Is rap music more popular among young Indians than among young Asians? A sample survey compared 634 randomly chosen Indians aged

15 to 25 with 567 randomly selected Asians in the same age group. It found that 368 of the Indians and 130 Asians listened to rap music every day. Construct and interpret a 95% confidence interval for the difference between the proportions of black and white young people who listen to rap every day.

Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:

Confidence interval for the difference in the two proportions is written as

Difference in sample proportions ± margin of error

Sample proportion, p = x/n

Where x = number of successes

n = number of samples

For the indians,

x = 368

n1 = 634

p1 = 368/634 = 0.58

For the asians

x = 130

n2 = 567

p2 = 130/567 = 0.23

Margin of error = z√[p1(1 - p1)/n1 + p2(1 - p2)/n2]

To determine the z score, we subtract the confidence level from 100% to get α

α = 1 - 0.95 = 0.05

α/2 = 0.05/2 = 0.025

This is the area in each tail. Since we want the area in the middle, it becomes

1 - 0.025 = 0.975

The z score corresponding to the area on the z table is 1.96. Thus, confidence level of 95% is 1.96

Margin of error = 1.96 × √[0.58(1 - 0.58)/634 + 0.23(1 - 0.23)/567]

= 1.96 × √0.00038422713 + 0.00031234568)

= 0.052

Confidence interval = 0.58 - 0.23 ± 0.052

Confidence interval = 0.35 ± 0.052

A pack of paper costs $3.75 including tax. Mr. Cooper wants to purchase packs of paper for his class and has a $20 budget. Write
STALIN [3.7K]
If a pack of paper costs 3.75 including tax, and there is a $20 budget, then the equation to find out the answer would be 3.75p is greater or equal to $20. So the answer would be B. 3.75 would be multiplied by the tax and then applied up to $20.

Mateus’s bank issued an advertisement saying that 90\%90%90, percent of its customers are satisfied with the bank’s services. Si
densk [106]

Answer:

The probability of getting a sample with 80% satisfied customers or less is 0.0125.

Step-by-step explanation:

We are given that the results of 1000 simulations, each simulating a sample of 80 customers, assuming there are 90 percent satisfied customers.

Let \hat p = <u><em>sample proportion of satisfied customers</em></u>

The z-score probability distribution for the sample proportion is given by;

                                Z  =  \frac{\hat p-p}{\sqrt{\frac{\hat p(1-\hat p)}{n} } }  ~ N(0,1)

where, p = population proportion of satisfied customers = 90%

            n = sample of customers = 80

Now, the probability of getting a sample with 80% satisfied customers or less is given by = P( \hat p \leq 80%)

  P( \hat p \leq 80%) = P( \frac{\hat p-p}{\sqrt{\frac{\hat p(1-\hat p)}{n} } } \leq \frac{0.80-0.90}{\sqrt{\frac{0.80(1-0.80)}{80} } } ) = P(Z \leq -2.24) = 1 - P(Z < 2.24)

                                                                  = 1 - 0.9875 = <u>0.0125</u>

The above probability is calculated by looking at the value of x = 2.24 in the z table which has an area of 0.9875.

ΔABC is an isosceles triangle with AB = BC= 6 units. D and E are the midpoints or AB and BC, respectively. The length of AC is 8
nydimaria [60]
There are two triangles that exist in this problem. First is the given triangle ABC, witch AB = BC = 6 and AC = 8
Next is the smaller triangle formed by connecting points D and E; triangle EAD, with EA = AD = 3 and the length of DE is unknown.
Because these triangles are similar, a simple ratio may be set up in order to calculate DE.
DE / AC = EA / AB
DE = 3/6 * 8
DE = 4 units

The profit earned by a sporting goods outlet is modeled in the graph below, where x is the number of years since the outlet open
LenaWriter [7]

The domain would be x ≥ 0.

This is because the outlet cannot have profit before it was open. Therefore, the growth must be from year 0 to present. If they give a year as starting, you can have an upper limit too, but there is not enough information here to determine that information.

How many nonzero elements are in the matrix below?
yawa3891 [41]

we will find number of non-zero elements on each rows

and then we add them

First row:

we can see that non-zero elements are

2 , 3.1 , 22 , 9

so, number of non-zero elements in first row =4

Second row:

we can see that non-zero elements are

21 , 3.2 , 6

so, number of non-zero elements in first row =3

Third row:

we can see that non-zero elements are

1 , 42 , 8

so, number of non-zero elements in first row =3

Fourth row:

we can see that non-zero elements are

40 ,4 , 6,14

so, number of non-zero elements in first row =4

Fifth row:

we can see that non-zero elements are

10 , 20 , 13 , 5 , 6.3

so, number of non-zero elements in first row =5

now, we can add them

so,

total number of non-zero elements = 4 +3+3+4+5

so,

total number of non-zero elements is 19...........Answer
