Answer:
0.0182 = 1.82% probability that the proportion of vegetarians in a sample of 403 Americans would differ from the population proportion by more than 3%.
Step-by-step explanation:
To solve this question, we need to understand the normal probability distribution and the central limit theorem.
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.
Central Limit Theorem
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, the Central Limit Theorem can also be applied, as long as n is at least 30.
For a proportion p in a sample of size n, the sampling distribution of the sample proportion will be approximately normal with mean [tex]\mu = p[/tex] and standard deviation [tex]s = \sqrt{\frac{p(1-p)}{n}}[/tex]
A statistician calculates that 7% of Americans are vegetarians.
This means that [tex]p = 0.07[/tex]
Sample of 403 Americans
This means that [tex]n = 403[/tex]
Mean and standard deviation:
[tex]\mu = p = 0.07[/tex]
[tex]s = \sqrt{\frac{p(1-p)}{n}} = \sqrt{\frac{0.07*0.93}{403}} = 0.0127[/tex]
What is the probability that the proportion of vegetarians in a sample of 403 Americans would differ from the population proportion by more than 3%?
Proportion below 7 - 3 = 4% or above 7 + 3 = 10%. Since the normal distribution is symmetric, these probabilities are equal, which means that we find one of them, and multiply by 2.
Probability the proportion is below 4%
p-value of Z when X = 0.04.
[tex]Z = \frac{X - \mu}{\sigma}[/tex]
By the Central Limit Theorem
[tex]Z = \frac{X - \mu}{s}[/tex]
[tex]Z = \frac{0.04 - 0.07}{0.0127}[/tex]
[tex]Z = -2.36[/tex]
[tex]Z = -2.36[/tex] has a p-value of 0.0091
2*0.0091 = 0.0182
0.0182 = 1.82% probability that the proportion of vegetarians in a sample of 403 Americans would differ from the population proportion by more than 3%.
Based on a sample survey, a company claims that 86% of their customers are satisfied with their products. Out of 1,100 customers, how many would you predict to be satisfied?
Answer:
946 people
Step-by-step explanation:
Find how many you would predict to be satisfied by multiplying 1,100 by 0.86:
1,100(0.86)
= 946
So, you could expect 946 people to be satisfied
uppose that the walking step lengths of adult males are normally distributed with a mean of 2.8 feet and a standard deviation of 0.2 feet. A sample of 76 men’s step lengths is taken. Step 1 of 2 : Find the probability that an individual man’s step length is less than 2.5 feet. Round your answer to 4 decimal places, if necessary.
Answer:
.0668
Step-by-step explanation:
Formula:
z=(x-average)/standard deviation
(2.5-2.8)/.2= -1.5
Go to a ztable and find the value for 1.5 (.9332) and take the compliment of this (we can do this because the normal distribution is symmetrical)
1-.9332= .0668

Answer:
The first equation; x-2y=8
Step-by-step explanation:
Hi there!
We're told that Ty wants to isolate x in one of the equations. To do so in either, he will need to use inverse operations to cancel out values and leave just x remaining on one side of the equation.
In the second equation, he would need to subtract both sides by 6y and then divide both sides by 4 to isolate x. It's a two-step process.
However, in the first equation, he only needs to add 2y to both sides to isolate x.
I hope this helps!
Answer:
using the first equation
cause Being that the first equation has the simplest coefficients (1, -2, for x, and y respectively), it seems logical to use it to develop a definition of one variable in terms of the other

Answer:
52nd percentile
Step-by-step explanation:
The sorted data :
36.0, 37.0, 39.5, 40.0, 40.5, 43.0, 44.0, 45.5, 45.5, 46.5, 48.0, 48.00, 49.0, 50.0, 51.5, 52.5, 53.0, 53.5, 54.0, 57.3, 57.5, 58.0, 58.5, 59.0, 59.5, 60.0, 61.0, 61.0, 61.0, 61.5, 62.0, 62.5, 63.0, 63.0, 63.5, 64.0, 64.0, 64.0, 64.5, 65.0, 66.0, 67.5, 67.5, 68.5, 70.0, 70.5, 71.5, 72.0, 72.5, 72.5, 72.5, 73.5, 74.5, 77.5
The total size of the data = 54
The value 61.0 occurs in position ; 27th, 28th and 29th
Taking the position average :
(27+28+29)/3 = 84/3 = 28th position
This means the percentile score of 61 is :
(Position average / total size) * 100%
(28/54) * 100%
0.5185185 * 100%
= 51.85%
This means that 61 inch length falls in the 52nd percentile
A, B and C are collinear points. B is between A and C. AB=3x+4 BC=4x-1 AC=8x-9 Find AC
Answer:
[tex]AC = 87[/tex]
Step-by-step explanation:
Given
[tex]AB = 3x + 4[/tex]
[tex]BC = 4x -1[/tex]
[tex]AC = 8x - 9[/tex]
Required
The value x
Since A, B and C are collinear, then;
[tex]AC = AB + BC[/tex]
This gives:
[tex]8x - 9 =3x+4+4x-1[/tex]
Collect like terms
[tex]8x - 3x - 4x = 9 + 4-1[/tex]
[tex]x = 12[/tex]
We have:
[tex]AC = 8x - 9[/tex]
[tex]AC = 8*12 - 9[/tex]
[tex]AC = 87[/tex]

The first quartile :
Q1 = 1/4(n+1)th term
n = sample size = 30
Q1 = 1/4(31) = 7.75 = (7th + 8th) / 2 = (32+33) / 2 = 32.5
Q3 = 3/4(n+1)th term
n = sample size = 30
Q3 = 3/4(31) = 23.25 = (23rd + 24th) / 2 = (48+52) / 2 = 50
D2 = 2nd decile
2 * 10% = 20%
20% * n
0.2 * 30 = 6th = 29
D8 = 8th decile
8 * 10% = 80%
80% * 30 = 24th = 52
67th percentile :
0.67 * 30 = 20.1 th
(20th + 21th) / 2

Use the completing the square to solve x^2+6x=12.
Answer:
x= -3 ± [tex]\sqrt{21}[/tex]
Step-by-step explanation:
[tex]x^{2}[/tex]+6x=12
We add 9 [[tex](6/2)^{2}[/tex]] to both sides to complete the square as [tex]x^{2}[/tex]+6x+9 = [tex](x+3)^{2}[/tex].
[tex](x+3)^{2}[/tex]=21
Now we take the square root of both sides:
x+3=±[tex]\sqrt{21}[/tex]
x= -3 ± [tex]\sqrt{21}[/tex]
Answer:
x = -3 ± [tex]\sqrt{21}[/tex]
Step-by-step explanation:
[tex]x^2+6x=12[/tex]
[tex](\frac{b}{2} )^{2}[/tex] = 9
[tex]x^2+6x + 9 =12 + 9[/tex]
[tex](x+3)^{2} =21[/tex]
x + 3 = [tex]\sqrt{21}[/tex]
x = -3 ± [tex]\sqrt{21}[/tex]

A survey found that women's heights are normally distributed with mean 62.3 in. and standard deviation 2.3 in. The survey also found that men's heights are normally distributed with a mean 67.6 in. and standard deviation 2.9. Complete parts a through c below. a. Most of the live characters at an amusement park have height requirements with a minimum of 4 ft 9 in. and a maximum of 6 ft 4 in. Find the percentage of women meeting the height requirement The percentage of women who meet the height requirement is %. (Round to two decimal places as needed.)
Answer:
98.93
Step-by-step explanation:
we're looking for
4 ft 9 <x<6 ft 4
Let's convert this into inches
4 ft 9 = 57 in
6 ft 4= 76
so we're looking for
57<x<76
which is equal to
p(76)-p(57)
let's start by p(76)
(76-62.3)/2.3= 5.946521 which on a ztable is equal to 1
p(57)=
(57-62.3)/2.3= -2.3
which is equal to 1-.9893= .0107
Finally,
1-.0107= .9893 = 98.93%

What is the area of a parallelogram if the length is 4+ x and it's height is x+3
Answer:
[tex]x^{2}[/tex] + 7x + 12
Step-by-step explanation:
The area of a parallelogram is A = bh, where the base is the length.
To solve this, you have to multiply 4 + x and x + 3.
(4 + x)(x + 3)
If you factor this more, it should be equal to:
[tex]x^{2}[/tex] + 3x + 4x + 12.
This simplified is equal to:
[tex]x^{2}[/tex] + 7x + 12.
1 red marble 4 blue marbles 3 green marbles probability of drawing 2 blue marbles
Answer:
3/14
Step-by-step explanation:
Assuming you draw one after the other without replacement, you have a 1/2 chance of drawing blue the first time, and after one is taken out, you have 7 left. In order to draw 2 blues you would have to have a blue the first time, so there would be 3 blue left. Multiplying the 2 probabilities gets 1/2*3/7= 3/14. Double check that though.
A gym at a school is being painted. The four walls and the ceiling are to be painted (but not the floor). The gym measures 100 ft x 65 ft x 25 ft. A 5 gallon can of paint costs $151.99 and covers 1750 ft. How many cans should be purchased? What will it cost to paint two coats for this gym (include HST)?
9514 1404 393
Answer:
17 cans$2,971.40Step-by-step explanation:
We assume ...
the 25' dimension is the wall heightthe HST rate is 15% (the paint is not purchased in Ontario)only full cans of paint can be purchasedThe wall area is the wall height times the perimeter of the room.
wall area = (25')(2(100' +65')) = 8250 ft²
The ceiling area is the product of length and width.
ceiling area = (100')(65') = 6500 ft²
Then the area to be painted with each coat is ...
painted area = wall area + ceiling area = (8250 +6500) ft² = 14750 ft²
Then two coats of paint will require sufficient paint to cover ...
(2 coats)×(14750 ft²/coat) = 29,500 ft²
__
If each can of paint covers 1750 ft², the number of cans required is ...
(29,500 ft²)/(1750 ft²/can) = 16.86 cans
17 cans must be purchased
__
The cost of 17 cans of paint with sales tax will be ...
(17 cans)($151.99/can)(1 +15%) = $2971.40
