A sociologist recently conducted a survey of citizens over 60 years of age who have net worths too high to qualify for Medicaid but have no private health insurance. The ages of the 25 uninsured senior citizens were as follows:
68 73 66 76 86 74 61 89 65 90 69 92 76
62 81 63 68 81 70 73 60 87 75 64 82
Find the upper quartile of the data.
a) 65.5
b) 92
c) 81.5
d) 073

Answers

Answer 1

Answer:

c) 81.5

Step-by-step explanation:

Listing the 25 ages in crescent order:

60 61 62 63 64 65 66 68 68 69 70 73 73 74 75 76 76 81 81 82 86 87 89 90 92

The upper or third quartile's position is given by:

[tex]Q_3=N_{\frac{3}{4}(n+1)}\\Q_3}=N_{\frac{3}{4}(25+1)}=N_{19.5}[/tex]

This means that the third quartile is the average between the 19th and 20th numbers:

[tex]Q_3=\frac{81+82}{2} \\Q_3 = 81.5[/tex]

The upper quartile is 81.5.

We are planning on introducing a new internet device that should drastically reduce the amount of viruses on personal computers. We think the price should be $39.99, but are not sure on the percentage of people that would buy it. We do some research and find the following information; Studies from the 1930’s indicate that percentage should be between 30% and 40% Similar products were launched recently at a price of $4,000 and nobody bought it. A nationwide poll on this type of product and price was run earlier this year, with percentages running from 75% to 80%. We are going to conduct an additional focus group before we launch the product. What should the sample size be if we want a 95% CI to be within 5% of the actual value?

Answers

Answer:

The sample size required is 289.

Step-by-step explanation:

Let p be population proportion of people that would buy the product.

It is provided that the nationwide poll on this type of product and price was run earlier this year, with percentages running from 75% to 80%.

Assume that the sample proportion of people that would buy the product is, [tex]\hat p=0.75[/tex].

A 95% Confidence Interval is to be constructed with a margin of error of 5%.

We need to determine the sample size required for the 95% Confidence Interval to be within 5% of the actual value.

The formula to compute the margin of error for a (1 - α)% confidence interval of population proportion is:

[tex]MOE=z_{\alpha/2}\times\sqrt{\frac{\hat p(1-\hat p)}{n}}[/tex]

The critical value of z for 95% confidence interval is,

z = 1.96.

Compute the sample size required as follows:

[tex]MOE=z_{\alpha/2}\times\sqrt{\frac{\hat p(1-\hat p)}{n}}[/tex]

      [tex]n=[\frac{z_{\alpha/2}\ \sqrt{\hat p(1-\hat p)} }{MOE}]^{2}[/tex]

         [tex]=[\frac{1.96\cdot \sqrt{0.75(1-0.75)} }{0.05}]^{2}\\\\=(16.9741)^{2}\\\\=288.12007081\\\\\approx 289[/tex]

Thus, the sample size required is 289.

Use z scores to compare the given values. Based on sample​ data, newborn males have weights with a mean of 3259.6 g and a standard deviation of 722.4 g. Newborn females have weights with a mean of 3031.2 g and a standard deviation of 495.9 g. Who has the weight that is more extreme relative to the group from which they​ came: a male who weighs 1700 g or a female who weighs 1700 ​g? Since the z score for the male is zequals nothing and the z score for the female is zequals nothing​, the female female male has the weight that is more extreme.

Answers

Answer:

Since the z score for the male is z=-2.1589 and the z score for the female is z=-2.6844​, the female has the weight that is more extreme.

Step-by-step explanation:

To find the z score, we use the following equation:

[tex]z=\frac{x-m}{s}[/tex]

Where m is the mean and s is the standard deviation.

So, the z score for a male who weighs 1700 g is:

[tex]z=\frac{1700-3259.6}{722.4}=-2.1589[/tex]

At the same way, the z score for a female who weighs 1700 g is:

[tex]z=\frac{1700-3031.2}{495.9}=-2.6844[/tex]

Finally, -2.6844 is farther from zero than -2.1589, so the female has the weight that is more extreme.

Step-by-step explanation:

→The function F(x) narrowed, meaning the absolute value being multiplied to the function is greater than 1.

→The function F(x) flipped over the x-axis, this means that the number being multiplied has to be a negative.

→The function F(x) shifted to the left 2 units, this means there needs to be a 2 being added.

→The function F(x) shifted downwards 2 units, meaning there needs to be a 2 being subtracted from the whole function.

This gives us the correct answer of "B. F(x) = 3(x - 2)² - 2."

There are 390 students at Walker Elementary this year. This is a 30% increase from the previous year. How many students were at Walker Elementary last year?

Answers

Answer:

There were 300 students

Step-by-step explanation:

Original * 30 = increase

Add the increase to get the new number

original + increase = 308

original + original*30% = 390

Factor out original number

original ( 1+30%) = 390

Change to decimal form

original ( 1+.30) = 390

original ( 1.30) = 390

Divide by 1.3

original = 390/1.3

             =300

In a study investigating the effect of car speed on accident severity, 5000 reports of fatal automobile accidents were examined, and the vehicle speed at impact was recorded for each one. For these 5000 accidents, the average speed was 42 mph and the standard deviation was 15 mph. A histogram revealed that the vehicle speed at impact distribution was approximately normal.

a. Roughly what proportion of vehicle speeds were between 27 and 57 mph?

b. Roughly what proportion of vehicle speeds exceeded 57 mph?

Answers

Answer:

(a) Roughly 68% of vehicle speeds were between 27 and 57 mph.

(b) Roughly 16% of vehicle speeds exceeded 57 mph.

Step-by-step explanation:

We are given that in a study investigating the effect of car speed on accident severity, 5000 reports of fatal automobile accidents were examined.

For these 5000 accidents, the average speed was 42 mph and the standard deviation was 15 mph.

Let X = vehicle speed at impact

SO, X ~ Normal([tex](\mu=42,\sigma^{2} = 15^{2}[/tex])

Here, [tex]\mu[/tex] = population average speed = 42 mph

         [tex]\sigma[/tex] = standard deviation = 15 mph

Since, the distribution is approximately normal; so the 68-95-99.7 empirical rule states that;

68% of the data values lies within one standard deviation points.95% of the data values lies within two standard deviation points.99.7% of the data values lies within three standard deviation points.

(a) Since, it is stated above that 68% of the data values lies within one standard deviation points, that means;

68% data values will lie between [ [tex]\mu-\sigma , \mu+\sigma[/tex] ] , i.e;

        [ [tex]\mu-\sigma , \mu+\sigma[/tex] ]  =  [42 + 15 , 42 - 15]

                                 =  [57 , 27]

So, it means that roughly 68% of vehicle speeds were between 27 and 57 mph.

(b) We have observed above that roughly 68% of vehicle speeds were between 27 and 57 mph which leads us to the conclusion that (100% - 68% = 32%) of the data values will be outside this range.

It is stated that of this 32%, half of the data values will be less than 27 mph and half of the data values will be more than 57 mph.

This means that roughly 16% of vehicle speeds exceeded 57 mph.

One day Pat Unger worked for a total of 8
hours. She worked 3 hours more in the after-
noon than she worked in the morning. How
long did she work in the afternoon?

Answers

Answer:

5.5 hours

Step-by-step explanation:

Let the no. of hours worked in morning by Pat = x hours

given that "She worked 3 hours more in the after-

noon than she worked in the morning"

No. of hours worked in Afternoon by Pat = x + 3  hours

Total hours worked in the day = x + x+3 = 2x +3 hours  (1)

It is given that Pat worked for 8 hours that day (2)

thus, using 1 and 2 we have

2x +3  =  8

=>2x = 8 - 3 = 5

=> x = 5/2 = 2.5

no. of hours worked in morning by Pat = x hours = 2.5 hours

No. of hours worked in Afternoon by Pat = x + 3  hours = 2.5 + 3 hours

 No. of hours worked in Afternoon by Pat = 5.5 hours --- Answer.

In the United States, the mean and standard deviation of adult men's heights are 70 inches (5 feet 10 inches) and 4 inches, respectively. Suppose the American adult men's heights have a normal distribution Whe probability that a randomly chosen American man is taller than 6 feet (72 inches) is equal to:___________. (round off to fourth decimal place, use the given table)
a. 0.6853
b. 0.0062
c. 0.3085
d.0.6915
e. None of these

Answers

Answer:

[tex]P(X>72)=P(\frac{X-\mu}{\sigma}>\frac{72-\mu}{\sigma})=P(Z>\frac{72-70}{4})=P(z>0.5)[/tex]

And we can find this probability using the complement rule and the normal standard table:

[tex]P(z>0.5)=1-P(z<0.5)= 1- 0.69146= 0.3085[/tex]

And the best solution would be:

c. 0.3085

Step-by-step explanation:

For this case we can convert all the values to inches in order to standardize the solution:

[tex] 5ft * \frac{12 in}{1ft}= 60 in[/tex]

[tex] 6ft * \frac{12 in}{1ft}= 72 in[/tex]

Let X the random variable that represent the heights of US mens, and for this case we know the distribution for X is given by:

[tex]X \sim N(70,4)[/tex]  

Where [tex]\mu=70[/tex] and [tex]\sigma=4[/tex]

We are interested on this probability

[tex]P(X>72)[/tex]

We can use the z score formula given by:

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

Using this formula we got:

[tex]P(X>72)=P(\frac{X-\mu}{\sigma}>\frac{72-\mu}{\sigma})=P(Z>\frac{72-70}{4})=P(z>0.5)[/tex]

And we can find this probability using the complement rule and the normal standard table:

[tex]P(z>0.5)=1-P(z<0.5)= 1- 0.69146= 0.3085[/tex]

And the best solution would be:

c. 0.3085

Using the normal distribution, it is found that the probability that a randomly chosen American man is taller than 6 feet (72 inches) is equal to:

c. 0.3085

In a normal distribution with mean [tex]\mu[/tex] and standard deviation [tex]\sigma[/tex], the z-score of a measure X is given by:

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

It 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, which is the percentile of X.

In this problem:

Mean of 70 inches, thus [tex]\mu = 70[/tex].Standard deviation of 4 inches, thus [tex]\sigma = 4[/tex].

The probability of being taller than 72 inches is 1 subtracted by the p-value of Z when X = 72, thus:

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

[tex]Z = \frac{72 - 70}{4}[/tex]

[tex]Z = 0.5[/tex]

[tex]Z = 0.5[/tex] has a p-value of 0.6915.

1 - 0.6915 = 0.3085

Thus, option c.

Answers

Answer: a) 39.5%

Step-by-step explanation:

For random selections, we assume that all the dogs have the same probability of being selected.

In this case, the probability will be equal to the number of golden retrievers divided the total number of dogs.

We have 58 golden retrievers, and the total number of dogs is:

31 + 58 +20 + 38 = 147

Then the probability is:

P = 58/147 = 0.395

If we multiply it by 100%, we obtain the percentage form:

0.395*100% = 39.5%

So the correct option is a.
