Recently in a large random sample of teens a proportion of 0.76 teens said they send text messages to friends. the margin of error for a 98% confidence interval was 0.030. (a) what is the sample statistic for the proportion of teens who send text messages to friends

Answers

Answer 1
The following data has been provided:
p = 0.76
Margin of error at 98% confidence = E = 0.030

The point estimate for proportion of of teens who send the text message = p = 0.76

The interval estimate for the proportion of teens who send the text message will be in the range:
( p - E, p + E)

p - E = 0.76 - 0.030 = 0.730
p + E = 0.76 + 0.030 = 0.790

Thus with 98% confidence we can say, the population proportion of teens who send the text message is between 0.730 and 0.790.
Answer 2
Final answer:

The sample statistic for the proportion of teens who send text messages to friends is 0.76 or 76%. This result was obtained with a 98% confidence interval and a margin of error of 0.03.

Explanation:

The sample statistic in this scenario is the proportion of teens who said they send text messages to friends. In statistics, a sample proportion (also known as a sample percentage) is a way to express the count of observations in a category as a ratio or a fraction of the total sample size.

In your case, the sample statistic is 0.76, meaning that 76% of the teens in your sample said they send text messages to friends. This result was accompanied by a margin of error of 0.030 for your 98% confidence interval.

A confidence interval gives an estimated range of values which is likely to include an unknown population parameter, the estimated range being calculated from a given set of sample data.

The margin of error represents the range in which we are confident that the true population proportion lies given our sample statistic. With a confidence level of 98%, we are sure that if we repeated our sample many times, 98% of those samples would produce a proportion between 76%- 3% and 76% + 3%.

Crystal charges a flat fee of $10 plus an additional $5 per hour to babysit given the situation what is the range

Answers

Answer:

perhaps $10 to $10,810

Step-by-step explanation:

We assume Crystal may be willing to babysit for a period of up to 3 months (90 days), so 90×24 = 2160 hours. Her hourly fee for that period will be ...

... (2160 hours) × ($5/hour) = $10,800

That amount added her $10 initial charge may represent the upper limit of her pay. The lower limit will be the $10 initial charge.

_____

Comment on the question

Since no upper limit on hours is given, we conclude the problem is not well-specified.

We can make a variety of different assumptions regarding the upper limit of babysitting time.

We might choose to consider this a daily charge, so the upper limit is $130 per day. We might consider that Crystal is willing to babysit while the child's parents are on a 2-week vacation. We might consider that Crystal is willing to babysit for the duration of her summer vacation from school (about 3 months). This is the assumption we use here.

Your friend asks you to make picture frames and will give you 5 5 nickels for the first frame. You agree to help if she multiplies your payment by 5 5 for each frame completed. After 2 2 frames, you will receive 25 25 nickels, and after 3 3 frames, you will receive 125 125 nickels. What is the number of nickels for tenth frame?

Answers

Final answer:

To find the number of nickels for the tenth frame, we calculate 5  imes 5^9, which equals 9,765,625 nickels. This is a geometric sequence where the common ratio is 5, and the first term for the first frame is 5 nickels.

Explanation:

The question asks about the payment received for making picture frames where the payment is multiplied by 5 for each subsequent frame. To find out the number of nickels for the tenth frame, we can use the concept of geometric sequences, where each term is found by multiplying the previous term by a common ratio. The common ratio in this case is 5.

For the first frame, you get 5 nickels. For the second frame, 5 multiplied by 5 is 25 nickels. To find the payment for the tenth frame, we multiply the payment of the first frame by the common ratio to the power of the frame number minus one: 5  imes 5^(10-1) = 5  imes 5^9.

Calculating 5 to the power of 9 gives us 1,953,125. Multiplying this by 5 gives us 9,765,625 nickels for the tenth frame.

Select the situation in which one quantity is changing at a constant rate in relation to the other quantity.
a. Barry spends $9 on lunch daily.
b. The market value of a new computer decreases by 6% every year.
c. Nathan's investments increase in value by 13.5% each month.
d. The number of ants in a colony doubles every 8 weeks.

Answers

Choice A is the only one that is changing at a constant rate. The reason is that for all three other choices the new rate is based on a different amount after the percent has been applied or the doubling of the ants has been applied. The price per day for the lunch Is constant because whatever the number of days is the amount would always stay the same for each of those days.

Answer:

A. Barry spends $9 on lunch daily.

Step-by-step explanation:

We are required,

To find the situation in which one constant is changing at a constant rate in relation to the other quantity.

So, according to the options, we have,

A. Barry spends $9 on lunch daily.

Let x= number of days and as the cost of lunch each day is $9

Then, the total cost of the lunch y, is [tex]y=9x[/tex]

Thus, this situation changes the variable with constant rate.

B. The market value of a new computer decreases by 6% every year.

Let, a= fixed initial value of the computer and x= number of years.

Since, the rate of decrease in value = 6% = 0.06

Then, the market value of the computer per year, y, is given by,

[tex]y=a(1-0.06)^x\\\\y=a(0.94)^x[/tex]

Thus, this situation changes the variable exponentially.

C. Nathan's investments increase in value by 13.5% each month.  

Let, a= fixed initial investment and x= number of months.

Since, the rate of increase = 13.5% = 0.135

Then, the investment per month, y, is given by,

[tex]y=a(1+0.135)^x\\\\y=a(1.135)^x[/tex]

Thus, this situation changes the variable exponentially.

D. The number of ants in a colony doubles every 8 weeks.

Let, x= number of weeks where 'x' belongs to the se {1,8,16,24,...}.

Since, the number of ants is doubling every 8 weeks.

So, the number of ants in the colony, y, is [tex]y=2^x[/tex]

Thus, this situation changes the variable exponentially.

Hence, the situation that changes the variables with a constant rate is A.

If 8 identical blackboards are to be divided among 4 schools, how many divisions are possible? how many if each school must receive at least 1 black- board?

Answers

We usually distribute smartboards instead of blackboards these days! 

We have a stars and bars problem.

We represent the blackboards by n=8 stars,  and divide into k=4 schools  (A,B, C & D) using three bars.  Two consecutive bars or a bar at the end means that school has no blackboards.

For example, 
*|***|*|***
Means there are two schools with 1 blackboard, and two other ones with three blackboards.  Another example:
|*||*******
will mean there are two schools (A &C) with no boards, and B will have one, while school D will have 7.

So the problem reduces to counting the number of ways we can put the three identical bars. 

If there is no minimum number of boards for each school, then we can place the k=4 bars at n+1=8+1=9 locations each. 
Using combination notation, there are
C(n+1, k-1)=C(8+1,4-1)=C(9,3)=9!/(3!(9-3)!)=84 ways of distributing 8 blackboards to 4 schools.

On the other hand, if there is a minimum of one board for each school, then each school will get one, leaving 4 to be distributed as above, in
C(4+1,4-1)=C(5,3)=5!/(3!(5-3)!)=10 ways.

If male and female college students work an average of 15 hours per week during the school year and the standard deviation is 5.4 for male students and 2.3 for female students, what may we conclude?

Answers

The variance of hours males spend working is almost two times as large as females. 60% of those females are more likely to work between 12.7 to 17.3 hours while 60% of the males work between 9.6 to 20.3 hours based on one standard deviation.

Answer: the male sample is more spread than the female sample

Step-by-step explanation:

The mean is the same for both genres, but the standard deviation form males is bigger than the one for females.

This means that the data of the male students is more spread than the female data (so there are more male students that study more hours, but there also are more male students that study less hours).

So the general conclusion is that the male sample is more spread than the female sample

Final answer:

The area of a circle with a radius of 2m is 12.56 m² and the circumference is 12.56 m when using 3.14 for π, with both answers having two significant figures due to the radius given with two significant figures.

Explanation:

The area (A) and the circumference of a circle with radius 2m can be found using the formulas A = πr² and C = 2πr. Using 3.14 as the value for π, the calculations would be A = (3.14)(2m)² = 12.56 m² for the area, and C = 2(3.14)(2m) = 12.56 m for the circumference. It is important to note that when performing calculations, the result should have the same number of significant figures as the quantity with the fewest significant figures used in the calculation.

The solution of the equation is  x = ±3. 162.

What is equation?

An equation is a mathematical statement that is made up of two expressions connected by an equal sign.

Parts of an Equation

There are different parts of an equation which include coefficients, variables, operators, constants, terms, expressions, and an equal to sign. When we write an equation, it is mandatory to have an "=" sign, and terms on both sides. Both sides should be equal to each other. An equation doesn't need to have multiple terms on either of the sides, having variables, and operators.

An equation can be formed without these as well, for example, 5 + 10 = 15. This is an arithmetic equation with no variables.

Given:

x² = 10

Now to solve the above equation we have to take the square root on both side, we get

√x² = √10

x= ±√10

x= ±3. 162 ( because root provides two values one is positive and other is negative)

Hence, the value of x is  ±3. 162.
