docker41 [41]

Answer:

The 95% confidence interval for the proportion of adolescents who tried smoking for the first time because of exposure to smoking in the movies is (0.37, 0.40).

Step-by-step explanation:

A confidence interval is an interval estimate of the population parameter. The confidence interval has a certain probability of consisting the true value of the parameter.

The (1 - <em>α</em>) % confidence interval for the population proportion (<em>p</em>) is given by:

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

The information provided is:

$n = 6522\\\hat p=0.38\\z_{\alpha/2}=z_{0.05/2}=z_{0.025}=1.96$

*Use a <em>z</em>-table for the critical value.

Construct the 95% confidence interval for the proportion of adolescents who tried smoking for the first time because of exposure to smoking in the movies as follows:

$CI=\hat p\pm z_{\alpha/2}\times \sqrt{\frac{\hat p(1-\hat p)}{n}}\\=0.38\pm 1.96\times \sqrt{\frac{0.38(1-0.38)}{6522}}\\=0.38\pm 0.0118\\=(0.3682, 0.3918)\\\approx (0.37, 0.40)$

Thus, the 95% confidence interval for the proportion of adolescents who tried smoking for the first time because of exposure to smoking in the movies is (0.37, 0.40).

Which sequence could be partially defined by the recursive formula f (n + 1) = f(n) + 2.5 for n ≥ 1?

horrorfan [7]

Option C: –10, –7.5, –5, –2.5, … is the sequence that could be partially defined by the recursive formula $f(n+1)=f(n)+2.5$

Explanation:

The given recursive formula is $f(n+1)=f(n)+2.5$ for $n\geq 1$ and $f(1)=-10$

We need to determine the sequence.

The sequence can be determined by substituting n = 1, 2, 3, 4,....

<u>2nd term of the sequence:</u>

Substituting n = 1 in the formula $f(n+1)=f(n)+2.5$ , we get,

$f(1+1)=f(1)+2.5$

Simplifying, we have,

$f(2)=-10+2.5=-7.5$

Thus, the 2nd term of the sequence is -7.5

<u>3rd term of the sequence:</u>

Substituting n = 2 in the formula $f(n+1)=f(n)+2.5$ , we get,

$f(2+1)=f(2)+2.5$

Simplifying, we have,

$f(3)=-7.5+2.5=-5$

Thus, the 3rd term of the sequence is -5

<u>4th term of the sequence:</u>

Substituting n = 3 in the formula $f(n+1)=f(n)+2.5$ , we get,

$f(3+1)=f(3)+2.5$

Simplifying, we have,

$f(4)=-5+2.5=-2.5$

Thus, the 4th term of the sequence is -2.5

Therefore, the sequence is –10, –7.5, –5, –2.5, …

Hence, Option C is the correct answer.

Which expressions are equivalent to 4^{-2} \cdot 7^{-2}4 −2 ⋅7 −2 4, start superscript, minus, 2, end superscript, dot, 7, start

PolarNik [594]

Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:

Given the expression 4^{-2}•7^{-2}. The following expression are equivalent to given expression on simplification.

Generally from indices, a^-b = 1/a^b. Applying this to the given expression we have:

4^{-2}•7^{-2} = 1/4^2 • 1/7^2

= 1/(4×4) • 1/(7×7)

= 1/16 • 1/49

= 1/(16×49)

= 1/784

Definitions and Data Due Sun 02/03/2019 11:59 pm A researcher is interested in attitudes towards releasing prisoners with Alzhei

horrorfan [7]

Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:

Matching each vocabulary word with its corresponding example:

(1). All Americans = f. Population (a group of items, units or subjects under reference of study e.g. inhabitants of a region, numbers of cars in a city, workers in a factory and so on)

(2). The proportion of all Americans who strongly agree that prisoners with life sentences who have Alzheimer's should be released = c. Parameter ( the number that summarizes some characteristic of a population)

(3). The proportion of the 85 Americans surveyed who strongly agree that prisoners with life sentences who have Alzheimer's should be released = d. Statistic (the sample characteristic corresponding to a population parameter used when a sample is used to make statistical inference about a population)

(4). The answer-Strongly Agree' or 'Agree, or Disagree, or Strongly Disagree = b. Variable (any quality, characteristic, quantity or number that can be counted or measured)

(5). The 85 Americans who participated in the survey = e. Sample (a part or fraction of a population selected on some basis)

(6). The list of answers that the 85 Americans gave = a. Data (the pieces of information collected to be used for the analysis)
