Answer:
(1) Therefore, a 90% confidence interval for the proportion of Americans who decide to not go to college because they cannot afford it is [0.4348, 0.5252].
(2) We can be 90% confident that the proportion of Americans who choose not to go to college because they cannot afford it is contained within our confidence interval
(3) A survey should include at least 3002 people if we wanted the margin of error for the 90% confidence level to be about 1.5%.
Step-by-step explanation:
We are given that a simple random sample of 331 American adults who do not have a four-year college degree and are not currently enrolled in school, 48% said they decided not to go to college because they could not afford school.
Firstly, the pivotal quantity for finding the confidence interval for the population proportion is given by;
P.Q. = [tex]\frac{\hat p-p}{\sqrt{\frac{\hat p(1-\hat p)}{n} } }[/tex] ~ N(0,1)
where, [tex]\hat p[/tex] = sample proportion of Americans who decide to not go to college = 48%
n = sample of American adults = 331
p = population proportion of Americans who decide to not go to
college because they cannot afford it
Here for constructing a 90% confidence interval we have used a One-sample z-test for proportions.
So, 90% confidence interval for the population proportion, p is ;
P(-1.645 < N(0,1) < 1.645) = 0.90 {As the critical value of z at 5% level
of significance are -1.645 & 1.645}
P(-1.645 < [tex]\frac{\hat p-p}{\sqrt{\frac{\hat p(1-\hat p)}{n} } }[/tex] < 1.645) = 0.90
P( [tex]-1.645 \times {\sqrt{\frac{\hat p(1-\hat p)}{n} } }[/tex] < [tex]\hat p-p[/tex] < [tex]1.645 \times {\sqrt{\frac{\hat p(1-\hat p)}{n} } }[/tex] ) = 0.90
P( [tex]\hat p-1.645 \times {\sqrt{\frac{\hat p(1-\hat p)}{n} } }[/tex] < p < [tex]\hat p+1.645 \times {\sqrt{\frac{\hat p(1-\hat p)}{n} } }[/tex] ) = 0.90
90% confidence interval for p = [ [tex]\hat p-1.645 \times {\sqrt{\frac{\hat p(1-\hat p)}{n} } }[/tex] , [tex]\hat p+1.645 \times {\sqrt{\frac{\hat p(1-\hat p)}{n} } }[/tex] ]
= [ [tex]0.48 -1.96 \times {\sqrt{\frac{0.48(1-0.48)}{331} } }[/tex] , [tex]0.48 +1.96 \times {\sqrt{\frac{0.48(1-0.48)}{331} } }[/tex] ]
= [0.4348, 0.5252]
(1) Therefore, a 90% confidence interval for the proportion of Americans who decide to not go to college because they cannot afford it is [0.4348, 0.5252].
(2) The interpretation of the above confidence interval is that we can be 90% confident that the proportion of Americans who choose not to go to college because they cannot afford it is contained within our confidence interval.
3) Now, it is given that we wanted the margin of error for the 90% confidence level to be about 1.5%.
So, the margin of error = [tex]Z_(_\frac{\alpha}{2}_) \times \sqrt{\frac{\hat p(1-\hat p)}{n} }[/tex]
[tex]0.015 = 1.645 \times \sqrt{\frac{0.48(1-0.48)}{n} }[/tex]
[tex]\sqrt{n} = \frac{1.645 \times \sqrt{0.48 \times 0.52} }{0.015}[/tex]
[tex]\sqrt{n}[/tex] = 54.79
n = [tex]54.79^{2}[/tex]
n = 3001.88 ≈ 3002
Hence, a survey should include at least 3002 people if we wanted the margin of error for the 90% confidence level to be about 1.5%.
In the data set shown below, what is the value of the quartiles?
{4.3, 4.5, 4.7, 5, 5.5, 5.7, 5.9, 6, 6.1}
A. Q1 = 4.6; Q2 = 5.5; Q3 = 5.95
B. Q1 = 4.7; Q2 = 5.5; Q3 = 6
C. Q1 = 4.7; Q2 = 5.5; Q3 = 5.9
D. Q1 = 4.6; Q2 = 5.5; Q3 = 5.92
Answer:
A. Q1 = 4.6; Q2 = 5.5; Q3 = 5.95
Step-by-step explanation:
{4.3, 4.5, 4.7, 5, 5.5, 5.7, 5.9, 6, 6.1}
First find the median or the 2nd quartile
There are 9 data points so the middle is the 5th
4.3, 4.5, 4.7, 5, 5.5, 5.7, 5.9, 6, 6.1}
Q2 = 5.5
Now looking at the data on the left, we need to find the middle, which is Q1 or the first quartile
4.3, 4.5 , 4.7, 5,
It is between 4.5 and 4.7 so we average
(4.5+4.7)/2 = 9.2/2 = 4.6
Q1 is 4.6
We do the same for the data on the right, which is the third quartile or Q3
5.7, 5.9, 6, 6.1
(5.9+6)/2 = 11.9/2 = 5.95
Q3 = 5.95

Step-by-step explanation:
2., 3., 4., 5.
yes, you had the right idea to calculate the half distances between the coordinates. just create the absolute values of the full distance before cutting it in half.
you need to remember : we have to go this half distance from one point to the other (meaning adding our subtracting the half distance to/from the starting point).
2.
(-4, 6) to (10, -10)
in x the distance is 10 - -4 = 14. half is 7.
in y the distance is |-10 - 6| = |-16| = 16. half is 8.
so the midpoint is
(-4 + 7, 6 - 8) = (3, -2)
remember, to go the half distance in the direction towards the second point (so we have to choose properly, when to use "+" and "-" depending on the change of the coordinate : from -4 to 10 we have to add, from 6 to -10 we have to subtract, of course).
3.
(-3, -8) to (-6.5, -4.5)
in x distance : -3 - -6.5 = 3.5. half is 1.75
in y distance : -8 - -4.5 = |-3.5| = 3.5. half is 1.75
midpoint is
(-3 - 1.75, -8 + 1.75) = (-4.75, -6.25)
4.
(3, 7) to (-8, -10)
x : 3 - -8 = 11. half is 5.5
y : 7 - -10 = 17. half is 8.5
midpoint is
(3 - 5.5, 7 - 8.5) = (-2.5, -1.5)
5.
(-6, -13) to (-6.4, -3.8)
x : -6 - -6.4 = 0.4. half is 0.2
y : -13 - -3.8 = |-9.2| = 9.2. half is 4.6
midpoint is
(-6 - 0.2, -13 + 4.6) = (-6.2, -8.4)
6.
(-1, 7) to (5, 1)
x : -1 - 5 = |-6| = 6. 1/3 is 2.
y : 7 - 1 = 6. 1/3 is 2.
1/3 from C to D
(-1 + 2, 7 - 2) = (1, 5)
7.
2/3 of the way from D to C is the same point as in 6. (1/3 from C to D).
again
(1, 5)
8.
2/3 of the way from C to D.
so, we need to double what we added in 6.
(-1 + 4, 7 - 4) = (3, 3)
9.
1/3 of the way from D to C is the same point as in 8. (2/3 of the way from C to D).
again
(3, 3)
10.
exactly. Pythagoras.
the square root of the sum of the squares of the coordinate differences.
distance = sqrt((x1 - x2)² + (y1 - y2)²)
11.
(6, 8) to (-1, 8)
distance = sqrt((6 - -1)² + (8 - 8)²) = sqrt(49) = 7
12.
(5, -6) to (5, 6)
sqrt((5-5)² + (-6-6)²) = sqrt(144) = 12
13.
(-2, 0) to (11, 0)
sqrt((-2 - 11)² + (0-0)²) = sqrt(169) = 13
14.
(1, -5) to (9, 1)
sqrt((1-9)² + (-5 - 1)²) = sqrt(64 + 36) = sqrt(100) = 10
15.
ST and MT are basically the same equation.
MT is half of ST.
ST equation based on 2 points :
y – yS={(yT – yS)/(xT – xS)}(x – xS)
M = (xS + (xT - xS)/2, yS +(yT - yS)/2)
so, let's put that into the general equation :
y - yM={(yT - yM)/(xT - xM)}(x - xM)
y - (yS +(yT - yS)/2) = {(yT - (yS +(yT - yS)/2))/(xT - (xS + (xT - xS)/2))}(x - (xS + (xT - xS)/2))
16.
the two corners farthest away are (5, 10) and (9, 6).
what distance from (0, 0) is now bigger ?
since it is (0, 0), we can skip the 0s and just sum up the squares of the coordinates.
5² + 10² = 125
9² + 6² = 117
so, the corner (5, 10) is the farthest away.
A clock rotated from 12 to 6 this is
Answer:
one half
Step-by-step explanation:
Because the rotation from 12 to 6 is one-half of a complete rotation, it seems reasonable to assume that the hour hand is moving continuously and has therefore moved one-half of the distance between the 2 and the 3. source- ck12.org
THE PRICE OF AN ITEM FROM $10 TO $17. WHAT WAS THE PERCENT INCREASE IN THE PRICE OF THE ITEM?
Answer:
70%
Step-by-step explanation:
The method to find out percentage increase is by subtracting the original price from the increased price and making it into a fractional form with the denominator as 10 (out of 100%). So it results to this.
(original price - increased price) / 10
(17 - 10) / 10 = 7/10
7/10 can be converted from its fractional form to 70% i.e.its percentage.

solve the system with elimination 4x+3y=1 -3x-6y=3
Answer:
x = 1, y = -1
Step-by-step explanation:
If we have the two equations:
[tex]4x+3y=1[/tex] and [tex]-3x - 6y = 3[/tex], we can look at which variable will be easiest to eliminate.
[tex]y[/tex] looks like it might be easy to get rid of, we just have to multiply [tex]4x+3y=1[/tex] by 2 and y is gone (as -6y + 6y = 0).
So let's multiply the equation [tex]4x+3y=1[/tex] by 2.
[tex]2(4x + 3y = 1)\\8x + 6y = 2[/tex]
Now we can add these equations
[tex]8x + 6y = 2\\-3x-6y=3\\[/tex]
------------------------
[tex]5x = 5[/tex]
Dividing both sides by 5, we get [tex]x = 1[/tex].
Now we can substitute x into an equation to find y.
[tex]4(1) + 3y = 1\\4 + 3y = 1\\3y = -3\\y = -1[/tex]

Suppose that the director of manufacturing at a clothing factory needs to determine whether a new machine is producing a particular type of cloth according to the manufacturer’s specifications, which indicate that the cloth should have a mean breaking strength of 70 pounds and a standard deviation of 3.5 pounds. A sample of 49 pieces reveals a sample mean of 69.1 pounds.
(a) State the null and alternative hypotheses.
(b) Is there evidence that the machine is not meeting the manufacturer’s specifications in terms of the average breaking strength? (Use a 0.05 level of significance.)
(c) Compute the p-value and interpret its meaning.
(d) What will your answer be in (b) if the standard deviation is 1.75 pounds?
(e) What will your answer be in (b) if the sample mean is 69 pounds?
Answer:
a.H0 : u1= u2 against Ha : u1≠ u2 This is a two sided test
b) There isn't enough evidence that the machine is not meeting the manufacturer’s specifications in terms of the average breaking strength.
c) the p- value is 0.0359*2= 0.0718. It is greater than the value of ∝ so there isn't enough evidence that the machine is not meeting the manufacturer’s specifications in terms of the average breaking strength.
d) There is enough evidence that the machine is not meeting the manufacturer’s specifications in terms of the average breaking strength.
e) There isn't enough evidence that the machine is not meeting the manufacturer’s specifications in terms of the average breaking strength.
Step-by-step explanation:
Formulate the null and alternative hypotheses as
a) H0 : u1= u2 against Ha : u1≠ u2 This is a two sided test
Here ∝= 0.005
For alpha by 2 for a two tailed test Z∝/2 = ± 1.96
Standard deviation = s= 3.5 pounds
n= 49
The test statistic used here is
Z = x- x`/ s/√n
Z= 69.1- 70 / 3.5 / √49
Z= -1.80
Since the calculated value of Z= -1.80 falls in the critical region we reject the null hypothesis.
b) There isn't enough evidence that the machine is not meeting the manufacturer’s specifications in terms of the average breaking strength.
c) the p- value is 0.0359*2= 0.0718. It is greater than the value of ∝ so there isn't enough evidence that the machine is not meeting the manufacturer’s specifications in terms of the average breaking strength.
d) If standard deviation is 1.75 pounds
The test statistic used here is
Z = x- x`/ s/√n
Z= 69.1- 70 / 1.75 / √49
Z= -3.6
This value does not fall in the critical region.
d) There is enough evidence that the machine is not meeting the manufacturer’s specifications in terms of the average breaking strength.
e) If the sample mean is 69 pounds
Z = x- x`/ s/√n
Z= 69.1- 69 / 3.5 / √49
Z= 0.2
This value falls in the critical region
e) There isn't enough evidence that the machine is not meeting the manufacturer’s specifications in terms of the average breaking strength.

NEED ASAP! Given: AB = 12 AC = 6 Prove: C is the midpoint of AB. A line has points A, C, B. Proof: We are given that AB = 12 and AC = 6. Applying the segment addition property, we get AC + CB = AB. Applying the substitution property, we get 6 + CB = 12. The subtraction property can be used to find CB = 6. The symmetric property shows that 6 = AC. Since CB = 6 and 6 = AC, AC = CB by the property. So, AC ≅ CB by the definition of congruent segments. Finally, C is the midpoint of AB because it divides AB into two congruent segments.

A cylindrical grain silo, with a flat top, is 30 feet tall and has a radius of 12 feet. It is full to the top with shelled corn. If the density of shelled corn averages 45 pounds/cubic foot, what does the corn in the silo weigh to the nearest pound
Answer:
610805 pounds
Step-by-step explanation:
The volume of grain in the silo will be calculated as equal to the volume of the cylinder formed by the silo
Height of the silo [tex]l[/tex] = 30 ft
radius of the silo r = 12 ft
volume of a cylinder = [tex]\pi r^{2} l[/tex]
substituting, we have
V = 3.142 x [tex]12^{2}[/tex] x 30 = 13573.44 cubic feet
We know that density ρ = weight/volume
density of the grains in the silo = 45 pound/cubic feet
therefore,
weight of grains = density x volume
weight of grains = 45 x 13573.44 = 610804.8 ≅ 610805 pounds

Explain in context the conclusion of the test if H0 is rejected.
Answer:
For the null hypothesis to be rejected , then the conclusion of the test is that the absolute values of the z-statistic and/or the t-test statistic is greater than the critical value
Step-by-step explanation:
Here, we want to explain the conclusion of the test given that the null hypothesis is rejected.
Mathematically, the null hypothesis is as expressed as below;
H0: μ = 1,200
The alternative hypothesis H1 would be;
H1: μ > 1,200
Now, before we can reject or accept the null hypothesis, we will need a sample size and thus calculate the test statistics and the z statistics
For us to reject the null hypothesis, one of two things, or two things must have occurred.
The absolute value of the z statistic |z| or the test statistic |t| must be greater than the critical value.
If this happens, then we can make a rejection of the null hypothesis

Sarah had a balance of $155 in her bank account at the start of the week. She withdrew $65.50 on Monday, $23.25 on Wednesday, and $26.45 on Thursday. On Friday she deposited $165.30. Write an expression that represents Sarah's spending.
Answer:
155 + 165.3 - 65.5 - 23.25 - 26.45
Step-by-step explanation:
She had $155 dollars in the starting = +155
She withdrew $65.5 = -65.5
She withdrew another $23.25 = -23.25
She withdrew another $26.45 = -26.45
The deposited $165.3 = +165.3
The expression looks like:
155 + 165.3 - 65.5 - 23.25 - 26.45
We could simplify the expression:
155 + 165.3 - 65.5 - 23.25 - 26.45
=> 320.3 - 88.75 - 26.45
=> 320.3 -115.2
=> 205.1
At the end of the week, she had a total of $205.10.
Two years ago the population of a town was 40000. The population of the town at present has reached 44100. Calculate the population growth rate of the city.
Answer:
5% annual population growth rate
Step-by-step explanation:
Let the percent the population grows by be [tex]X\%[/tex]. The total population, [tex]f(x)[/tex], after [tex]t[/tex] years can be modeled by the function:
[tex]f(x)=40,000\cdot (\frac{X}{100}+1)^t[/tex]
Why?
Let's take a look at a simple example. If we said a number [tex]n[/tex] grew by 10%, we could represent the number after it grew by multiplying [tex]n[/tex] by [tex]1.10[/tex]. This is because growing by 10% is equivalent to taking [tex]100\%+10\%=110\%[/tex] of that number and we convert a percentage to a decimal by dividing by 100.
Therefore, if the population grew [tex]X\%[/tex], we would divide it by 100 to convert it to a decimal, then add 1 (100%) and raise to the power of [tex]t[/tex] (number of years) to multiply by the initial population of 40,000 to get the total population after [tex]t[/tex] years.
Since the population of the town after two years is 44,100, substitute [tex]f(x)=44,100[/tex] and [tex]t=2[/tex] into [tex]f(x)=40,000\cdot (\frac{X}{100}+1)^t[/tex]:
[tex]44,100=40,000\cdot (\frac{X}{100}+1)^2,\\\\(\frac{X}{100}+1)^2=\frac{44,100}{40,000},\\\\(\frac{X}{100}+1)^2=1.1025,\\\\(\frac{X}{100}+1)^2=\pm \sqrt{1.1025},\\\\\begin{cases}\frac{X}{100}+1=1.05,\frac{X}{100}=0.05, X=\boxed{5\%},\\*\text{negative case is extraneous since X must be positive}\end{cases}[/tex]
Therefore, the city has an annual population growth rate of 5%.
A potato chip manufacturer produces bags of potato chips that are supposed to have a net weight of 326 grams. Because the chips vary in size, it is difficult to fill the bags to the exact weight desired. However, the bags pass inspection so long as the standard deviation of their weights is no more than 3 grams. A quality control inspector wished to test the claim that one batch of bags has a standard deviation of more than 3 grams, and thus does not pass inspection. If a sample of 21 bags of potato chips is taken and the standard deviation is found to be 4.1 grams, does this evidence, at the 0.025 level of significance, support the claim that the bags should fail inspection
