(c) Do the confidence intervals you computed in parts a and b suggest that a greater percentage of U.K. ads use humor

Answers

Answer 1

Answer:

a)

The point estimate is 0.368.

The 95 percent confidence interval for the proportion of all U.K. television ads that use humor is (0.321, 0.415).

b)

The point estimate is 0.262.

The 95 percent confidence interval for the proportion of all U.S. television ads that use humor is (0.222, 0.302).

c)

Yes, because the lower bound of the confidence interval for UK proportions is higher than the upper bound of the confidence interval for US proportions.

Step-by-step explanation:

(a) Suppose that a random sample of 400 television ads in the United Kingdom reveals that 147 of these ads use humor.

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].

Sample of 400:

This means that [tex]n = 400[/tex]

Point estimate:

[tex]\pi = \frac{147}{400} = 0.368[/tex]

The point estimate is 0.368.

95% confidence level

So [tex]\alpha = 0.05[/tex], z is the value of Z that has a pvalue of [tex]1 - \frac{0.05}{2} = 0.975[/tex], so [tex]Z = 1.96[/tex].

The lower limit of this interval is:

[tex]\pi - z\sqrt{\frac{\pi(1-\pi)}{n}} = 0.368 - 1.96\sqrt{\frac{0.368*0.632}{400}} = 0.321[/tex]

The upper limit of this interval is:

[tex]\pi + z\sqrt{\frac{\pi(1-\pi)}{n}} = 0.368 + 1.96\sqrt{\frac{0.368*0.632}{400}} = 0.415[/tex]

The 95 percent confidence interval for the proportion of all U.K. television ads that use humor is (0.321, 0.415).

(b) Suppose a random sample of 455 television ads in the United States reveals that 119 of these ads use humor.

Sample of 455:

This means that [tex]n = 455[/tex]

Point estimate:

[tex]\pi = \frac{119}{455} = 0.262[/tex]

The point estimate is 0.262.

95% confidence level

So [tex]\alpha = 0.05[/tex], z is the value of Z that has a pvalue of [tex]1 - \frac{0.05}{2} = 0.975[/tex], so [tex]Z = 1.96[/tex].

The lower limit of this interval is:

[tex]\pi - z\sqrt{\frac{\pi(1-\pi)}{n}} = 0.262 + 1.96\sqrt{\frac{0.262*0.738}{455}} = 0.222[/tex]

The upper limit of this interval is:

[tex]\pi + z\sqrt{\frac{\pi(1-\pi)}{n}} = 0.262 + 1.96\sqrt{\frac{0.262*0.738}{455}} = 0.302[/tex]

The 95 percent confidence interval for the proportion of all U.S. television ads that use humor is (0.222, 0.302).

(c) Do the confidence intervals you computed in parts a and b suggest that a greater percentage of U.K. ads use humor?

Yes, because the lower bound of the confidence interval for UK proportions is higher than the upper bound of the confidence interval for US proportions.

Determine whether or not the given procedure results in a binomial distribution. If not, identify which condition is not met. Spinning an American roulette wheel 7979 times and recording the number of times the ball lands on an even number.

Answers

Answer:

The procedure does results in a binomial distribution.

Step-by-step explanation:

For a binomial probability distribution to be applicable, certain conditions have to be met which are :

There must be a fixed number of observations ; here the number of observations are : 79

All observations must be independent ; the observations are independent ; odd or even

Observations must fall into one of two categories : success category or failure. Here, observations can be odd or even

The probability of success must be equally likely for each observation.

Hence, the procedure results in a binomial probability distribution.


Jamal is making a snack mix that contains only pretzels and nuts. For every ounce of nuts, he will use 2 ounces of pretzels.
How many ounces of pretzels and how many ounces of nuts does he need to make 45 ounces of snack mix?

Answers

Answer:

Pretzels: 30 ounces, Nuts: 15 ounces

Step-by-step explanation:

Trust me.

Number of ounces of nuts = 30

Number of ounces of pretzels = 15

What is an expression?

Mathematical expression is defined as the collection of the numbers variables and functions by using operations like addition, subtraction, multiplication, and division.

Given that;

Jamal is making a snack mix with pretzels and nuts.

And, For every ounce of nuts, he will use 2 ounces of pretzels.

Total number of snake mix = 45 ounces

Now,

Let number of ounces of pretzels = y

Let number of ounces of nuts = x

So, We can formulate;

⇒ x = 2y    ... (i)

And, x + y = 45     .... (ii)

Substitute the value of x in equation (ii) , we get;

x + y = 45  

2y + y = 45  

3y = 45

y = 15

And,

x + y = 45  

x + 15 = 45

x = 30

Therefore,

Number of ounces of nuts = 30

Number of ounces of pretzels = 15

Step-by-step explanation:

Answer:

12 feet

Step-by-step explanation:

Area of a triangle is A = 1/2 b h

Plug in:

Height = 5

30 = 1/2 (5)b

Divide by 1/2:

30 / 1/2 = 60

Equation 2 > 3x - 7y = -83
Solve for x and y.
Please and thank you!​

Answers

Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:

Both equations have -7y. You can eliminate them by subtracting one equation from the other:

Multiply equation 1 by -1, then add it to equation 2:

-2x + 7y = 74

3x - 7y = -83

———————

x = -9

2x - 7y = -74

2(-9) - 7y = -74

-7y = -56

Y = 8

(x,y) = (-9, 8)
