(a) through (c). What sample size should be obtained if he wants to be within 4 percentage points with 96% confidence if he uses an estimate of 48% obtained from a poll? What sample size should be obtained if he wants to be within 4 percentage points with 96% confidence if he does not use any prior estimates? Why are the results from parts (a) and (b) so close?

Answer:

626 and 654

Step-by-step explanation:

Given that a  television sports commentator wants to estimate the proportion of citizens who "follow professional football."

Part I:

p = 0.48

q=1-p = 0.52\\se = \sqrt{\frac{pq}{n} } \\\frac{0.4996}{\sqrt{n} } =

Margin of error =2.045*\frac{0.4996}{\sqrt{n} }626

Sample size should be >626

Part II:

If unknown we take p = 0.5 because maximum std error for this

Here everything would be the same except insted of 0.48 we use 0.5

Margin of error = 2.045*\sqrt{\frac{0.5}{\sqrt{n} } } 654

-------------------------

a and b are too close because 0.46 proportion is close to part b proporti0n 0.5

During your journey, you develop an abscessed tooth and have to visit the dentist. You are prescribed an antibiotic with a dosag
RideAnS [48]

Answer:

I should take 10.44 tablets in a day, approximately 10.5 tablets.

Step-by-step explanation:

In order to solve this problem we need to convert the weight from pounds to kilograms, to do that we need to divide it by 2.205.

w = \frac{128}{2.205}\\w = 58.05 \text{ kg}

Since I need to take 7.5 mg per kg of body weight, then in order to find the dosage we need to multiply the weight in kg by 7.5.

\text{dosage} = 58*7.5 = 435 \text{ mg}

Since I need to take it every six hours and there are 24 hours in a day, we will have to take 4 dosages in a day, therefore we need:

\text{dosage(day)} = 435*6 = 2,610 \text{ mg}

The antibiotic comes in 250 mg in tablets, therefore the number of tablets is:

tablets = \frac{2610}{250} = 10.44

I should take 10.44 tablets in a day, approximately 10.5 tablets.
