What sample size is needed to give a margin of error within +-6 in estimating a population mean with 95% confidence, assuming a previous sample had s=20.
Round your answer up to the nearest integer. sample size = _______.

Answers

Answer 1

Answer:

43

Step-by-step explanation:

The formula for Margin of Error =

Margin of Error = z × standard deviation/√n

Margin of Error= ± 6

z = z score of 95% Confidence Interval is 1.96

s = 20

n = sample size

±6 = 1.96 × 20/√n

Cross Multiply

±6 × √n = 1.96 × 20

±6 × √n = 39.2

Divide both sides by ±7

√n = 39.2/±6

√n = 6.5333333333

Square both sides

n = 6.5333333333²

n= 42.684444444

Rounding up to the nearest integer = 43

Answers

Answer:

He lost 29 points

Step-by-step explanation:

He lost 29 points. He lost 5 points for each of the 8 questions so -5 x 8 = -40 points, then add 11 = -29

Answer:

He would end up with 71 points

Step-by-step explanation:

You start with 100 hundred points then you have to multiply 8 times 5 which you get 40 so then you have to  subtract 100 -40 to get 60 then you add the extra 11 points andyou get 71 points

A 95% confidence interval is found to be (30,36). The sample standard
deviation is 9, and the sample size is 36. If you wanted a smaller interval,
what could you do?
A. None of these
B. Decrease the sample size to 30.
C. Increase the sample size to 100.
D. Increase the confidence level to 99.7%.

Answers

Answer:

C

Step-by-step explanation:

A P E X

If you wanted a smaller interval, you could (c)  Increase the sample size to 100

How to determine the true statement?

The confidence interval is given as:

CI = 95%

The sample standard deviation is given as:

σ = 9

The sample size is given as:

n = 36

In a test of hypothesis, the higher the sample size, the smaller the confidence interval.

This means that an increase in the sample size from 36 would decrease the confidence interval

Hence, if you wanted a smaller interval, you could (c)  Increase the sample size to 100

What is the measure of an angle if the measures of its two adjacent supplementary angles add up to 100°?

The answer is not 80 btw

Answers

Answer:  130

Explanation:

Let x be the unknown angle we want to find.

Let y be adjacent and supplementary to x. This means x+y = 180

Let z also be adjacent and supplementary to x. So x+z = 180 also

Subtracting the two equations leads to y-z = 0 and y = z. So effectively we've proven the vertical angle theorem.

Since the supplementary angles to x add to 100, we know that y+z = 100. Plug in y = z and solve for z

y+z = 100

z+z = 100

2z = 100

z = 100/2

z = 50

Therefore,

x+z = 180

x+50 = 180

x = 180-50

x = 130

Answer:

130°

Step-by-step explanation:

Let x be the unknown angle we want to find.

Let y be adjacent and supplementary to x. This means x+y = 180

Let z also be adjacent and supplementary to x. So x+z = 180 also

Subtracting the two equations leads to y-z = 0 and y = z. So effectively we've proven the vertical angle theorem.

Since the supplementary angles to x add to 100, we know that y+z = 100. Plug in y = z and solve for z

y+z = 100

z+z = 100

2z = 100

z = 100/2

z = 50

Therefore,

x+z = 180

x+50 = 180

x = 180-50

x = 130

The following is a set of hypotheses, some information from one or more samples, and a standard error from a randomization distribution. Test H0 : p=0.28 vs Ha : p<0.28 when the sample has n=800, and p^=0.217 with SE=0.01.

Required:
Find the value of the standardized z-test statistic.

Answers

Answer:

Z = -6.3

Step-by-step explanation:

Given that:

[tex]\mathbf{H_o :p= 0.28}[/tex]

[tex]\mathbf{H_o :p < 0.28}[/tex]

Since the alternative hypothesis is less than 0.28, then this is a left-tailed hypothesis.

Sample sixe n = 800

[tex]\hat p[/tex] = 0.217

The standard error [tex]S.E(p) = \sqrt{\dfrac{p(1-p)}{n}}[/tex]

[tex]S.E(p) = \sqrt{\dfrac{0.28(1-0.28)}{800}}[/tex]

[tex]S.E(p) \simeq0.015[/tex]

Since this is a single proportional test, the test statistics can be computed as:

[tex]Z = \dfrac{\hat p - p}{\sqrt{\dfrac{p(1-p)}{n}}}[/tex]

[tex]Z = \dfrac{0.217- 0.28}{0.01}[/tex]

Z = -6.3

Daniel bought a package of 12 water bottles for $6. Write an equation that relates the cost, c, of a package of water bottles to the number of bottles, b, in the package?

Answers

Answer:

c = 2b

Step-by-step explanation:

First, find the cost of one water bottle by dividing the total cost by the number of water bottles:

12/6

= 2

Then, set up an equation.

2b, where b is the number of bottles, represents the cost of the package of water bottles.

Set this equal to c, the cost, to create the equation.

c = 2b is the equation relating the cost to the number of bottles

Marine biologists have been studying the effects of acidification of the oceans on weights of male baluga whales in the Arctic Ocean. One of the studies involves a random sample of 16 baluga whales. The researchers want to create a 95% confidence interval to estimate the true mean weight of male baluga whales. Their data follow a normal distribution. The population standard deviation of weights of male baluga whales is ????=125 kg, and the researchers feel comfortable using this standard deviation for their confidence interval.
Assuming the relevant requirements are met, calculate the margin of error in estimating the true mean weight of male baluga whales in the Artic Ocean.
a. 15.31 kg
b. 51.40 kg
c. 61.25 kg
d. 80.49 kg

Answers

Answer:

c. 61.25 kg

Step-by-step explanation:

The margin of error in estimating the true mean weight of male baluga whales in the Artic Ocean.

a. 15.31 kg

b. 51.40 kg

c. 61.25 kg

d. 80.49 kg

Margin of Error Formula= z × Standard deviation/√n

95% confidence interval = 1.96

Standard deviation = 125kg

n = 16 samples

Margin of error= 1.96 × 125/√16

= 1.96 × 125/4

= 245/4

= 61.25kg

The margin of error in estimating the true mean weight of male baluga whales in the Artic Ocean is 61.25kg

A fair coin is flipped 10 times and the sequence of heads and tails is noted. In how many outcomes are there in at least 3 tails?a. 904 b. 120 c. 176 d. 24 e. 32

Answers

Answer:

P(X ≥ 3) = 0.94538

Step-by-step explanation:

When flipping a coin, probability of getting a tail is p= 0.5.

Number of times flipped; n = 10

Now, this is a binomial probability distribution problem with the formula;

P(X = x) = C(n, r) × p^(x) × (1 - p)^(n - x)

Probability of getting at least 3 tails is;

P(X ≥ 3) = P(3) + P(4) + P(5) + P(6) + P(7) + P(8) + P(9) + P(10)

P(3) = C(10, 3) × 0.5³ × (1 - 0.5)^(10 - 3)

P(3) = 0.1172

P(4) = C(10, 4) × 0.5⁴ × (1 - 0.5)^(10 - 4)

P(4) = 0.2051

From online binomial probability calculator, we have the remaining as;

P(5) = 0.2461

P(6) = 0.2051

P(7) = 0.1172

P(8) = 0.0439

P(9) = 0.0098

P(10) = 0.00098

Thus;

P(X ≥ 3) = 0.1172 + 0.2051 + 0.2461 + 0.2051 + 0.1172 + 0.0439 + 0.0098 + 0.00098

P(X ≥ 3) = 0.94538

Answer:

[tex]B + G \leq 15[/tex]

[tex]6B + 10G \geq 90[/tex]

Step-by-step explanation:

Given

Represent Babysitting with B

Represent Gas Station with G

Total workhours = At most 15

Earnings = At least $90

First, we need to represent the work hours as inequality

B + G  = At most 15

At most 15 means less than or equal to 15.

So, we have:

[tex]B + G \leq 15[/tex]

Next, we represent the earnings as inequality.

6 hours of babysitting is: 6B

10 hours at gas station is: 10G

So:

6B + 10G is at least 90

At least 90 means greater than or equal to 90

So, we have:

[tex]6B + 10G \geq 90[/tex]
