In a poll of 2000 likely voters, 960 say that the US spends too little on fighting hunger at home. Find a 96% confidence interval for the true proportion of voters who feel this way. a.Find a point estimate for p, the population proportion who thought US spends too little on fighting hunger at home.b.Find a 96% confidence interval for p.

Answers

Answer 1

Answer:

a. 0.48

b. The 96% confidence interval for p is (0.457, 0.503).

Step-by-step explanation:

In a sample with a number n of people surveyed with a probability of a success of [tex]\pi[/tex], and a confidence level of [tex]1-\alpha[/tex], we have the following confidence interval of proportions.

[tex]\pi \pm z\sqrt{\frac{\pi(1-\pi)}{n}}[/tex]

In which

z is the zscore that has a pvalue of [tex]1 - \frac{\alpha}{2}[/tex].

In a poll of 2000 likely voters, 960 say that the US spends too little on fighting hunger at home.

This means that [tex]n = 2000, \pi = \frac{960}{2000} = 0.48[/tex].

This is the answer for question a.

96% confidence level

So [tex]\alpha = 0.04[/tex], z is the value of Z that has a pvalue of [tex]1 - \frac{0.04}{2} = 0.98[/tex], so [tex]Z = 2.056[/tex].

The lower limit of this interval is:

[tex]\pi - z\sqrt{\frac{\pi(1-\pi)}{n}} = 0.48 - 2.056\sqrt{\frac{0.48*0.52}{2000}} = 0.457[/tex]

The upper limit of this interval is:

[tex]\pi + z\sqrt{\frac{\pi(1-\pi)}{n}} = 0.48 + 2.056\sqrt{\frac{0.48*0.52}{2000}} = 0.503[/tex]

The 96% confidence interval for p is (0.457, 0.503).

For a school fundraiser Paul bought a big box of ducks and wrote prize amounts, in dollars on the bottom of each rubber duck. The prize amounts were $5, $10, $20, $50, and$100. The number of ducks with each prize amount varied so that the total value for all the ducks with each prize amount was always $500. Paul then put all of the rubber ducks in his schools swimming pool. At the fundraiser participants used a long net to catch a duck from the pool. They won the amount written on the bottom of the duck, and then they threw the duck back into the pool before the next persons turn. Since the ducks were returned to the pool after they were caught the chances of winning any particular amount remained the same. Andrew paid $15 to play the game once. If we assume he randomly selected a duck, what is the probability that Andrew won more money than he paid to play the game?

The prism shown has a volume of 35 cm^3
Work out h, the height of the triangular cross section.
Length =7 cm
Base=4 cm

Answers

Answer:

[tex]Height = 2.5[/tex]

Step-by-step explanation:

Given

[tex]Volume = 35[/tex]

[tex]Length =7[/tex]

[tex]Base=4 cm[/tex]

Required

Determine the height

The volume is calculated as:

[tex]Volume = Height * Base\ Area[/tex]

Since, it has a triangular cross-section, the expression becomes:

[tex]Volume = Height * \frac{1}{2} * Base * Length[/tex]

So, we have:

[tex]35 = Height * \frac{1}{2} * 4 * 7[/tex]

[tex]35 = Height * 14[/tex]

[tex]Height = 35/14[/tex]

[tex]Height = 2.5[/tex]

Lillian is going to invest in an account paying an interest rate of 5.7% compounded continuously. How much would Lillian need to invest, to the nearest ten dollars, for the value of the account to reach $7,600 in 7 years?

Answers

Answer:

She has to invest $5,160 for the value of the account to reach $7,600 in 7 years.

Step-by-step explanation:

Continuous compounding:

The amount of money earned, after t years, in continuous compounding, is given by:

[tex]A(t) = A(0)(1+r)^t[/tex]

In which A(0) is the value of the initial investment and r is the interest rate, as a decimal.

Lillian is going to invest in an account paying an interest rate of 5.7% compounded continuously.

This means that [tex]r = 0.057[/tex]

How much would Lillian need to invest, to the nearest ten dollars, for the value of the account to reach $7,600 in 7 years?

We have to find A(0) when [tex]A(t) = 7600, t = 7[/tex]

So

[tex]A(t) = A(0)(1+r)^t[/tex]

[tex]7600 = A(0)(1+0.057)^7[/tex]

[tex]A(0) = \frac{7600}{(1.057)^7}[/tex]

[tex]A(0) = 5156[/tex]

To the nearest ten dollars, she has to invest $5,160 for the value of the account to reach $7,600 in 7 years.

The kite forms 39° angle.

We need to find the height of the kite. Let it is h. We can find it using trigonometry i.e.

[tex]\sin\theta=\dfrac{P}{H}[/tex]

Where

P is perpendicular and H is Hypotenuse

So,

[tex]\sin\theta=\dfrac{h}{H}\\\\h=H\times \sin\theta\\\\h=125\times \sin(39)\\\\h=78.66\ m[/tex]

or

h = 79 m

So, the kite is flying at a height of 79 m.
