In a random sample of 500 college students, 23% say that they read or watch the news every day. Develop a 90% confidence interval for the proportion of all students who read or watch the news on a daily basis. Interpret your results. If you wanted to develop a 95% confidence interval with a margin of error of .01, how many students would need to be surveyed?

Answers

Answer 1

Answer:

The 90% confidence interval is  [tex]0.199 <  p < 0.261 [/tex]

The sample size to develop a 95% confidence interval is [tex]n = 2032 [/tex]  

Step-by-step explanation:

From the question we are told that

   The sample size is n =500

    The sample proportion is  [tex]\^ p = 0.23[/tex]

From the question we are told the confidence level is  90% , hence the level of significance is    

      [tex]\alpha = (100 - 90 ) \%[/tex]

=>   [tex]\alpha = 0.10[/tex]

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

   [tex]Z_{\frac{\alpha }{2} } =  1.645[/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 =  1.645 * \sqrt{\frac{0.23 (1- 0.23)}{500} } [/tex]

=>   [tex]E =  0.03096 [/tex]

Generally 90% confidence interval is mathematically represented as  

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

=>    [tex]0.23  -0.03096  <  p < 0.23  +  0.03096 [/tex]

=>   [tex]0.199 <  p < 0.261 [/tex]

From the question we are told the confidence level is  95% , hence the level of significance is    

      [tex]\alpha = (100 - 95 ) \%[/tex]

=>   [tex]\alpha = 0.05[/tex]

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

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

The margin of error is given as [tex]E = 0.01[/tex]

Generally the sample size is mathematically represented as  

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

=>    [tex]n = [\frac{1.96 }{0.01} ]^2 *0.23 (1 - 0.23 ) [/tex]      

=>    [tex]n = 2032 [/tex]

What volume would a 200 g sample of gold have, if its density is known to be 19.3

Answers

Answer:

The volume that a 200 g gold sample would have is 10.36 mL.

Step-by-step explanation:

Density is defined as the property that matter, whether solid, liquid or gas, has to compress into a given space. In other words, density is a quantity that allows us to measure the amount of mass in a certain volume of a substance. Then, the expression for the calculation of density is the quotient between the mass of a body and the volume it occupies:

[tex]density=\frac{mass}{volume}[/tex]

In this case it is known that the density of gold is 19.3 g / mL. This indicates that in 1 mL there are 19.3 g. Then the following rule of three can be applied: if 19.3 g is contained in 1 mL, how much volume is 200 g of gold?

[tex]volume=\frac{200 g*1mL}{19.3g}[/tex]

volume= 10.36 mL

The volume that a 200 g gold sample would have is 10.36 mL.

if R is the midpoint of QS, RS = 2x-4, ST = tx-1, and RT = 8x-43

Answers

The question is incomplete. Here is the complete question.

If R is the midpoint of QS, [tex]RS=2x-4[/tex], ST = [tex]4x-1[/tex] and RT = [tex]8x-43[/tex], find QS.

Answer: QS = 68 units

Step-by-step explanation: The figure below shows a line segment QT.

To determine QS, first, determine value of x:

RT = RS + ST

[tex]8x-43=2x-4+4x-1[/tex]

[tex]8x-43=6x-5[/tex]

2x = 38

x = 19

Now, we determine QS:

Midpoint is a point dividing a line segment in two equal parts.

Then, QR = RS.

QS = QR + RS

QS = 2RS

[tex]QS=2(2x-4)[/tex]

[tex]QS=4x-8[/tex]

Substituting x = 19:

[tex]QS=4.19-8[/tex]

QS = 68

The segment QS is 68 units.

Answer: x = 1

Step-by-step explanation:

I have no idea what the actual answer is, as you didn't ask a question. So i'm assuming that you want the value of x.

Step 1: Draw a line containing all the points

R is in between point Q and point S, while T is last, based on alphabetical order.

Illustration:

         2x - 4   Tx - 1

Q       R       S       T

             8x - 43

Step 2: Find T's value

To find t, create the substitution equation RS + ST = RT

2x - 4 + tx - 1 = 8x - 43

-2x                     -2x

-4 + tx - 1 = 6x - 43

tx - 5 = 6x - 43

tx = 6x - 38

tx/x = 6x/x - 38

t = 6 - 38

t = -32

This is the value of t

By the way, there is no correlation between point T and the variable t.

Step 3: Find x's value

Now that we know what t is, we can solve for x

2x - 4 -32x - 1 = 8x - 43

-30x - 5 = 8x - 43

+30x        +30x

-5 = 38x - 43

+43         +43

38 = 38x

38/38 = 38x/38

1 = x

This is the value of x

Milo pays $3 per pound for dog food at Pat's Pet
Palace. The graph below represents the cost per
pound of food at Mark's Mutt Market. At which
store will Milo pay a lower price per pound for
dog food?

Answers

Answer:

Pat Pet's Palace

Step-by-step explanation:

Price of dog food at Pat Pet's Palace = $3 per pound

Price of dog food at Mark's Mutt Market can be estimated using the graph given.

The graph is a proportional graph, thus, the constant of proportionality between cost and pound = y/x

Using the coordinates of a point on the line, (2.5, 10), constant of proportionality or unit rate = y/x = 10/2.5 = 4.

This means the price of dog food at Mark's Mutt Market is $4 per pound.

Therefore, Milo would pay a lower price per pound for dog food at Pat Pet's Palace.

A train is traveling at 60 mph. If the rate of speed increases 4 mph each hour,
how long will it be before the train is traveling at a rate of 80 mph?
OA) 4 hours
B) 5 hours
OC) 6 hours
OD 7 hours

Answers

Answer:

B) 5 hours

Step-by-step explanation:

First, find the amount of mph between 60 and 80:

80 - 60

= 20 mph

Since the speed increases 4 mph per hour, we can find how long it will take to get to 80 mph by dividing 20 by 4:

20/4

= 5

So, the correct answer is B, 5 hours

Consider RS endpoints R(-2,1) and S(4,4) Find point Q that is 2/3 away NEED THIS ASAP PLEASE ANSWER

Answers

The question does not clearly specify from which endpoint Q is at 2/3. I'll assume Q is 2/3 away from R.

Answer:

The point Q is (2,3)

Step-by-step explanation:

Take the aligned points R(-2,1), S(4,4), and Q(x,y) in such a way that Q is 2/3 away from R (assumed).

The required point Q must satisfy the relation:

d(RQ) = 2/3 d(RS)

Where d is the distance between two points.

The horizontal and vertical axes also satisfy the same relation:

x(RQ) = 2/3 x(RS)

[tex]x_R-x_Q=2/3(x_R-x_S)[/tex]

And, similarly:

[tex]y_R-y_Q=2/3(y_R-y_S)[/tex]

Working on the first condition:

[tex]-2-x=2/3(-2-4)=2/3(-6)[/tex]

Removing the parentheses:

[tex]-2-x=-4[/tex]

Adding 2:

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

x = 2

Similarly, working with the vertical component:

[tex]1-y=2/3(1-4)=2/3(-3)[/tex]

Removing the parentheses:

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

Subtracting 1:

[tex]-y = -3[/tex]

y = 3

The point Q is (2,3)

Suppose 52R% of the population has a college degree. If a random sample of size 808808 is selected, what is the probability that the proportion of persons with a college degree will be less than 54T%

Answers

Answer:

The probability is  [tex]P( p < 435.82 ) = 0.54094[/tex]

Step-by-step explanation:

From the question we are told that

   The population proportion is  p =  54% = 0.54

    The sample size is  n  =  808

Generally the distribution of the population with college degree follows a binomial distribution  

i.e  

         [tex]X  \~ \ \ \  B(n , p)[/tex]

Generally the mean is mathematically represented as

       [tex]\mu = n * p[/tex]

=>    [tex]\mu = 808 * 0.52[/tex]

=>    [tex]\mu = 420.16[/tex]

Generally the standard deviation is mathematically represented as

        [tex]\sigma = \sqrt{np(1- p )}[/tex]

=>      [tex]\sigma = \sqrt{808 * 0.52(1- 0.52 )}[/tex]    

=>      [tex]\sigma = 14.2[/tex]

Generally 54% of the population proportion is

         [tex]\^ p = 0.54 * 808[/tex]

=>     [tex]\^ p = 436.32[/tex]

Generally by normal approximation of the binomial distribution the probability that the proportion of persons with a college degree will be less than 54% is mathematically evaluated as

      [tex]P(p < \^ p ) = P(\frac{p - \mu }{\sigma } < \frac{\^ p - \mu }{\sigma } )[/tex]

[tex]\frac{X -\mu}{\sigma }  =  Z (The  \ standardized \  value\  of  \ X )[/tex]

=>  [tex]P(p < 436.32 ) = P( Z < \frac{436.32 - 420.16 }{14.20 } )[/tex]

applying continuity correction

      [tex]P(p < (436.32-0.5) ) = P( Z < \frac{(436.32-0.5) - 420.16 }{14.20 } )[/tex]

=>  [tex]P(p < (435.82 ) = P( Z < \frac{435.82 - 420.16 }{14.20 } )[/tex]

=>  [tex]P(p < (435.82 ) = P( Z < 0.1028 )[/tex]

From the z table  the area under the normal curve to the left corresponding to 0.1028  is

   [tex]P( Z < 0.1028 ) = 0.54094[/tex]

=> [tex]P( p < 435.82 ) = 0.54094[/tex]

B) 176 ft²

Step-by-step explanation:

Answer:

39.53 ft2

Step-by-step explanation:

If you are having a hard time with this it is most likely due to the semicircle. First you need to divide the diameter (3) by 1/2, next you multiply the now radius (radius is always 1/2 of the diameter) and pi to get 3.53.

Now you have to find the area of the rectangle, 3*12 = 36.

36 + 3.53 = 39.53 rounded.

HELP!!!!! I dont understand this!​

Answers

Answer:

-14

Step-by-step explanation:

I might be wrong, but this is my interpretation of the problem.

To solve this problem, find the endpoints of the line in the interval. Then draw a line between those two points. Finally, find the slope of the line that passes between the two points.

The line is f(x) = -2x^(2) + 2x + 1

The interval (in standard notation) is (3 [tex]\leq[/tex] x [tex]\leq[/tex] 5)

So when x = 3,

-2x^(2) + 2x + 1

-2(3)^(2) + 2*3 + 1

-2 * 9 + 6 + 1

-18 + 7

- 11

One endpoint is: (3, -11).

When x = 5

-2x^(2) + 2x + 1

-2(5)^2 + 2*5 + 1

-2 * 25 + 10 + 1

-50 + 11

-39

The other endpoint is; (5, -39).

Find the slope of a line passing through these two points.

The formula to find the slope of a line is:

[tex]\frac{y_{2} - y_{1} }{x_{2} - x_{1} }[/tex]

[tex]x_{1}[/tex] = 3

[tex]y_{1}[/tex] = -11

[tex]x_{2}[/tex] = 5

[tex]y_{2}[/tex] = -39

((-39) - ( -11))/((5) - (3))
