If the area of a garden is 11 square feet what could be the dimensions of the garden

1 answer:

7 0

Assuming that the garden is rectangular in shape, the area of a rectangle is given by length x width.

11 is a prime with factors 1 and 11.

Therefore, if the area of a (rectangular) garden is 11 square feet, then the possible dimension of the garden is 1 feet by 11 feet.

Identify the 17th term of a geometric sequence where a1 = 16 and a5 = 150.06. Round the common ratio and 17th term to the neares

Mashutka [201]

The geometric sequence formula is expressed as an = a1 * r^(n-1) where n is an integer. In this case, upon substitution, 150.06 = 16 * r^(4). extracting r, r is equal to 1.75. Hence the 17th term from the formula is equal to 123802.32.

JulijaS [17]

Answer:

1) n=48

2) n=298

3) n=426

Step-by-step explanation:

Previous concepts

A confidence interval is "a range of values that’s likely to include a population value with a certain degree of confidence. It is often expressed a % whereby a population means lies between an upper and lower interval".

The margin of error is the range of values below and above the sample statistic in a confidence interval.

Normal distribution, is a "probability distribution that is symmetric about the mean, showing that data near the mean are more frequent in occurrence than data far from the mean".

$p$ represent the real population proportion of interest

$\hat p$ represent the estimated proportion for the sample

n is the sample size required (variable of interest)

$z$ represent the critical value for the margin of error

The population proportion have the following distribution

$p \sim N(p,\sqrt{\frac{\hat p(1-\hat p)}{n}})$

Part 1

In order to find the critical value we need to take in count that we are finding the interval for a proportion, so on this case we need to use the z distribution. Since our interval is at 90% of confidence, our significance level would be given by $\alpha=1-0.90=0.10$ and $\alpha/2 =0.05$ . And the critical value would be given by:

$z_{\alpha/2}=-1.64, z_{1-\alpha/2}=1.64$

The margin of error for the proportion interval is given by this formula:

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

And on this case we have that $ME =\pm 0.1$ and we are interested in order to find the value of n, if we solve n from equation (a) we got:

$n=\frac{\hat p (1-\hat p)}{(\frac{ME}{z})^2}$ (b)

We can assume that the estimated proportion is 0.23 for the 25 to 30 group. And replacing into equation (b) the values from part a we got:

$n=\frac{0.23(1-0.23)}{(\frac{0.1}{1.64})^2}=47.63$

And rounded up we have that n=48

Part 2

The margin of error on this case changes to 0.04 so if we use the same formula but changing the value for ME we got:

$n=\frac{0.23(1-0.23)}{(\frac{0.04}{1.64})^2}=297.7$

And rounded up we have that n=298

Part 3

In order to find the critical value we need to take in count that we are finding the interval for a proportion, so on this case we need to use the z distribution. Since our interval is at 95% of confidence, our significance level would be given by $\alpha=1-0.95=0.05$ and $\alpha/2 =0.025$ . And the critical value would be given by:

$z_{\alpha/2}=-1.96, z_{1-\alpha/2}=1.96$

The margin of error for the proportion interval is given by this formula:

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

And on this case we have that $ME =\pm 0.04$ and we are interested in order to find the value of n, if we solve n from equation (a) we got:

$n=\frac{\hat p (1-\hat p)}{(\frac{ME}{z})^2}$ (b)

We can assume that the estimated proportion is 0.23 for the 25 to 30 group. And replacing into equation (b) the values from part a we got:

$n=\frac{0.23(1-0.23)}{(\frac{0.04}{1.96})^2}=425.22$

And rounded up we have that n=426

Sue played four games of golf.

alisha [4.7K]

Answer:

Sue's scores for the four games in ascending order are: 97, 98, 98, 107

Step-by-step explanation:

Her modal score was 98. The mode is found by using the number that appears most often. This means that 98 has to appear at least two times out of the four scores.

Her range was 10. The range is found by taking the highest score and subtracting it from the lowest score. The highest score had to be greater than 98 and the lowest score had to be less than 98 since we know the mode was 98.

Her mean score was 100. This mean is found by adding all the numbers together and then dividing by the total numbers listed. Adding the four scores together and dividing by 4 will equal 100.

Used guess and test:

Highest Number, 98, 98, Lowest Number

107 - 97 = 10 (meets range requirement)

97 + 98 + 98 + 107 = 400

400/4 = 100 (meets the mean requirement)
