What is the sampling method used in the following scenario? The marketing manager for an electronics chain store wants information about the ages of its customers. Over the next two weeks, at each store location, 100 randomly selected customers are given questionnaires to fill out asking for information about age, as well as about other variables of interest.

Answers

Answer 1

Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:

The method applied in this scenario is called simple random sampling. A sample of 100 customers is chosen from a larger population of customers and each customer has the same chance of being selected for the survey at any given time. Also, the chance of selecting 100 customers from each store is the same during the sampling process. The order of sampling at each store does not follow a certain order, thus, It is different from systematic random sampling.

If a square with a width of 30 feet a length of 72 feet, and the diagonal is 78 feet, would the square have right angles. Yes or No answer please explain

Answers

Yes. Use the Pythagorean theorem. 30 would be a. 72 would be B. 78 would be C.
Formula:
A^2 + B^2= C^2
A squared Plus B squared equals C squared

30 squared is 900
72 squared is 5184
900+5184 = 6084

78 squared is 6084

Therefore the triangle has a right angle.

A student carried out an experiment to determine the amount of vitamin C in a tablet sample. He performed 5 trials to produce the following results: 490 mg, 502 mg, 505 mg, 495mg, and 492 mg. The manufacturer claims that the tablet contains 500 mg of vitamin C. Do an appropriate statistical analysis to find out whether the results obtained by the student is consistent with bottle claim.

Answers

Answer:

There is not enough evidence to support the claim that the amount of vitamin C in a tablet sample is different from 500 mg.

P-value = 0.166.

Step-by-step explanation:

We start by calculating the mean and standard deviation of the sample:

[tex]M=\dfrac{1}{n}\sum_{i=1}^n\,x_i\\\\\\M=\dfrac{1}{5}(490+502+505+495+492)\\\\\\M=\dfrac{2484}{5}\\\\\\M=496.8\\\\\\s=\sqrt{\dfrac{1}{n-1}\sum_{i=1}^n\,(x_i-M)^2}\\\\\\s=\sqrt{\dfrac{1}{4}((490-496.8)^2+(502-496.8)^2+(505-496.8)^2+(495-496.8)^2+(492-496.8)^2)}\\\\\\s=\sqrt{\dfrac{166.8}{4}}\\\\\\s=\sqrt{41.7}=6.5\\\\\\[/tex]

Then, we can perform the hypothesis t-test for the mean.

The claim is that the amount of vitamin C in a tablet sample is different from 500 mg.

Then, the null and alternative hypothesis are:

[tex]H_0: \mu=500\\\\H_a:\mu< 500[/tex]

The significance level is 0.05.

The sample has a size n=5.

The sample mean is M=496.8.

As the standard deviation of the population is not known, we estimate it with the sample standard deviation, that has a value of s=6.5.

The estimated standard error of the mean is computed using the formula:

[tex]s_M=\dfrac{s}{\sqrt{n}}=\dfrac{6.5}{\sqrt{5}}=2.907[/tex]

Then, we can calculate the t-statistic as:

[tex]t=\dfrac{M-\mu}{s/\sqrt{n}}=\dfrac{496.8-500}{2.907}=\dfrac{-3.2}{2.907}=-1.1[/tex]

The degrees of freedom for this sample size are:

[tex]df=n-1=5-1=4[/tex]

This test is a left-tailed test, with 4 degrees of freedom and t=-1.1, so the P-value for this test is calculated as (using a t-table):

[tex]\text{P-value}=P(t<-1.1)=0.166[/tex]

As the P-value (0.166) is bigger than the significance level (0.05), the effect is not significant.

The null hypothesis failed to be rejected.

There is not enough evidence to support the claim that the amount of vitamin C in a tablet sample is different from 500 mg.

Answers

Answer:

[tex] 9.9676 - 2.326*0.5904 =8.594[/tex]

[tex] 9.9676 + 2.326*0.5904 =11.341[/tex]

Step-by-step explanation:

Notation

[tex]\bar X[/tex] represent the sample mean

[tex]\mu[/tex] population mean (variable of interest)

s represent the sample standard deviation

n represent the sample size  

Solution to the problem

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)

For this case the 9% confidence interval is given by:

[tex] 8.8104 \leq \mu \leq 11.1248[/tex]

We can calculate the mean with the following:

[tex]\bar X = \frac{8.8104 +11.1248}{2}= 9.9676[/tex]

And we can find the margin of error with:

[tex] ME= \frac{11.1248- 8.8104}{2}= 1.1572[/tex]

The margin of error for this case is given by:

[tex] ME = t_{\alpha/2}\frac{s}{\sqrt{n}} = t_{\alpha/2} SE[/tex]

And we can solve for the standard error:

[tex] SE = \frac{ME}{t_{\alpha/2}}[/tex]

The critical value for 95% confidence using the normal standard distribution is approximately 1.96 and replacing we got:

[tex] SE = \frac{1.1572}{1.96}= 0.5904[/tex]

Now for the 98% confidence interval the significance is [tex]\alpha=1-0.98= 0.02[/tex] and [tex]\alpha/2 = 0.01[/tex] the critical value would be 2.326 and then the confidence interval would be:

[tex] 9.9676 - 2.326*0.5904 =8.594[/tex]

[tex] 9.9676 + 2.326*0.5904 =11.341[/tex]

Answers

Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:

The question is incomplete. The complete question is:

The mean annual tuition and fees for a sample of 15 private colleges was $35,500 with a standard deviation of $6500. A dotplot shows that it is reasonable to assume that the population is approximately normal. You wish to test whether the mean tuition and fees for private colleges is different from $32,500. State the null and alternate hypotheses. A) H0: 4 = 32,500, H:4=35,500 C) H: 4 = 35,500, H7:35,500 B) H: 4 = 32,500, H : 4 # 32,500 D) H0:41 # 32,500, H : 4 = 32,500

Solution

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 = 32500

For the alternative hypothesis,

Ha: µ ≠ 32500

This is a two tailed test.

Since the number of samples is small and the population standard deviation is not given, the distribution is a student's t.

Since n = 15,

Degrees of freedom, df = n - 1 = 15 - 1 = 14

t = (x - µ)/(s/√n)

Where

x = sample mean = 35500

µ = population mean = 32500

s = samples standard deviation = 6500

t = (35500 - 32500)/(6500/√15) = 1.79

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

p = 0.095

Assuming alpha = 0.05

Since alpha, 0.05 < than the p value, 0.095, then we would fail to reject the null hypothesis.

Answers

Answer:

The value of the sample mean resonance frequency is 112Hz

Step-by-step explanation:

A confidence interval has two bounds, a lower bound and an upper bound.

A confidence interval is symmetric, which means that the point estimate used is the mid point between these two bounds, that is, the mean of the two bounds.

In this problem, we have that:

Lower bound: 111.6

Upper bound: 112.4

Sample mean: (111.6 + 112.4)/2 = 112Hz

The value of the sample mean resonance frequency is 112Hz

The value of the sample mean resonance frequency is 112 Hz.

What is the value of the sample mean resonance frequency?

The value of the sample mean resonance frequency is equivalent to the average of the upper limit and the lower limit.

The sample mean resonance frequency = (lower limit + upper limit) / 2

(111.6 +112.4) / 2

= 224 / 2

For what sample size, n, will the sampling distribution of sample proportions have a standard deviation of 0.02

Answers

Answer:

For a sample size of n = 609.

Step-by-step explanation:

Central limit theorem for proportions:

For a proportion p in a sample of size n, the sampling distribution of the sample proportion will be approximately normal with mean [tex]\mu = p[/tex] and standard deviation [tex]s = \sqrt{\frac{p(1-p)}{n}}[/tex]

In this question:

We have that p = 0.58.

We have to find n for which s = 0.02. So

[tex]s = \sqrt{\frac{p(1-p)}{n}}[/tex]

[tex]0.02 = \sqrt{\frac{0.58*0.42}{n}}[/tex]

[tex]0.02\sqrt{n} = \sqrt{0.58*0.42}[/tex]

[tex]\sqrt{n} = \frac{\sqrt{0.58*0.42}}{0.02}[/tex]

[tex](\sqrt{n})^{2} = (\frac{\sqrt{0.58*0.42}}{0.02})^{2}[/tex]

[tex]n = 609[/tex]

For a sample size of n = 609.

A sector of angle 125° is revomed from a thin circular sheet of radius 18cm. it is then folded with straight edges coinciding to form a right circular cone. what are the steps you would use to calculate the base radius, the semi- vertical, and the volume of the cone?​

Answers

Answer:

Volume of the cone is 1883.7 cm³

Step-by-step explanation:

The circumference of the full circle with radius 18 cm :

360 := 2*π*18 = 36π cm

125 := 125/360 * 36π

The new circumference is maller:

36π - 125/360 * 36π

36π * 0.652(7)

Calculate the new r based on the new circomference:

2*π * r = 36π * 0.652(7)

r = 36π/2π * 0.652(7)

r = 18 * 0.652(7)

r = 11.75 cm

Based on this radius you can calculate the area of the base of the cone.

area base = π*(11.75)²

The Volume V of this cone = 1/3 π r² * h

You can calculate the height h by using Pythagoras theorum.

The sector is the hypothenusa= 18 cm

The h is the height, which is the "unknown"

The r is the new radius = 11.75 cm

s² = r² + h²

h² = s² - r²

h = √(s² - r²)

h = √(18² - 11.75²)

h = 13.6358901432946 cm

h = 13.636 cm

V cone

V = 1/3 π 11.75² * h

V = 1/3 π 11.75² * √(18² - 11.75²)

V = 1/3 π 11.75² * 13.636

V = 1883.7 cm³

Answer:

B

Step-by-step explanation:

It is known that 4% of children carry a certain virus, but a leading health researcher suspects that the percentage is actually higher. Which of the following provides the most convincing evidence to support the researcher's suspicion?
A. Out of 5,000 randomly chosen children, 210 children carry the virus.
B. Out of 60 randomly chosen children, 3 children carry the virus.
C. Out of 5,000 randomly chosen children, 250 children carry the virus.
D. Out of 20 randomly chosen children, 1 child carries the virus.

Answers

Answer:

(C)Out of 5,000 randomly chosen children, 250 children carry the virus.

Step-by-step explanation:

[tex]\text{Option A}: \dfrac{210}{5000}=0.042=4.2\% \\\text{Option B}: \dfrac{3}{60}=0.05=5\% \\\text{Option C}: \dfrac{250}{5000}=0.05=5\% \\\text{Option D}: \dfrac{1}{20}=0.05=5\%[/tex]

The higher the research sample, the more credible the results. In options A and C, the research sample was 5000. However, since the relative frequency of children carrying the virus is 5% in both, we take the result with a higher number of positives.

Option C is the correct option.

Answers

Answer : The value of x is 4.1 cm.

Step-by-step explanation :

As we know that the perpendicular dropped from the center divides the chord into two equal parts.

That means,

AB = CB = [tex]\frac{15.6cm}{2}=7.8cm[/tex]

Now we have o calculate the value of x by using Pythagoras theorem.

Using Pythagoras theorem in ΔOBA :

[tex](Hypotenuse)^2=(Perpendicular)^2+(Base)^2[/tex]

[tex](OA)^2=(OB)^2+(BA)^2[/tex]

Now put all the values in the above expression, we get the value of side OB.

[tex](8.8)^2=(x)^2+(7.8)^2[/tex]

[tex]x=\sqrt{(8.8)^2-(7.8)^2}[/tex]

[tex]x=\sqrt{77.44-60.84}[/tex]

[tex]x=\sqrt{16.6}[/tex]

[tex]x=4.074\approx 4.1[/tex]

Therefore, the value of x is 4.1 cm.

Show that every triangle formed by the coordinate axes and a tangent line to y = 1/x ( for x > 0)

always has an area of 2 square units.

Hint: Find the equation of the tangent line at x = a. (It will contain a’s as well as x and y.) Then find the

x-and y-intercepts for that line to find the lengths of sides of the right triangle.

Answers

Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:

given a point [tex](x_0,y_0)[/tex] the equation of a line with slope m that passes through the  given point is

[tex]y-y_0 = m(x-x_0)[/tex] or equivalently

[tex] y = mx+(y_0-mx_0)[/tex].

Recall that a line of the form [tex]y=mx+b [/tex], the y intercept is b and the x intercept is [tex]\frac{-b}{m}[/tex].

So, in our case, the y intercept is [tex](y_0-mx_0)[/tex] and the x  intercept is [tex]\frac{mx_0-y_0}{m}[/tex].

In our case, we know that the line is tangent to the graph of 1/x. So consider a point over the graph [tex](x_0,\frac{1}{x_0})[/tex]. Which means that [tex]y_0=\frac{1}{x_0}[/tex]

The slope of the tangent line is given by the derivative of the function evaluated at [tex]x_0[/tex]. Using the properties of derivatives, we get

[tex]y' = \frac{-1}{x^2}[/tex]. So evaluated at [tex]x_0[/tex] we get [tex] m = \frac{-1}{x_0^2}[/tex]

Replacing the values in our previous findings we get that the y intercept is

[tex](y_0-mx_0) = (\frac{1}{x_0}-(\frac{-1}{x_0^2}x_0)) = \frac{2}{x_0}[/tex]

The x intercept is

[tex] \frac{mx_0-y_0}{m} = \frac{\frac{-1}{x_0^2}x_0-\frac{1}{x_0}}{\frac{-1}{x_0^2}} = 2x_0[/tex]

The triangle in consideration has height [tex]\frac{2}{x_0}[/tex] and base [tex]2x_0[/tex]. So the area is

[tex] \frac{1}{2}\frac{2}{x_0}\cdot 2x_0=2[/tex]

So regardless of the point we take on the graph, the area of the triangle is always 2.

Refer to the following frequency distribution of days absent during a calendar year by employees of a manufacturing company:_______.
Days Absent Number of employees
0 up to 3 60
3 up to 6 31
6 up to 9 14
9 up to 12 6
12 up to 15 2
How many employees were absent fewer than six days?

Answers

Answer:

91 employees

Step-by-step explanation:

To find the number of employees absent fewer than six days...add the frequency of those absent for 0 to 3 days and that of 3 to 6 days

The frequency of 0 to 3 days = 60

The frequency of 3 to 6 days = 31

Thus, the numbers of employees absent fewer than 6 days is 60+31 = 91

a) ∠Q and ∠Q' have the ratio 1:3          

  FALSE - The angles must be congruent (not proportional)

b) TS and T'S' have equal lengths

 FALSE - We can see that there is a dilation so they cannot be congruent.

c) RT and R'T' have equal lengths

 FALSE - We can see that there is a dilation so they cannot be congruent.

d) SR and S'R' have a ratio of 1:3

 TRUE! - The sides are proportional so we can use this to prove similarity.
