Answer:

1. Point estimate M (sample mean): 83.33

2. The lower bound is $73.36 and the upper bound is $93.30. One can be______% confident that the mean travel tax for all cities is between these values.

3. A. The researcher could decrease the level of confidence.

Step-by-step explanation:

A point esimate for the population mean travel tax can be done with the sample mean.

We can calculate the sample mean as:

[tex]M=\dfrac{1}{n}\sum_{i=1}^n\,x_i\\\\\\M=\dfrac{1}{8}(67.85+78.62+70.28+84.03+79.28+87.72+101.54+97.28)\\\\\\M=\dfrac{666.6}{8}\\\\\\M=83.33\\\\\\[/tex]

2. We have to calculate a 95% confidence interval for the mean.

The sample mean is M=83.33.

The sample size is N=8.

The population standard deviation is not known, so we have to estimate it from the sample standard deviation and use a t-students distribution to calculate the critical value.

We calculate the sample standard deviation as:

[tex]s=\sqrt{\dfrac{1}{n-1}\sum_{i=1}^n\,(x_i-M)^2}\\\\\\s=\sqrt{\dfrac{1}{7}((67.85-83.33)^2+(78.62-83.33)^2+(70.28-83.33)^2+. . . +(97.28-83.33)^2)}\\\\\\s=\sqrt{\dfrac{994.49}{7}}\\\\\\s=\sqrt{142.07}=11.92\\\\\\[/tex]

The standard error is:

[tex]s_M=\dfrac{s}{\sqrt{N}}=\dfrac{11.92}{\sqrt{8}}=\dfrac{11.92}{2.828}=4.214[/tex]

The degrees of freedom for this sample size are:

[tex]df=n-1=8-1=7[/tex]

The t-value for a 95% confidence interval and 7 degrees of freedom is t=2.36.

The margin of error (MOE) can be calculated as:

[tex]MOE=t\cdot s_M=2.36 \cdot 4.214=9.97[/tex]

Then, the lower and upper bounds of the confidence interval are:

[tex]LL=M-t \cdot s_M = 83.33-9.97=73.36\\\\UL=M+t \cdot s_M = 83.33+9.97=93.30[/tex]

The 95% confidence interval for the mean travel tax is (73.36, 93.30).

We can be 95% confident that the true mean travel tax is within this interval.

3.. If we have no access to additional data, we can not decrease the standard deviation or increase the sample size.

The only way to have a narrower confidence interval is decreasing its level of confidence. With the same sample information, the lower the confidence, the narrower is the interval.

The horizontal asymptote of the function f(x) = (x-2)/(x-3)² is at y = 0 which is the x-axis.

An asymptote is a line that is approached by a curve but never touches it. In other words, an asymptote is a line where the graph of a function converges.

Because a horizontal asymptote is a horizontal line, its equation is of the form y = k. The horizontal asymptote of a rational function is at y = 0, which is the x-axis if the degree of the numerator is smaller than the degree of the denominator.

Here, the function is f(x) = (x-2)/(x-3)². Here the degree of the numerator of this rational function is 1 and the degree of the denominator is 2. Since 1<2, the horizontal asymptote is at y = 0 which is the x-axis.

The horizontal asymptote of the function f(x) = (x-2)/(x-3)² is at y = 0 which is the x-axis.

Step-by-step explanation:

Given the 3* 3 matrices [tex]\left[\begin{array}{ccc}0&4&1\\5&-3&0\\2&3&1\end{array}\right][/tex], to compute the determinant using the first row means using the row values [0 4 1 ] to compute the determinant. Note that the signs on the values on the first row are +0, -4 and +1

Calculating the determinant;

[tex]= +0\left[\begin{array}{cc}-3&0\\3&1\\\end{array}\right] -4\left[\begin{array}{cc}5&0\\2&1\\\end{array}\right] +1\left[\begin{array}{cc}5&-3\\2&3\\\end{array}\right] \\\\= 0 - 4[5(1)-2(0)] +1[5(3)-2(-3)]\\= 0 -4[5-0]+1[15+6]\\= 0-20+21\\= 1[/tex]

The determinant is 1 using the first row as co-factor

Similarly, using the second column [tex]\left[\begin{array}{c}4\\-3\\3\end{array}\right][/tex] as the cofactor, the determinant will be expressed as shown;

Note that the signs on the values are -4, +(-3) and -3.

Calculating the determinant;

[tex]= -4\left[\begin{array}{cc}5&0\\2&1\\\end{array}\right] -3\left[\begin{array}{cc}0&1\\2&1\\\end{array}\right] -3\left[\begin{array}{cc}0&1\\5&0\\\end{array}\right] \\\\= -4[5(1)-2(0)] - 3[0(1)-2(1)] -3[(0)-5(1)]\\= -4[5-0] -3[0-2]-3[0-5]\\= -20+6+15\\= -20+21\\= 1[/tex]

The determinant is also 1 using the second column as co factor.

It can be concluded that the same value of the determinant will be arrived at no matter the cofactor we choose to use.

Answer:

There is enough paint to cover the tank with one layer of paint.

Step-by-step explanation:

Given the cilindrical configuration of the tank and supposing that only external face must be painted, the surface area of the section (lateral wall + lid) can be calculated by the following expression:

[tex]A_{s} = 2\pi\cdot r\cdot h + \pi\cdot r^{2}[/tex]

Where [tex]r[/tex] and [tex]h[/tex] represent the radius and the height of the cube, respectively.

If [tex]r = 0.55\,m[/tex] (a diameter is two times the length of radius) and [tex]h = 1.4\,m[/tex], the intended surface area is:

[tex]A_{s} = 2\pi\cdot (0.55\,m)\cdot (1.1\,m)+\pi\cdot (0.55\,m)^{2}[/tex]

[tex]A_{s} \approx 4.751\,m^{2}[/tex]

It is known that 250 mL of paint are needed to cover a square meter of the surface area, the needed amount of paint to cover the required area is estimated by simple rule of three:

[tex]Q = \frac{4.751\,m^{2}}{1\,m^{2}}\times (250\,mL)[/tex]

[tex]Q = 1187.75\,mL\,(1.188\,L)[/tex]

In consequence, there is enough paint to cover the tank with one layer of paint.

Step-by-step explanation:

[tex]x = \frac{ - b \frac{ + }{ - } \sqrt{ {b}^{2} - 4ac } }{2a} [/tex]

The quadratic formula is honestly the most straightforward way of solving here.

Your other options are completing the square (which is the same thing as the quadratic formula but it's good to know that method if you have to take Integral Calculus at some point) or maybe factoring by grouping if it's appropriate. But the quadratic formula will work for you in all three equations:

1) a=1, b=0, c=8

This reduces pretty quickly into x=8i,-8i due to the negative under the radical. (Actually we didn't even really need the formula here.)

2) a=-9, b=4, c=-10

This reduces into x=(-4+i√(344))/-18, (-4-i√(344))/-18 and doesn't go any further because 344 isn't a perfect square.

3) a=1, b=8, c=17

This reduces to x=(-4+i), (-4-i)

So those are the answers for each.

Step-by-step explanation: it’s on khan ,

Answer:

[tex]0.0553 - 1.96\sqrt{\frac{0.0553(1-0.0553)}{380}}=0.0323[/tex]

[tex]0.0553 + 1.96\sqrt{\frac{0.0553(1-0.0553)}{380}}=0.0783[/tex]

Step-by-step explanation:

The info given is:

[tex] X= 21[/tex] number of students who said that they planned to work in a rural community

[tex] n= 380[/tex] represent the sample size selected

[tex]\hat p =\frac{21}{380}= 0.0553[/tex] the estimated proportion of students who said that they planned to work in a rural community

In order to find the critical value we need to take in count that we are finding the interval for a proportion, so on this case we need to use the z distribution. Since our interval is at 95% of confidence, our significance level would be given by [tex]\alpha=1-0.95=0.05[/tex] and [tex]\alpha/2 =0.025[/tex]. And the critical value would be given by:

[tex]z_{\alpha/2}=-1.96, z_{1-\alpha/2}=1.96[/tex]

The confidence interval for the mean is given by the following formula:  

[tex]\hat p \pm z_{\alpha/2}\sqrt{\frac{\hat p (1-\hat p)}{n}}[/tex]

Replpacing we got:

[tex]0.0553 - 1.96\sqrt{\frac{0.0553(1-0.0553)}{380}}=0.0323[/tex]

[tex]0.0553 + 1.96\sqrt{\frac{0.0553(1-0.0553)}{380}}=0.0783[/tex]

A mean for estimation is the minimum-maximum variation estimate's C.I. The % of pupils planning to work in a rural community alters between 0.0323 and 0.0783.

Confidence interval:

Let's [tex]p^{}[/tex] represent the sampling fraction of the people who promised to work in a rural area.

Sample size:

[tex]n = 380[/tex]

x: the large number the pupils expected to work in a rural setting

[tex]p^{} = \frac{x}{n} \\\\p^{} = \frac{21}{ 380} = 0.0553\\\\(1- \alpha)\ \ 100\%[/tex]confidence for true proportion:

[tex]( p^{}\ \pm Z_{\frac{\alpha}{2}} \times \sqrt{p^{} \times \frac{(1-p^{})}{n}} ) \\\\[/tex]

For [tex]95\%[/tex]confidence interval:

[tex]\to 1 - \alpha = 0.95[/tex]

When:

[tex]\to \alpha = 0.05[/tex]

Calculating the value of Z by using the table:

[tex]\to Z_{0.025} = 1.96[/tex]

When the  [tex]95\%[/tex] of the confidence interval:

[tex]\to (0.0553 \pm Z_{0.025} \times \sqrt{(0.0553 \times \frac{(1- 0.0553)}{380}})\\\\\to (0.0553 - Z_{0.025} \times \sqrt{(0.0553 \times \frac{(1- 0.0553)}{380})},0.0553 + Z_{0.025} \times \sqrt{(0.0553 \times \frac{(1- 0.0553)}{380}))}\\\\[/tex]

by solving the value we get:

[tex]\to ( 0.0323 , 0.0783 )[/tex]

Step-by-step explanation:

In probability theory

[tex]P$(A or B)=P(A)+P(B)$-$P(A and B)[/tex]

Let the event that the show had animals in it = A

P(A)=0.7

Let the event that the show aired more than 10 times =B

P(B)=0.4

P(A and B)= 0.2

[tex]P$(A or B)$=0.7+0.4-0.2=0.9[/tex]

Therefore, the equation which  shows the correct use of the addition rule to determine the probability that a randomly selected show had animals in it or aired more than 10 times is:

[tex]0.7+0.4-0.2=0.9[/tex]

The correct option is E.

Answer:

z = -17.67 + i3.43

Step-by-step explanation:

Let us apply the formula z = r(cos Ф + i sin Ф), given 18(cos169° + isin169°) -

z = 18( cos169 + isin169 ),

z = r(cos Ф + i sin Ф)

Now we can solve this question in the form z = a + bi, in this case where a = 18 cos169, and b = 18 sin169. This is as a = r cos Ф and b = r sin Ф -

sin169 is positive, while cos169 is negative, thus -

a = -17.6692893021...,

b = 3.43456191678...

Rectangular Form, z = -17.67 + i3.43

x = 5, AB=5, BC = 15

Step-by-step explanation:

AC = AB + BC (Segment Addition)

AC= 20, AB =x Bc = 3x,

20= x+3x 20=4x

x=5

AB=x, AB =5

BC=3x BC= 15

The segment addition postulate states gives the value of x as 5, given

that the sum of x and 3·x is 20.

Responses:

From the given diagram, we have;

[tex]\overline{AB}[/tex] = x

[tex]\overline{BC}[/tex] = 3·x

According to segment addition postulate we have;

[tex]\overline{AB}[/tex] + [tex]\overline{BC}[/tex] = [tex]\overline{AC}[/tex] = 20 inches

Which gives;

x + 3·x = 20

Therefore;

4·x = 20

[tex]x = \dfrac{20}{4} = 5[/tex]

[tex]\mathbf{\overline{BC}}[/tex] = 3·x  

[tex]\mathbf{\overline{BC}}[/tex] = 3 × 5 = 15

Answer:

[tex]P(X<0.4375)=P(\frac{X-\mu}{\sigma}<\frac{0.4375-\mu}{\sigma})=P(Z<\frac{0.4375-0.635}{0.082})=P(z<-2.41)[/tex]

And we can find this probability using the z table and we got:

[tex]P(z<-2.41)=0.0080[/tex]

Step-by-step explanation:

Let X the random variable that represent the thickness of a population, and for this case we know the distribution for X is given by:

[tex]X \sim N(0.635,0.082)[/tex]  

Where [tex]\mu=0.635[/tex] and [tex]\sigma=0.032[/tex]

We are interested on this probability

[tex]P(X<0.4375)[/tex]

And the best way to solve this problem is using the normal standard distribution and the z score given by:

[tex]z=\frac{x-\mu}{\sigma}[/tex]

If we apply this formula to our probability we got this:

[tex]P(X<0.4375)=P(\frac{X-\mu}{\sigma}<\frac{0.4375-\mu}{\sigma})=P(Z<\frac{0.4375-0.635}{0.082})=P(z<-2.41)[/tex]

And we can find this probability using the z table and we got:

The 99​% confidence interval estimate of the percentage of girls born is between 85.46% and 94.54%.

Usually, babies are equally as likely to be boys or girls. Here, it is desired to increase the probability of conceiving a girl, which is achieved, considering the lower bound of the confidence interval is considerably above 50%.

Step-by-step explanation:

Confidence interval for the proportion:

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].

For this problem, we have that:

[tex]n = 290, \pi = \frac{261}{290} = 0.9[/tex]

99% confidence level

So [tex]\alpha = 0.01[/tex], z is the value of Z that has a pvalue of [tex]1 - \frac{0.01}{2} = 0.995[/tex], so [tex]Z = 2.575[/tex].

The lower limit of this interval is:

[tex]\pi - z\sqrt{\frac{\pi(1-\pi)}{n}} = 0.9 - 2.575\sqrt{\frac{0.9*0.1}{290}} = 0.8546[/tex]

The upper limit of this interval is:

[tex]\pi + z\sqrt{\frac{\pi(1-\pi)}{n}} = 0.9 + 2.575\sqrt{\frac{0.9*0.1}{290}} = 0.9454[/tex]

Percentage:

Proportion multplied by 100.

0.8546*100 = 85.46%

0.9454*100 = 94.54%

The 99​% confidence interval estimate of the percentage of girls born is between 85.46% and 94.54%.

Based on the​ result, does the method appear to be​ effective?

Usually, babies are equally as likely to be boys or girls. Here, it is desired to increase the probability of conceiving a girl, which is achieved, considering the lower bound of the confidence interval is considerably above 50%.

Answer:

246000 in scientific notation is 2.46e5, or 2.46 x 10^5

Step-by-step explanation:

246000, move the decimal place 5 places to the left.

2.4x10^5

Answer:

2.46 × 10⁵

Step-by-step explanation:

The decimal point is after the first non-zero digit.

⇒ 2.46

Multiply the number with base 10 and an exponent which will equal to 246,000.

⇒ 10⁵

Answer:

x = 5 and y = -4

Step-by-step explanation:

y = - 3x + 11 ______(1)

5x + y = 21______(2)

Substitute (1) into (2).

5x + (-3x + 11) = 21

5x - 3x + 11 = 21

2x = 21-11

2x = 10

x = 10/2

x = 5

Now substitute x = 5 into (1).

y = -3(5) + 11

y = -15 + 11

y = -4

Hence, x = 5 and y = -4

The slope greater than one would be the last image, because for every step in x, you get more than one y step.

The slope between 1 and 0 would be the second image

And the slope less than 0 would be the third image

Answer:

a = 4 /b

or ab = 4

Step-by-step explanation:

An inverse relation is given by

a = k/b where k is the constant

Rewriting

ab = k

12 * 1/3 = k

4 = k

a = 4 /b

or ab = 4
