Answer:

D. 2/17

Step-by-step explanation:

Add all of the marbles: 6 blue marbles + 6 black marbles + 3 green marbles + 2 purple marbles = 17 marbles altogether.

Since there are 2 purple marbles out of 17 marbles in the paper sack, the complement to the probability that she will draw a purple marble is 2/17.

Of the 500 sample households in the previous exercise, 7 had three or more large-screen TVs. (a) The percentage of households in
likoan [24]

Answer:

a) The percentage of households in the town with three or more largescreen TVs is estimated as :

The best estimation for the population proportion is :

\hat p=\frac{7}{500}=0.014

And that represent the 1.4%.

b) And the 95% confidence interval would be given (0.00370;0.0243).

And the % would be between 0.37% and 2.43%.

Step-by-step explanation:

Data given and notation  

n=500 represent the random sample taken    

X=7 represent the households with three or more large-screen TVs

\hat p=\frac{7}{500}=0.014 estimated proportion of households with three or more large-screen TVs

\alpha=0.05 represent the significance level (no given, but is assumed)    

z would represent the statistic (variable of interest)    

p= population proportion of households with three or more large-screen TVs

Part a

The percentage of households in the town with three or more largescreen TVs is estimated as :

The best estimation for the population proportion is :

\hat p=\frac{7}{500}=0.014

And that represent the 1.4%.

Part b

Yes is possible. We hav that np>10 and n(1-p)>10 so we have the assumption of normality to find the interval.

The confidence interval would be given by this formula

\hat p \pm z_{\alpha/2} \sqrt{\frac{\hat p(1-\hat p)}{n}}

For the 95% confidence interval the value of \alpha=1-0.95=0.05 and \alpha/2=0.025, with that value we can find the quantile required for the interval in the normal standard distribution.

z_{\alpha/2}=1.96

And replacing into the confidence interval formula we got:

0.014 - 1.96 \sqrt{\frac{0.014(1-0.014)}{500}}=0.00370

0.014 + 1.96 \sqrt{\frac{0.014(1-0.014)}{500}}=0.0243

And the 95% confidence interval would be given (0.00370;0.0243).

And the % would be between 0.37% and 2.43%.

Mila [183]

Jim’s statement is correct for all numbers greater than or equal to 0. It does not work for negative numbers. For example, the floor of –3.5 is –4, where –4 is not equal to –3, the number before the decimal point. Hope this helps!

Thanks!

The function f(x) = 1/2 x + 3/2 is used to complete this table.
Mrac [35]

Answer:

a) f(-1/2)  = -2 is NOT TRUE.

b)  f(0)  =3/2 is  TRUE.

c)   f(1)  = -1 is NOT TRUE.

d)   f(2)  = 1 is NOT TRUE.

e)   f(4)  = 7/2  is  TRUE.

Step-by-step explanation:

Here, the given function is  f(x) = (\frac{1}{2}) x+\frac{3}{2}

Now, checking for each values for the given function:

a) Putting x  = (-1/2):

 f(\frac{-1}{2} ) = (\frac{1}{2})(\frac{-1}{2} ) +\frac{3}{2}   = \frac{-1}{4}  + (\frac{3}{2} )\\\implies f(x) = \frac{-1 + 6}{4}  = (\frac{5}{4} )

and (5/4) ≠  -2

Hence, f(-1/2)  = -2 is NOT TRUE.

b)Putting x  = 0 :

f(0) = (\frac{1}{2})(0 ) +\frac{3}{2} = (\frac{3}{2} )

Hence, f(0)  =3/2 is  TRUE.

c) Putting x  = 1:

f(1 ) = (\frac{1}{2})(1 ) +\frac{3}{2}   = \frac{1}{2}  + (\frac{3}{2} )\\\implies f(x) = \frac{3 + 1}{2}  = (\frac{4}{2} )   = 2\implies 2   \neq -1

Hence, f(1)  = -1 is NOT TRUE.

d)Putting x  = 2:  

f(2 ) = (\frac{1}{2})(2 ) +\frac{3}{2}   = 1+ (\frac{3}{2} )\\\implies f(x) = \frac{2 + 3}{2}  = (\frac{5}{2} )

and (5/2) ≠  1

Hence, f(2)  = 1 is NOT TRUE.

e)Putting x  = 4:

 f(4 ) = (\frac{1}{2})(4 ) +\frac{3}{2}   = 2  + (\frac{3}{2} )\\\implies f(x) = \frac{4 + 3}{2}  = (\frac{7}{2} )

Hence, f(4)  = 7/2  is  TRUE.
