Among a simple random sample of 331 American adults who do not have a four-year college degree and are not currently enrolled in

Hitman42 [59]

Answer:

(1) Therefore, a 90% confidence interval for the proportion of Americans who decide to not go to college because they cannot afford it is [0.4348, 0.5252].

(2) We can be 90% confident that the proportion of Americans who choose not to go to college because they cannot afford it is contained within our confidence interval

(3) A survey should include at least 3002 people if we wanted the margin of error for the 90% confidence level to be about 1.5%.

Step-by-step explanation:

We are given that a simple random sample of 331 American adults who do not have a four-year college degree and are not currently enrolled in school, 48% said they decided not to go to college because they could not afford school.

Firstly, the pivotal quantity for finding the confidence interval for the population proportion is given by;

P.Q. = $\frac{\hat p-p}{\sqrt{\frac{\hat p(1-\hat p)}{n} } }$ ~ N(0,1)

where, $\hat p$ = sample proportion of Americans who decide to not go to college = 48%

n = sample of American adults = 331

p = population proportion of Americans who decide to not go to

college because they cannot afford it

<em>Here for constructing a 90% confidence interval we have used a One-sample z-test for proportions.</em>

<em />

<u>So, 90% confidence interval for the population proportion, p is ;</u>

P(-1.645 < N(0,1) < 1.645) = 0.90 {As the critical value of z at 5% level

of significance are -1.645 & 1.645}

P(-1.645 < $\frac{\hat p-p}{\sqrt{\frac{\hat p(1-\hat p)}{n} } }$ < 1.645) = 0.90

P( $-1.645 \times {\sqrt{\frac{\hat p(1-\hat p)}{n} } }$ < $\hat p-p$ < $1.645 \times {\sqrt{\frac{\hat p(1-\hat p)}{n} } }$ ) = 0.90

P( $\hat p-1.645 \times {\sqrt{\frac{\hat p(1-\hat p)}{n} } }$ < p < $\hat p+1.645 \times {\sqrt{\frac{\hat p(1-\hat p)}{n} } }$ ) = 0.90

<u>90% confidence interval for p</u> = [ $\hat p-1.645 \times {\sqrt{\frac{\hat p(1-\hat p)}{n} } }$ , $\hat p+1.645 \times {\sqrt{\frac{\hat p(1-\hat p)}{n} } }$ ]

= [ $0.48 -1.96 \times {\sqrt{\frac{0.48(1-0.48)}{331} } }$ , $0.48 +1.96 \times {\sqrt{\frac{0.48(1-0.48)}{331} } }$ ]

= [0.4348, 0.5252]

(1) Therefore, a 90% confidence interval for the proportion of Americans who decide to not go to college because they cannot afford it is [0.4348, 0.5252].

(2) The interpretation of the above confidence interval is that we can be 90% confident that the proportion of Americans who choose not to go to college because they cannot afford it is contained within our confidence interval.

3) Now, it is given that we wanted the margin of error for the 90% confidence level to be about 1.5%.

So, the margin of error = $Z_(_\frac{\alpha}{2}_) \times \sqrt{\frac{\hat p(1-\hat p)}{n} }$

$0.015 = 1.645 \times \sqrt{\frac{0.48(1-0.48)}{n} }$

$\sqrt{n} = \frac{1.645 \times \sqrt{0.48 \times 0.52} }{0.015}$

$\sqrt{n}$ = 54.79

n = $54.79^{2}$

n = 3001.88 ≈ 3002

Hence, a survey should include at least 3002 people if we wanted the margin of error for the 90% confidence level to be about 1.5%.

A sample with a sample proportion of 0.4 and which of the following sizes will produce the widest 95% confidence interval when e

Fed [463]

Answer:

C. 50

Step-by-step explanation:

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

$\pi \pm z\sqrt{\frac{\pi(1-\pi)}{n}}$

In which

z is the zscore that has a pvalue of $1 - \frac{\alpha}{2}$ .

The margin of error is:

$M = z\sqrt{\frac{\pi(1-\pi)}{n}}$

The higher the margin of error, the wider an interval is.

As the sample size increases, the margin of error decreases. If we want a widest possible interval, we should select the smallest possible confidence interval.

So the correct answer is:

The right arrow symbol used to show the transition from a point to its image after a transformation is not contained within the

Bumek [7]

Given:

Vertices of triangle ABC are A (1,4), B(3,−2) and C(4,2).

Triangle ABC reflected over the x-axis to get the triangle A'B'C'.

To find:

The coordinates of the image A'B'C'.

Solution:

If a figure reflected over the x-axis, then rule of transformation is

$(x,y)\to (x,-y)$

Now, using this rule, we get

$A(1,4)\to A'(1,-4)$

$B(3,-2)\to B'(3,2)$

$C(4,2)\to C'(4,-2)$

Therefore, the coordinates of the image A'B'C' after a reflection over the x-axis are A'(1,-4), B'(3,2) and C'(4,-2).

A remote control car races straight down the street at 26 miles per hour. Two

Pachacha [2.7K]

Answer:

It will take 4 hours for the second car to catch up with the first car.

Step-by-step explanation:

The first step to solving this problem is determining the difference in speed between the first and second car - you can see that the second car (at 52mph) is twice as fast as the first (26mph) therefore it will take half the time to cover the same distance.

As Car 1 has a 2 hour head start, it will be 52 miles ahead after 2 hours.

In the next 2 hours, Car 1 will travel 52 miles - so 104 in total after 4 hours, and car 2 will travel 104 miles, meaning that it will have caught up after 4 hours.

A)

To calculate distance per minute, divide the miles per hour by 60 (as there's 60 minutes in an hour), so:

Car 1 = 26/60 = 0.43 miles per minute

Car 2 = 52/60 = 0.867 miles per minute

To check your calculation, Car 2 should be exactly twice as far

B) The street, as far as we know, is at least 104 miles

C) See calculation at the top - the first car is 52miles from the start line when the second car starts

D) 2 cars are competing in this race
