What is the purpose of a pilot​ sample?

a. To help clarify how the sampling process will be performed.
b. To provide an idea of what the population standard deviation might be.
c. To save time and money instead of having to carry out a full sampling plan.
d. To provide a better idea of what the population mean will be.

Answers

Answer 1

Answer:

b. To provide an idea of what the population standard deviation might be

Step-by-step explanation:

Pilot sample can be regarded as the

small scale preliminary experiment whereby a smaller size of samples which is smaller compare to expected size is taken population of interest which gives the estimate for the population standard deviation.

The population standard mean is a parameter and it's been calculated from every entity of the population and

can be calculated using below formula

σ =√Σ (xi -μ)^2 /N

Where N= size of the population

σ= population standard mean

μ= population mean

Xi=each sample from the population

Recidivism occurs when a person continues to commit criminal behavior even after having been punished. A prison official wants to estimate the proportion of cases of recidivism. Examining the records of 250 convicts, the official determines that there are 65 cases of recidivism. Construct a 99% confidence interval for the proportion of cases of recidivism.A. (0.331, 0.567)B. (0.188, 0.332)D. (0.289, 0.431)E. (0.069, 0.111)

Answers

Answer:

Option (C)  [0.2574 , 0.2626]

Step-by-step explanation:

Of 250 convicts, there are 65 cases of recidivism.

- Construct a 99% confidence interval for the proportion of cases of recidivism.

This calls for first finding the proportion of cases of recidivism. This will be 65/250  = 0.26

You are 100% confident that the proportion of cases of recidivism is 0.26

You will be 99% confident that the recidivism cases are between:

99% of 0.26  = 0.2574

1% of 0.26  = 0.0026

[0.26 - 0.0026] , [0.26 + 0.0026]  = [0.2574 , 0.2626]

This should be OPTION C, as that option is missing in the list of options.

The population of a certain town is growing at a constant rate. Suppose the population is 1900 initially, and after 4 years the population is 2212. Which of these expresses the rate at which the population is increasing?

Answers

Answer:

The rate of change relates the change in population to the change in time.  The population increased by 2212−1900=312 people over the four-years.  To find the rate of change, divide the change in the number of people by the number of years.

2212−19004=3124

3124/4 =78

So the population increased by 78 people per year.

Because we are told that the population increased, we would expect the slope to be positive.  This positive slope we calculated is therefore reasonable.

Terminating goes to 3

Repeating goes to 4

Rational goes to 1

Irrational goes to  2

Answer:

1. Rational Number

2. Irrational Number

3. Terminating Decimal

4. Repeating Decimal

Step-by-step explanation:

A Rational Number can be written as a ratio of two integers. For example, as a simple fraction. That leaves us for the answer to the second one as irrational. To terminate means to end, so a terminating decimal is a decimal that does not go on forever. Whereas, a repeating decimal continues repeating forever (or indefinitely).

The equation of the line is
y =

Answers

Answer:

y = 3x + 9

Step-by-step explanation:

The perpendicular bisector to the line segment is passing through the midpoint of the line segment. Coordinates of midpoint are ( [tex]\frac{x_{1} +x_{2} }{2}[/tex] , [tex]\frac{y_{1} +y_{2} }{2}[/tex] )

Formula of slope is m = [tex]\frac{y_{2} -y_{1} }{x_{2} -x_{1} }[/tex]

Slopes of perpendicular lines are opposite reciprocals. So, if AB ⊥ CD , then [tex]m_{AB}[/tex] × [tex]m_{CD}[/tex] = - 1

y - [tex]y_{1}[/tex] = m ( x - [tex]x_{1}[/tex] )  

~~~~~~~~~~~

(- 8, 5)

(4, 1)

m = ( 5 - 1) / ( - 8 - 4) = - [tex]\frac{1}{3}[/tex]

Opposite reciprocal to ( - [tex]\frac{1}{3}[/tex] ) is 3

Coordinates of midpoint are ( - 2 , 3 )

y - 3 = 3 ( x + 2 )

y = 3x + 9  

Use the information mZ1 = (3x + 30), m42 = (5x – 10°, and x = 20, and the theorems you have learned to

What is the first thing you do before solving an adding fraction problem
Pls help

Answers

Answer:

The first thing you do is make the denominators equal on both sides.

Step-by-step explanation:

As a example if you have the equation:

[tex]\frac{1}{2}[/tex] + [tex]\frac{2}{5}[/tex] =

you would multiply the denominator by the smallest multiple. I would do 2 * 5= 10

this would make the equation

[tex]\frac{x}{10} + \frac{x}{10} = ...[/tex]

next you have to do the same with the numerator.

so sence you multiplied the [tex]\frac{1}{2}[/tex] by five you will get [tex]\frac{5}{10}[/tex]

same with the other fraction except you multiplied it by two.[tex]\frac{2}{5}[/tex] x 2 = [tex]\frac{4}{10}[/tex]

next you add and simplify if needed

Answer:

3 simple steps

Step-by-step explanation:

1.     Make sure the bottom numbers ( the denominators ) are the same

       IF DIFFERENT find the LCD

2.    Add the top numbers (the numerators )

3.    simplify the fraction if needed

ex:  1/4 +1/4 = 2/4  (bottoms were the same) simplify  1/2

       1/3 + 1/6    LCD of 3 and 6 so make the bottom numbers 6

                         so multiply  1/3 x  2 = 2/6

        now you have 2/6 + 1/6 = 3/6    simplify 1/2
