A random sample of 1003 adult Americans was asked, "Do you pretty much think televisions are a necessity or a luxury you could do without?" Of the 1003 adults surveyed, 521 indicated that televisions are a luxury they could do without.

Requried:
a. Obtain a point estimate for the population proportion of adult Americans who believe that televisions are a luxury they could do without.
b. Verify that the requirements for constructing a confidence interval about p are satisfied.
c. Construct and interpret a 95% confidence interval for the population proportion of adult Americans who believe that televisions are a luxury they could do without.
d. Is it possible that a supermajority (more than 60%) of adult Americans believe that television is a luxury they could do without ? Is it likely?
e. Use the results of part (c) to construct a 95% confidence interval for the population proportion of adult Americans who believe that televisions are a necessity.

Answers

Answer 1

Answer:

a)0.519

b)requirements for constructing a confidence interval about p are satisfied.

c)0.488, and 0.550

d)yes this is because there is no possibility

that the true proportion is not captured in the confidence interval.

e)

0.450, 0.512

Step-by-step explanation:

a)The point estimate for the population proportion of adult Americans who believe that televisions are a luxury they could do without can be calculated as

521 of that adult that indicated that televisions are a luxury they could do without/1003 adults surveyed,

p = 521/1003

= 0.519.

b)

np(1-p)=1003×(0.519)×(1-0.519)

=250.39≥10 and the sample size is less than 5% of the population

therefore, requirements for constructing a confidence interval about p are satisfied.

c) we were given 95% confidence,

Then α=(1-0.95)

= 0.05

From the Z-tables,we can get the critical value is Z , which is (0.05/2) = Z (0.025) = 1.96

confidence interval can the be calculated using the formula below

- p ± Z*√ p (1 – p)/n

=0.519 ± 1.96√0.519×(1 – 0.519)/(1003)

= 0.519 ± 1.96×0.0158

0.519 ± 0.031

= 0.488, and 0.550

d) yes this is because there is no possibility

that the true proportion is not captured in the confidence interval.

e)the sample size can be calculated as

P=x/n

=(1003-521)/1003

=0.481

But we're given 95% confidence interval

Then

α=(1-0.95)=

0.05

From the Z-tables,we can get the critical value is Z , which is (0.05/2) = Z (0.025) = 1.96

Then convidence interval=

- p ± Z*√ p (1 – p)/n

=0.481 ± 1.96√0.481×(1 – 0.481)/(1003)

0.450, 0.512

State the correct polar coordinate for the graph shown.

Answers

Answer: Choice D.  (-2.5, 3pi/2)

One way to write this polar coordinate is to say (2.5, pi/2) meaning we move 2.5 units away from the origin toward the pi/2 direction

pi/2 radians = 90 degrees

An alternative is to write (-2.5, 3pi/2) which is where we aim at the 3pi/2 direction (270 degrees) and walk backward while still facing directly south, and we'll arrive at the same location.

What is the solution to 5x - 15 = 5(-4x - 3) ? Group of answer choices -12 6 0 -16

Answers

Answer:

x = 0

Step-by-step explanation:

5x - 15 = 5(-4x - 3)

Multiply the terms in the bracket

5x - 15 = - 20x - 15

Group like terms

Send the constants to the right side of the line and those with variables to the left side

That's

5x + 20x = - 15 + 15

Simplify

25x = 0

Divide both sides by 25

We have the final answer as

x = 0

Hope this helps you

Answer:

x=0

Step-by-step explanation:

5x - 15 = 5(-4x - 3)

To find the solution to this equation, we have to get x by itself on one side of the equation.

First, distribute the 5 on the right side. Multiply each term by 5.

5x - 15= (5*-4x) + (5*-3)

5x-15 = -20x + (5*-3)

5x-15= -20x -15

Next, add 20x to both sides of the equation.

(5x+20x) -15 = (-20x+20x) -15

(5+20x) -15 = -15

25x -15=-15

Next, add 15 to both sides of the equation.

25x -15 +15 = -15+15

25x= -15+15

25x=0

Finally, divide both sides of the equation by 25.

25x/25=0/25

x= 0/25

x= 0

The solution to this equation is x=0

(b) Type I error is that we conclude that test-takers who had completed the training showed a mean increase smaller than 30 points but in actual, the program raises SAT scores by an average of at least 30 points.

Step-by-step explanation:

We are given that a test-preparation company advertises that its training program raises SAT scores by an average of at least 30 points.

A random sample of test-takers who had completed the training showed a mean increase smaller than 30 points.

Let [tex]\mu[/tex] = average SAT score.

(a) So, Null Hypothesis, [tex]H_0[/tex] : [tex]\mu \geq[/tex] 30 points

Alternate Hypothesis, [tex]H_A[/tex] : [tex]\mu[/tex] < 30 points

Here, the null hypothesis states that the training program raises SAT scores by an average of at least 30 points.

On the other hand, the alternate hypothesis states that test-takers who had completed the training showed a mean increase smaller than 30 points.

(b) Type I error states the probability of rejecting the null hypothesis given the fact that null hypothesis is true.

According to the question, the Type I error is that we conclude that test-takers who had completed the training showed a mean increase smaller than 30 points but in actual, the program raises SAT scores by an average of at least 30 points.

The consequence of a Type I error is that we conclude the test-takers have low SAT scores but in actual they have an SAT score of at least 30 points.

Find the work W done by a force of 7pounds acting in the direction 30 degreesto the horizontal in moving an object 7feet from (0 comma 0 )to (7 comma 0 ).

Answers

Answer:

The work done by the force is 42.4 Joules

Step-by-step explanation:

The force F = 7 pounds

angle to the horizontal that the force acts ∅ = 30°

The object is moved a distance d = 7 feet

The coordinate  (0 comma 0 )to (7 comma 0 ), indicates that the movement started from the origin, and is along the x-axis.

The work done by this force = F cos ∅ x d

==> 7 cos 30° x 7

==> 7 x 0.866 x 7 = 42.4 Joules

Find a formula for the given polynomial.

Answers

In this question, we have to identify the zeros of the polynomial, along with a point, and then we get that the formula for the polynomial is:

[tex]p(x) = -0.5(x^3 - x^2 + 6x)[/tex]

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

Equation of a polynomial, according to it's zeros:

Given a polynomial f(x), this polynomial has roots such that it can be written as: , in which a is the leading coefficient.

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

Identifying the zeros:

Given the graph, the zeros are the points where the graph crosses the x-axis. In this question, they are:

[tex]x_1 = -2, x_2 = 0, x_3 = 3[/tex]

Thus

[tex]p(x) = a(x - x_{1})(x - x_{2})(x-x_3)[/tex]

[tex]p(x) = a(x - (-2))(x - 0)(x-3)[/tex]

[tex]p(x) = ax(x+2)(x-3)[/tex]

[tex]p(x) = ax(x^2 - x + 6)[/tex]

[tex]p(x) = a(x^3 - x^2 + 6x)[/tex]

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

Leading coefficient:

Passes through point (2,-8), that is, when [tex]x = 2, y = -8[/tex], which is used to find a. So

[tex]p(x) = a(x^3 - x^2 + 6x)[/tex]

[tex]-8 = a(2^3 - 2^2 + 6*2)[/tex]

[tex]16a = -8[/tex]

[tex]a = -\frac{8}{16} = -0.5[/tex]

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

Considering the zeros and the leading coefficient, the formula is:

[tex]p(x) = -0.5(x^3 - x^2 + 6x)[/tex]

Sociologists say that 90% of married women claim that their husband's mother is the biggest bone of contention in their marriages (sex and money are lower-rated areas of contention). Suppose that seven married women are having coffee together one morning. Find the following probabilities. (For each answer, enter a number. Round your answers to three decimal places.) (a) All of them dislike their mother-in-law. (b) None of them dislike their mother-in-law. (c) At least five of them dislike their mother-in-law. (d) No more than four of them dislike their mother-in-law.

Answers

For each married women, there are only two possible outcomes. Either they dislike their mother in law, or they do not. The probability of a women disliking their mother in law is independent of any other women, which means that the binomial probability distribution is used to solve this question.

Binomial probability distribution

The binomial probability is the probability of exactly x successes on n repeated trials, and X can only have two outcomes.

[tex]P(X = x) = C_{n,x}.p^{x}.(1-p)^{n-x}[/tex]

In which [tex]C_{n,x}[/tex] is the number of different combinations of x objects from a set of n elements, given by the following formula.

[tex]C_{n,x} = \frac{n!}{x!(n-x)!}[/tex]

And p is the probability of X happening.

90% of married women claim that their husband's mother is the biggest bone of contention in their marriages (sex and money are lower-rated areas of contention).

This means that [tex]p = 0.9[/tex]

Suppose that seven married women are having coffee together one morning.

This means that [tex]n = 7[/tex]

Question a:

This is P(X = 7), so:

[tex]P(X = x) = C_{n,x}.p^{x}.(1-p)^{n-x}[/tex]

[tex]P(X = 7) = C_{7,7}.(0.9)^{7}.(0.1)^{0} = 0.4783[/tex]

Thus, 0.4783 = 47.83% probability that all of them dislike their mother-in-law.

Question b:

This is P(X = 0), so:

[tex]P(X = x) = C_{n,x}.p^{x}.(1-p)^{n-x}[/tex]

[tex]P(X = 0) = C_{7,0}.(0.9)^{0}.(0.1)^{7} = 10^{-7}[/tex]

Thus, [tex]10^{-7}[/tex] probability that none of them dislike their mother-in-law.

Question c:

This is:

[tex]P(X \geq 5) = P(X = 5) + P(X = 6) + P(X = 7)[/tex], so:

[tex]P(X = x) = C_{n,x}.p^{x}.(1-p)^{n-x}[/tex]

[tex]P(X = 5) = C_{7,5}.(0.9)^{5}.(0.1)^{2} = 0.1240[/tex]

[tex]P(X = 6) = C_{7,6}.(0.9)^{6}.(0.1)^{1} = 0.3720[/tex]

[tex]P(X = 7) = C_{7,7}.(0.9)^{7}.(0.1)^{0} = 0.4783[/tex]

Then

[tex]P(X \geq 5) = P(X = 5) + P(X = 6) + P(X = 7) = 0.1240 + 0.3720 + 0.4783 = 0.9743[/tex]

0.9743 = 97.43% probability that at least five of them dislike their mother-in-law.

Question d:

This is:

[tex]P(X \leq 4) = 1 - P(X > 4)[/tex]

Considering [tex]P(X > 4) = P(X \geq 5) = 0.9743[/tex]:

[tex]P(X \leq 4) = 1 - P(X > 4) = 1 - 0.9743 = 0.0257[/tex]

Thus, 0.0257 = 2.57% probability that no more than four of them dislike their mother-in-law.

Answer:

[tex](1,-1)[/tex] and [tex](3.5,1.5)[/tex]

Step-by-step explanation:

Given

[tex]y = 2x^2 - 8x+5[/tex]

[tex]y = x - 2[/tex]

Required

Determine the solution

Substitute x - 2 for y in [tex]y = 2x^2 - 8x+5[/tex]

[tex]x - 2 = 2x^2 - 8x+5[/tex]

Collect like terms

[tex]0 = 2x^2 - 8x - x + 5 + 2[/tex]

[tex]0 = 2x^2 - 9x + 7[/tex]

Expand the expression

[tex]0 = 2x^2 - 7x - 2x+ 7[/tex]

Factorize

[tex]0 = x(2x - 7) -1(2x - 7)[/tex]

[tex]0 = (x-1)(2x - 7)[/tex]

Split the expression

[tex]x - 1 = 0[/tex] or [tex]2x - 7 = 0[/tex]

Solve for x in both cases

[tex]x = 1[/tex] or [tex]2x = 7[/tex]

[tex]x = 1[/tex] or [tex]2x/2 = 7/2[/tex]

[tex]x = 1[/tex] or [tex]x = 3.5[/tex]

Recall that

[tex]y = x - 2[/tex]

When [tex]x = 1[/tex]

[tex]y = 1 -2[/tex]

[tex]y = -1[/tex]

When [tex]x = 3.5[/tex]

[tex]y = 3.5 - 2[/tex]

[tex]y = 1.5[/tex]

Hence, the solution is;

The return on a particular index of stocks (against which the mutual funds are compared) was 11.5%. Therefore, the test statistic is 1.68. When testing the hypothesis that the average return on actively-managed mutual funds is higher than the return on an index of stocks, if the critical value is 1.96, what is your conclusion concerning the null hypothesis

Answers

Answer:

In this question, we shall be accepting the null hypothesis H0 since the critical value is greater than the test statistic value

Step-by-step explanation:

Here in this question, we want to make a conclusion about the null hypothesis H0.

To make or give the correct conclusion about the null hypothesis in this case, we shall need to compare the absolute value of the test statistic used against the value of the critical value.

Hence, we draw a conclusion if the test statistic is larger or smaller than the critical value.

From the value given in the question, we can see that the test statistic given as 1.68 is lesser in value compared to the critical value given as 1.96.

In this kind of case, the conclusion that we shall be drawing is that we will accept the null hypothesis H0 and reject the alternative hypothesis

There are 8 books needing re-shelving in a library where 65% of the library's collection consists of reference books. Let X be the number of reference books a student helper re-shelves out of the 8 on her cart. a) What is the probability that all 8 of them are reference books

Answers

Answer:

0.0319

Step-by-step explanation:

To approximate this probability, we shall be using the Bernoulli approximation of the Binomial distribution.

Let p = probability of selecting a reference book = 65% = 0.65

Let q = probability of selecting other books= 1-p = 1-0.65 = 0.35

Now, we want to find the probability that all of these 8 books to be re-shelved are reference book.

We set up the probability as follows;

P(X = 8) = 8C8 •p^8•q^0

P(X = 8) = 1 * (0.65)^8 * (0.35)^0

P(X = 8) = 0.031864481289 which is 0.0319 to 4 decimal places

Solve for x: the quantity of x plus 4 over 3 = 2.

Answers

Answer:

x =2

Step-by-step explanation:

(x+4) /3 = 2

Multiply each side by 3
