A random sample of size 100 was taken from a population. A 94% confidence interval to estimate the mean of the population was co

mputed based on the sample data. The confidence interval for the mean is: (107.62, 129.75). What is the z-value that was used in the computation. Round your z-value to 2 decimal places. Select one: A. 1.45 B. 1.55 C. 1.73 D. 1.88 E. 1.96 E-mail fraud (phishing) is becoming an increasing problem for users of the internet.

Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:

1) The z value was determined using a normal distribution table. From the normal distribution table, the corresponding z value for a 94% confidence interval is 1.88

The correct option is D

2) if 70% of all internet users experience e-mail fraud. It means that probability of success, p

p = 70/100 = 0.7

q = 1 - p = 1 - 0.7 = 0.3

n = number of selected users = 50

Mean, u = np = 50×0.7 = 35

Standard deviation, u = √npq = √50×0.7×0.3 = 3.24

x = number of internet users

The formula for normal distribution is expressed as

z = (x - u)/s

We want to determine the probability that no more than 25 were victims of e-mail fraud. It is expressed as

P(x lesser than or equal to 25)

The z value will be

z = (25- 35)/3.24 = - 10/3.24 = -3.09

Looking at the normal distribution table, the corresponding z score is 0.001

P(x lesser than or equal to 25) = 0.001

REASONING An even integer can be represented by the expression $2n$ , where $n$ is any integer. Find three consecutive even inte
san4es73 [151]

Answer:

First Integer = 16

Second Integer = 18

Third integer = 20

Step-by-step explanation:

An even integer is represented by 2n

Where n is any integer

Let :

First Integer = 2n - 2

Second Integer = 2n

Third integer = 2n + 2

The sum of three even consecutive numbers = 2n - 2 + 2n + 2n + 2

= 2n + 2n + 2n - 2 + 2 = 54

= 6n = 54

n = 54/6

n = 9

First Integer = 2n - 2 = 2(9) - 2

= 16

Second Integer = 2n = 2(9)

= 18

Third integer = 2n + 2 = 2(9) + 2

= 20

49, 34, and 48 students are selected from the Sophomore, Junior, and Senior classes with 496, 348, and 481 students respectively
mrs_skeptik [129]

Answer:

Stratified sampling

Step-by-step explanation:

In the question, students are selected from subgroups of Sophomore, Junior, and Senior classes.

We are told that 49, 34, and 48 students are selected from the Sophomore, Junior, and Senior classes with 496, 348, and 481 students respectively.

This means that the sample numbers of 49, 34 and 48 students were selected in proportion to the subgroup sizes of 496, 348, and 481 students respectively.

Thus, due to the fact that subgroups were selected & that sample number of students were also selected in proportion to their respective subgroup sizes, this is therefore a stratified sampling.
