b) 0.32, 0.81
c) 046, 091

Answers

Answer 1

Answer:

a) 0.505,0.995

Step-by-step explanation:

In a sample with a number n of people surveyed with a probability of a success of [tex]\pi[/tex], and a confidence level of [tex]1-\alpha[/tex], we have the following confidence interval of proportions.

[tex]\pi \pm z\sqrt{\frac{\pi(1-\pi)}{n}}[/tex]

In which

z is the zscore that has a pvalue of [tex]1 - \frac{\alpha}{2}[/tex].

For this problem, we have that:

[tex]n = 12, \pi = \frac{9}{12} = 0.75[/tex]

95% confidence level

So [tex]\alpha = 0.05[/tex], z is the value of Z that has a pvalue of [tex]1 - \frac{0.05}{2} = 0.975[/tex], so [tex]Z = 1.96[/tex].

The lower limit of this interval is:

[tex]\pi - z\sqrt{\frac{\pi(1-\pi)}{n}} = 0.75 - 1.96\sqrt{\frac{0.75*0.25}{12}} = 0.505[/tex]

The upper limit of this interval is:

[tex]\pi + z\sqrt{\frac{\pi(1-\pi)}{n}} = 0.75 + 1.96\sqrt{\frac{0.75*0.25}{12}} = 0.995[/tex]

So the correct answer is:

a) 0.505,0.995

1 Explain what is meant by the equation lim x → 8 f(x) = 9.

A If |x1 − 8| < |x2 − 8|, then |f(x1) − 9| < |f(x2) − 9|.

B The values of f(x) can be made as close to 8 as we like by taking x  sufficiently close to 9.

C  f(x) = 9 for all values of x.

D If |x1 − 8| < |x2 − 8|, then |f(x1) − 9|≤ |f(x2) − 9|.

E The values of f(x) can be made as close to 9 as we like by taking x sufficiently close to 8.

A Yes, the graph could have a hole at (8, 9) and be defined such that f(8) =6.

B Yes, the graph could have a vertical asymptote at x = 8 and be defined such that f(8) = 6.

C No, if f(8) = 6, then lim x→8 f(x) = 6.

D No, if lim x→8 f(x) = 9, then f(8) = 9.

Answer:

1

   The correct option is  D

2

    The correct option is   A

Step-by-step explanation:

Generally a a limit function  [tex]\lim_{n \to x } f(x) = L[/tex]

Tell us that as n tends toward x the values of  f(x) tends towards L hence for the first question E is the correct option

Now looking at the second question

  Yes it is possible for  lim x → 8 f(x) = 9.  to be true and  f(8) = 6 this is because the graph defined by this limit equation can have a hole the point

(8, 9) and created in such a way that f(8) = 6

Calculus's basic idea of limits in mathematics describes how a function behaves when its input approaches a specific value. No, if f(8) = 6, then lim x → 8 f(x) = 6. The correct option is C.

The statement "lim x → 8 f(x) = 9" means that as x approaches 8, the limit of f(x) is equal to 9. This implies that the function f(x) gets arbitrarily close to 9 as x gets arbitrarily close to 8.

If f(8) = 6, it means that the function f(x) has a specific value of 6 at x = 8. This contradicts the idea that f(x) gets arbitrarily close to 9 as x approaches 8.

Therefore, if f(8) = 6, it is not possible for the statement "lim x → 8 f(x) = 9" to be true.

c.
Vladivostok is fifteen hours behind Bangkok.
d.
Vladivostok is twenty-one hours ahead of Bangkok.

Answers

Answer:

a.

Vladivostok is three hours ahead of Bangkok.

Step-by-step explanation:

Time the train left Bangkok is 1:50am

It traveled for 16 hours 40 minutes.

If the train was to be in Bangkok.

The Time Will be 1+16 hours then 50+40 minutes

Which is 17 hours + 1 hour 30 minutes

Which is 18 hours and 30 minutes

And 18 hours = 6:00 pm

So if it was in Bangkok the time with be 6:30 pm

But in Vladivostok, it was 9:30 pm

It's clear that Vladivostok time is faster by 3 hours

When Easton goes bowling, his scores are normally distributed with a mean of 130
and a standard deviation of 11. What percentage of the games that Easton bowls does
he score higher than 112, to the nearest tenth?

Answers

Answer:

P(X≥112) = 0.9495

The  percentage of the games that Easton bowls does  he score higher than 112 = 94.95%

Step-by-step explanation:

Given mean of the Population = 130

Given standard deviation of the Population = 11

Let X= 112

[tex]Z =\frac{x-mean}{S.D} =\frac{112-130}{11}=-1.636[/tex]

P(X≥112) = P(Z≥ z)

               = 1-P(Z≤z)

               = 1- ( P(Z≤-1.636)

             =  1- (0.5-A(-1.636)

            = 0.5 +A(1.636)

            = 0.5 + 0.4495

P(X≥112) = 0.9495

The  percentage of the games that Easton bowls does

he score higher than 112 = 94.95%

Answers

Answer:

[tex]P(-1.94<X<-1.5)=P(\frac{-1.94-\mu}{\sigma}<\frac{X-\mu}{\sigma}<\frac{-1.5-\mu}{\sigma})=P(\frac{-1.94-0}{1}<Z<\frac{-1.5-0}{1})=P(-1.94<z<-1.5)[/tex]

And we can find this probability with this difference:

[tex]P(-1.94<z<-1.5)=P(z<-1.5)-P(z<-1.94)=0.0668-0.026= 0.0408[/tex]

Step-by-step explanation:

Let X the random variable that represent the temperatures of a population, and for this case we know the distribution for X is given by:

[tex]X \sim N(0,1)[/tex]  

Where [tex]\mu=0[/tex] and [tex]\sigma=1[/tex]

We are interested on this probability

[tex]P(-1.94<X<-1.5)[/tex]

And using the z score formula given by:

[tex]z=\frac{x-\mu}{\sigma}[/tex]

And using this formula we got:

[tex]P(-1.94<X<-1.5)=P(\frac{-1.94-\mu}{\sigma}<\frac{X-\mu}{\sigma}<\frac{-1.5-\mu}{\sigma})=P(\frac{-1.94-0}{1}<Z<\frac{-1.5-0}{1})=P(-1.94<z<-1.5)[/tex]

And we can find this probability with this difference:

he mayor of a town has proposed a plan for the construction of a new community. A political study took a sample of 900 voters in the town and found that 81% of the residents favored construction. Using the data, a political strategist wants to test the claim that the percentage of residents who favor construction is more than 78%. Testing at the 0.02 level, is there enough evidence to support the strategist's claim?

Answers

Answer:

[tex]z=\frac{0.81 -0.78}{\sqrt{\frac{0.78(1-0.78)}{900}}}=2.173[/tex]  

The p value for this case is given by this probability:

[tex]p_v =P(z>2.173)=0.0149[/tex]  

Since the p value is lower than the significance level we have enough evidence to reject the null hypothesis and we can conclude that the true proportion of people who favored te construction is significantly higher than 0.78 or 78%

Step-by-step explanation:

Information given

n=900 represent the random sample taken

[tex]\hat p=0.81[/tex] estimated proportion of residents who favored the construction

[tex]p_o=0.78[/tex] is the value to test

[tex]\alpha=0.02[/tex] represent the significance level

z would represent the statistic

[tex]p_v[/tex] represent the p value

Hypothesis to test

We want to test if the true proportion is more than 0.78 or not.:  

Null hypothesis:[tex]p\leq 0.78[/tex]  

Alternative hypothesis:[tex]p > 0.78[/tex]  

The statistic is given by:

[tex]z=\frac{\hat p -p_o}{\sqrt{\frac{p_o (1-p_o)}{n}}}[/tex] (1)  

Replacing the info we got:

[tex]z=\frac{0.81 -0.78}{\sqrt{\frac{0.78(1-0.78)}{900}}}=2.173[/tex]  

The p value for this case is given by this probability:

[tex]p_v =P(z>2.173)=0.0149[/tex]  

Since the p value is lower than the significance level we have enough evidence to reject the null hypothesis and we can conclude that the true proportion of people who favored te construction is significantly higher than 0.78 or 78%

What is the minimum and maximum whole number side length for △ABC with given side lengths of 9 cm and 11 cm? Please explain why

Answers

Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:

We would assume that triangle ABC is a right angled triangle. This means that we can apply Pythagoras theorem in determining the unknown side length.

For the case of the minimum side length, we would assume that the unknown length, L is one of the shorter legs of the triangle. By applying Pythagoras theorem, it becomes

11² = 9² + L²

L² = 121 - 81 = 40

L = √40 = 6.32

For the case of the maximum side length, we would assume that the unknown length, L is one of the hypotenuse of the triangle. By applying Pythagoras theorem, it becomes

L² = 9² + 11²

L² = 81 + 121 = 202

L = √202 = 14.21

The minimum side length is 6.32 and the maximum side length is 14.21

The sugar company will choose from two companies to transport its sugar to market. the first company charges $6500 to rent trucks plus an additional fee of $150.50 for each Ton of sugar. The second company charges $4995 to Trang trucks plus an additional fee of $225.75 for each Ton of sugar. For what amount of sugar do the two companies charge the same?

Answers

Answer:

20 ton

Step-by-step explanation:

We created a system of two separate equations to answer these questions.

"y" will be the total cost to transport the sugar

"x" will be the amount of sugar transported

Therefore, we have to:

y = 3995 + 225.50 * x

y = 6500 + 100.25 * x

We must establish these equations equal to each other because it asks how much of x is necessary to make the same amount of y, therefore:

3995 + 225.50 * x = 6500 + 100.25 * x

solved we have:

225.50 * x - 100.25 * x  = 6500 - 3995

125.25 * x = 2505

x = 2505 / 125.25

x = 20

which means that when the amount of sugar transported is 20 tons, the price is the same

After​ treatment, the 17 subjects had a mean wake time of 90.3 min and a standard deviation of 21.8 min. Assume that the 17 sample values appear to be from a normally distributed population and construct a 99​% confidence interval estimate of the mean wake time for a population with drug treatments. What does the result suggest about the mean wake time of 100.0 min before the​ treatment? Does the drug appear to be​ effective?

Answers

Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:

Confidence interval is written in the form,

(Sample mean - margin of error, sample mean + margin of error)

The sample mean, x is the point estimate for the population mean.

Margin of error = z × s/√n

Where

s = sample standard deviation = 21.8

n = number of samples = 17

From the information given, the population standard deviation is unknown and the sample size is small, hence, we would use the t distribution to find the z score

In order to use the t distribution, we would determine the degree of freedom, df for the sample.

df = n - 1 = 17 - 1 = 16

Since confidence level = 99% = 0.99, α = 1 - CL = 1 – 0.99 = 0.01

α/2 = 0.01/2 = 0.005

the area to the right of z0.005 is 0.005 and the area to the left of z0.005 is 1 - 0.005 = 0.995

Looking at the t distribution table,

z = 2.921

Margin of error = 2.921 × 21.8/√17

= 15.44

The confidence interval for the mean wake time for a population with drug treatments is

90.3 ± 15.44

The upper limit is 90.3 + 15.44 = 105.74 mins

The lower limit is 90.3 - 15.44 = 74.86 mins

The result suggests that the mean wake time might have really reduced since the values barely fall above 100 minutes as in before treatment with a high degree of confidence. Therefore, the drug is effective.

Educators are testing a new program designed to help children improve their reading skills. The null hypothesis of the test is that the program does not help children improve their reading skills. For the educators, the more consequential error would be that the program does not help children improve their reading skills but the test indicated that it does help.

Which of the following should the researchers do to avoid the more consequential error?

a. Increase the significance level to increase the probability of Type I error.
b. Increase the significance level to decrease the probability of Type I error.
c. Decrease the significance level to increase the probability of Type I error.
d. Decrease the significance level to decrease the probability of Type I error.
e. Decrease the significance level to decrease the standard error.

Answers

Answer:

a

Step-by-step explanation:

increase the significance level to increase the probability of type 1 error

You can use the definition of type I and type II error to find the correct option.

To avoid the more consequential error, the researchers should do:
Option D: Decrease the significance level to decrease the probability of Type I error.

What is Type I and Type II error?

Firstly the whole story starts from hypotheses. The null hypothesis is tried to reject and we try to accept the alternate hypothesis.

The type 1 error occurs if we get false positive conclusion (false positive means we accuse null hypothesis being wrong when it was actually correct).The type 2 error occurs if we get false negative conclusion (false negative means we accept null hypothesis when it was actually false).

The negative is just like the doctor's test getting negative means no disease. Similarly, if we conclude null hypothesis negative means it is accepted. If it is accepted wrongly means the negative test result was false, thus called false negative. This error is called type II error.

How are the type I error and the level of significance of the hypothesis test related?

The probability of committing the type I error is called the significance level of the hypothesis test.

How to find what does researchers should do to avoid more consequential error?

Since in the given context, by using the definitions of the type I error and the type II error, we have

Type I error : False positive : Accepting that the new program does help the children in improving the reading skills when it actually don't.Type II error: False negative: Failing to reject that the program doesn't help the children in improving the reading skills when it actually improves the skill.

More consequential error for educators : For the educators, the more consequential error would be that the program does not help children improve their reading skills but the test indicated that it does help.


Thus, the more consequential error for the educators is committing the type I error.

To prevent committing this error, they need to decrease type I error's probability which is denoted by level of significance, need to decrease the level of significance of the hypothesis test.

Thus,

Option D: Decrease the significance level to decrease the probability of Type I error.
