A market research firm supplies manufacturers with estimates of the retail sales of their products from samples of retail stores. Marketing managers are prone to look at the estimate and ignore sampling error. A random sample of 36 stores this year shows mean sales of 83 units of a small appliance with a standard deviation of 5 units. During the same point in time last year, a random sample of 49 stores had mean sales of 78 units with standard deviation 3 units.Required:Construct a 95 percent confidence interval for the difference in population means.

Answers

Answer 1

Answer:

The 95% confidence interval for the difference in population means is (−26.325175  , 36.325175)

Step-by-step explanation:

Given that :

sample size n₁ = 36

sample mean [tex]\over\ x[/tex]₁ = 83

standard deviation [tex]\sigma[/tex]₁ = 5

sample size n₂ = 49

sample mean [tex]\over\ x[/tex]₂= 78

standard deviation [tex]\sigma[/tex]₂ = 3

The objective is to construct a 95% confidence interval for the difference in the population means

Let the population means be [tex]\mu_1[/tex]  and  [tex]\mu_2[/tex]

The 95% confidence interval or the difference in population means can be calculated by using the formula;

[tex](\overline{x_1} - \overline{x_2}) \pm t_{\alpha /2} \ \times s_{p}[/tex]

where;

the pooled standard deviation  [tex]s_{p} = \dfrac{(n_1-1)s_1^2+(n_2-1)s^2_2}{n_1+n_2-2}[/tex]

[tex]s_{p} = \dfrac{(36-1)5^2+(49-1)3^2}{36+49-2}[/tex]

[tex]s_{p} = \dfrac{(35)25+(48)9}{83}[/tex]

[tex]s_{p} = \dfrac{875+432}{83}[/tex]

[tex]s_{p} = \dfrac{1307}{83}[/tex]

[tex]s_p[/tex] = 15.75

degree of freedom = [tex]n_1 +n_2 -2[/tex]

degree of freedom = 36+49 -2

degree of freedom = 85 - 2

degree of freedom = 83

The Critical t- value 95% CI at df = 83 is

t  critical = T.INV.2T(0.05, 83) = 1.9889

Therefore, for the population mean , we have:

= (83 - 78) ± (1.9889 × 15.75)

= 5 ± 31.325175

= 5  - 31.325175 , 5 + 31.325175

= (−26.325175  , 36.325175)

It has been reported that 20.4% of incoming freshmen indicate that they will major in business or a related field. A random sample of 400 incoming college freshmen was asked their preference, and 95 replied that they were considering business as a major. Estimate the true proportion of freshman business majors with 98% confidence. Does your interval contain 20.4%?

Answers

Answer:

The  98% confidence interval

                         [tex]0.1884 < p < 0.2876[/tex]

The confidence interval contains  20.4%

Step-by-step explanation:

From the question we are told that

    The sample size is  n =  400

The number that replied that they were considering business as a major [tex]x = 95[/tex]

  The  sample proportion is mathematically  evaluated as

          [tex]\r p = \frac{95}{400}[/tex]

         [tex]\r p = 0.238[/tex]

Given that the confidence level 98% then the level of significance is evaluated as

      [tex]\alpha = 100 - 98[/tex]

     [tex]\alpha = 2 \%[/tex]

     [tex]\alpha = 0.02[/tex]

Next we obtain the critical value of [tex]\frac{ \alpha }{2}[/tex]  from the normal distribution table is  

       [tex]Z_{\frac{ \alpha }{2} } = 2.33[/tex]

  Generally the margin of error is mathematically represented as

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

       [tex]E = 2.33 * \sqrt{ \frac{ 0.238 (1 - 0.238 )}{400} }[/tex]

        [tex]E = 0.0496[/tex]

The  98%  confidence interval is mathematically represented

   [tex]\r p - E < p < \r p + E[/tex]

 =>    [tex]0.238 - 0.0496 < p <0.238 + 0.0496[/tex]

=>      [tex]0.1884 < p < 0.2876[/tex]

A) Find the value of the constant C. I already have 1/24.
B) Find P(X < = 1, Y < = 1)
C) Find P(X + Y < = 1).

Answers

Answer:

A) C = 1/96

B) P(x<=1, y<=1) = 1/128 or 0.0078125 to 7 places

C) P(x+y<=1) = 5/2305, or 0.0021701 to 7 places

Step-by-step explanation:

f(x,y) = C x (1+y)

A)

To find C, we need to integrate the volume under region bound by

0 <= x <= 4, and

0 <= y <= 4

This volume equals 1.0.

Find integral,

int( int(f(x,y),x=0,4), y = 0,4) = 96C

therefore C = 1/96

or

F(x,y) = x (1+y) / 96  ............................(1)

B)

P(x<=1, y<=1)

Repeat the integral, substitute the appropriate limits,

P = int( int(F(x,y),x=0,1), y = 0,1)

= 1/128 or 0.0078125

P(x<=1, y<=1) = 1/128 or 0.0078125 to 7 places

C)

P(x+y<=1)

From the function, we know that this is going to be less than one half of the probability in (B), closer to 1/4 of the previous.

It will be again a double integral, as follows:

P = int( int(F(x,y),x=0,1-y), y = 0,1)

= 5/2304

= 0.0021701 (to 7 decimals)

P(x+y<=1) = 5/2305, or 0.0021701 to 7 places

•x=3
•y=3x
•y=3x+3
•y=-3x-3

Answers

Answer:

y=3x

Step-by-step explanation:

If the line cannot be in quadrants II or IV, it must pass through the origin(0,0) and be in quadrants I and III.

Substitute (0,0) for y and x to find the answer.

1) x=3, 0=3 NO

2) y=3x, 0=3(0), 0=0 YES

3) y=3x+3, 0=3(0)+3, 0=3 NO

4) y=-3x-3, 0=-3(0)-3, 0=-3 NO

So the answer must be 2) y=3x

Benjamin decides to treat himself to breakfast at his favorite restaurant. He orders chocolate milk that costs $3.25. Then, he wants to buy as many pancakes as he can, but he wants his bill to be at most $30 before tax. The restaurant only sells pancakes in stacks of 44 pancakes for $5.50 . Let S represent the number of stacks of pancakes that Benjamin buys. 1) Which inequality describes this scenario?2) What is the largest number of pancakes that Benjamin can afford?

Answers

Answer:

3.25 + 5.50S ≤ 30

Step-by-step explanation:

Given:

Chocolate milk cost $3.25.

Maximum bill that Benjamin wants = $30

Cost of a stack pancake(44) = $5.50

Let number of stacks of pancakes bought = S

Benjamin will spend all the money available on 1 chocolate milk and S number of stacks of pancakes.

Cost of 1 pancake = $5.50

Cost of S number of stacks of pancakes = S*5.50

=5.50S

Total money spent =$3.25+5.50S

The total money spent should either be lesser than or equal to $30

The inequality is

3.25 + 5.50S ≤ 30

Largest number of pancakes Benjamin can afford

3.25 + 5.50S ≤ 30

5.50S ≤ 30-3.25

5.50S ≤ 26.75

Divide both sides by 5.50

S ≤ 4.86

1 stack=44 pancakes

4.86 stacks= 4.86 *44

=213.84 pancakes

Answer:

3.25+5.50S≤30

A plot of land has vertices as follows, where each coordinate is a measurement in feet. Find the perimeter of the plot of land. (1,7),(7,7),(7,1),(1,1) please help and explain how to do this type of thing because i am lost

Answers

Answer:

Perimeter of ABCD = 36 ft

Step-by-step explanation:

Given:

A (1,7)

B (7,7)

C (7,1)

D (1,1)

Find:

Perimeter of ABCD

Computation:

Distance between two point = √(x1-x2)² + (y1-y2)²

So,

AB = √(1-7)²+(7-7)²

AB = 6 ft

BC = √(7-7)²+(7-1)²

BC = 6 ft

CD = √(7-1)²+(1-1)²

CD = 6 ft

DA = √(1-1)²+(1-7)²

DA = 6 ft

Perimeter of ABCD = AB + BC + CD + DA

Perimeter of ABCD = 6 + 6 + 6 +6

Perimeter of ABCD = 36 ft

The perimeter of the plot is the sum of side length of the plot of land.

The perimeter of the plot is 24 feet.

Represent the vertices as follows:

[tex]W = (1,7)[/tex]

[tex]X = (7,7)[/tex]

[tex]Y = (7,1)[/tex]

[tex]Z = (1,1)[/tex]

First, we calculate the side length using the following distance formula:

[tex]d = \sqrt{(x_1 - x_2)^2 + (y_1 - y_2)^2}[/tex]

So, we have:

[tex]WX = \sqrt{(1- 7)^2 + (7- 7)^2} = \sqrt{36} = 6[/tex]

[tex]XY = \sqrt{(7- 7)^2 + (7- 1)^2} = \sqrt{36} = 6[/tex]

[tex]YZ = \sqrt{(7- 1)^2 + (1- 1)^2} = \sqrt{36} = 6[/tex]

[tex]ZW = \sqrt{(1- 1)^2 + (1- 7)^2} = \sqrt{36} = 6[/tex]

The perimeter (P) is then calculated as follows:

[tex]P = WX + XY + YZ + ZW[/tex]

So, we have:

[tex]P = 6 + 6 + 6 + 6[/tex]

[tex]P = 24[/tex]

Hence, the perimeter of the plot of land is 24 feet.

A new soft drink is being market tested. A sample of 400 individuals participated in the taste test and 80 indicated they like the taste. At 95% confidence, test to determine if at least 22% of the population will like the new soft drink.


Required:

Determine the p-value.

Answers

Answer: p-value of the test  = 0.167

Step-by-step explanation:

Given that,

sample size n = 400

sample success X = 80

confidence = 95%

significance level = 1 - (95/100) = 0.05

This is the left tailed test .

The null and alternative hypothesis is

H₀ : p = 0.22

Hₐ : p < 0.22

P = x/n = 80/400 = 0.2

Standard deviation of proportion α = √{  (p ( 1 - p ) / n }

α = √ { ( 0.22 ( 1 - 0.22 ) / 400 }

α = √ { 0.1716 / 400 }

α = √0.000429

α = 0.0207

Test statistic

z = (p - p₀) / α

z = ( 0.2 - 0.22 ) / 0.0207

z = - 0.02 / 0.0207

z = - 0.9661

fail to reject null hypothesis.

P-value Approach

P-value = 0.167

As P-value >= 0.05, fail to reject null hypothesis.

Since test is left tailed so p-value of the test is 0.167. Since p-value is greater than 0.05 so we fail to reject the null hypothesis.

Lauren is a college sophomore majoring in business. This semester Lauren is taking courses in accounting, economics, management information systems, public speaking, and statistics. The sizes of these classes are, respectively, 375, 35, 45, 25, and 60.Required:Find the mean and the median of the class sizes. What is a better measure of Lauren's "typical class size"—the mean or the median?

Answers

Answer:

Mean = 108

Median = 45

The better measure of Lauren's "typical class size" is the Mean

Step-by-step explanation:

1. Calculating mean and median.

The mean is an important measure of central tendency, and it is the average of the measurement of a given set of data. It is calculated as follows:

[tex]Mean\ (\overline {X}) &= \frac{\sum X}{N}[/tex]

where X = individual data sets

N = total number of data

[tex]Mean= \frac{375\; +\ 35\ +\ 45\ +\ 25\ +\ 60}{5} \\=\frac{540}{5} \\= 108[/tex]

The Median divides the measurements into two equal parts, and in order to calculate the median, the distribution has to first be arranged in ascending or descending order. Arranging this series in descending order:

375, 60, 45, 35, 25

The formula for calculating median is given by:

[tex]M_{d} = \frac{N\ +\ 1}{2} th\ data\\\\=\frac{5\ +\ 1}{2}th\ data\\\\=\frac{6}{2} th\ data\\= 3rd\ data\\M_{d} = 45[/tex]

from the list or arranged data in descending order (375, 60, 45, 35, 25), the third data is 45.

Therefore, Median = 45

2. The better measure of typical class size is Mean because the mean depends on all the values of the data sets, whereas the median does not. When there are extreme values (outliers) the effect on the median is very small, whereas it is effectively captured by the mean.

Lydia drives from city a to city b to transport goods. her return speed is 3 times her departure speed and she takes 40 minutes less on her return trip. how long did her departure trip take?

Answers

Answer:

1 hour

Step-by-step explanation:

Hello, let's say that her departure trip takes t in minutes, as her return speed is 3 times her departure speed, she took t/3 for the return and we know that this 40 minutes less, so we can write.

t/3=t-40

We can multiply by 3

t = 3t -40*3 = 3t - 120

This is equivalent to

3t -120 = t

We subtract t

2t-120 = 0

2t = 120

We divide by 2

t = 120/2 = 60

So this is 60 minutes = 1 hour.
