Life rating in Greece. Greece has faced a severe economic crisis since the end of 2009. A Gallup poll surveyed 1,000 randomly sampled Greeks in 2011 and found that 25% of them said they would rate their lives poorly enough to be considered "suffering".

a. Describe the population parameter of interest. What is the value of the point estimate of this parameter?

b. Check if the conditions required for constructing a confidence interval based on these data are met.

c. Construct a 95% confidence interval for the proportion of Greeks who are "suffering".

d. Without doing any calculations, describe what would happen to the confidence interval if we decided to use a higher confidence level.

e. Without doing any calculations, describe what would happen to the confidence interval if we used a larger sample.

Answers

Answer 1

Answer:

a

        The population parameter of interest is the true proportion of Greek who are suffering

    While the point estimate of this parameter is  proportion of those that would rate their lives poorly enough to be considered "suffering". which is 25%  

b

   The condition  is met

c

   The  95% confidence interval is   [tex]0.223 < p < 0.277[/tex]

d

      If the confidence level is increased which will in turn reduce the level of significance but increase the critical value([tex]Z_{\frac{\alpha }{2} }[/tex]) and this will increase the margin of error( deduced from  the formula for margin of error i.e  [tex]E \ \alpha \ Z_{\frac{\alpha }{2} }[/tex] ) which will make the confidence interval wider

e

  Looking at the formula for margin of error if the we see that if the  sample size is increased the margin of error will reduce making the  confidence level narrower

Step-by-step explanation:

From the question we are told that

    The sample size is  n  =  1000

     The  population proportion is  [tex]\r p = 0.25[/tex]

     

Considering question a

   The population parameter of interest is the true proportion of Greek who are suffering

    While the point estimate of this parameter is  proportion of those that would rate their lives poorly enough to be considered "suffering". which is 25%  

Considering question b

The condition for constructing a confidence interval is

        [tex]n * \r p > 5\ and \ n(1 - \r p ) >5[/tex]

So  

        [tex]1000 * 0.25 > 5 \ and \ 1000 * (1-0.25 ) > 5[/tex]

         [tex]250 > 5 \ and \ 750> 5[/tex]

Hence the condition  is met

Considering question c

    Given that the confidence level is  95%  then  the level of significance is mathematically evaluated as

          [tex]\alpha = 100 - 95[/tex]    

          [tex]\alpha = 5 \%[/tex]

          [tex]\alpha = 0.05[/tex]

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

              [tex]Z_{\frac{\alpha }{2} } = 1.96[/tex]        

Generally the margin of error is mathematically represented as

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

substituting values

         [tex]E = 1.96 * \sqrt{ \frac{ 0.25 (1 - 0.25 ) }{ 1000} }[/tex]

         [tex]E = 0.027[/tex]

The  95% confidence interval is mathematically represented as

            [tex]\r p - E < p < \r p + E[/tex]

substituting values  

           [tex]0.25 - 0.027 < p < 0.25 + 0.027[/tex]

substituting values

           [tex]0.223 < p < 0.277[/tex]

considering d

  If the confidence level is increased which will in turn reduce the level of significance but increase the critical value([tex]Z_{\frac{\alpha }{2} }[/tex]) and this will increase the margin of error( deduced from  the formula for margin of error i.e  [tex]E \ \alpha \ Z_{\frac{\alpha }{2} }[/tex] ) which will make the confidence interval wider

considering e

     Looking at the formula for margin of error if the we see that if the  sample size is increased the margin of error will reduce making the  confidence level narrower

Sugar, flour, and oats are stored in three drawers. The first drawer is labeled "oats", the second is labeled, "flour", the third is labeled "oats or flour". The label of each drawer does not correspond to what is stored inside of it. In which drawers is what stored?

Answers

Answer:

first = flour, second = oats, third = sugar

Step-by-step explanation:

Since the labels are "wrong", we know that the third drawer doesn't have oats or flour, therefore it has sugar. Since the first doesn't have oats, it must have flour and that makes the second drawer oats.

Answer:

first drawer has flour, second has oats, third is sugar

Step-by-step explanation:

on the first drawer, it is labelled oats, so it cannot be oats. on the second it cannot be flour, and on the third it cannot be oats or flour, which means it HAS to be sugar leaving oats and flour to be in either the first, or second.

If I chose a number uniformly from the integers from 1 to 25, calculate the conditional probability that the number is a multiple of 6 (including 6) given that it is larger than 18.

Answers

Answer:

1/7

Step-by-step explanation:

If I choose a number from the integers 1 to 25, the total number of integers I can pick is the total outcome which is 25. n(U) = 25

Let the probability that the number chosen at random is a multiple of  6 be P(A) and the probability that the number chosen at random is is larger than 18 be P(B)

P(A) = P(multiple of 6)

P(B) = P(number larger than 18)

A = {6, 12, 18, 24}

B = {19, 20, 21, 22, 23, 24, 25}

The conditional probability that the number is a multiple of 6 (including 6) given that it is larger than 18 is expressed as P(A|B).

P(A|B) = P(A∩B)/P(B)

Since probability = expected outcome/total outcome

A∩B = {24}

n(A∩B) = 1

P(A∩B) = n(A∩B)/n(U)

P(A∩B) = 1/25

Given B = {19, 20, 21, 22, 23, 24, 25}.

n(B) = 7

p(B) = n(B)/n(U)

p(B) = 7/25

Since P(A|B) = P(A∩B)/P(B)

P(A|B) = (1/25)/(7/24)

P(A|B) = 1/25*25/7

P(A|B) = 1/7

Hence the conditional probability that the number is a multiple of 6 (including 6) given that it is larger than 18 is 1/7

Hi! I'm happy to help!

To solve this problem, we need to first solve [tex]5^{-4}[/tex].

Negative exponents divide the number by x instead of multiplying. So, [tex]5^{-4}[/tex] is 1/625. Since we can't use another negative exponent, we can use a number that would decrease with a positive exponent. In this situation, we can use the inverse of 5, which is [tex]\frac{1}{5}[/tex], and put this to the fourth power. [tex]\frac{1}{5} ^{4}[/tex]

This expression also equals 1/625.

The bar graph shows the number of students who earned each letter grade on an
exam, which statement about the graph is true?

Answers

*a clearer picture containing the graph is shown in the attachment

Answer:

20% of the class earned a D

Step-by-step Explanation:

Step 1: Determine the total number of students represented on the graph:

9 students => D

5 students => C

14 students => B

17 students => A

Total number of students = 45

Step 2: Express each category of students who scored a particular grade as a fraction and as percentage.

9 students => D => [tex] \frac{9}{45} = \frac{1}{5} [/tex] => as percentage, we have [tex] \frac{1}{5} * 100 = 20 percent [/tex]

5 students => C => [tex] \frac{5}{45} = \frac{1}{9} [/tex] => as percentage, we have [tex] \frac{1}{9} * 100 = 11.1 percent [/tex]

14 students => B => [tex] \frac{14}{45} [/tex] => as percentage, we have [tex] \frac{14}{45} * 100 = 31.1 percent [/tex]

17 students => A => [tex] \frac{17}{45} [/tex] => as percentage, we have [tex] \frac{17}{45} * 100 = 37.8 percent [/tex]

Step 3: Check each statement to see if they are true or not based on the calculations above.

Statement 1: "⅕ of the students earned a C."

This is NOT TRUE From our calculation, ⅑ of the students earned a C.

Statement 2: "3% more students earned an A than a B." This is also NOT TRUE.

37.8% earned A, while 31.1% earned a B. Thus, about 6.7% more students earned an A than a B.

Statement 3: "20% of the class earned a D".  This is TRUE.

Check calculation in step 2.

Statement 4: "¼ of the class earned a B". This is NOT TRUE.

¼ is 25% of the class. Those who earned a B account for 31.1% not 25% (¼ of the class).

The correct statement is: "20% of the class earned a D"

The sum of 'n' terms of an arithmetic sequence is 4n^2+3n. What is the first term, the common difference, and the sequence?

Answers

Answer:

The sequence has first term 7 and common difference is 8.

So the sequence is f(n)=7 + 8(n-1)

Step-by-step explanation:

Let a be the first term.

Let a+d be the second term where d is the common difference.

Then a+2d is the third....

And a+(n-1)d is the nth term.

Adding these terms we get:

an+(n-1)(n)/2×d

For the first term of this sum I seen we had n amount of a's and for the second term I used the well known identity sum of the first n positive integers is n(n+1)/2.

Let's simplify:

an+(n-1)(n)/2×d

Distribute:

an+(n^2d/2)-(nd/2)

Find common denominator:

(2an/2)+(n^2d/2)-(nd/2)

Combine terms into one:

(2an+n^2d-nd)/2

Reorder terms:

(n^2d+2an-nd)/2

Regroup terms:

(n^2d+(2a-d)n)/2

We want the following sum though:

4n^2+3n

This means d/2=4 (so d=8) and (2a-d)/2=3.

So plug d=8 into second equation to solve for a.

(2a-8)/2=3

2a-8=6

2a=14

a=7

The sequence has first term 7 and common difference is 8.

So the sequence is f(n)=7 + 8(n-1).
