Previous data estimates the proportion of adults who are fully literate in Colombia to be 0.92. Suppose a random sample of adults from Columbia is to be taken and used to construct a 95% confidence interval for the proportion of adults who are fully literate. What is the MINIMUM sample size which should be used to construct this interval if the margin of error for the interval is to be 0.03 or less

Answers

Answer 1

Answer:

The minimum sample size which should be used is 315.

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].

The margin of error is:

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

Previous data estimates the proportion of adults who are fully literate in Colombia to be 0.92.

This means that [tex]\pi = 0.92[/tex]

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].

What is the MINIMUM sample size which should be used to construct this interval if the margin of error for the interval is to be 0.03 or less?

The minimum sample size that should be used is n for which M = 0.03. So

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

[tex]0.03 = 1.96\sqrt{\frac{0.92*0.08}{n}}[/tex]

[tex]0.03\sqrt{n} = 1.96\sqrt{0.92*0.08}[/tex]

[tex]\sqrt{n} = \frac{1.96\sqrt{0.92*0.08}}{0.03}[/tex]

[tex](\sqrt{n})^2 = (\frac{1.96\sqrt{0.92*0.08}}{0.03})^2[/tex]

[tex]n = 314.2[/tex]

Rounding up

The minimum sample size which should be used is 315.

As a punishment for something naughty that we did, my little brother and I have to whitewash both sides of a fence. We start at the same time, and we each work at a constant rate.

If we each whitewash one side, I'll finish in $2$ hours and my brother will finish in $3$ hours. But I'm a nice kid, so after I finish my side, I go around to the other side and help my brother finish his side. From the time I start helping him, how many minutes does it take us to finish the job?

Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:

Work done in 1 Hr = 1/2

Brother Finish work in 3 Hrs Work done in 1 hr = 1/3

Let Say both Complete Work in T hrs as it has to be painted on both sides

Then T (1/2+1/3) = 2

=> T × 5/6 = 2

=> T = 2 Hr 24 Mins

=> T = 12/5 I will Take 2 Hrs to finish my work & 24 Mins to finish after start Helping

xy=80 solve log x- log y=1

Answers

Question: Solve for x and y in the equation.

xy=80 and log x - 2 log y =1

Answer:

x = 40, y = 2

Step-by-step explanation:

xy = 80.......................... Equation 1

logx-2logy = 1

logx-logy² = 1

Applying the laws of logarithm,

log(x/y²) = log10

x/y² = 10

x  = 10y²......................... Equation 2

Substitute the value of x in therms of y equation 2 into equation 1

10y²(y) = 80

10y³ = 80

y³ = 8

y = [tex]\sqrt[3]{8}[/tex]

y = 2.

Substitute the value of y into equation 1

2x = 80

x = 80/2

x = 40

Therefore,

x = 40, y = 2

B. {(x, y): y = x²}

Step-by-step explanation:

A function is a graph where every input (x-value) has one and only one output (y-value). In other words if the value for x=2, there will only be one corresponding point for y. For the function in B, that y-value would be 4. Both A and D, solve for y, means taking the square root which leaves a +/- x-value. C is absolute value of y, which means the positive and negative values for y would have the same point. Only choice B has x-values corresponding to a singular y-value. If you can remember what these graphs look like you can test if they are functions based on the vertical line test.

Quadrilateral A'B'C'D' Is the image of quadrilateral ABCD under a dilation.

Scale factor = [tex]\frac{1}{4}[/tex]

Step-by-step explanation:

Formula for the dilation to be used,

Scale factor = [tex]\frac{\text{Dimension of the image}}{\text{Dimension of the original}}[/tex]

                    = [tex]\frac{A'B'}{AB}[/tex]

                    = [tex]\frac{1}{4}[/tex]

Therefore, scale factor by which quadrilateral ABCD has been dilated to form image quadrilateral A'B'C'D' is [tex]\frac{1}{4}[/tex].

Which statements are correct about the average rate of change for the function f(x) = x2 + 9x + 18 ?

Answers

Answer:

Presumably this is a multiple choice question, and without seeing the potential answers, we can't tell you which ones are correct.

A few things can however be said about this function:

1) It describes a parabola that extends upward infinitely.  We can see this because it's in the classic format ax² + bx + c, and all terms are positive.

2) We can find the x-intercepts by solving for zero.  In this case we can do that by factoring it:

x² + 9x + 18 = 0

x² + 3x + 6x + 18 = 0

x(x + 3) + 6(x + 3) = 0

(x + 6)(x + 3) = 0

So the x intercepts occur at (-6, 0) and (-3, 0)

3) we can find its vertex by taking its derivative and solving for zero:

f'(x) = 2x + 9

0 = 2x + 9

x = -4.5

We can then plug that coordinate into the original function to find the y coordinate:

f(x) = x² + 9x + 18

f(-4.5) = 20.25 - 40.5 + 18

= -2.25

So the vertex is at (-4.5, -2.25)

4) As mentioned, the derivative of f(x) is f'(x) = 2x + 9.  The integral is:

x³ / 3 + 9x² / 2 + 18x + C

A number greater than or equal to 41.

Step-by-step explanation:

We know that the sum of interior angles in a triangle is equal to 180° and

Isosceles triangles has two angles with same measurement

it stated in the question that exactly one angle has measure of 34°

So the other two angles must be equal for the triangle to be isosceles
