g According to the 2010 census, 30% of American adults were worried about global warming. A Gallup poll (assumed to be a random sample) was conducted between March 6 and March 9, 2014 on a random sample of 1048 adults. (a) Describe the sampling distribution of the sample proportion of American adults worried about global warming for a random sample of 1048 American adults. (b) (3 points) Compute the probability that the sample proportion from a random sample of 1048 adults who are worried about global warming is above 35%. (c) (2 points) Based on your answers above, do you think it would be unusual to get 40% of 1048 randomly selected American adults being worried about global warming

Answers

Answer 1

Answer:

a) By the Central Limit, the sampling distribution of the sample proportion of American adults worried about global warming is approximately normal with mean 0.3 and standard deviation 0.0142.

b) 0.0002 = 0.02% probability that the sample proportion from a random sample of 1048 adults who are worried about global warming is above 35%.

c) Yes, as 35% already has a z-score above 2, which means that any value above 35%, including 40%, would be unusual.

Step-by-step explanation:

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

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.

If the z-score is lower than -2 or greater than 2, the measure X is considered unusual.

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]

30% of American adults were worried about global warming.

This means that [tex]p = 0.3[/tex]

(a) Describe the sampling distribution of the sample proportion of American adults worried about global warming for a random sample of 1048 American adults.

Sample of 1048 means that [tex]n = 1048[/tex]

The mean is [tex]\mu = p = 0.3[/tex]

The standard deviation is [tex]s = \sqrt{\frac{p(1-p)}{n}} = \sqrt{\frac{0.3*0.7}{1048}} = 0.0142[/tex]

By the Central Limit, the sampling distribution of the sample proportion of American adults worried about global warming is approximately normal with mean 0.3 and standard deviation 0.0142.

(b) (3 points) Compute the probability that the sample proportion from a random sample of 1048 adults who are worried about global warming is above 35%.

This is 1 subtracted by the pvalue of Z when X = 0.35. So

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

By the Central Limit Theorem

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

[tex]Z = \frac{0.35 - 0.3}{0.0142}[/tex]

[tex]Z = 3.53[/tex]

[tex]Z = 3.53[/tex] has a pvalue of 0.9998

1 - 0.9998 = 0.0002

0.0002 = 0.02% probability that the sample proportion from a random sample of 1048 adults who are worried about global warming is above 35%.

(c) (2 points) Based on your answers above, do you think it would be unusual to get 40% of 1048 randomly selected American adults being worried about global warming

Yes, as 35% already has a z-score above 2, which means that any value above 35%, including 40%, would be unusual.

Find the surface area and volume of the prism​

Answers

Answer:

I only know the first one.

The surface area of the prism is 900 cm2

Step-by-step explanation:

To solve the surface area, we need to find the area of the SURFACE not the inside of the cube. Lets do the rectangles first.

28 x 13 = 364

28 x 5 = 140

28 x 12 = 336

   1 1

   336

+  140

   364

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

  8 4 0

Now lets do the triangles.

Remember! To find the area of a triangle, you have to do Base x Height x 1/2 because it's half a rectangle.

(The triangles have the same area)

12 x 5 x 1/2 = 30

12 x 5 x 1/2 = 30

  30

+ 30

--------

 60

The last step is to add the areas of the triangles and the rectangles.

   1

   840

+    60

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

   900 cm2

The answer is 900cm2

This Is not copy pasted, I actually put in all this effort.

знайдіть розв'язок системи лінійних рівнянь 10x-6y = 18 9x+6y=39

Answers

Answer:

(-21, -38)

Step-by-step explanation:

Given the simultaneous equation

10x-6y = 18 ... 1

9x+6y=39 ...2

Using the Elimination method

Subtract

10x - 9x = 18 - 39

x = -21

substitute x = -21 into 1;

From 1:

10x-6y = 18

10(-21)-6y = 18

-210 - 6y = 18

-6y = 18+210

-6y = 228

y = 228/-6

y =-38

Hence the solution to the system is (-21, -38)

if sinθ = A, find cos(π/2-θ)

(using trigonometric identities to fine the value)

Answers

Answer:

Cos(π/2 - θ) = A

Step-by-step explanation:

We know that:

Sin(θ) = A

And we want to find the value of Cos(π/2 - θ)

Here we can use the cosine relationship:

Cos(a - b) = Cos(a)*Cos(b) + Sin(A)*Sin(B)

Then:

Cos(π/2 - θ) = Cos(π/2)*Cos(θ ) + Sin(π/2)*Sin(θ)

We know that:

Cos(π/2) = 0

Sin(π/2) = 1

Then:

Cos(π/2 - θ) = Cos(π/2)*Cos(θ ) + Sin(π/2)*Sin(θ) = 0*Cos(θ ) + 1*Sin(θ)

                    = 1*Sin(θ) = A

Cos(π/2 - θ) = A

3. [tex]\tan(\frac{x}{2}) + \cos x \tan(\frac{x}{2}) = \sin x[/tex]

Answers

Seems like there is a correction in the first question (RHS is tanx.tany)

(i) For convenience: let tanx = a ; tany = b

Thus, tanx + tany = a + b

Moreover, cotx = 1/tanx = 1/a ; coty = 1/b

Thus,

cotx + coty = 1/a + 1/b = (a + b)/ab

Hence,

=> (tanx + tany)/(cotx + coty)

=> (a + b) / { (a + b)/ab }

=> ab(a + b)/(a + b)

=> ab => tanx.tany , proved.

(ii) For convenience: let sinx = a ; cosx = b

As we know, sin²x + cos²x = 1 => a²+b²=1

=> (a³ + b³)/(a + b)

=> (a + b)(a² + b² - ab) / (a + b)

=> (a² + b² - ab)

=> 1 - ab => 1 - sinx.cosx , proved

(iii): let x/2 = A

=> tan(x/2) + cosx.tan(x/2)

=> tanA + cos2A.tanA

=> tanA [1 + cos2A]

=> tanA (2cos²A) {1+cos2A = 2cos²A}

=> (sinA/cosA) (2cos²A)

=> sinA (2cosA)

=> 2sinAcosA

=> sin2A

=> sin2(x/2)

=> sinx proved

Letting x/2 = A is not mandatory. I did it to decease words*(in a line).

Indentities used:

• sin²A + cos²A = 1

• (a³ + b³) = (a + b)(a² + b² - 1)

• 1 + cosA = 2 cos²(A/2)

• tanA = sinA/cosA.

• 2sinAcosA = sin2A

An automobile engineer is redesigning a conical chamber that was originally specified to be 12 inches long with a circular base of diameter
5.7 inches. In the new design, the chamber is scaled by a factor of 1.5.
The volume of the original chamber is
V cubic inches. This i
v cubic inches less than the volume of the new
chamber.

Answers

Answer:

the original volume is lesser than the new volume by 242.47 in³

Step-by-step explanation:

Volume of a cone is;

V = ⅓πr²h

Where;

r is radius

h is height

For the original chamber;

r = 5.7/2 = 2.85 inches

h = 12 inches

Volume of this original chamber is;

V_orig = ⅓ × π × 2.85² × 12

V_orig = 102.02 in³

In the new design, the chamber is scaled by a factor of 1.5.

Thus;

r_new = 2.85 × 1.5 = 4.275 inches

h_new = 12 × 1.5 = 18 inches

V_new = ⅓ × π × 4.275² × 18

V_new = 344.49 inch³

V_new - V_orig = 344.49 - 102.02 =

Thus, the original volume is lesser than the new volume by 242.47 in³
