Answer:
a. With 90% confidence the proportion of all Americans who favor the new Green initiative is between 0.6290 and 0.6948.
b. If the sample size is changed, the confidence interval changes as the standard error depends on sample size.
About 90% percent of these confidence intervals will contain the true population proportion of Americans who favor the Green initiative and about 10% percent will not contain the true population proportion.
Step-by-step explanation:
We have to calculate a 90% confidence interval for the proportion.
The sample proportion is p=0.6619.
[tex]p=X/n=370/559=0.6619[/tex]
The standard error of the proportion is:
[tex]\sigma_p=\sqrt{\dfrac{p(1-p)}{n}}=\sqrt{\dfrac{0.6619*0.3381}{559}}\\\\\\ \sigma_p=\sqrt{0.0004}=0.02[/tex]
The critical z-value for a 90% confidence interval is z=1.6449.
The margin of error (MOE) can be calculated as:
[tex]MOE=z\cdot \sigma_p=1.6449 \cdot 0.02=0.0329[/tex]
Then, the lower and upper bounds of the confidence interval are:
[tex]LL=p-z \cdot \sigma_p = 0.6619-0.0329=0.6290\\\\UL=p+z \cdot \sigma_p = 0.6619+0.0329=0.6948[/tex]
The 90% confidence interval for the population proportion is (0.6290, 0.6948).
Find the critical value z Subscript alpha divided by 2 that corresponds to the given confidence level. 80%
Answer:
[tex] Conf= 0.80[/tex]
With the confidence level we can find the significance level:
[tex]\alpha =1-0.8=0.2[/tex]
And the value for [tex]\alpha/2=0.1[/tex]. Then we can use the normal standard distribution and we can find a quantile who accumulates 0.1 of the area on each tail and we got:
[tex] z_{\alpha/2}= \pm 1.28[/tex]
Step-by-step explanation:
For this problem we have the confidence level given
[tex] Conf= 0.80[/tex]
With the confidence level we can find the significance level:
[tex]\alpha =1-0.8=0.2[/tex]
And the value for [tex]\alpha/2=0.1[/tex]. Then we can use the normal standard distribution and we can find a quantile who accumulates 0.1 of the area on each tail and we got:
[tex] z_{\alpha/2}= \pm 1.28[/tex]
The route used by a certain motorist in commuting to work contains two intersections with traffic signals. The probability that he must stop at the first signal is 0.36, the analogous probability for the second signal is 0.51, and the probability that he must stop at least one of the two signals is 0.67.What is theprobability that he must stop.
a) At both signals?
b) At the first signal but not at the second one?
c) At exactly on signal?
Answer:
a) P(X∩Y) = 0.2
b) [tex]P_1[/tex] = 0.16
c) P = 0.47
Step-by-step explanation:
Let's call X the event that the motorist must stop at the first signal and Y the event that the motorist must stop at the second signal.
So, P(X) = 0.36, P(Y) = 0.51 and P(X∪Y) = 0.67
Then, the probability P(X∩Y) that the motorist must stop at both signal can be calculated as:
P(X∩Y) = P(X) + P(Y) - P(X∪Y)
P(X∩Y) = 0.36 + 0.51 - 0.67
P(X∩Y) = 0.2
On the other hand, the probability [tex]P_1[/tex] that he must stop at the first signal but not at the second one can be calculated as:
[tex]P_1[/tex] = P(X) - P(X∩Y)
[tex]P_1[/tex] = 0.36 - 0.2 = 0.16
At the same way, the probability [tex]P_2[/tex] that he must stop at the second signal but not at the first one can be calculated as:
[tex]P_2[/tex] = P(Y) - P(X∩Y)
[tex]P_2[/tex] = 0.51 - 0.2 = 0.31
So, the probability that he must stop at exactly one signal is:
[tex]P = P_1+P_2\\P=0.16+0.31\\P=0.47[/tex]

Show all work to solve 3x^2 – 5x – 2 = 0.
Answer:
Step-by-step explanation:
3x2−5x−2=0
For this equation: a=3, b=-5, c=-2
3x2+−5x+−2=0
Step 1: Use quadratic formula with a=3, b=-5, c=-2.
x= (−b±√b2−4ac )2a
x= (−(−5)±√(−5)2−4(3)(−2) )/2(3)
x= (5±√49 )/6
x=2 or x= −1 /3
Answer:
x=2 or x= −1/ 3
The solutions to the equation are x = -1/3 and x = 2.
Here are the steps on how to solve [tex]3x^{2}[/tex] – 5x – 2 = 0:
First, we need to factor the polynomial. The factors of 3 are 1, 3, and the factors of -2 are -1, 2. The coefficient on the x term is -5, so we need to find two numbers that add up to -5 and multiply to -2. The two numbers -1 and 2 satisfy both conditions, so the factored polynomial is (3x + 1)(x - 2).
Next, we set each factor equal to 0 and solve for x.
(3x + 1)(x - 2) = 0
3x + 1 = 0
3x = -1
x = -1/3
x - 2 = 0
x = 2
Therefore, the solutions to the equation [tex]3x^{2}[/tex] – 5x – 2 = 0 are x = -1/3 and x = 2.
Here is the explanation for each of the steps:
Step 1: In order to factor the polynomial, we need to find two numbers that add up to -5 and multiply to -2. The two numbers -1 and 2 satisfy both conditions, so the factored polynomial is (3x + 1)(x - 2).
Step 2: We set each factor equal to 0 and solve for x. When we set 3x + 1 equal to 0, we get x = -1/3. When we set x - 2 equal to 0, we get x = 2. Therefore, the solutions to the equation are x = -1/3 and x = 2.

Answer:
33 units²
Step-by-step explanation:
A (graphing) calculator shows you that f(4) ≈ 8, and f(8) ≈ 8.5. The curve is almost a straight line between, so the area is approximately ...
A = (1/2)(8 + 8.5)(4) = 33

In triangle ABC, the right angle is at vertex C, a = 714 cm and the measure of angle A is 78° . To the nearest cm, what is the length of side c?
Answer:
c = 730cm
Step-by-step explanation:
The first thing we would do is to draw the diagram using th given information.
Find attached the diagram.
a = 714 cm
the measure of angle A = 78°
To determine c, we would apply sine rule. This is because we know the opposite and we are to determine the hypotenuse
sin78 = opposite/hypotenuse
sin 78 = 714/c
c = 714/sin 78 = 714/0.9781
c= 729.99
c≅ 730 cm ( nearest cm)
Which of the following points is NOT a solution of the inequality y ≥ Ixl + 3?

B. (-3, 6)
C. (0, 4)
Hey there!
To solve this, we need to plug each of our answer options into the inequality and see if it is true. Which ever one doesn't make the inequality true when plugged in is the answer.
OPTION A
(x,y)=(-3,0)
We plug our values into the inequality.
0≥ I-3I+3
You may have noticed the bars surrounding the negative three.. If you didn't know, this is called absolute value. Absolute value is how far the number is from 0 on the number line. -7 is 7 away from 0 on a number line, so the absolute value of -7 is 7. The absolute value of 7 is 7. The absolute value of 0 is 0. Absolute value is signified by these bars. Le'ts finish evaluating.
0≥6
As you can see, zero is not greater than or equal to six. So, option A is false.
Since A is not a solution, we already know that that is the answer, so we don't even need to check B and C. But, we can still evaluate them if you want.
OPTION B
6≥I-3I+3
6≥6
This is true.
OPTION C
4≥I0I+3
4≥3
This is also true.
Therefore, the answer is A. (-3,0)

Answer:
undefined
Step-by-step explanation:
Using the slope formula
m = (y2-y1)/ (x2-x1)
and the given points
m = ( 8 - -1)/( 2-2)
= (8+1) / 0
We cannot divide by 0 so the slope is undefined

Which sentence in this excerpt from Common Sense by Thomas Paine supports the claim that the American colonies could thrive independently from Britain? I have heard it asserted by some, that as America hath flourished under her former connection with Great Britain that the same connection is necessary towards her future happiness, and will always have the same effect. Nothing can be more fallacious than this kind of argument. We may as well assert that because a child has thrived upon milk that it is never to have meat, or that the first twenty years of our lives is to become a precedent for the next twenty. But even this is admitting more than is true, for I answer roundly, that America would have flourished as much, and probably much more, had no European power had any thing to do with her. The commerce, by which she hath enriched herself, are the necessaries of life, and will always have a market while eating is the custom of Europe.

Find the least number which is exactly divisible by 72 and 108
Step-by-step explanation:
2 is the answer because:
72/2=36
108/2=54
Answer:
2
Step-by-step explanation:
Well divisible means the lowest numbers it can be divided by.
So we can make a chart.
72 - 1, 2, 3, 4, 6, 8, 9, 12, 18, 24, 36, 72
108 - 1, 2, 3, 4, 6, 9, 12, 18, 27, 36, 54, 108
So besides 1, 2 is the lowest divisible number between 108 and 72.

Step-by-step explanation:
According to a recent study, some experts believe that 15% of all freshwater fish in a particular country have such high levels of mercury that they are dangerous to eat. Suppose a fish market has 150 fish we consider randomly sampled from the population of edible freshwater fish. Use the Central Limit Theorem (and the Empirical Rule) to find the approximate probability that the market will have a proportion of fish with dangerously high levels of mercury that is more than two standard errors above 0.15. You can use the Central Limit Theorem because the fish were randomly sampled; the population is more than 10 times 150; and n times p is 22.5, and n times (1 minus p) is 127.5, and both are more than 10.
Answer:
The approximate probability that the market will have a proportion of fish with dangerously high levels of mercury that is more than two standard errors above 0.15 is 0.95.
Step-by-step explanation:
According to the Central limit theorem, if from an unknown population large samples of sizes n > 30, are selected and the sample proportion for each sample is computed then the sampling distribution of sample proportion follows a Normal distribution.
The mean of this sampling distribution of sample proportion is:
[tex]\mu_{\hat p}=0.15[/tex]
The standard deviation of this sampling distribution of sample proportion is:
[tex]\sigma_{\hat p}=\sqrt{\frac{p(1-p)}{n}}[/tex]
As the sample size is large, i.e. n = 150 > 30, the central limit theorem can be used to approximate the sampling distribution of sample proportion by the normal distribution.
Compute the mean and standard deviation as follows:
[tex]\mu_{\hat p}=0.15\\\\\sigma_{\hat p}=\sqrt{\frac{p(1-p)}{n}}=\sqrt{\frac{0.15(1-0.15)}{150}}=0.0292[/tex]
So, [tex]\hat p\sim N(0.15, 0.0292^{2})[/tex]
In statistics, the 68–95–99.7 rule, also recognized as the empirical rule, is a shortcut used to recall that 68%, 95% and 99.7% of the Normal distribution lie within one, two and three standard deviations of the mean, respectively.
Then,
P (µ-σ < X < µ+σ) ≈ 0.68
P (µ-2σ <X < µ+2σ) ≈ 0.95
P (µ-3σ <X < µ+3σ) ≈ 0.997
Then the approximate probability that the market will have a proportion of fish with dangerously high levels of mercury that is more than two standard errors above 0.15 is 0.95.
That is:
[tex]P(\mu_{\hat p}-2\sigma_{\hat p}<\hat p<\mu_{\hat p}+2\sigma_{\hat p})=0.95\\\\P(0.15-2\cdot0.0292<\hat p<0.15+2\cdot0.0292)=0.95\\\\P(0.092<\hat p<0.208)=0.95[/tex]

Approximately, what was the rate of change for the number of the websites for this time period??
=============================================================
How I got that answer:
We have gone from 54 websites to 793 websites. This is a change of 793-54 = 739 new websites. This is over a timespan of 2004-1995 = 9 years.
Since we have 739 new websites over the course of 9 years, this means the rate of change is 739/9 = 82.1111... where the '1's go on forever. Rounding to the nearest whole number gets us roughly 82 websites a year.
----------
You could use the slope formula to get the job done. This is because the slope represents the rise over run
slope = rise/run
The rise is how much the number of websites have gone up or down. The run is the amount of time that has passed by. So slope = rise/run = 739/9 = 82.111...
In a more written out way, the steps would be
slope = rise/run
slope = (y2-y1)/(x2-x1)
slope = (793 - 54)/(2004 - 1995)
slope = 739/9
slope = 82.111....

A music concert is organized at a memorial auditorium. The first row of the auditorium has 16 seats, the second row has 24 seats, the third row has 32 seats, and so on, increasing by 8 seats each row for a total of 50 rows. Find the number of people that can be accommodated in the sixteenth row. (Show work)
Answer: 136
Step-by-step explanation:
An= A1+(n-1)d
A1=16, d=8, and n=16
A16= 16 +(16-1)(8)
A16= 16(15)(8)
A16= 16+120
A16=136
Hey there! :)
Answer:
f(16) = 136 seats.
Step-by-step explanation:
This situation can be expressed as an explicit function where 'n' is the row number.
The question also states that the number of seats increases by 8. Use this in the equation:
f(n) = 16 + 8(n-1)
Solve for the number of seats in the 16th row by plugging in 16 for n:
f(16) = 16 + 8(16-1)
f(16) = 16 + 8(15)
f(16) = 16 + 120
f(16) = 136 seats.
