Answers

Answer 1

Answer:

As 0.17 is below the upper limit of the confidence​ interval, so we can conclude that the population proportion is less than 0.17.

Step-by-step explanation:

We are given that a survey of 270 young professionals found that one dash eighth of them use their cell phones primarily for​ e-mail.

Firstly, the Pivotal quantity for 95% confidence interval for the population proportion is given by;

                            P.Q. =  [tex]\frac{\hat p-p}{\sqrt{\frac{\hat p(1-\hat p)}{n} } }[/tex]  ~ N(0,1)

where, [tex]\hat p[/tex] = sample proportion of people who use their cell phones primarily for​ e-mail =  [tex]\frac{1}{8}[/tex] = 0.125

           n = sample of young professionals = 270

           p = population proportion

Here for constructing 95% confidence interval we have used One-sample z test for proportions.

So, 95% confidence interval for the population proportion, p is ;

P(-1.96 < N(0,1) < 1.96) = 0.95  {As the critical value of z at 2.5% level

                                                   of significance are -1.96 & 1.96}  

P(-1.96 < [tex]\frac{\hat p-p}{\sqrt{\frac{\hat p(1-\hat p)}{n} } }[/tex] < 1.96) = 0.95

P( [tex]-1.96 \times {\sqrt{\frac{\hat p(1-\hat p)}{n} } }[/tex] < [tex]{\hat p-p}[/tex] < [tex]1.96 \times {\sqrt{\frac{\hat p(1-\hat p)}{n} } }[/tex] ) = 0.95

P( [tex]\hat p-1.96 \times {\sqrt{\frac{\hat p(1-\hat p)}{n} } }[/tex] < p < [tex]\hat p+1.96 \times {\sqrt{\frac{\hat p(1-\hat p)}{n} } }[/tex] ) = 0.95

95% confidence interval for p = [[tex]\hat p-1.96 \times {\sqrt{\frac{\hat p(1-\hat p)}{n} } }[/tex] , [tex]\hat p+1.96 \times {\sqrt{\frac{\hat p(1-\hat p)}{n} } }[/tex]]

        = [ [tex]0.125-1.96 \times {\sqrt{\frac{0.125(1-0.125)}{270} } }[/tex] , [tex]0.125+1.96 \times {\sqrt{\frac{0.125(1-0.125)}{270} } }[/tex] ]

        = [0.08 , 0.16]

Therefore, 95% confidence interval for the population proportion who use cell phones primarily for​ e-mail is [0.08 , 0.16].

Since, the above confidence interval have values which is less than 0.17; so we conclude that the population proportion is less than 0.17.

(6 m)^2 + (11 m)^2 = c^2

36 m^2 + 121 m^2 = c^2

c^2 = 157 m^2

c = sqrt(157 m^2)

The Acme Class Ring Company designs and sells two types of rings: the VIP and the SST. They can produce up to 24 rings each day using up to 60 total man-hours of labor. It takes 3 man-hours to make one VIP ring, versus 2 man-hours to make one SST ring. How many of each type of ring should be made daily to maximize the company's profit, if the profit on a VIP ring is $40 and on an SST ring is $35?

Answers

Answer:

The combination that gives the most profit is 12 VIP rings and 12 SST rings (900 $/day).

Step-by-step explanation:

This is a linear programming problem.

The objective function is profit R, which has to be maximized.

[tex]R=40V+35S[/tex]

being V: number of VIP rings produced, and S: number of SST rings produced.

The restrictions are

- Amount of rings (less or equal than 24 a day):

[tex]V+S\leq24[/tex]

- Amount of man-hours (up to 60 man-hours per day):

[tex]3V+2S\leq60[/tex]

- The number of rings of each type is a positive integer:

[tex]V, \;S\geq 0[/tex]

This restrictions can be graphed and then limit the feasible region. The graph is attached.

We get 3 points, in which 2 of the restrictions are saturated. In one of these three points lies the combination of V and S that maximizes profit.

The points and the values for the profit function in that point are:

Point 1: V=0 and S=24.

[tex]R=40V+35S=40\cdot 0+35\cdot 24=0+840\\\\R=840[/tex]

Point 2: V=12 and S=12

[tex]R=40V+35S=40\cdot 12+35\cdot 12=480+420\\\\R=900[/tex]

Point 3: V=20 and S=0

[tex]R=40V+35S=40\cdot 20+35\cdot 0=800+0\\\\R=800[/tex]

The combination that gives the most profit is 12 VIP rings and 12 SST rings (900 $/day).

Consider the polynomial function p(x) = 4x^8- 6x^7+ 3x^3- 10.
What is the end behavior of the graph of p?

Answers

Answer:

As x gets smaller, pointing to negative infinity, the value of p increases, pointing to positive infinity.

As x increases, pointing to positive infinity, the value of p increases, pointing to positive infinity.

Step-by-step explanation:

To find the end behaviour of a function f(x), we calculate these following limits:

[tex]\lim_{x \to +\infty} f(x)[/tex]

And

[tex]\lim_{x \to -\infty} f(x)[/tex]

At negative infinity:

[tex]\lim_{x \to -\infty} (4x^{8} - 6x^{7} + 3x^{3} - 10)[/tex]

When the variable points to infinity, we only consider the term with the highest exponent. So

[tex]\lim_{x \to -\infty} (4x^{8} - 6x^{7} + 3x^{3} - 10) = \lim_{x \to -\infty} 4x^{8} = 4*(-\infty)^{8} = \infty[/tex]

Plus infinity, because the exponent is even.

So as x gets smaller, pointing to negative infinity, the value of p increases, pointing to positive infinity.

At positive infinity:

[tex]\lim_{x \to \infty} (4x^{8} - 6x^{7} + 3x^{3} - 10) = \lim_{x \to \infty} 4x^{8} = 4*(\infty)^{8} = \infty[/tex]

As x increases, pointing to positive infinity, the value of p increases, pointing to positive infinity.

Answer:

A - As x -> infinity, p(x) -> infinity, and as x -> -infinity, p(x) -> infinity.

A 4 1/2 ounce hamburger patty has 25 1/2 grams of protein. Determine the grams of protein per ounce each type of food.
Select from the drop down menus to correctly complete each statement

Answers

Answer:

Option c. 5.7 grams

Option b. 5.3 grams

Step-by-step explanation:

(a) A [tex]4\frac{1}{2}[/tex] ounce hamburger patty has [tex]25\frac{1}{2}[/tex] grams of protein.

first we convert mixed fraction to improper fraction.

Amount of protein a  [tex]\frac{9}{2}[/tex] ounce hamburger patty has = [tex]\frac{51}{2}[/tex] grams

∴  Amount of protein a 1 ounce hamburger patty has = [tex]\frac{\frac{51}{2} }{\frac{9}{2} }[/tex]

= [tex]\frac{51}{2} \times \frac{2}{9}[/tex]

= [tex]\frac{51}{9}[/tex]

= [tex]\frac{17}{3}[/tex] = [tex]5\frac{2}{3}[/tex] = 5.7 grams

(b)  A 6 ounces of fish has 32 grams of protein.

∴ The amount of protein a 1 ounce of fish has = [tex]\frac{32}{6}[/tex]

                                                                            = 5.3 grams

A hamburger patty has approximately 5.7 grams of protein per ounce.

A fish has approximately 5.3 grams of protein per ounce.

Answers

Answer:

0.136m

Step-by-step explanation:

This is because if you draw a diagram, and label all the sides of the triangle (opp, hyp, adj), the adjacent angle is 3m. You can now use the sine rule to find the hypotenuse (length of ladder) by doing: cos 20= 3/h. You divide cos(20) by 3 and you get the answer of 0.13602m.

Aright triangle with an area of X2-4 square units has a leg that measures
2x + 4 units.
Determine the length of the other leg of the triangle.

Answers

Answer:

x - 2

Step-by-step explanation:

First, we know that the area of a triangle can be found using the formula: a = 1/2(bh).

We also know that the area of this triangle can be represented by (x^2-4).

Lastly, we know that one of the legs (let's call it the base) can be represented by (2x+4).

Let's plug in those values to the original formula: x^2 - 4 = 1/2(2x + 4)h

Now, let's solve for h!

We can multiply both sides by 2, then divide each side by (2x + 4) to isolate/solve for h.

[tex]A = \frac{1}{2} (12)(4)[/tex]

[tex]A = (6) (4)[/tex]

[tex]A = 24[/tex]

For triangle BDC, we do this:

Step-by-step explanation:

Because england, scotland and france are european team and they make up 3/5 of all the teams, you multiply 3/5 by 2/5 because the south american teams are brazil and argentina which make up 2/5 of the total teams. So the probability that a european team will play a south american team is 3/5*2/5 which is 6/25

Question 2
What do you think will happen to the experimental probability when you spin the spinner 400 times?


The experimental probability will stay the same.

The experimental probability will get farther from the theoretical probability.

The experimental probability will get closer to the theoretical probability.

Answers

Answer:

a) If the spinner is fair, then each color must have the same probability, this means that the probability for each color is the number of times that the color (in this case blue) is in the spinner divided the total amount of colors in the spinner, then the theoretical probability for each color is:

Pt = 1/5 = 0.20

The experimental probability can be found by dividing the number of times that the spinner landed on a given color (in this case for blue we have 15 times) divided the total number of spins ( 50)

Pe = 15/50 = 0.30

B) As we increment the number of spins, we should see that the experimental probability gets closer to the theoretical probability.
