Suppose a certain study reported that 27.7% of high school students smoke.
Random samples are selected from high school that has 632 students.
(i) If a random sample of 60 students is selected, what is the probability that
fewer than 19 of the students smoke?
(ii) If a random sample of 75 students is selected, what is the probability that
more than 17 of the students smoke?

Answers

Answer 1

The correct answer of the question is "0.7062" and "0.835". The further solution is provided below.

Given:

Probability of student smoke,

P = 27.7%

  = 0.277

Number of students (n) = 632

[tex]q = 1-p[/tex]

  [tex]=1-0.277[/tex]

  [tex]=0.723[/tex]

(i)

Here,

Number of students (n) = 60

then,

⇒ [tex]n_P=60\times 0.277[/tex]

         [tex]=16.62[/tex]

⇒ [tex]n_q=60\times 0.723[/tex]

        [tex]=43.38[/tex]

We can see that [tex]n_P > 10[/tex] and [tex]n_q>10[/tex] so the normal approximation condition are met.

Now,

[tex]\mu = n_P= 16.62[/tex]

[tex]\sigma = \sqrt{n_{Pq}}[/tex]

  [tex]= \sqrt{60\times 0.277\times 0.723}[/tex]

  [tex]=3.9664[/tex]

Now,

⇒ [tex]P(X<19) = P(X<18.5)[/tex]

                      [tex]=P(Z_{18.5})[/tex]

The Z-score is:

= [tex]\frac{18.5-16.62}{3.4664}[/tex]

= [tex]0.5423[/tex]

hence,

The probability will be:

⇒ [tex]P(Z_{18.5}) = 0.7062[/tex]

or,

⇒ [tex]P(Z<19) = 0.7062[/tex]

(ii)

Here,

Number of students (n) = 75

[tex]\mu = n_P = 75\times 0.277[/tex]

            [tex]=20.775[/tex]

[tex]\sigma = \sqrt{n_{Pq}}[/tex]

   [tex]=\sqrt{75\times 0.277\times 0.723}[/tex]

   [tex]=3.8756[/tex]

Now,

⇒ [tex]P(X>17) = P(X> 17.5)[/tex]

                      [tex]=1-P(X \leq 17.5)[/tex]

                      [tex]=1-P(Z_{17.5})[/tex]

The Z-score is:

= [tex]\frac{17.5-20.775}{3.8756}[/tex]

= [tex]-0.9740[/tex]

then, [tex]P(Z_{17.5}) = 0.165[/tex]

hence,

The probability will be:

⇒ [tex]P(X>17) = 1-0.165[/tex]

                      [tex]=0.835[/tex]

1. A FoodPanda rider believes that his tips from various customers has a slightly right skewness with a mean of RM10 and a standard deviation of RM2.50. a. Calculate the mean and standard deviation of the sampling distribution of this tips for a sample of 25 customers. Describe the shape of its sampling distribution. [4 marks]​

Answers

Using the Central Limit Theorem, it is found that:

The sampling distribution is slightly right skewed, with mean of RM 10 and standard deviation of RM 0.5.

The Central Limit Theorem establishes that, for a normally distributed random variable X, with mean [tex]\mu[/tex] and standard deviation [tex]\sigma[/tex], the sampling distribution of the sample means with size n can be approximated to a normal distribution with mean [tex]\mu[/tex] and standard deviation [tex]s = \frac{\sigma}{\sqrt{n}}[/tex].

For a skewed variable, if the sample size is at least 30, the shape is approximately normal, otherwise it still is skewed.

In this problem, the mean is of 10 and the standard deviation is of 2.50, hence [tex]\mu = 10, \sigma = 2.5[/tex]

Sample of 25, hence [tex]n = 25, s = \frac{2.5}{\sqrt{25}} = 0.5[/tex]

Since the underlying distribution is skewed and the sample size is less than 30, the shape of the sampling distribution is slightly right skewed.

The sampling distribution is slightly right skewed, with mean of RM 10 and standard deviation of RM 0.5.

4. Prove or disprove the following statement: Given two numbers, increasing both numbers by 10% results in two numbers whose difference is the same as the difference of the two original numbers. Give a numerical example and explain.​

Answers

Step-by-step explanation:

increase by 10% is the same as multiplying by 1.1.

so, we get the assumption that

x - y = 1.1x - 1.1y = 1.1(x - y)

for the case that x <> y, now we can divide both sides by (x - y) and get

1 = 1.1

and that is wrong in all cases.

so, it is disproven for all x <> y.

for x = y the statement is true, the difference is in both cases 0.

e.g.

100 and 200

the difference is 100

100+10% = 110

200+10% = 220

and the difference is 110 (different to the original 100).

but 100 and 100, sure, the difference is 0, and the difference between 110 and 110 is still 0.

Domain means all the x's on the graph. The x's that you can literally see on the graph and for what you can't see it's all the x's you can put into the equation...for this graph, when you reflect it across the x-axis it is still the same shape, just a peak instead of a V. So the y's (range) are VERY different on the graph and its reflection. But the x's (that's the domain!) Are all still there, still on the graph, still allowed in the equation. See image

Domain is the set of values for which the given function is defined.

Range is the set of all values which the given function can output.

Your restaurant can seat 150 guests. If 6 tables of 6 are seated, what percent of the restaurant seating is still empty?

Answers

Answer:

76%

Step-by-step explanation:

First, we know that 6 tables of 6 are already seated. We can go ahead and multiply 6 by 6, which is 36.

This means that 36 of the 150 seats are already taken.

But, we want to find the amount of seats that are still empty. So, we subtract 36 from 150 to get 114 seats.

The question is asking for the percentage, so we can divide 114 by 150 seats to get 0.76. Then, we have to move the decimal to the right 2 spaces to get 76%

Answer:

76% of the restaurant is still empty

Step-by-step explanation:

6 tables of 6 seated means there are currently 36 people seated. If the restaurant can seat 150 people, 76% of the restaurant is still empty.

Answers

Answer:

23 measure

Step-by-step explanation:

because 56/7 = 8

so 104/8=23

Answer:

13 measures

Step-by-step explanation:

for every 7 measures, there is 56 beats. and if you want to find out how many beats there are per measure, you would do 56 ÷ 7 = 8.

Now that you've found thay there are 8 beats per measure, you would divide 104 by 8 to find out how many measurs there are.

104 ÷ 8 = 13

A city park is in the shape of a triangle where
the sides have lengths 170 m, 162 m, and
177 m. If a fence was built around the
perimeter of the park, how long would the
fence need to be?

Answers

Answer:

solution here

length

c=170

a=162

b=177

perimeter=?

now,

perimeter of triangle = a+b+c

=170+162+177

=511

perimeter=511 cm

perimeter = length of fence

therefore,the fence should be 511 cm long.

The length of the fence needed would be 509 meters.

What is a triangle?A triangle is a two - dimensional figure with three sides and three angles.The sum of the angles of the triangle is equal to 180 degrees.

Given is that a city park is in the shape of a triangle where the sides have lengths 170 m, 162 m, and 177 m.

The length of the fence needed would be the perimeter of the triangle. We can write the perimeter of the triangle as -

P = sum of the side lengths

P = 170 + 162 + 177

P = 509 meters

Therefore, the length of the fence needed would be 509 meters.
