The Student Monitor surveys 1200 undergraduates from 100 colleges semiannually to understand trends among college students. Recently, the Student Monitor reported that the average amount of time spent per week on the Internet was 19.0 hours. You suspect that this amount is far too small for your campus and plan a survey. You feel that a reasonable estimate of the standard deviation is 10.0 hours. What sample size is needed so that the expected margin of error of your estimate is not larger than one hour for 95% confidence

Answers

Answer 1

Answer:

A sample size of 385 is needed.

Step-by-step explanation:

We have that to find our [tex]\alpha[/tex] level, that is the subtraction of 1 by the confidence interval divided by 2. So:

[tex]\alpha = \frac{1 - 0.95}{2} = 0.025[/tex]

Now, we have to find z in the Ztable as such z has a pvalue of [tex]1 - \alpha[/tex].

That is z with a pvalue of [tex]1 - 0.025 = 0.975[/tex], so Z = 1.96.

Now, find the margin of error M as such

[tex]M = z\frac{\sigma}{\sqrt{n}}[/tex]

In which [tex]\sigma[/tex] is the standard deviation of the population and n is the size of the sample.

You feel that a reasonable estimate of the standard deviation is 10.0 hours.

This means that [tex]\sigma = 10[/tex]

What sample size is needed so that the expected margin of error of your estimate is not larger than one hour for 95% confidence?

A sample size of n is needed. n is found when M = 1. So

[tex]M = z\frac{\sigma}{\sqrt{n}}[/tex]

[tex]1 = 1.96\frac{10}{\sqrt{n}}[/tex]

[tex]\sqrt{n} = 1.96*10[/tex]

[tex](\sqrt{n})^2 = (1.96*10)^2[/tex]

[tex]n = 384.16[/tex]

Rounding up:

A sample size of 385 is needed.

It takes 3 hour 15 minutes to fly from city a to city b at constant speed. Find how long the journey takes if
A) the speed is 1×1÷2 times of the original speed and
B) if the speed is three-quarters of the original speed.

Answers

Answer:

a) t= 2hours and 10 minutes

b) t=4hours and 20 minutes

v1t1=v2t2

Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:

rate = distance / time     distance is constant (a-b) so call it D

time = distance / rate      rate = speed (ie miles per hour = mph)

time = distance / speed      

A)  if the new speed is 1.5 of the original speed    

     original time = 3.25 hours  or 195 minutes

  3.25  = D / 1       new time = D/1.5       find new time

         3.25 is to D   as    new time is to  D/1.5

            3.25/D = new time / D/1.5                   multiple D/1.5 on both sides

            (3.25/D) ( D/1.5)      = new time           the distance D cancels

            3.25 (D / D) / 1.5   = new time

            3.25 / 1.5  = 2.167 hours   or 2 hours and 10 minutes

B)   if the speed is 3/4 the original speed

original time = 3.25 hours  or 195 minutes

  3.25  = D / 1       new time = D/(3/4)       find new time

         3.25 is to D   as    new time is to  D/0.75

            3.25/D = new time / D/0.75                       multiple D/0.75 on both sides

            (3.25/D) ( D/0.75)      = new time

            3.25 (D / D) / 0.75     = new time

            3.25 / 0.75  = 4.333 hours   or 4 hours and 20 minutes

Answers

Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:

Let the depreciation rate is x per year, then we have:

28000*x² = 22000x² = 22000/28000x² = 0.7857x = √0.7857 x = 0.8864

Exponential function for this case is:

V(t) = 28000*0.8864^t, where V(t) - future value, t- number of years

Value of the car after 3 years:

V(3) = 28000*0.8864^3 V(3) = 19500

Rosa wants to buy a new TV priced at 499.99 The TV is on sale for 15% off but the cashier informs her that if she applies for a store credit card she can have an additional 10% off. How much will Rosa pay after the discounts and 6% tax have been applied? Write and solve an equation to find the final price.

PLEASE ANSWER AS SOON AS POSSIBLE

Answers

Answer:

$405,44

Step-by-step explanation:

First of all we have to find how much the tv cost after 15% of discount.

we can use this proportion

15 : 100 = x : 499.99

x = (15*499.99)/100 = $74.9985

then we have to subtract the initial value to the value of the discount

499.99-74.9985 = $424,9915

thanks to the card we can apply another 10%

10 : 100 = x : 424,9915

x = (424,9915 *10)/100 = $42,49915

424,9915-42,49915 = $382,49235

now we have to apply taxes

6:100 = x : 382,49235

x = $22,949541

382,49235 + 22,949541 = $405,441891

that can be rewrite as $405,44

If we want to write an equation to solve this problem we can use this

499.99 - (499.99 * 15/100) - 1/10[499.99-(499.99*15/100)] + 6/100{1/10[499.99-(499.99*15/100) = x
