A market researcher analyzing the fast-food industry noticed the following: The historical average amount spent at an upscale restaurant was $150.30, with a standard deviation of $50. The researcher wishes to have a sampling error of $5 or less and be 95 percent confident of an estimate to be made about average amount spent at an upscale restaurant from a survey. What sample size should be used (round the number up)

Answers

Answer 1

Answer:

A sample size of 385 should be used.

Step-by-step explanation:

We have that to find our [tex]\alpha[/tex] level, that is the subtraction of 1 by the confidence interval divided by 2. So:

[tex]\alpha = \frac{1 - 0.95}{2} = 0.025[/tex]

Now, we have to find z in the Ztable as such z has a pvalue of [tex]1 - \alpha[/tex].

That is z with a pvalue of [tex]1 - 0.025 = 0.975[/tex], so Z = 1.96.

Now, find the margin of error M as such

[tex]M = z\frac{\sigma}{\sqrt{n}}[/tex]

In which [tex]\sigma[/tex] is the standard deviation of the population and n is the size of the sample.

What sample size should be used (round the number up)

A sample of n should be used.

n is found when M = 5.

We have that [tex]\sigma = 50[/tex]

[tex]M = z\frac{\sigma}{\sqrt{n}}[/tex]

[tex]5 = 1.96\frac{50}{\sqrt{n}}[/tex]

[tex]5\sqrt{n} = 1.96*50[/tex]

Simplifying by 10

[tex]\sqrt{n} = 1.96*10[/tex]

[tex]\sqrt{n} = 19.6[/tex]

[tex](\sqrt{n})^2 = (19.6)^2[/tex]

[tex]n = 384.16[/tex]

Rounding up

A sample size of 385 should be used.

cost price of television is Rs 40000.The profit is 1/9 of selling price ,find the selling price .

Answers

Answer:

₹45000

Step-by-step explanation:

Let the selling price (SP) of the television be ₹x.

Therefore,

Profit [tex] =\frac{1}{9}x[/tex]

Cost price (CP) = ₹ 40000

[tex]Profit = SP - CP \\ \\ \frac{1}{9}x = x - 40000 \\ \\ \frac{x}{9} - x = - 40000 \\ \\ \frac{x - 9x}{9} = - 40000 \\ \\ - \frac{8}{9} x = - 40000 \\ \\ x = 40000 \times \frac{9}{8} \\ \\ x = 5000 \times 9 \\ \\ x = 45000[/tex]

At a Beirut market, oranges are priced at $1.29/KG. Ms. X buys 10 oranges that have a total weight of 4.82 kgs. What is the average price per orange that she pays?

Answers

Answer:

The average price of each orange is $0.62.

Step-by-step explanation:

Given that at a Beirut market, oranges are priced at $ 1.29 per kilo, and Ms. X buys 10 oranges that have a total weight of 4.82 kilograms, to determine what is the average price per orange that she pays must perform the following calculation:

(4.82 x 1.29) / 10 = X

6.21 / 10 = X

0.62 = X

Thus, the average price of each orange is $ 0.62.

A machine used to fill beverage cans is supposed to supply exactly 16 ounces toeach can, but the actualamount supplied varies randomly from can to can. The machine is calibrated so that the population standard deviation is 0.04 ounces. How many filled cans must be sampled so that we estimate the mean fill volume within 0.015 ounces with 99% confidence

Answers

Answer:

48 cans must be sampled.

Step-by-step explanation:

We have that to find our [tex]\alpha[/tex] level, that is the subtraction of 1 by the confidence interval divided by 2. So:

[tex]\alpha = \frac{1 - 0.99}{2} = 0.005[/tex]

Now, we have to find z in the Ztable as such z has a pvalue of [tex]1 - \alpha[/tex].

That is z with a pvalue of [tex]1 - 0.005 = 0.995[/tex], so Z = 2.575.

Now, find the margin of error M as such

[tex]M = z\frac{\sigma}{\sqrt{n}}[/tex]

In which [tex]\sigma[/tex] is the standard deviation of the population and n is the size of the sample.

The machine is calibrated so that the population standard deviation is 0.04 ounces.

This means that [tex]\sigma = 0.04[/tex]

How many filled cans must be sampled so that we estimate the mean fill volume within 0.015 ounces with 99% confidence?

n cans must be sampled, and n is found when M = 0.015. So

[tex]M = z\frac{\sigma}{\sqrt{n}}[/tex]

[tex]0.015 = 2.575\frac{0.04}{\sqrt{n}}[/tex]

[tex]0.015\sqrt{n} = 2.575*0.04[/tex]

[tex]\sqrt{n} = \frac{2.575*0.04}{0.015}[/tex]

[tex](\sqrt{n})^2 = (\frac{2.575*0.04}{0.015})^2[/tex]

[tex]n = 47.2[/tex]

Rounding up, 48 cans must be sampled.

The bottom of a swimming pool is 10 feet below the surface of the water in the pool. The surface of the water is represented by the number 0, and the bottom of the pool is represented by the number -10. The pool's diving board is the same distance above the surface of the water as the bottom of the pool is below the surface of the water. What integer represents the location of the diving board?

Answers

Answer:

10

Step-by-step explanation:

If the bottom of the swimming pool is 10 feet below 0, that makes it -10. If the diving board is the same distance above the swimming pool, that would make the integar 10. Both integers have a distance of 10ft away from 0.

I hope that helped. :)

The diving board is represented by the integer 10.

What are Integers?

Integers are defined as the collection of Whole Numbers and the negative values of Natural Numbers make up an integer. Fractional numbers are not included in integers. Integers are represented by the symbol Z.

The location of the diving board is the same distance above the surface of the water as the bottom of the pool is below the surface of the water.

Since the surface of the water is represented by the number 0 and the bottom of the pool is represented by the number -10, this means that the diving board must be represented by the number 10, which is the opposite of -10. The diving board is indicated by the integer 10.

Therefore, the diving board is represented by the integer 10.

The lateral area is ...

The width of a casing for a door is normally distributed with a mean of 24 in and a standard deviation of 0.14 in. The width of a door is normally distributed with a mean of 23.87 in and a standard deviation of 0.08 in. Assume independence of the two widths. Find the probability that the width of the casing exceeds the width of the door by more than 0.25 in.

Answers

Answer:

0.2296 = 22.96% probability that the width of the casing exceeds the width of the door by more than 0.25 in.

Step-by-step explanation:

Normal Probability Distribution:

Problems of normal distributions can be solved using the z-score formula.

In a set 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]

The Z-score 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. This p-value is the probability that the value of the measure is smaller than X, that is, the percentile of X. Subtracting 1 by the p-value, we get the probability that the value of the measure is greater than X.

Subtraction of normal variables:

When we subtract normal variables, the mean is the subtraction of the means, while the standard deviation is the square root of the sum of the variances.

The width of a casing for a door is normally distributed with a mean of 24 in and a standard deviation of 0.14 in.

This means that [tex]\mu_{C} = 24, \sigma_{C} = 0.14[/tex]

The width of a door is normally distributed with a mean of 23.87 in and a standard deviation of 0.08 in.

This means that [tex]\mu_{D} = 23.87, \sigma_{D} = 0.08[/tex].

Find the probability that the width of the casing exceeds the width of the door by more than 0.25 in?

This is P(C - D > 0.25).

Distribution C - D:

The mean is:

[tex]\mu = \mu_{C} - \mu_{D} = 24 - 23.87 = 0.13[/tex]

The standard deviation is:

[tex]\sigma = \sqrt{\sigma_{C}^2+\sigma_{D}^2} = \sqrt{0.14^2+0.08^2} = 0.1612[/tex]

Probability:

This probability is 1 subtracted by the pvalue of Z when X = 0.25. So

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

[tex]Z = \frac{0.25 - 0.13}{0.1612}[/tex]

[tex]Z = 0.74[/tex]

[tex]Z = 0.74[/tex] has a pvalue of 0.7704

1 - 0.7704 = 0.2296

0.2296 = 22.96% probability that the width of the casing exceeds the width of the door by more than 0.25 in.

We fail to reject the Null ;

Step-by-step explanation:

Given the data :

117, 156, 89, 72, 116, 125, 101, 100

H0 : μ ≥ 100

H1: μ < 100

From the data: using calculator :

Mean, x = 109.5

Standard deviation, s = 25.33

The test statistic:

(x - μ) ÷ s/Sqrt(n)

(109.5 - 100) ÷ 25.33/sqrt(8)

Test statistic = 1.06

Since, same size is small, we use t test ;

Using the Pvalue calculator :

T at df = 8 - 1 = 7, α = 0.05

Pvalue = 0.161

Pvalue > α

0.161 > 0.05 ; Hence, we fail to reject H0.

B.)

C. I = mean ± Tcritical *s/√n

Tcritical = 2.365 at 95% and df = 7

109.5 ± 2.365(25.3264/√8)

109.5 ± 2.365(8.9542)

(109.5-21.1768 ; 109.5+21.1768)

(88.323, 130.677)

In conclusion true mean is in the confidence interval, so it is consistent.
