Required:
Assuming the population is roughly symmetric, construct a 95% confidence interval for the mean savings for a televisit to the doctor as opposed to an office visit (to 2 decimals).
Answer:
[tex]71.35-2.093\frac{22.48}{\sqrt{20}}=60.83[/tex]

90 34 41 106 84 53 55 48 41 75 49 97 92 73 74 80 94 102 56 83
In order to calculate the mean and the sample deviation we can use the following formulas:
[tex]\bar X= \sum_{i=1}^n \frac{x_i}{n}[/tex] (2)
[tex]s=\sqrt{\frac{\sum_{i=1}^n (x_i-\bar X)}{n-1}}[/tex] (3)
[tex]\bar X=71.35[/tex] represent the sample mean for the sample
[tex]\mu[/tex] population mean (variable of interest)
s=22.48 represent the sample standard deviation
n=20 represent the sample size
Confidence interval
The confidence interval for the mean is given by the following formula:
[tex]\bar X \pm t_{\alpha/2}\frac{s}{\sqrt{n}}[/tex] (1)
The degrees of freedom are given by:
[tex]df=n-1=20-1=19[/tex]
Since the Confidence is 0.95 or 95%, the significance is [tex]\alpha=0.05[/tex] and [tex]\alpha/2 =0.025[/tex], and the critical value would be [tex]t_{\alpha/2}=2.093[/tex]
And replacing we got:
[tex]71.35-2.093\frac{22.48}{\sqrt{20}}=60.83[/tex]
[tex]71.35+2.093\frac{22.48}{\sqrt{20}}=81.87[/tex]
A report on consumer financial literacy summarized data from a representative sample of 1,570 adult Americans. Based on data from this sample, it was reported that over half of U.S. adults would give themselves a grade of A or B on their knowledge of personal finance. This statement was based on observing that 820 people in the sample would have given themselves a grade of A or B.
Required:
a. Construct and interpret a 95% confidence interval for the proportion of all adult Americans who would give themselves a grade of A or B on their financial knowledge of personal finance.
b. Is the confidence interval from part (a) consistent with the statement that a majority of adult Americans would give themselves a grade of A or B? Explain why or why not. Because this confidence interval , the interval consistent with the statement that a majority of adult Americans would give themselves a grade of A or B.
Answer:
a) 95% confidence interval for the proportion of all adult Americans who would give themselves a grade of A or B on their financial knowledge of personal finance = (0.498, 0.547)
This means we are 95% confident that the true proportion all adult Americans who would give themselves a grade of A or B on their financial knowledge of personal finance is within the range 49.8% and 54.7%.
b) The confidence interval from part (a) is consistent with the statement that a majority of adult Americans would give themselves a grade of A or B because the interval obtained contains proportions that are greater than 50% indicating that there is significant evidence that the true proportion of all adult Americans who would give themselves a grade of A or B on their financial knowledge of personal finance is more than half of the total population.
Step-by-step explanation:
Confidence Interval for the population proportion is basically an interval of range of values where the true population proportion can be found with a certain level of confidence.
Mathematically,
Confidence Interval = (Sample proportion) ± (Margin of error)
Sample proportion = (820/1570) = 0.5223
Margin of Error is the width of the confidence interval about the mean.
It is given mathematically as,
Margin of Error = (Critical value) × (standard Error)
Critical value at 95% confidence interval for sample size of 1570 is obtained from the z-tables.
Critical value = 1.960
Standard error of the mean = σₓ = √[p(1-p)/n]
p = sample proportion = 0.5223
n = sample size = 1570
σₓ = √(0.5223×0.4777/1570) = 0.0126063049 = 0.01261
95% Confidence Interval = (Sample proportion) ± [(Critical value) × (standard Error)]
CI = 0.5223 ± (1.96 × 0.01261)
CI = 0.5223 ± 0.02471
95% CI = (0.4975916424, 0.5470083576)
95% Confidence interval = (0.4976, 0.5470)
We are 95% confident that the true proportion all adult Americans who would give themselves a grade of A or B on their financial knowledge of personal finance is within the range 49.8% and 54.7%.
b) The confidence interval from part (a) is consistent with the statement that a majority of adult Americans would give themselves a grade of A or B because the interval obtained contains proportions that are greater than 50% indicating that there is significant evidence that the true proportion of all adult Americans who would give themselves a grade of A or B on their financial knowledge of personal finance is more than half of the total population.

What is the slope of the line below
Answer:
The answer is option A
Slope of the line using points
( 2,0) and (0, 3)
Slope = 3 - 0 / 0 - 2 = -3/2
Hope this helps
Start at the y-intercept of 3 on the coordinate system.
Remember, when choosing points, chose clear
cut points where the line crosses them.
The next put is on the x-intercept and it's 2.
To get from (0,3) to (2,0), we go down 3 units and run 2 units.
Since our slope is going down, it's negative.
So the slope is -3/2.

A plane flies 240 miles due north, then 320 miles due west. How
many miles must it fly to return to its starting point by the shortest
route? (Enter your answer without units.)
Answer: The distance of the shortest route of return is 400
Step-by-step explanation:
The direction of travel of the plane forms a right angle triangle ABC as shown in the attached photo. C represents the starting point of the plane. To determine the distance of the shortest by which the plane can return to its starting point, BC, we would apply the Pythagorean theorem which is expressed as
Hypotenuse² = opposite side² + adjacent side²
BC² = 320² + 240²
BC² = 160000
BC = √160000
BC = 400

A residential complex has left for the recreation area a circular-shaped extension of 40 m radius. In this space, a basketball court 30 m long by 15 m wide will be built. Also, a trapezoid-shaped park will be left in the sand, 6 m with a larger base, 4 m with a lower base and 3.5 m in height. What is the area left in the circular zone, after building the basketball court and the sand park? NOTE: remember the value of π = 3.14
Answer:
Step-by-step explanation:
Area of the circular zone = [tex]\pi[/tex]r^2
= 3.14 × 40^2 = 3.14 × 1600 = 5024 m^2
Area of the basketball court = l × b
= 30 × 15 = 450 m^2
Area of the trapezium shaped park = ( 6 + 4 ) 3.5 / 2
= 35/2 = 17.5 m^2
∴ Area left in the circular zone = Area of the circular zone - ( Area of the basketball court + Area of the trapezium shaped park )
= 5024 - ( 450 + 17.5 )
= 5024 - 467.5
= 4556.5 m^2

An airport limousine can accommodate up to four passengers on any one trip. The company will accept a maximum of six reservations for a trip, and a passenger must have a reservation. From previous records, 30% of all those making reservations do not appear for the trip. Answer the following questions, assuming independence wherever appropriate. (Round your answers to three decimal places.)
(a) If six reservations are made, what is the probability that at least one individual with a reservation cannot be accommodated on the trip?
(b) If six reservations are made, what is the expected number of available places when the limousine departs?
Answer:
(a) The probability that at least one individual with a reservation cannot be accommodated on the trip is 0.4202.
(b) The expected number of available places when the limousine departs is 0.338.
Step-by-step explanation:
Let the random variable Y represent the number of passenger reserving the trip shows up.
The probability of the random variable Y is, p = 0.70.
The success in this case an be defined as the number of passengers who show up for the trip.
The random variable Y follows a Binomial distribution with probability of success as 0.70.
(a)
It is provided that n = 6 reservations are made.
Compute the probability that at least one individual with a reservation cannot be accommodated on the trip as follows:
P (At least one individual cannot be accommodated) = P (X = 5) + P (X = 6)
[tex]={6 \choose 5}\ (0.70)^{5}\ (1-0.70)^{6-5}+{6 \choose 6}\ (0.70)^{6}\ (1-0.70)^{6-6}\\\\=0.302526+0.117649\\\\=0.420175\\\\\approx 0.4202[/tex]
Thus, the probability that at least one individual with a reservation cannot be accommodated on the trip is 0.4202.
(b)
The formula to compute the expected value is:
[tex]E(Y) = \sum X\cdot P(X)[/tex]
[tex]P (X=0)={6 \choose 0}\ (0.70)^{0}\ (1-0.70)^{6-0}=0.000729\\\\P (X=1)={6 \choose 1}\ (0.70)^{1}\ (1-0.70)^{6-1}=0.010206\\\\P (X=2)={6 \choose 2}\ (0.70)^{2}\ (1-0.70)^{6-2}=0.059535\\\\P (X=3)={6 \choose 3}\ (0.70)^{3}\ (1-0.70)^{6-3}=0.18522\\\\P (X=4)={6 \choose 4}\ (0.70)^{4}\ (1-0.70)^{6-4}=0.324135[/tex]
Compute the expected number of available places when the limousine departs as follows:
[tex]E(Y) = \sum X\cdot P(X)[/tex]
[tex]=(4\cdot 0.000729)+(3\cdot 0.010206)+(2\cdot 0.059535)+(1\cdot 0.18522)\\+(0\cdot 0.324135)\\\\=0.002916+0.030618+0.11907+0.18522+0\\\\=0.337824\\\\\approx 0.338[/tex]

How many parallel and perpendicular lines, are there in a trapezium?
Answer:
US
0 parallel linesoptionally, one or two (opposite) angles may be 90°World
2 parallel linesoptionally, one line perpendicular to the two parallel linesStep-by-step explanation:
It depends on where you are. A "trapezium" outside the US is the same as a "trapezoid" in the US, and vice versa.
A trapezium (World; trapezoid in the US) is characterized by exactly one pair of parallel lines. One of the lines that are not parallel may be perpendicular to the parallel lines, but that will only be true for the specific case of a "right" trapezium.
__
A trapezium (US; trapezoid in the World) is characterized by no parallel lines. It may have one angle or opposite angles that are right angles (one or two sets of perpendicular lines), but neither diagonal may bisect the other.
In the US, "trapezium" is rarely used. The term "quadrilateral" is generally applied to a 4-sided figure with no sides parallel.

A graduate student majoring in linguistics is interested in studying the number of students in her college who are bilingual. Of the 1,320 students at the college, 466 of them are bilingual. If the graduate student conducts a study and samples 50 students at the college, use a calculator to determine the probability that 17 or fewer of them are bilingual.
The result will be the probability that 17 or fewer out of the 50 sampled students are bilingual.
To determine the probability that 17 or fewer out of 50 sampled students are bilingual, we can use the binomial probability formula. Let's calculate it step by step:
First, we need to determine the probability of an individual student being bilingual. We can do this by dividing the number of bilingual students by the total number of students:
P(bilingual) = 466 / 1320
Next, we'll use this probability to calculate the probability of having 17 or fewer bilingual students out of a sample of 50. We'll sum up the probabilities for having 0, 1, 2, ..., 17 bilingual students using the binomial probability formula:
P(X ≤ 17) = P(X = 0) + P(X = 1) + P(X = 2) + ... + P(X = 17)
Where:
P(X = k) = (nCk) * (P(bilingual))^k * (1 - P(bilingual))^(n - k)
n = Sample size = 50
k = Number of bilingual students (0, 1, 2, ..., 17)
Now, let's use a calculator to compute these probabilities. Assuming you have access to a scientific calculator, you can follow these steps:
Convert the probability of an individual being bilingual to decimal form: P(bilingual) = 466 / 1320 = 0.353
Calculate the cumulative probabilities for having 0 to 17 bilingual students:
P(X ≤ 17) = P(X = 0) + P(X = 1) + P(X = 2) + ... + P(X = 17)
Using the binomial probability formula, we'll substitute the values:
P(X ≤ 17) = (50C0) * (0.353)^0 * (1 - 0.353)^(50 - 0) + (50C1) * (0.353)^1 * (1 - 0.353)^(50 - 1) + ... + (50C17) * (0.353)^17 * (1 - 0.353)^(50 - 17)
Evaluate this expression using your calculator to get the final probability. Make sure to use the combination (nCr) function on your calculator to calculate the binomial coefficients.

Using the central limit theorem, the probability that 17 or fewer of them are bilingual.
The following information is given in the question:
Population size N = 1320
Number of bilingual students = 466
Sample size n = 50
number of bilingual students in the sample = 17
Population proportion:
[tex]P =\frac{466}{1320}[/tex]
P =0.3530
Q= 1-3530
Q = 0.647
Sample proportion:
[tex]p = \frac{17}{50}[/tex]
p = 0.34
q = 1-0.34
q = 0.66
Since,
[tex]X \sim B(n, p)[/tex]
E(x) = np and var(x) = npq
Here, the sample size (50) is large and the probability p is small.
So we can use the central limit theorem, which says that for large n and small p :
[tex]X \sim (nP, nPQ)[/tex]
Where, P =0.3530
nP = 50 x 0.3530 = 17.65
and nPQ = 50x0.3530x0.647 = 11.41
Now, we want to calculate P(X≤17)
[tex]P(X\leq 17) = P(\frac{x-nP}{\sqrt{nPQ}}\leq \frac{17-17.65}{\sqrt{11.41}})[/tex]
[tex]P(X\leq 17) = P(z}\leq \frac{-0.65}{3.78}})[/tex]
[tex]P(X\leq 17) = P(z}\leq -0.172)[/tex]
[tex]P(X\leq 17) = P(z}\geq 0.172)[/tex]
[tex]P(X\leq 17) =1- P(z}\leq 0.172)[/tex]
[tex]P(X\leq 17) =1-0.56[/tex]
[tex]P(X\leq 17) =0.44[/tex]
Hence, the probability that 17 or fewer of the students are bilingual is 0.44.

Tara solved a quadratic equation. Her work is shown below, with Step 222 missing. What could Tara have written as the result from Step 222? \begin{aligned} 2(x-3)^2+6&=14 \\\\ 2(x-3)^2&=8&\text{Step }1 \\\\ &&\text{Step }2 \\\\ x-3&=\pm 2&\text{Step }3 \\\\ x=1&\text{ or }x=5&\text{Step }4 \end{aligned} 2(x−3) 2 +6 2(x−3) 2 x−3 x=1 =14 =8 =±2 or x=5 Step 1 Step 2 Step 3 Step 4
Answer:
[tex](x-3)^2=4[/tex]
Step-by-step explanation:
Tara's work is shown below:
[tex]\begin{aligned} 2(x-3)^2+6&=14 \\\\ 2(x-3)^2&=8&\text{Step }1 \\\\ &&\text{Step }2 \\\\ x-3&=\pm 2&\text{Step }3 \\\\ x=1&\text{ or }x=5&\text{Step }4 \end{aligned}[/tex]
From the equation, we notice that in Step 1, Tara did:
[tex]2(x-3)^2+6=14\\2(x-3)^2=14-6\\2(x-3)^2=8[/tex]
She is trying to isolate the x-variable. Therefore, the next logical step will be to divide both sides by 2 and her Step 2 will therefore be:
[tex]\dfrac{2(x-3)^2}{2} =\dfrac{8}{2} \\\\(x-3)^2=4[/tex]
Tara could have written: [tex](x-3)^2=4[/tex] as her step 2 and we would then have her work as:
[tex]\begin{aligned} 2(x-3)^2+6&=14 \\\\ 2(x-3)^2&=8&\text{Step }1 \\\\ (x-3)^2&=4&\text{Step }2 \\\\ x-3&=\pm 2&\text{Step }3 \\\\ x=1&\text{ or }x=5&\text{Step }4 \end{aligned}[/tex]
