An economist is interested in studying the income of consumers in a particular region. The population standard deviation is known to be $1,000. A random sample of 50 individuals resulted in an average income of $15,000. What is the width of the 90% confidence interval

Answers

Answer 1

Answer:

The width is  [tex]w = 282.8[/tex]

Step-by-step explanation:

From the question we are told that

  The sample size is n =  50

  The  population standard deviation is  [tex]\sigma = \$ 1000[/tex]

   The sample size is  [tex]\= x = \$ 15,000[/tex]

Given that the confidence level is  90%  then the level of significance can be mathematically represented as

             [tex]\alpha = 100 - 90[/tex]  

             [tex]\alpha = 10 \%[/tex]  

              [tex]\alpha = 0.10[/tex]

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

             [tex]Z_{\frac{0.10 }{2} } = 1.645[/tex]

Generally the margin of error is mathematically represented as

               [tex]E = Z_{\frac{0.10}{2} } * \frac{\sigma }{\sqrt{n} }[/tex]

substituting values

                 [tex]E = 1.645 * \frac{1000 }{\sqrt{50 }}[/tex]

=>                [tex]E = 141.42[/tex]

  The width of the 90%  confidence level is mathematically represented as

                      [tex]w = 2 * E[/tex]

substituting values

                       [tex]w = 2 * 141.42[/tex]

                       [tex]w = 282.8[/tex]

Find the surface area of the regular pyramid shown in the accompanying diagram. If necessary, express your answer in simplest radical form.

Answers

Answer:

The area of the pyramid is 360 unit²

Step-by-step explanation:

Given

Base Edge, a = 10

Height, h = 12

Required

Determine the surface area

The surface area of a regular pyramid is calculated as thus;

[tex]A = a^2 + 2a\sqrt{\frac{a^2}{4} + h^2}[/tex]

Substitute values for a and h

[tex]A = 10^2 + 2 * 10 * \sqrt{\frac{10^2}{4} + 12^2}[/tex]

Evaluate all squares

[tex]A = 100 + 2 * 10 * \sqrt{\frac{100}{4} + 144}[/tex]

[tex]A = 100 + 2 * 10 * \sqrt{25 + 144}[/tex]

[tex]A = 100 + 2 * 10 * \sqrt{169}[/tex]

Take positive square root of 169

[tex]A = 100 + 2 * 10 * 13[/tex]

[tex]A = 100 + 260[/tex]

[tex]A = 360[/tex]

Hence, the area of the pyramid is 360 unit²

Mark has a collection of 80 coins. There are only nickels and dimes in the collection. The total value of the coins is $5.00. How many dimes does Mark have?

Answers

Answer:

number of nickel = 60

number of dimes  = 20

Step-by-step explanation:

1 nickel = 5 cents

1 dimes = 10 cents

$1 = 100 cents

we will use these value to solve the questions

_______________________________

Total no of coins = 80

let the number of nickels be x

let the number of dimes be y

thus,

x+y = 80

y = 80-x   equation 2

value of x nickels = 5x

value of y dimes = 10y

Total value of x nickels and y dimes = 5x+10y

The total value of the coins is $5.00

total value of the coins in cents = 5*100 = 500

thus

5x+10y = 500

using y = 80-x   from equation 2

5x + 10(80 - x) = 500

5x + 800 - 10x = 500

-5x = 500 - 800 = -300

x = -300/-5 = 60

Thus,

number of nickel = 60

number of dimes = 80-60 = 20

If the sides of a square measure 9.3 units the.find the length of the diagonal

Answers

Answer:

Approximately 13.1521 units.

Step-by-step explanation:

To find the diagonal, we can use the Pythagorean Theorem.

Since the figure is a square, all four sides are equivalent. A square also has four right angles. Therefore, we can use the Pythagorean Theorem to find the diagonal d. Therefore:

[tex]a^2+b^2=c^2[/tex]

Substitute 9.3 for a and b, and let c equal d:

[tex](9.3)^2+(9.3)^2=d^2[/tex]

Instead of squaring, add the like-terms:

[tex]2(9.3)^2=d^2[/tex]

Take the square root of both sides:

[tex]d=\sqrt{2(9.3)^2}[/tex]

Expand:

[tex]d=\sqrt{2}\cdot\sqrt{(9.3)^2}[/tex]

The right cancels:

[tex]d=\sqrt2\cdot(9.3)\\d=9.3\sqrt2\\d\approx13.1521\text{ units}[/tex]

For the given data value, find the standard score and the percentile. A data value 0.6 standard deviations above the mean.

Answers

Answer:

The  standard score  [tex]z = 0.6[/tex]

The  the percentile   [tex]P(z < 0.6 ) = 72.57\%[/tex]

Step-by-step explanation:

From the question we are told that

   A data value is  0.6 standard deviations above the mean.

The above statement can be mathematically represented as

     [tex]x = 0.6 \sigma + \mu[/tex]

Where [tex]\sigma[/tex] is the standard deviation and  [tex]\mu[/tex] is the mean

   Generally the standard score is mathematically represented as

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

   =>      [tex]z = \frac{(0.6 \sigma + \mu) - \mu}{\sigma}[/tex]

   =>     [tex]z = 0.6[/tex]

Now the percentile is obtained from the z-table , the value is  

        [tex]P(z < 0.6 ) = 0.7257[/tex]

=>    [tex]P(z < 0.6 ) = 72.57\%[/tex]

A slot machine has 3 dials. Each dial has 30 positions, one of which is "Jackpot". To win the jackpot, all three dials must be in the "Jackpot" position. Assuming each play spins the dials and stops each independently and randomly, what are the odds of one play winning the jackpot?

Answers

since there are 3 slots and each slot has 30 positions:

dial 1 can have a max of 30 possible outcomes, and so can dial 2 and 3

hence all the dial have 30 possible outcomes

total combinations = total outcomes of slot 1 X total outcomes of slot 2 X total outcomes of slot 3/ 3!

total combinations = 30 * 30 * 30 / 3 X 2 X 1

total combinations = 9000/3 X 2

total combinations  = 1500

hence, there is a total of 1500 different combinations of the 3 slots

the combination required is 1 from the 1500

hence the odds are  1/1500

Answer:

1/27000

Step-by-step explanation:

30*30*30 =27000

each dial has to be in correct position so 1/27000 is correct

Diana paints 150 fence posts and chuck paints 130 fence posts. Diana paints 10 more fence posts than chuck. How many fence posts does chuck paint per hour?

Answers

Complete Question

Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:

From the question we are told that

  The  relationship is  [tex]\frac{150 }{d} = \frac{130}{c}[/tex]

   The number of fence post painted by chuck is  [tex]l = 130[/tex]

    The number of fence post painted by Diana  is [tex]k = 150[/tex]

    can paint 10 fences more than chuck  so let say the  of fence painted in an hour by chuck is [tex]g[/tex]

     Then  the number of fence post painted by Diana in one hour is

          [tex]f = g+ 10[/tex]

 So

       [tex]\frac{150 }{ g + 10 } = \frac{130}{g}[/tex]

       [tex]130 g + 1300 = 150g[/tex]

        [tex]g = 65 \ m[/tex]

Kevin made a business trip of 312.5 miles. He averages 60 mph for the first part of the trip and 55 mph for the second part. If the trip took a 5.5 hours how long did he travel at each rate

Answers

Answer:

Kevin travels for 2 hours at 60 mph and 3.5 hours at 55 mph

Step-by-step explanation:

Let's say that Kevin spends x hours going 60 mph and y hours going 55 mph. We can say that the sum of the two parts is 5.5, so x+y = 5.5 . Next, he goes 60 miles per hour for the first part of the trip, so for each hour he goes 60 mph, he travels 60 miles. We can then denote 60 * x as the distance traveled during the first part of his trip as he goes 60 mph for x hours. Similarly, 55 * y denotes the distance Kevin travels during the second part of his trip. His total distance is thus 60 * x + 55 * y = 312.5 miles

We have

x + y = 5.5

60 * x + 55 * y = 312.5

One way we can solve this is to solve for y in the first equation and plug that into the second. Subtracting x from both sides in the first equation, we get

y = 5.5 - x

Plugging that into the second equation, we get

60 * x + 55 * (5.5-x) = 312.5

60 * x + 55 * 5.5 - 55x = 312.5

5x  +302.5 = 312.5

subtract 302.5 from both sides to isolate the x and its coefficient

5x = 10

divide both sides by 5 to solve for x

x = 2

y = 5.5 - x = 5.5 - 2 = 3.5

Therefore, Kevin travels for 2 hours at 60 mph and 3.5 hours at 55 mph

A bag contains 6 red marbles, 3 blue marbles and 1 green marble. What is the probability that a randomly selected marble is not blue?

Answers

Answer:

3/10

Step-by-step explanation:

6+3+1=10

since there are 3 blue marbles, we put the 3 into the place of the numerator

and since there is 10 marbles in total it goes into the denominator

The probability that a randomly selected marble is not blue will be 0.70.

What is probability?

Its basic premise is that something will almost certainly happen. The percentage of favorable events to the total number of occurrences.

A bag contains 6 red marbles, 3 blue marbles and 1 green marble.

The total number of the event will be

Total event = 6 + 3 + 1

Total event = 10

Then the probability that a randomly selected marble is not blue will be

Favorable event = 7 {red, green}

Then the probability will be

P = 7 / 10

P = 0.70

(1-Cota)^2

+(tana-1)^2=4cosec2a(cosec2a-1)

Answers

Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:

(1-CotA)² + (tanA-1)² = 4csc2A(csc2A-1)

To prove this equation we will take the expression given in left hand side and will convert it into the expression given in right hand side of the equation.

L.H.S. = (1-CotA)² + (tanA-1)²

          = 1 + Cot²A - 2CotA + 1 + tan²A - 2tanA

          = cosec²A - 2CotA + Sec²A - 2tanA

[Since, (1 + Cot²A = cosec²A) and (1 + tan²A = Sec²A)]

          = (cosec²A + Sec²A) - 2(CotA + tanA)

          = [tex](\frac{1}{\text{SinA}})^{2}+(\frac{1}{CosA} )^{2}-2\text{(tanA}+\frac{1}{\text{tanA}})}[/tex]

          = [tex]\frac{1}{(\text{SinA.CosA})^2}-2(\frac{tan^2A+1}{tanA} )[/tex]

          = [tex]\frac{4}{\text{(Sin2A})^{2}}-4(\frac{1}{\text{Sin2A}} )[/tex]

[Since 2SinA.CosA = Sin2A and [tex]\frac{2(\text{tanA})}{1+\text{tan}^{2}A}=\text{Sin2A}[/tex]]

          = 4Cosec²2A - 4Cosec2A

          = 4Cosec2A(Cosec2A - 1)

          = R.H.S. (Right hand side)

Hence the equation is proved.
