1. In a survey sample of 83 respondents, about 30.1 percent of the sample work less than 40 hours per week. Calculate a 68 percent confidence interval for the proportion of persons who work less than 40 hours per week.

Answers

Answer 1

Answer:

A 68 percent confidence interval for the proportion of persons who work less than 40 hours per week is (0.251, 0.351), or equivalently (25.1%, 35.1%)

Step-by-step explanation:

We have a large sample size of n = 83 respondents. Let p be the true proportion of persons who work less than 40 hours per week. A point estimate of p is [tex]\hat{p} = 0.301[/tex] because about 30.1 percent of the sample work less than 40 hours per week. We can estimate the standard deviation of [tex]\hat{p}[/tex] as [tex]\sqrt{\hat{p}(1-\hat{p})/n}=\sqrt{0.301(1-0.301)/83} = 0.0503[/tex]. A [tex]100(1-\alpha)%[/tex] confidence interval is given by [tex]\hat{p}\pm z_{\alpha/2}\sqrt{\hat{p}(1-\hat{p})/n[/tex], then, a 68% confidence interval is [tex]0.301\pm z_{0.32/2}0.0503[/tex], i.e., [tex]0.301\pm (0.9944)(0.0503)[/tex], i.e., (0.251, 0.351). [tex]z_{0.16} = 0.9944[/tex] is the value that satisfies that there is an area of 0.16 above this and under the standard normal curve.

Answer 2

Final answer:

To calculate the 68 percent confidence interval for the proportion of persons working less than 40 hours per week from a sample of 83 respondents with a sample proportion of 30.1 percent, we use the formula for the confidence interval for a proportion. The resulting interval is approximately 25.06% to 35.14%.

Explanation:

To calculate a 68 percent confidence interval for the proportion of persons who work less than 40 hours per week from a sample of 83 respondents, where 30.1 percent work less than 40 hours, we use the formula for a confidence interval for a proportion:

In this formula:

p is the sample proportion (0.301 in this case).z* is the z-value corresponding to the desired confidence level (for 68 percent confidence, use the z-value corresponding to one standard deviation from the mean in a standard normal distribution, which is approximately 1).n is the sample size (83).

Plugging the values into the formula we get:

0.301±1*sqrt((0.301(0.699)/83))

Calculating the square root part, we have:

0.301±1*sqrt((0.301*0.699)/83)
= 0.301±1*sqrt(0.210699/83)
= 0.301±1*sqrt(0.002539)
= 0.301±1*0.05039
= 0.301±0.05039

The confidence interval is thus:

0.301-0.05039 to 0.301+0.05039
= 0.25061 to 0.35139

Hence, with a 68 percent confidence level, we can say that the true proportion of the population that works less than 40 hours per week is estimated to be between 25.06% and 35.14%.

Final answer:

Kylie's explanation is incorrect. The simplified expression for (negative 4x + 9) squared is 16x squared - 72x + 81.

Explanation:

Kylie's explanation is incorrect.

The statement that (negative 4x + 9) squared results in a difference of squares is incorrect.

To simplify (negative 4x + 9) squared, we need to multiply the expression by itself. Using the formula (a + b) squared = a squared + 2ab + b squared, we can expand (negative 4x + 9) squared as follows:

(negative 4x + 9) squared = (negative 4x) squared + 2(negative 4x)(9) + (9) squared
= 16x squared - 72x + 81

So, the correct simplification of (negative 4x + 9) squared is 16x squared - 72x + 81, not 16x squared + 81.

Answer:

It is rotated by 72 degrees.

Step-by-step explanation:

Since it is a regular polygon,

        when u connect all the corners of it to the middle of the polygon, they       will meet at a point i.e, CENTER.

The sum of the angles subtended by all the sided at the center will be 360 degrees.As there are 60 sides, the angle subtended by each side at the center will be 6 degrees.

Because,

[tex]\frac{360}{60} = 6[/tex]

As the polygon rotates every minute and it is rotated for 12 minutes,

[tex]12*6 = 72[/tex]

( For every minute, it will be rotated by 6 degrees.

so, for 12 minutes it should be rotated by 12 times 6 ( 12*6) = 72 degrees)

So, after 12 minutes it will be rotated by 72 degrees.

Answers

Answer:

√56/8

Step-by-step explanation:

Let the number be x

f(x) = 8x + 7(1/x)

f(x) = 8x + 7/x

Differentiate f(x) with respect to x

f'(x) = 8x - 7/x = 0

8 - 7/x^2 = 0

(8x^2 - 7)/2 = 0

8x^2 - 7 = 0

8x^2 = 7

x^2 = 7/8

x = √7/8

x = √7 /√8

x = (√7/√8)(√8/√8)

x = (√7*√8) / √8*√8)

x = √56/8

Owen earns a base salary plus a commission that is a percent of his total sales. His total weekly pay is described by f(x)=0.15x+325, where x is his total sales in dollars. What is the change in Owen's salary plan if his total weekly pay function changes to g(x)=0.20+325?

Answers

Answer:

0.05x

This is equivalent to 5% of the total amount of sales.

C) (0.450, 0.490)
D) (0.443, 0.497)

Answers

Answer:

D) (0.443, 0.497)

Step-by-step explanation:

Previous concepts

A confidence interval is "a range of values that’s likely to include a population value with a certain degree of confidence. It is often expressed a % whereby a population means lies between an upper and lower interval".

The margin of error is the range of values below and above the sample statistic in a confidence interval.

Normal distribution, is a "probability distribution that is symmetric about the mean, showing that data near the mean are more frequent in occurrence than data far from the mean".

The confidence interval for a proportion is given by this formula

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

For the 99% confidence interval the value of [tex]\alpha=1-0.99=0.01[/tex] and [tex]\alpha/2=0.005[/tex], with that value we can find the quantile required for the interval in the normal standard distribution.

[tex]z_{\alpha/2}=2.58[/tex]

And replacing into the confidence interval formula we got:

[tex]0.47 - 2.58 \sqrt{\frac{0.47(1-0.47)}{2294}}=0.443[/tex]

[tex]0.47 + 2.58 \sqrt{\frac{0.47(1-0.47)}{2294}}=0.497[/tex]

And the 99% confidence interval would be given (0.443;0.497).

We are confident that about 44.3% to 49.7% of registered voters approved of the job Barack Obama was doing as president.

A farmer is using a barn as one side of a fence to enclose his cattle. If the barn is 80 feet long what is the width of the rectangular enclosure if the farmer has 260 ft. Of fencing to complete the project?

Answers

Answer:

  90 feet

Step-by-step explanation:

The perimeter is the sum of the side lengths of the enclosure. The length is given as 80 ft, but only one side that long counts as part of the 260 ft of fence. So, we have ...

  260 ft = 2×W + L = 2×W + 80 ft . . . . . length of fence for 3 sides

  180 ft = 2×W . . . . . . subtract 80

  90 ft = W . . . . . . . . . divide by 2

The width of the enclosure is 90 feet.

Final answer:

To find the width of the farmer's rectangular enclosure, we subtract the length of the barn (80 ft) from the total amount of fencing available (260 ft) to get the length available for the other three sides. Dividing this by two (because there are two widths), we find that the width of the enclosure will be 90 feet.

Explanation:

The question asks about creating a rectangular enclosure using a fixed length of fencing and a barn as one of the sides. With 260 feet of fencing available and the barn covering one side of 80 feet, the farmer must use the remaining fencing for the other three sides of the rectangle.

To find the width of the rectangular enclosure, we need to subtract the length of the barn side from the total amount of fencing available, and then divide by two (because there are two widths in a rectangle), as follows:

260 ft - 80 ft = 180 ft for both widths, so each width will be

180 ft / 2 = 90 ft.

Therefore, the width of the rectangular enclosure will be 90 feet.

the volume of a cylindrical can is 500cm^3. The materail used to make the top and bottom costs 0.012 cent/cm^2 the material used for the sides costs 0.01 cent?cm^2, and the seam joining the top and bottom to the sides costs .015 cent/cm. what size can would cost the least to produce?

Answers

Answer:

radius: 3.671 cmheight: 11.810 cm

Step-by-step explanation:

The total cost of producing a cylindrical can with radius r and height h will be ...

  cost = (lateral area)×(side cost) +(end area)×(end cost) +(seam length)×(seam cost)

__

The lateral area (LA) is ...

  LA = 2πrh

Since the volume of the can is fixed, we can write the height in terms of the radius using the volume formula.

  V = πr²h

  h = V/(πr²)

Then the lateral area is ...

  LA = 2πr(V/(πr²)) = 2V/r = 2·500/r = 1000/r

__

The end area (EA) is twice the area of a circle of radius r:

  EA = 2×(πr²) = 2πr²

__

The seam length (SL) is twice the circumference of the end:

  SL = 2×(2πr) = 4πr

__

So, the total cost in cents of producing the can, in terms of its radius, is ...

  cost = (1000/r)(0.01) +(2πr²)(.012) +(4πr)(0.015)

We can find the minimum by setting the derivative to zero.

  d(cost)/dr = -10/r² +0.048πr +.06π = 0

Multiplying by r² gives the cubic ...

  0.048πr³ +0.06πr² -10 = 0

  r³ +1.25r² -(625/(3π)) = 0 . . . . . . divide by .048π

This can be solved graphically, or using a spreadsheet to find the value of r to be about 3.671 cm. The corresponding value of h is ...

  h = 500/(π·3.671²) ≈ 11.810 . . . cm

The minimum-cost can will have a radius of about 3.671 cm and a height of about 11.810 cm.

_____

A graphing calculator can find the minimum of the cost function without having to take derivatives and solve a cubic.

Find the values of x and y using trig

Answers

Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:

The triangle is a right angle triangle. This is because one of its angles is 90 degrees.

Let us determine x

Taking 47 degrees as the reference angle,

x = adjacent side

11 = hypotenuse

Applying trigonometric ratio,

Cos # = adjacent side / hypotenuse

# = 47 degrees

Cos 47 = x/11

x = 11cos47

x = 11 × 0.6820

x = 7.502

Let us determine y

Taking 47 degrees as the reference angle,

y = opposite side

11 = hypotenuse

Applying trigonometric ratio,

Sin # = opposite side / hypotenuse

# = 47 degrees

Sin 47 = y/11

x = 11Sin47

x = 11 × 0.7314

x = 8.0454

A recipe Uses 1 1/4 cups of milk to make 10 servings if the same amount of milk is used for each serving how many servings can be made using one gallon of milk

Answers

Answer:

  128

Step-by-step explanation:

There are a couple of ways to go at this. One is to use a proportion:

  (10 servings)/(1.25 cups) = (x servings)/(16 cups)

  160/1.25 = x = 128 . . . . . . . multiply by 16 and simplify

1 gallon of milk will make 128 servings.

__

Another way to go at this is to figure out how much milk is used in one serving. It is ...

  1.25 cups/(10 servings) = 0.125 cups/serving = 1/8 cup/serving

Now, you can work with several different conversion factors:

  1 cup = 8 oz

  1 gal = 128 oz

  1 gal = 16 cups

Obviously 1/8 cup is 1 oz. Since there are 128 oz in a gallon, the gallon will make 128 servings.

__

Or, you can divide 16 cups by (1/8 cup/serving) to find the number of servings:

  (16 cups/gal)/(1/8 cup/serving) = 16·8 servings/gal = 128 servings/gal

A jar contains 800 red and green jelly beans. Of those, 320 are red and the rest are green. What is the ratio of red and green jelly beans?

Answers

Answer:

The ratio is 2 to 3.

Step-by-step explanation:

The jar is comprised of only red and green jelly beans. We are given the number of total beans and the number of red beans. We calculate the number of green beans by doing 800-320 = 480.

The problem is asking for the ratio of red to green jelly beans, which is 320 to 480, or 320/480. Simplified, this is 2/3.

The ratio of red to green jellybeans will be 1/3.

What are ratios and proportion?

Ratio is a quantitative relation between two amounts showing the number of times one value contains or is contained within the other. A statement expressing the equality of two ratios A:B and C:D is called a proportion. We can express proportion as -

A : B ∷ C : D

AND

A x D = B x C

Product of extremes equal to product of means

We have a jar that contains 800 red and green jelly beans. Of those, 320 are red and the rest are green.

Number of red beans = 320

Number of green jelly beans = 800 - 320 = 480

Ratio of red to green jellybeans = 320/480 = 1/3

Therefore, the ratio of red to green jellybeans will be 1/3.

Therefore, our required function is [tex]f(t)=300+0.20t[/tex] and option D is the correct choice.

Based on the Polynomial Remainder Theorem what is the value of the function below when x = 3.

Answers

Answer:

Remainder = 64

Step-by-step explanation:

Given equation,

[tex]x^4+3x^3-6x^2-12x-8[/tex]

Remainder theorem says a polynomial can be reset in terms of its divisor (a) by evaluating the polynomial at x=a

Plug x=3,

[tex]=3^4+3(3)^3-6(3)^2-12(3)-8\\=81+81-54-36-8\\=162-54-36-8\\=64[/tex]

Thus the remainder is 64 at x=3 ,using polynomial remainder theorem.

In a swim-and-run biathlon, An Athlete must get to a point on the other side of a 50 meter wide river, 100 meters downstream from her starting point. Ann can swim 2 m/sec and run 5 m/sec. What path should Ann take in order to minimize her total time?

Answers

Answer:

running distance =   78,18 m

swimmingdistance  =  92m

Step-by-step explanation:

Ann has to run a distance 100 - x    and swim  √ (50)² + x²

at speed of 5 m/sec   and 2 m/sec

As distance  = v*t       t  = d/v

Then running she will spend time doing d = ( 100-x)/5    

and   √[(50)² + x² ] / 2   swimming

Therefore total time of biathlon

t(x)  =  ( 100 - x )/5    +  √[(50)² + x² ] / 2

Taking derivatives both sides of the equation we get

t´(x)  =  - 1/5  + [1/2 ( 2x)*2] / 4√[(50)² + x²]

t´(x)  =  - 1/5  + 2x / 4√[(50)² + x²]      t´(x)  =  - 1/5  + x/2√(50)² + x²

t´(x)  = 0           - 1/5  + x/2√(50)² + x²  = 0

  - 2√[(50)²+  x²]   +  5x     =  0

  - 2√(50)²+  x² ) =  -5x

       √(50)²+  x²   = 5/2 *x

squared

        (50)²  +  x²   = 25/4 x²

             2500 - 21/4 x²  =  0

                           x²  =  2500*4/21

 x  =  21,8 m

Therefore she has to run  100 - 21,82  = 78,18 m

And swim    √(50)² + (78,18)²   =  92m

Final answer:

The question pertains to Physics and involves calculating the optimal path in a swim-and-run biathlon to minimize total time, which would typically involve physics and calculus. However, the scenario is incomplete and lacks necessary information for a precise solution.

Explanation:

The subject of this question is Physics, as it involves concepts of speed, velocity, and optimization of travel paths in a biathlon, which includes both swimming and running. To answer the question on the optimal path Ann should take in the swim-and-run biathlon, we would use principles of physics and calculus to find the path that minimizes the total time. The calculation would involve deriving the functional relationship between swimming and running speeds, and the distances covered in each stage, then determining the point at which Ann should exit the water to reach the end point in the shortest total time. However, since the problem in the question is incomplete and requires additional information, such as the current of the river or whether Ann swims at a constant speed relative to the water, we cannot solve it without making assumptions that may be incorrect.

In a typical start for his baseball team, Rick throws 120 total pitches with a ratio of 3 fastballs thrown for every 2 curveballs. If Rick makes a relief appearance of 30 pitches using the same ratio, how many fastballs will he throw in the relief appearance?

Answers

Answer:

18 fastballs

Step-by-step explanation:

Let x represent each throw

fastball : curve ball = 3:2

For fastball we have 3x while for curve ball we have 2x

If Rick makes a relief appearance of 30 pitches with the same ratio,

3x + 2x = 30

5x = 30

x = 30/5

x = 6

fastball, 3x= 3*6

= 18

curveball = 2x = 2*6

= 12

Rick will throw 18 fast balls

The sum of the ages of Berma, her mother Rinna and her father Erwin is 80. Two years from now, Rinna’s age will be 13 less than the sum of Erwin’s age and twice Berma’s age. Three years ago, 15 times Berma’s age was 5 less than the age of Rinna. How old are they now?

Answers

Answer: Berma is 5 years old

Rinna is 38 years old

Erwin is 37 years old

Step-by-step explanation:

Let x represent Berma's age

Let y represent Rinna's age

Let z represent Erwin's age

Since the sum of their ages is 80,

x + y + z = 80 - - - - - - -1

Two years from now, Rinna’s age will be 13 less than the sum of Erwin’s age and twice Berma’s age. This means that

y +2 = [ (z+2) + 2(x+2) ] - 13

y +2 = z + 2 + 2x + 4 - 13

2x - y + z = 13 + 2 - 4 -2

2x - y + z = 9 - - - - - - -2

Three years ago, 15 times Berma’s age was 5 less than the age of Rinna. It means that

15(x - 3) = (y - 3) - 5

15x - 45 = y - 3 - 5

15x - y = - 8 + 45

15x - y = 37 - - - - - - - -3

From equation 3, y = 15x - 37

Substituting y = 15x - 37 into equation 1 and equation 2, it becomes

x + 15x - 37 + z = 80

16x + z = 80 + 37 = 117 - - - - - - 4

2x - 15x + 37 + z = 9

-13x + 2 = -28 - - - - - - - - -5

subtracting equation 5 from equation 4,

29x = 145

x = 145/29 = 5

y = 15x - 37

y = 15×5 -37

y = 38

Substituting x= 5 and y = 38 into equation 1, it becomes

5 + 38 + z = 80

z = 80 - 43

z = 37
