Question The average number of acres burned by forest and range fires in a county is 4,500 acres per year, with a standard deviation of 780 acres. The distribution of the number of acres burned is normal. What is the probability that between 3,000 and 4,800 acres will be burned in any given year? Round your answer to four decimal places. Provide your answer below:​

Answers

Answer 1

Answer:

The probability that between 3,000 and 4,800 acres will be burned in any given year is 0.6206

Step-by-step explanation:

Given

Mean = μ = 4500 acres

SD = σ = 780 Acres

Two data points between which the probability has to be calculated are:

3000 and 4800

x1 = 3000

x2 = 4800

z-score will be found for both data points

z-score is given by the formula

[tex]z = \frac{x-mean}{SD}[/tex]

The z-scores are:

[tex]z_1 = \frac{x_1-mean}{SD} = \frac{3000-4500}{780} = \frac{-1500}{780} = -1.92\\z_2 = \frac{x_2-mean}{SD} = \frac{4800-4500}{780} = \frac{300}{780} = 0.3846[/tex]

Now we have to find probabilities for both z-scores using the z-score table

[tex]P(z_1<-1.92) =0.02743\\P(z_2<0.3846)= 0.6480[/tex]

Now for the probability between both values

[tex]P(-1.92<z<0.3846) = P(z_2) - P(z_1) = 0.6480-0.02743 = 0.62057[/tex]

Rounding off to four decimal places

0.6206

Hence,

The probability that between 3,000 and 4,800 acres will be burned in any given year is 0.6206

Step-by-step explanation:

An integer is 15 more than 2 times another. If the product of the two integers is -27, then find the integers

Answers

Answer:

The required integers are x=3 and y= -9

Step-by-step explanation:

Let one the integers be x and y

An integer is 15 more than 2 times another: x=15+2y

product of the two integers is -27: x*y=27

[tex]x=15+2y ---eq(1)\\x*y=-27----eq(2)[/tex]

Solving both equations to find values of x and y

Putting value of x from equation 1 in equation 2

[tex](15+2y)*y=-27\\15y+2y^2=-27\\Rearranging:\\2y^2+15y-27=0[/tex]

This can be solved using quadratic formula:

[tex]$y=\frac{-b\pm\sqrt{b^2-4ac}}{2a}$[/tex]

Putting values and finding factors

[tex]$y=\frac{-(15)\pm\sqrt{(15)^2-4(2)(-27)}}{2(2)}$\\$y=\frac{-(15)\pm\sqrt{225+216}}{4}$\\$y=\frac{-(15)\pm\sqrt{441}}{4}$\\$y=\frac{-(15)\pm21}{4}$\\$y=\frac{-(15)+21}{4} \ or \ y=\frac{-(15)-21}{4}$\\$y=\frac{6}{4} \ or \ y=\frac{-36}{4}$\\$y=\frac{3}{2} \ or \ y=-9$[/tex]

Since y is integer so, we consider only y= -9

The value of x will be:

[tex]x*y=-27\\x*(-9)=-27\\x=\frac{-27}{-9} \\x=3[/tex]

So, the value of x is x=3

The required integers are x=3 and y= -9

Insurance companies are interested in knowing the population percent of drivers who always buckle up before riding in a car. When designing a study to determine this population proportion, what is the minimum number of drivers you would need to survey to be 95% confident that the population proportion is estimated to within 0.05?

If it was later determined that it was important to be more than 95% confident and a new survey was commissioned, how would that affect the minimum number you would need to survey? Why?

a. If the confidence level is increased, then the sample size would need to increase because a higher level of confidence increases the margin of error.
b. If the confidence level is increased, then the sample size would need to decrease because increasing the sample size would create an even larger interval.
c. If the confidence level is increased, then the sample size would need to decrease because we would like the proportion of people who buckle up to be around 50%.
d. If the confidence level is increased, then the sample size would not be affected.

Answers

Answer:

The value  is  [tex]n = 384 [/tex]

The correct option is a

Step-by-step explanation:

From the question we are told that

   The margin of error is  E =  0.05

From the question we are told the confidence level is  95% , hence the level of significance is    

      [tex]\alpha = (100 - 95 ) \%[/tex]

=>   [tex]\alpha = 0.05[/tex]

Generally from the normal distribution table the critical value  of   is  

   [tex]Z_{\frac{\alpha }{2} } =  1.96[/tex]

Generally since the sample proportion is not given we will assume it to be

      [tex]\^ p = 0.5[/tex]

Generally the sample size is mathematically represented as  

    [tex]n = [\frac{Z_{\frac{\alpha }{2} }}{E} ]^2 * \^ p (1 - \^ p ) [/tex]

=>   [tex]n = [\frac{ 1.96 }{0.05} ]^2 *0.5 (1 - 0.5) [/tex]

=>   [tex]n = 384 [/tex]

Generally the margin of error is mathematically represented as  

      [tex]E = Z_{\frac{\alpha }{2} } *  \frac{\sigma }{\sqrt{n} }[/tex]

Generally if the level of confidence increases,  the critical value of  [tex]\frac{\alpha }{2}[/tex]  increase and from the equation for margin of error we see the the critical  value varies directly with the margin of error , hence the margin of error  will increase also  

So  If the confidence level is increased, then the sample size would need to increase because a higher level of confidence increases the margin of error.
