Answer:

The answer is 3√5 mi.

The formula is: d = √(3h/2)

Wyatt:

h = 120 ft

d = √(3 * 120/2) = √180 = √(36 * 5) = √36 * √5 = 6√5 mi

Shawn:

h = 270 ft

d = √(3 * 270/2) = √405 = √(81 * 5) = √81 * √5 = 9√5 mi

How much farther can Shawn see to the horizon?

Shawn - Wyatt = 9√5 - 6√5 = 3√5 mi

A sample of 900 college freshmen were randomly selected for a national survey. Among the survey participants, 372 students were
Rufina [12.5K]

Answer:

a) ME=2.58 \sqrt{\frac{0.413(1-0.413)}{900}}=0.0423

b) 0.413 - 2.58 \sqrt{\frac{0.413(1-0.413)}{900}}=0.371

Step-by-step explanation:

1) Data given and notation  

n=900 represent the random sample taken    

X=372 represent the students were pursuing liberal arts degrees

\hat p=\frac{372}{900}=0.413 estimated proportion of students were pursuing liberal arts degrees

\alpha=0.01 represent the significance level

z would represent the statistic (variable of interest)    

p_v represent the p value (variable of interest)    

p= population proportion of students were pursuing liberal arts degrees

2) Solution to the problem

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 99% confidence interval the value of \alpha=1-0.99=0.01 and \alpha/2=0.005, with that value we can find the quantile required for the interval in the normal standard distribution.

z_{\alpha/2}=2.58

The margin of error is given by:

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

If we replace we have:

ME=2.58 \sqrt{\frac{0.413(1-0.413)}{900}}=0.0423

And replacing into the confidence interval formula we got:

0.413 - 2.58 \sqrt{\frac{0.413(1-0.413)}{900}}=0.371

0.413 + 2.58 \sqrt{\frac{0.413(1-0.413)}{900}}=0.455

And the 99% confidence interval would be given (0.371;0.455).

We are confident (99%) that about 37.1% to 45.5% of students were pursuing liberal arts degrees.

olchik [2.2K]

Answer:

The amount of stock for which both brokers would charge the same commission is $2500.

Step-by-step explanation:

i) Let the amount of stock to be traded be worth $x

ii) therefore for both the brokers to charge the same commission we can write

   1% of x  = $25 \RIghtarrow\Rightarrow  0.01 \times x  = 25  \therefore   x = \frac{25}{0.01}  = 2500

The amount of stock for which both brokers would charge the same commission is $2500.
