Suppose we know that a confidence interval for a population proportion is (0.572,0.662), with a sample proportion of p′=0.617. What is the margin of error?

Answers

Answer 1
Answer:  0.045

Explanation:

The sample proportion 0.617 is at the exact midpoint of the interval from  0.572 to 0.662

We can confirm this by applying the midpoint formula.

The distance from the center (0.617) to either endpoint will be the margin of error. In other words, it is half the width of the confidence interval

L = lower boundary of confidence interval = 0.572

C = center of confidence interval = 0.617

U = upper boundary of confidence interval = 0.662

We have three methods to find the confidence interval

margin of error = U - C = 0.662-0.617 = 0.045margin of error = C - L = 0.617 - 0.572 = 0.045margin of error = (width)/2 = (U-L)/2 = (0.662-0.572)/2 = 0.045

Each yielding the same result of 0.045

With the third method, you don't need to know the center of the confidence interval.

Answers

Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:

Part A

Mean = (2.2 + 2.4 + 2.5 + 2.5 + 2.6 + 2.7)/6 = 2.48

Standard deviation = √(summation(x - mean)²/n

n = 6

Summation(x - mean)² = (2.2 - 2.48)^2 + (2.4 - 2.48)^2 + (2.5 - 2.48)^2 + (2.5 - 2.48)^2 + (2.6 - 2.48)^2 + (2.7 - 2.48)^2 = 0.1484

Standard deviation = √(0.1484/6

s = 0.16

Standard error = s/√n = 0.16/√6 = 0.065

Part B

Confidence interval is written as sample mean ± margin of error

Margin of error = z × s/√n

Since sample size is small and population standard deviation is unknown, z for 98% confidence level would be the t score from the student t distribution table. Degree of freedom = n - 1 = 6 - 1 = 5

Therefore, z = 3.365

Margin of error = 3.365 × 0.16/√6 = 0.22

Confidence interval is 2.48 ± 0.22

Part C

We would set up the hypothesis test. This is a test of a single population mean since we are dealing with mean

For the null hypothesis,

H0: µ = 2.3

For the alternative hypothesis,

H1: µ > 2.3

This is a right tailed test

Since the number of samples is small and no population standard deviation is given, the distribution is a student's t.

Since n = 6

Degrees of freedom, df = n - 1 = 6 - 1 = 5

t = (x - µ)/(s/√n)

Where

x = sample mean = 2.48

µ = population mean = 2.3

s = samples standard deviation = 0.16

t = (2.48 - 2.3)/(0.16/√6) = 2.76

We would determine the p value using the t test calculator. It becomes

p = 0.02

Assuming significance level, alpha = 0.05.

Since alpha, 0.05 > than the p value, 0.02, then we would reject the null hypothesis. Therefore, At a 5% level of significance, the sample data showed significant evidence that the mean absolute refractory period for all mice when subjected to the same treatment increased.

Given that triangle DAE ~ triangle BAC, what is the length of side AE?

Answers

Answer:

12

Step-by-step explanation:

For polygons that are similar to each other, the ratio of their corresponding sides are usually equal to each other, as they are proportional.

Therefore, given that ∆DAE is similar to ∆BAC, AD = 6, AB = 6+4 = 10, AE = x, AC = x + 8, therefore:

AD/AB = AE/AC

6/10 = x/(x+8)

Cross multiply

6*(x+8) = x*10

6x + 48 = 10x

Subtract 6x from both sides

48 = 10x - 6x

48 = 4x

Divide both sides by 4

48/4 = x

x = 12

Length of side AE = 12

According to the New York Stock Exchange, the mean portfolio value for U.S. senior citizens who are shareholders is $183,000. Assume portfolio values are normally distributed. Suppose a simple random sample of 51 senior citizen shareholders in a certain region of the United States is found to have a mean portfolio value of $198,000, with a standard deviation of $65,000.
a. From these sample results, and using the 0.05 level of significance comment on whether the mean portfolio value for all senior citizen shareholders in this region might not be the same as the mean value reported for their counterparts across the nation, by using the critical value method. Establish the null and alternative hypotheses.
b. What is your conclusion about the null hypothesis?

Answers

Answer:

The test statistic value  t =  1.64 < 2.0086 at 0.05 level of significance

Null hypothesis is accepted

The mean portfolio value for all senior citizen shareholders in this region might not be the same as the mean value reported for their counterparts across the nation

Step-by-step explanation:

Step(i):-

Given mean of the population (μ) =  $183,000

Given mean of the sample (x⁻)  = $198,000

Given standard deviation of the sample (S) =  $65,000.

Mean of the sample size 'n' = 51

level of significance  α = 0.05

Step(ii):-

Null hypothesis : H₀ : There is no significance difference between the means

Alternative Hypothesis :H₁: There is  significance difference between the means

Test statistic

             [tex]t = \frac{x^{-}-mean }{\frac{S.D}{\sqrt{n} } }[/tex]

           [tex]t = \frac{198,000- 183,000 }{\frac{ 65,000}{\sqrt{51} } }[/tex]

          t =  1.64

Step(iii)

Degrees of freedom  ν = n-1 = 51-1 =50

t₀.₀₅ =  2.0086

The calculated value  t =  1.64 < 2.0086 at 0.05 level of significance

Null hypothesis is accepted

Final answer:-

There is no significance difference between the means

The mean portfolio value for all senior citizen shareholders in this region might not be the same as the mean value reported for their counterparts across the nation

We need to determine the value of x.

Value of x:

Since, the given quadrilateral is a rhombus because it has all four sides equal.

We know the property that the opposite sides of the rhombus are equal.

The measure of the opposite angle is 116°

x = measure of opposite angle

x = 116°

Then, the value of x is 116°

Therefore, the value of x is 116°

Answer:

In the diagram, the measurement of x is 87°

Step-by-step explanation:

In this diagram, this shape is a quadrilateral. This quadrilateral in this picture is known as rhombus. In a rhombus, the consecutive angles are supplementary meaning they have a sum of 180°. Consecutive means the angles are beside each other. So, we will subtract 93 from 180 to find the value of x.

The rectangle has an area of 60 square feet. Find its dimensions (in ft). (x + 4) feet smaller value ___________________ ft larger value ____________________ ft

Answers

The question is incomplete! Complete question along with answer and step by step explanation is provided below.

Question:

The rectangle has an area of 60 square feet. Find its dimensions (in ft) if the length of the rectangle is 4 ft more than its widh.

smaller value ___________________ ft

larger value ____________________ ft

Answer:

Smaller value = 6 ft

Larger value = 10 ft

Step-by-step explanation:

Recall that the area of a rectangle is given by

[tex]Area = W \times L[/tex]

Where W is the width and L is the length of the rectangle.

It is given that the rectangle has an area of 60 square feet.

[tex]Area = 60 \: ft^2 \\\\60 = W \times L \\\\[/tex]

It is also given that the length of the rectangle is 4 ft more than its width

[tex]L = W + 4[/tex]

Substitute [tex]L = W + 4[/tex] into the above equation

[tex]60 = W \times (W + 4) \\\\60 = W^2 + 4W \\\\W^2 + 4W - 60 = 0 \\\\[/tex]

So we are left with a quadratic equation.

We may solve the quadratic equation using the factorization method  

[tex]W^2 + 10W - 6W - 60 \\\\W(W + 10) – 6(W + 10) \\\\(W + 10) (W - 6) = 0 \\\\[/tex]

So,

[tex](W + 10) = 0 \\\\W = -10 \\\\[/tex]

Since width cannot be negative, discard the negative value of W

[tex](W - 6) = 0 \\\\W = 6 \: ft \\\\[/tex]

The length of the rectangle is  

[tex]L = W + 4 \\\\L = 6 + 4 \\\\L = 10 \: ft \\\\[/tex]

Therefore, the dimensions of the rectangle are

Smaller value = 6 ft

Larger value = 10 ft

Verification:

[tex]Area = W \times L \\\\Area = 6 \times 10 \\\\Area = 60 \: ft^2 \\\\[/tex]

Hence verified.

Event 4: choosing a black pen from Box B.

Answers

Answer:

Event 3 -> Event 1 -> Event 4 -> Event 2

Step-by-step explanation:

The probability of choosing a certain pen is the number of that pen in the box over the total number of pens in the box.

So we have that:

Event 1: We have 4 black pen and 20 total pens, so P = 4 / 20 = 1 / 5

Event 2: All pens are black or orange so the probability is 1.

Event 3: We don't have white pens, so the probability is 0.

Event 4: We have 2 black pen and 5 total pens, so P = 2 / 5

Listing from least likely to most likely, we have:

Event 3 -> Event 1 -> Event 4 -> Event 2

Jill bought 7 books more than Sam. If Sam and Jill together have 25 books, find the
number of books Sam has.

Answers

Answer:

Jill bought 16 books and Sam bought 9 books

Step-by-step explanation:

Let the number of books that Jill bought be j.

Let the number of books that Sam bought be s.

Jill bought 7 more books than Sam:

j = 7 + s

They bought 25 books altogether:

j + s = 25

Put j = 7 + s into the second equation:

7 + s + s = 25

7 + 2s = 25

2s = 25 - 7 = 18

s = 18/2 = 9 books

Therefore:

j = 7 + s = 7 + 9

s = 16 books

Jill bought 16 books and Sam bought 9 books.

A boat that can travel 18 mph in still water can travel 21 miles downstream in the same amount of time that it can travel 15 miles upstream. Find the speed (in mph) of the current in the river.

Answers

Hey there! I'm happy to help!

We see that if the river isn't moving at all the boat can move at 18 mph (most likely because it has an engine propelling it.)

We want to set up a proportion where our 21 miles downstream time is equal to our 15 miles upstream time so we can find the speed. A proportion is basically showing that two ratios are equal. Since our downstream distance and upstream distance can be done in the same amount of time, we will write it as a proportion.

We want to find the speed of the river. We will use r to represent the speed of the river. When going downstream, the boat will go faster, so it will have a higher mph. So, our speed going down is 18+r. When you are going upstream, it's the opposite, so it will be 18-r.

[tex]\frac{distance}{speed} =\frac{21}{18+r} = \frac{15}{18-r}[/tex]

So, how do we figure out what r is now? Well, one nice thing to know about proportions is that the product of the items diagonal from each other equals the product of the other items. Basically, that means that 15(18+r) is equal to 21(18-r). This is a very nice trick to solve proportions quickly. We see that we have made an equation and now we can solve it!

15(18+r)=21(18-r)

We use the distributive property to undo the parentheses.

270+15r=378-21r

We subtract 270 from both sides.

15r=108-21

We add 21 to both sides.

36r=108

We divide both sides by 36.

r=3

Therefore, the speed of the river is 3 mph.

You also could have noticed that 18mph to 21 mph is +3, and 18mph to 15 mph -3 in -3 mph, so the speed of the river is 3 mph. That would have been a quicker way to solve it XD!

A fruit company delivers its fruit in two types of boxes: large and small. A delivery of eight large boxes and four small boxes has a total weight of two hundred and one kilograms. A delivery of three large boxes and two small boxes has a total weight of eighty two kilograms. How much does each type of box weigh?

Answers

Answer:

Weight of Large Box = 18.5 kg

Weight of Large Box = 13.25 kg

Step-by-step explanation:

Given:

There are two types of boxes i.e. Large and Small

Let the weight of Large boxes = L kg

Let the weight of Small boxes = S kg

As per given statement:

A delivery of eight large boxes and four small boxes has a total weight of two hundred and one kilograms.

Writing equation for above:

[tex]8L + 4S = 201[/tex] ....... (1)

A delivery of three large boxes and two small boxes has a total weight of eighty two kilograms.

Writing equation for above:

[tex]3L + 2S = 82 ....... (2)[/tex]

Now, by solving the equations (1) and (2), we can get the values of L and S.

Multiplying equation (2) with 2 and subtracting from equation (1):

[tex]8L + 4S = 201[/tex]

-

[tex]2 \times (3L + 2S) = 82 \times 2[/tex]

[tex]8L + 4S = 201[/tex]

-

[tex]6L + 4S = 164[/tex]

--------------------

[tex]2L = 37[/tex]

L = 18.5 Kg

Putting value of L in equation (1):

[tex]8 \times 18.5 + 4S = 201\\\Rightarrow 148 + 4S = 201\\\Rightarrow 4S = 201 - 148\\\Rightarrow 4S = 53\\\Rightarrow S = 13.25\ kg[/tex]

So, the answer is:

Weight of Large Box = 18.5 kg

Weight of Large Box = 13.25 kg

In 1998, the average price for bananas was 51 cents per pound. In 2003, the following 7 sample prices (in cents) were obtained from local markets:

50, 53, 55, 43, 50, 47, 58.

Is there significant evidence to suggest that the average retail price of bananas is different than 51 cents per pound? Test at the 5% significance level.

Answers

Answer:

[tex]t=\frac{50.857-51}{\frac{5.014}{\sqrt{7}}}=-0.075[/tex]    

The degrees of freedom are given by:

[tex]df=n-1=7-1=6[/tex]  

The p value for this case would be given:

[tex]p_v = 2*P(t_6 <-0.075)=0.943[/tex]

The p value for this case is lower than the significance level so then we have enough evidence to FAIL to reject the null hypothesis and we can conclude that the true mean is not significantly different from 51

Step-by-step explanation:

Info given

50, 53, 55, 43, 50, 47, 58.

We can calculate the sample mean and deviation with this formula:

[tex]\bar X=\frac{\sum_{i=1}^n X_i}{n}[/tex]

[tex]s=\sqrt{\frac{\sum_{i=1}^n (X_i -\bar X)^2)}{n-1}}[/tex]

represent the mean height for the sample  

[tex]s=5.014[/tex] represent the sample standard deviation for the sample  

[tex]n=7[/tex] sample size  

represent the value that we want to test

[tex]\alpha=0.05[/tex] represent the significance level for the hypothesis test.  

t would represent the statistic (variable of interest)  

[tex]p_v[/tex] represent the p value

Hypothesis to test

We want to test if the true mean is equal to 51, the system of hypothesis would be:  

Null hypothesis:[tex]\mu = 51[/tex]  

Alternative hypothesis:[tex]\mu \neq 51[/tex]  

The statistic is given by:

[tex]t=\frac{\bar X-\mu_o}{\frac{s}{\sqrt{n}}}[/tex]  (1)  

Replacing we got:

[tex]t=\frac{50.857-51}{\frac{5.014}{\sqrt{7}}}=-0.075[/tex]    

The degrees of freedom are given by:

[tex]df=n-1=7-1=6[/tex]  

The p value for this case would be given:

[tex]p_v = 2*P(t_6 <-0.075)=0.943[/tex]

The p value for this case is lower than the significance level so then we have enough evidence to FAIL to reject the null hypothesis and we can conclude that the true mean is not significantly different from 51

The life of light bulbs is distributed normally. The standard deviation of the lifetime is 25 hours and the mean lifetime of a bulb is 510 hours. Find the probability of a bulb lasting for at most 552 hours.

Answers

Answer:

The  probability of a bulb lasting for at most 552 hours.

P(x>552)  = 0.0515

Step-by-step explanation:

Step(i):-

Given mean of the life time of a bulb = 510 hours

Standard deviation of the lifetime of a bulb = 25 hours

Let 'X' be the random variable in normal distribution

Let 'x' = 552

[tex]Z = \frac{x-mean}{S.D} = \frac{552-510}{25} =1.628[/tex]

Step(ii):-

The  probability of a bulb lasting for at most 552 hours.

P(x>552) = P(Z>1.63)

               = 1- P( Z< 1.63)

               =  1 - ( 0.5 + A(1.63)

              =   1- 0.5 - A(1.63)

              =   0.5 -A(1.63)

              =   0.5 -0.4485

             =  0.0515

Conclusion:-

The  probability of a bulb lasting for at most 552 hours.

P(x>552)  = 0.0515
