by-step explanation:

=> -x+4

Given that x = -2

=> -(-2)+4

=> 2+4

=> 6

Answer:

6

Step-by-step explanation:

You just have to input -2 into the statement and then solve

= -(-2) + 4

= 2+ 4

= 6

Cytoplasm fills the cell membrane that en Line closes it and functions as a barrier between cells. The membrane serves as the outer tissue, (5) and any compound that may destroy the cell has to penetrate it to reach the cytoplasm, Some types of organisms are termed colonial because they represent loosely assembled groups of structurally similar and unfunctional cells. Colonial organisms maintain a symbiotic relationship within their particular environments. Unlike colonial organisms, almost all species of animals and plants are multicellular and (10) include various types of specialized or somatic cells, each with us own nucleus, genetic code, and RNA. The overall size of a multicellular body is contingent on the total number of cells that comprise it, not the size of individual cells. TI1e simples! multicellular animals are hy dras, sponges, and jellyfish, which have well-defined tissues, a cellular nucleus, and an ele ment of cell functions. Sponges have a few specialized cells but largely resemble colonial or- (15) ganisms that can readily form a new individual group. If the cells of a sponge are separated, they rejoin and continue as a newly formed colonial organism. 22. How many cells do me simplest organisms contain?
