Answers

Answer 1

Answer:

a) The population population in this situation is all the local business

b) The sample is the 80 of local business selected.

c) The rate of nonresponse is 42.5%.

Step-by-step explanation:

Sampling

This is a common statistics practice, when we want to study something from a population, we find a sample of this population.

For example:

I want to estimate the proportion of New York state residents who are Buffalo Bills fans. So i ask, lets say, 1000 randomly selected New York state residents wheter they are Buffalo Bills fans, and expand this to the entire population of New York State residents.

The population for this survey is all New York State residents, while the sample are the 1000 New York State residents.

From telephone book listings, the committee chooses 80 businesses at random.

Survey: 80 businesses.

Population: All businesses in the college town.

Then

a) What is the population for this sample survey?

The population population in this situation is all the local business

b) What is the sample?

The sample is the 80 of local business selected.

c) What is the rate (percent) of nonresponse?

80 - 46 = 34 non-responses, out of 80

34/80 = 0.425

0.425*100 = 42.5%

The rate of nonresponse is 42.5%.

Are You Ready for More?: Two raised to the 12th power is equal to 4,096. How many other

whole numbers can you raise to a power and get 4,096? Explain or show your reasoning.

(1 Point)

2^12 = 4096

Answers

Answer:

4, 8, 16,64 and 4096.

Step-by-step explanation:

We are already given: [tex]4096=2^{12}[/tex]

To determine other whole numbers that can be raised to a power to obtain 4096, we apply the product rule of indices.

Product Rule of Indices: [tex]a^{xy}=(a^x)^y[/tex]

Now 12 can be factored in the following ways where one of the terms must be a perfect square:

12=2 X 612 =6 X 212 =3 X 412 =4 X 312=1 X 12

[tex]2^{12}=(2^2)^6=4^6\\\\2^{12}=(2^6)^2=64^2\\\\2^{12}=(2^4)^3=16^3\\\\2^{12}=(2^3)^4=(8^2)^2=8^{2*2}=8^4\\\\2^{12}=(2^{12})^1=4096^1 $(This is the trivial case)[/tex]

Therefore, the other whole numbers that can be raised tp a power to obtain 4096 are: 4, 8, 16, 64 and 4096.

Answers

Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:

1) If all angles of a quadrilateral are right angles, then the quadrilateral must be a square. This is not true because the quadrilateral can also be a rectangle.

2) Two shapes are similar if and only if their corresponding angles are equal. This is true.

3) All quadrilaterals have four sides, and the sum of all angles in a quadrilateral is 180º. This is false because the sum of the angles is 360°

4) if the diagonals of a quadrilateral are perpendicular bisectors, then the quadrilateral must be a rhombus. This is true.

5) There are three vertices in a triangle, or there are four sides in a pentagon. This is false because a Pentagon has 5 sides.

6) Any two triangles are either similar or congruent. This is not true. Congruent triangles are always similar

Table A c. Table C b. Table B d. Table D Please select the best answer from the choices provided

Answers

Answer:

The table that illustrates this equation is table A:

1   -6   0   up   (0,0)

Step-by-step explanation:

The values of the parameters a, b, and c have to agree with the values for the general quadratic equation in standard form:

[tex]y = a\,x^2+b\,x+c[/tex]

compared to:

[tex]y=x^2-6\,x[/tex]

So the coefficient "a" of the quadratic term in our case is: "1"

the coefficient "b" of the linear term is : "-6"

the coefficient "c" for the constant term s : "0" (zero)

since the coefficient "a" is a positive number, we know that the parabola's branches must be opening "UP".

The y intercept can be found by evaluating the expression for x = 0:

[tex]y=x^2-6x\\y=(0)^2-6\,(0)\\y=0[/tex]

Therefore the y-intercept is at (0, 0)

These results agree with those of Table "A"

b) The circumference of the circle  C = 37.68 ft

c)  The circumference of the circle  C = 40.82 km

d) The radius of the circle = r = 11 c.m

    The Diameter of the circle 'd' = 2(r) = 2(11) =22 c.m

e) The circumference of the circle = 21.98 inches

  Step-by-step explanation:

a)  In First diagram

Given radius of the circle 'r' = 7.1 m

  The circumference of the circle  C = 2πr

                                                            C = 2 (3.14) (7.1)

                                                            C = 21.98 m

The circumference of the circle  C = 21.98 m

b) In second diagram

Given diameter of the circle 'd' = 12 ft

   The circumference of the circle  C = 2πr

                                                            C = π(2 r)

                                       Diameter = 2 X radius

                                               d = 2 r

 The circumference of the circle  C = πd

                                                          C = 3.14 ×12

The circumference of the circle  C = 37.68 ft

c)

Given diameter of the circle 'd' = 13 km

   The circumference of the circle  C = 2πr

                                                            C = π(2 r)

                                       Diameter = 2 X radius

                                               d = 2 r

 The circumference of the circle  C = πd

                                                          C = 3.14 ×13

 The circumference of the circle  C = 40.82 km

   

7) The circumference of the circle  C = 2πr

    Given The circumference of a circle is 34.54 cm

          Now       2πr = 34.54

                   2(3.14) r = 34.54

                           [tex]r = \frac{34.54}{3.14} = 11[/tex]

   The radius of the circle = r = 11 c.m

    The Diameter of the circle 'd' = 2(r) = 2(11) =22 c.m

8) Given radius of the circle 'r' = 3.5 inches

   The circumference of the circle  C = 2πr

                                                            C = 2 (3.14) (3.5)

                                                            C = 21.98

  The circumference of the circle = 21.98 inches

 

Company A makes a large shipment to Company B. Company B can reject the shipment if they can conclude that the proportion of defective items in the shipment is larger than 0.1. In a sample of 400 items from the shipment, Company B finds that 59 are defective. Conduct the appropriate hypothesis test for Company B using a 0.05 level of significance.

Answers

Answer:

[tex]z=\frac{0.1475-0.1}{\sqrt{\frac{0.1(1-0.1)}{400}}}=3.17[/tex]  

The p value for this case would be given by:

[tex]p_v =P(z>3.17)=0.00076[/tex]  

For this case the p value is lower than the significance level so then we have enough evidence to reject the null hypothesis and we can conclude that the true mean is significantly higher than 0.1 and then Company B can reject the shipment

Step-by-step explanation:

Information provided

n=400 represent the random sample taken

X=59 represent number of defectives from the company B

[tex]\hat p=\frac{59}{400}=0.1475[/tex] estimated proportion of defectives from the company B  

[tex]p_o=0.1[/tex] is the value to verify

[tex]\alpha=0.05[/tex] represent the significance level

z would represent the statistic

[tex]p_v[/tex] represent the p value

Hypothesis to test

We want to verify if the true proportion of defectives is higher than 0.1 then the system of hypothesis are.:  

Null hypothesis:[tex]p \leq 0.1[/tex]  

Alternative hypothesis:[tex]p > 0.1[/tex]  

The statistic would be given by:

[tex]z=\frac{\hat p -p_o}{\sqrt{\frac{p_o (1-p_o)}{n}}}[/tex] (1)  

Replacing the info given we got:

[tex]z=\frac{0.1475-0.1}{\sqrt{\frac{0.1(1-0.1)}{400}}}=3.17[/tex]  

The p value for this case would be given by:

[tex]p_v =P(z>3.17)=0.00076[/tex]  

For this case the p value is lower than the significance level so then we have enough evidence to reject the null hypothesis and we can conclude that the true mean is significantly higher than 0.1 and then Company B can reject the shipment

2. 128g needed to be added

Step-by-step explanation:

1.

9 + 5 + 2 + y + x = 2(8 + 4 + 1 + 3 + x)

16 + y + x = 32 + 2x

y - x = 16

∴ (y - x)²  = 256

Answers

Answer:

c) 5√2 cm

Step-by-step explanation:

A square with side length l has a perimeter given by the following equation:

P = 4l.

In this question:

P = 20

So the side length is:

4l = 20

l = 20/4

l = 5

Diagonal

The diagonal forms a right triangle with two sides, in which the diagonal is the hypothenuse. Applying the pytagoras theorem.

[tex]d^{2} = l^{2} + l^{2}[/tex]

[tex]d^{2} = 5^{2} + 5^{2}[/tex]

[tex]d^{2} = 50[/tex]

Find the minimum score required for an A grade. Round your answer to the nearest whole number, if necessary.

Answers

Answer:

The minimum score required for an A grade is 77.

Step-by-step explanation:

When the distribution is normal, we use the z-score formula.

In a set with mean [tex]\mu[/tex] and standard deviation [tex]\sigma[/tex], the zscore of a measure X is given by:

[tex]Z = \frac{X - \mu}{\sigma}[/tex]

The Z-score measures how many standard deviations the measure is from the mean. After finding the Z-score, we look at the z-score table and find the p-value associated with this z-score. This p-value is the probability that the value of the measure is smaller than X, that is, the percentile of X. Subtracting 1 by the pvalue, we get the probability that the value of the measure is greater than X.

In this question, we have that:

[tex]\mu = 67.7, \sigma = 7.8[/tex]

Find the minimum score required for an A grade.

Top 12% of scores get an A.

100-12 = 88th percentile.

The 88th percentile of scores is the minimum required for an A grade. This score is X when Z has a pvalue of 0.88. So X when Z = 1.175.

[tex]Z = \frac{X - \mu}{\sigma}[/tex]

[tex]1.175 = \frac{X - 67.7}{7.8}[/tex]

[tex]X - 67.7 = 7.8*1.175[/tex]

[tex]X = 76.865[/tex]

Rounding to the nearest whole number:

The minimum score required for an A grade is 77.

Statistics show that about 42% of Americans voted in the previous national election. If three Americans are randomly selected, what is the probability that none of them voted in the last election

Answers

Answer:

19.51% probability that none of them voted in the last election

Step-by-step explanation:

For each American, there are only two possible outcomes. Either they voted in the previous national election, or they did not. The probability of an American voting in the previous election is independent of other Americans. So we use the binomial probability distribution 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.

42% of Americans voted in the previous national election.

This means that [tex]p = 0.42[/tex]

Three Americans are randomly selected

This means that [tex]n = 3[/tex]

What is the probability that none of them voted in the last election

This is P(X = 0).

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

[tex]P(X = 0) = C_{3,0}.(0.42)^{0}.(0.58)^{3} = 0.1951[/tex]

Step-by-step explanation:

Our teempo is 200 bpm.

in one minute we have 60 seconds, so here we have:

200b/60s = 3.33 bits per second.

For movies, the standar is 24 frames per second

now, we can take the quotient between the frames per second and the bits per second and get the frames per bit.

24fps/3.33bps = 7.2 frames per bit.

What is the image of R for a dilation with center (0,0) and a scale factor of 1 1/2?

Answers

Answer: The image is (6,-3)

Step-by-step explanation:

The coordinates of R is  ( 4,-2)  and to find the image using the scale factor 1.5 you will multiply the x coordinates by 1.5 and the y coordinate also by 1.5 to have the new image of R.

4 * 1.5 = 6

-2 * 1.5 = -3

The new coordinates care (6, -3)

4. Dean Pelton wants to perform calculations to impress the accreditation consultants, but upon asking for information about GPAs at Greendale Community College, Chang only tells Pelton that the GPAs are distributed with a probability density function f(x) = D(2 + e −x ), 2 ≤ x ≤ 4 where D was some unknown "Duncan" constant. How many student records have to be retrieved so that the probability that the average GPA is less than 2.3 is less than 4 percent?

Answers

Answer:

the minimum records to be retrieved by using Chebysher - one sided inequality is 17.

Step-by-step explanation:

Let assume that n should represent the number of the students

SO, [tex]\bar x[/tex] can now be the sample mean of number of students  in GPA's

To obtain n such that [tex]P( \bar x \leq 2.3 ) \leq .04[/tex]

⇒ [tex]P( \bar x \geq 2.3 ) \geq .96[/tex]

However ;

[tex]E(x) = \int\limits^4_2 Dx (2+e^{-x} ) 4x = D \\ \\ = D(e^{-x} (e^xx^2 - x-1 ) ) ^D_2 = 12.314 D[/tex]

[tex]E(x^2) = D\int\limits^4_2 (2+e^{-x})dx \\ \\ = \dfrac{D}{3}[e^{-4} (2e^x x^3 -3x^2 -6x -6)]^4__2}}= 38.21 \ D[/tex]

Similarly;

[tex]D\int\limits^4_2(2+ e^{-x}) dx = 1[/tex]

⇒ [tex]D*(2x-e^{-x} ) |^4_2 = 1[/tex]

⇒ [tex]D*4.117 = 1[/tex]

⇒ [tex]D= \dfrac{1}{4.117}[/tex]

[tex]\mu = E(x) = 2.991013 ; \\ \\ E(x^2) = 9.28103[/tex]

∴  [tex]Var (x) = E(x^2) - E^2(x) \\ \\ = .3348711[/tex]

Now; [tex]P(\bar \geq 2.3) = P( \bar x - 2.991013 \geq 2.3 - 2.991013) \\ \\ = P( \omega \geq .691013) \ \ \ \ \ \ \ \ \ \ (x = E(\bar x ) - \mu)[/tex]

Using Chebysher one sided inequality ; we have:

[tex]P(\omega \geq -.691013) \geq \dfrac{(.691013)^2}{Var ( \omega) +(.691013)^2}[/tex]

So; [tex](\omega = \bar x - \mu)[/tex]

⇒ [tex]E(\omega ) = 0 \\ \\ Var (\omega ) = \dfrac{Var (x_i)}{n}[/tex]

∴ [tex]P(\omega \geq .691013) \geq \dfrac{(.691013)^2}{\frac{.3348711}{n}+(691013)^2}[/tex]

To determine n; such that ;

[tex]\dfrac{(.691013)^2}{\frac{.3348711}{n}+(691013)^2} \geq 0.96 \\ \\ \\ (.691013)^2(1-.96) \geq \dfrac{-3348711*.96}{n}[/tex]

⇒ [tex]n \geq \dfrac{.3348711*.96}{.04*(.691013)^2}[/tex]

[tex]n \geq 16.83125[/tex]

Thus; we can conclude that; the minimum records to be retrieved by using Chebysher - one sided inequality is 17.

The complete question is;

A marine biologist is preparing a deep-sea submersible for a dive. The sub stores breathing air under high pressure in a spherical air tank that measures 78.0 cm wide. The biologist estimates she will need 2600 L of air for the dive. Calculate the pressure to which this volume of air must be compressed in order to fit in to the air tank. Write you answer in atmospheres

Answer:

10.5 atm

Step-by-step explanation:

Formula for Volume of a sphere is;

V = (4/3)πr³

r = 78/2 = 39 cm

V = (4/3)π(39)³

V = (4/3)*π*59319

V = 248475 cm³

Now, from conversions, 1000 cm³ = 1L

So,

V = 248475/1000

V = 248.5 L

This is the volume of the storage tank

If we assume that the 2600 L of air is measured at 1 atmosphere pressure, then we will obtain the following relationship:

From Boyles law,

P1 × V1 = P2 × V2

Thus;

(1 atm) × (2600 L) = (P2) × (248.5 L)

P2 = 2600/248.5

P2 = 10.463 atmospheres

Approximating to 3 significant figures is; P2 = 10.5 atm
