Answer:

<u>22 counselors</u>

<u></u>

Explanation:

<u>1. Ratio of campers to counselors in june:</u>

number of campers: 325

number of counselors: 26

Ratio = number of campers / number of counselors

Ratio = 325 campers / 26 counselors

<u />

<u>2. Ratio of campers to counselors in july:</u>

number of campers = 325 - 265 + 215 = 275

number of counselors = x (unknown)

Ratio = 275 campers / x

<u />

<u>3. Equivalent ratios:</u>

325 campers / 26 counselors = 275 campers / x

Solve for x:

x = (26counselors/325campers) × 275campers = 22 counselors ← answer

Of 560 samples of seafood purchased from various kinds of food stores in different regions of a country and genetically compared

frutty [35]

Answer:

a) (0.5256,0.5944)

c) Criticism is invalid

Step-by-step explanation:

We are given the following in the question:

Sample size, n = 560

Proportion of mislabeled = 56%

$\hat{p} = 0.56$

a) 90% Confidence interval:

$\hat{p}\pm z_{stat}\sqrt{\dfrac{\hat{p}(1-\hat{p})}{n}}$

$z_{critical}\text{ at}~\alpha_{0.05} = \pm 1.64$

Putting the values, we get:

$0.56\pm 1.64(\sqrt{\dfrac{0.56(1-0.56)}{560}}) = 0.56\pm 0.0344\\\\=(0.5256,0.5944)$

b) Interpretation of confidence interval:

We are 90% confident that the true proportion of all seafood in the country that is mislabeled or misidentified is between 0.5256 and 0.5944 that is 52.56% and 59.44%.

c) Validity of criticism

Conditions for validity:

$np > 10\\n(1-p)>10$

Verification:

$560\times 0.56 = 313.6>10\\560(1-0.56) = 246.4>10$

Both the conditions are satisfied. This, the criticism is invalid.

Osvoldo has a goal of getting at least 30\%30%30, percent of his grams of carbohydrates each day from whole grains. Today, he at

Alchen [17]

Hi there! Osvoldo did not meet his goal.

(In my answering I suppose you mean 30%, 220 grams of carbohydrates and 55 grams of whole grains, if this is incorrect, please let me know)

Today Osvoldo ate 220 grams of carbohydrates.
10 % of 220 is 22 (divide by 10), and therefore 30 % of 220 is 22 * 3 = 66.

If at least 66 grams of Osvoldo's total consumption consisted of whole grains, he would have met his goal. However, he only ate 55 grams of whole grains (which is less than 66), and therefore he did not meet his goal.
