1) A school has 1600 students and they are going to vote as to whether they will completely convert the school completely off fossil fuels. How many students would you have to poll to be 95% confident of the outcome within /- 2% of the vote

Answers

Answer 1

Answer:

Standard deviation of the students = 0.408

The students would you have to poll to be 95% confident of the outcome within /- 2% of the vote  

         = 0.408 X 1600

         = 652.8    

Step-by-step explanation:  

Step(i):-

Given sample size 'n' = 1600

95% confidence interval of the margin error is determined by

                      [tex]M.E = \frac{Z_{0.05} S.D}{\sqrt{n} }[/tex]

Level of significance = 0.05

Z₀.₀₅ = 1.96

Given Margin of error = 2% = 0.02

       [tex]M.E = \frac{Z_{0.05} S.D}{\sqrt{n} }[/tex]

       [tex]0.02 = \frac{1.96 X S.D}{\sqrt{1600} }[/tex]

      0.02 X √1600 = 1.96 X S.D

       [tex]S.D = \frac{0.02X\sqrt{1600} }{1.96} = 0.408[/tex]

Standard deviation of the students = 0.408

The students would you have to poll to be 95% confident of the outcome within /- 2% of the vote  

         = 0.408 X 1600

         = 652.8  

Answer 2

Using the z-distribution, it is found that you would have to poll 2401 students.

In a sample with a number n of people surveyed with a probability of a success of [tex]\pi[/tex], and a confidence level of [tex]\alpha[/tex], we have the following confidence interval of proportions.

[tex]\pi \pm z\sqrt{\frac{\pi(1-\pi)}{n}}[/tex]

In which z is the z-score that has a p-value of [tex]\frac{1+\alpha}{2}[/tex].

The margin of error is:

[tex]M = z\sqrt{\frac{\pi(1-\pi)}{n}}[/tex]

95% confidence level, hence[tex]\alpha = 0.95[/tex], z is the value of Z that has a p-value of [tex]\frac{1+0.95}{2} = 0.975[/tex], so [tex]z = 1.96[/tex].

There is no prior estimate, hence [tex]\pi = 0.5[/tex] is used.

The sample size is n for which M = 0.02, hence:

[tex]M = z\sqrt{\frac{\pi(1-\pi)}{n}}[/tex]

[tex]0.02 = 1.96\sqrt{\frac{0.5(0.5)}{n}}[/tex]

[tex]0.02\sqrt{n} = 1.96(0.5)[/tex]

[tex]\sqrt{n} = \left(\frac{1.96(0.5)}{0.02}\right)[/tex]

[tex](\sqrt{n})^2 = \left(\frac{1.96(0.5)}{0.02}\right)^2[/tex]

[tex]n = 2401[/tex]

You would have to poll 2401 students.

Kevin’s rate of change is _______. Dylan’s because Kevin sells_______ cars per year employed and Dylan sells ________ cars per year employed.

Answers

Answer:

I been trying to look for that answer for so long but can we help each other at least

Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:

We have  Kevin's sales equation is

[tex]S=60n-5[/tex]

Step 1

Find out Dylan's sales equation

Find the slope

We need two points

We take

[tex](2,104)[/tex] And [tex](6,324)[/tex]

[tex]m=(324-104)/(6-2)[/tex]

[tex]m=\frac{220}{4} \\m=55[/tex]

Find the equation in slope intercept form

[tex]s=mn+b[/tex]

We have

[tex]m=55[/tex]

point [tex](2,104)[/tex]

Substitute and solve for b

[tex]104=55(2)+b\\[/tex]

[tex]b=104-110\\b=-6\\[/tex]

So

[tex]S=55n-6\\[/tex]

Therefore

Kevin's rate of change is 60

Dylan's rate of change is 55

Compare

Kevin's rate of change is greater than Dylan's rate of change because Kevin's sell 60 cars per year and Dylan's sells 55 cars per year.

16. If y varies directly as x, and x = 9 when y = 15, find y when x = 33?​

Answers

Answer:

y=55 when x is 33

Step-by-step explanation:

Use the direct variation formula:

[tex]\frac{y}{x} =k[/tex]  or [tex]\frac{y}{x} =\frac{y}{x}[/tex]

Insert the given values:

[tex]\frac{15}{9}=\frac{y}{33}[/tex]

To simplify the equation, cross multiply:

[tex]15(33)=9(y)\\\\495=9y[/tex]

Isolate the variable. Divide both sides by 9:

[tex]\frac{495}{9} =\frac{9y}{9} \\\\55=y[/tex]

Therefore, when x is 33, y is 55.

what’s the slope?
a line has the given equation y=-3x-10

Answers

Answer: -3

Step by Step Explanation: This type of equation is called slope-intercept form, y=mx+b; the slope is m, so the slope is -3

Answer: slope= -6.0/2.0= -3.0

Step-by-step explanation:

Slope is defined as the change in y divided by the change in x. We note that for x=0, the value of y is -10.000 and for x=2.000, the value of y is -16.000. So, for a change of 2.000 in x (The change in x is sometimes referred to as "RUN") we get a change of -16.000 - (-10.000) = -6.000 in y. (The change in y is sometimes referred to as "RISE" and the Slope is m = RISE / RUN)

x-intercept = -10/3 = -3.33333

 y-intercept = -10/1 = -10.00000

Probability. A professor rides his bike to work some days and drives his car on the other days. On any day there is an 80% chance the professor will ride his bike and a 20% chance he will take his car. If the professor rides his bike, there is a 10% chance he will be late. If he takes his car, theres a 5% chance he will be late. 18. What is the probability the professor is late

Answers

Answer:

0.09

Step-by-step explanation:

Given :

P(bike) = 0.8

P(car) = 0.2

P(Late given car) = P(Late | car) = 0.05

P(Late given bike) = p(Late | bike) = 0.1

Probability that professor is late :

P(late) = [P(Late | car) * p(car)] + [p(Late | bike) * p(bike)]

P(late) = [0.05 * 0.2] + [0.1 * 0.8]

P(late) = 0.01 + 0.08

P(late) = 0.09

We need to find the regression equation y = bx + a

Where [tex]b=\frac{SP}{SS_x} \:and\: a=M_y-bM_x[/tex]

Sum of all values of x = 245

Sum of all values of y = 30

Now, calculating mean using formula: [tex]Mean=\frac{Sum\:of\:all|\:values}{Number\:of\:values}[/tex]

Mean of x (Mₓ) = 35

Mean of y ([tex]M_y[/tex]) = 4.28

Sum of squares (SSₓ) = 700

Sum of products (SP) = -190

Now, finding b:

[tex]b=\frac{SP}{SS_x} \\b=\frac{-190}{700}\\b=-0.271[/tex]

Now, finding a:

[tex]a=M_y-bM_x\\a=4.28-(-0.271*35)\\a=13.786[/tex]

So, the required equation is:

10) A survey of business students who had taken the Graduate Management Admission Test (GMAT) indicated that students who have spent at least five hours studying GMAT review guides have a probability of 0.85 of scoring above 400. Students who do not spend at least five hours reviewing have a probability of 0.65 of scoring above 400. It has been determined that 70% of the business students spent at least five hours reviewing for the test. a. Find the probability of scoring above 400. b. Find the probability that given a student scored above 400, he/she spent at least five hours reviewing for the test.

Answers

Answer:

0.79 ; 0.753

Step-by-step explanation:

Given that:

Students who have spent at least five hours studying GMAT review guides have a probability of 0.85 of scoring above 400 :

≥ 5 hours review = 0.85

Students who do not spend at least five hours reviewing have a probability of 0.65 of scoring above 400

< 5 hours = 0.65

70% (0.7) of business students spend atleast 5 hours review time

A.) probability of scoring above 400

(Proportion who spend atleast 5 hours review time * 0.85) + (Proportion who do not spend atleast 5 hours * 0.65)

Proportion who do not spend atleast 5 hours = (1 - proportion who spend atleast 5 hours) = 1 - 0.7 = 0.3

Hence,

P(scoring above 400) = (0.7 * 0.85) + (0.3 * 0.65) = 0.595 + 0.195

= 0.79

B.) probability that given a student scored above 400, he/she spent at least five hours reviewing for the test.

P(spent ≥5 hours review | score above 400) :

P(spent ≥5 hours review) / P(score > 400)

(0.7 * 0.85) / 0.79

0.595 / 0.79

= 0.753
