Answers

Answer 1

Answer:

a) 0.2588

b) 0.044015

c) 0.12609

Step-by-step explanation:

Using the TI-84 PLUS calculator

The formula for calculating a z-score is is z = (x-μ)/σ,

where x is the raw score

μ is the population mean

σ is the population standard deviation.

From the question, we know that:

μ = 119 inches

standard deviation σ = 17 inches

(a) What proportion of trees are more than 130 inches tall?

x = 130 inches

z = (130-119)/17

= 0.64706

Probabilty value from Z-Table:

P(x<130) = 0.7412

P(x>130) = 1 - P(x<130) = 0.2588

(b) What proportion of trees are less than 90 inches tall?

x = 90 inches

z = (90-119)/17

=-1.70588

Probability value from Z-Table:

P(x<90) = 0.044015

(c) What is the probability that a randomly chosen tree is between 95 and 105 inches tall?

For x = 95

z = (95-119)/17

= -1.41176

Probability value from Z-Table:

P(x = 95) = 0.07901

For x = 105

z = (105 -119)/17

=-0.82353

Probability value from Z-Table:

P(x<105) = 0.2051

The probability that a randomly chosen tree is between 95 and 105 inches tall

P(x = 105) - P(x = 95)

0.2051 - 0.07901

= 0.12609

Which graph represents the inequality y < -1 + 2x?

Answers

Answer:

The graph is attached down

Step-by-step explanation:

The form of the linear inequality is y < b + m x, where

m is the slope of the lineb is the y-intercept, the point of intersection between the line and the y-axis (0, b)The solution of the inequality is the area under the line  

To find which graph represents the inequality y < -1 + 2x

→ Find the y-intercept (the value of y at x = 0)

∴ b = -1

∴ The y-intercept is (0, -1)

From the given graphs we have two graphs that the line intersected the y-axis at (0, -1)

2nd graph in the 1st row

2nd graph in the 2nd row

∵ The sign of inequality is <

∴ The shaded area must be under the line

∴ The 2nd graph in the 1st row is our answer

The graph which represents the inequality y < -1 + 2x is attached down

In 2008 the Better Business Bureau settled 75% of complaints they received (USA Today, March 2, 2009). Suppose you have been hired by the Better Business Bureau to investigate the complaints they received this year involving new car dealers. You plan to select a sample of new car dealer complaints to estimate the proportion of complaints the Better Business Bureau is able to settle. Assume the population proportion of complaints settled for new car dealers is .75, the same as the overall proportion of complaints settled in 2008
a. Suppose you select a sample of 450 complaints involving new car dealers. Show the sampling distribution of .
b. Based upon a sample of 450 complaints, what is the probability that the sample proportion will be within .04 of the population proportion?
c. Suppose you select a sample of 200 complaints involving new car dealers. Show the sampling distribution of .
d. Based upon the smaller sample of only 200 complaints, what is the probability that the sample proportion will be within .04 of the population proportion?
e. As measured by the increase in probability, how much do you gain in precision by taking the larger sample in part (b)?

Answers

Answer:

a) the sampling distribution of the sample proportion is approximately normal with mean 0.75 and standard deviation is 0.0204

b) the probability that the sample proportion will be within 0.04 of the population proportion is 0.95

c) sampling distribution of the sample proportion is approximately normal with mean 0.75 and standard deviation is 0.03061

d) the probability that the sample proportion will be within 0.04 of the population proportion is 0.8088

e) gain in precision is 0.1402.

Step-by-step explanation:

a) Let p represent the

Given that

population proportion of complaints settled for new car dealers p = 0.75.

and n = 450

mean of the sampling distribution of the sample proportion is the population proportion p

i.e  up° = p

mean of the sampling distribution of the sample proportion p° = 0.75

so standard error of the proportion is;

αp° = √(p( 1-p ) / n)

we substitute

αp° = √(0.75 ( 1-0.75 ) / 450)

=√(0.1875 / 450

= √0.0004166

= 0.0204

therefore the sampling distribution of the sample proportion is approximately normal with mean 0.75 and standard deviation is 0.0204

b)

(p° - p) is within 0.04

so lets consider

p ( -0.04 ≤ p° - p ≤ 0.04) = p ( ( -0.04/√(0.75 ( 1-0.75 ) / 450)) ≤ z ≤ ( 0.04/√(0.75 ( 1-0.75 ) / 450))

= p( -0.04/0.0204 ≤ z ≤ 0.04/0.0204)

= p ( -1/96 ≤ z ≤ 1.96 )

= p( z < 1.96 ) - p( z < -1.96 )

now from the S-normal table,

area of the right of z = 1.96 = 0.9750

area of the left of z = - 1.96 = 0.0250

p( -0.04 ≤ p°- p ≤ 0.04)  =  p( z < 1.96 ) - p( z < -1.96 ) = 0.9750 - 0.0250

= 0.95

therefore the probability that the sample proportion will be within 0.04 of the population proportion is 0.95

c)

population proportion of complaints settled for new car dealers p = 0.75.

n = 200

mean of the sampling distribution of the sample proportion p°.

i.e up° = p

mean of the sampling distribution of the sample proportion p° = 0.75

Sampling distribution of the sample proportion p is determined as follows

αp° = √(p( 1-p ) / n)

we substitute

αp° = √(0.75 ( 1-0.75 ) / 200)

=√(0.1875 / 200

= √0.0009375

= 0.03061

therefore sampling distribution of the sample proportion is approximately normal with mean 0.75 and standard deviation is 0.03061

d)

(p° - p) is within 0.04

so lets consider

p ( -0.04 ≤ p° - p ≤ 0.04) = p ( ( -0.04/√(0.75 ( 1-0.75 ) / 200)) ≤ z ≤ ( 0.04/√(0.75 ( 1-0.75 ) / 200))

= p( -0.04/0.03061≤ z ≤ 0.04/0.03061)

= p ( -1.31 ≤ z ≤ 1.31 )

= p( z < 1.31 ) - p( z < -1.31 )

now from the S-normal table,

area of the right of z = 1.31 = 0.9049

area of the left of z = - 1.31 = 0.0951

p( -0.04 ≤ p°- p ≤ 0.04)  =  p( z < 1.31 ) - p( z < -1.31 ) = 0.9049 - 0.0951

= 0.8098

therefore the probability that the sample proportion will be within 0.04 of the population proportion is 0.8088

e)  

From b), the sample proportion is within 0.04 of the population proportion; with the sample of 450 complaints involving new car dealers is 0.95.

sample proportion is within 0.04 of the population proportion; with the sample of 200 complaints involving new car dealers is 0.8098.

measured by the increase in probability, gain in precision occurs by taking the larger sample in part (b)

i.e

Gain in precision will be;

0.9500 − 0.8098

= 0.1402

therefore  gain in precision is 0.1402.

Price per apple

Answers

Answer: 1.99

Step-by-step explanation: It's about time I tell you how this works. So here it says price PER apple. So PER means we divide 7.96/4 to get 1.99. Now you may be like, How do I know that I do 7.96/4? Why not 4/7.96? Well it says PRICE per APPLE. Price being first so we do 7.96 which is the price, divided by 4 which is the apples. Then we just repeat this process if you want to check your work. So 9.95/5, and 11.94/6

Jasmine paid $64.50 for a bracelet, after tax, and the tax rate is 7.5%. What was the original price of the bracelet?

Answers

Answer:

About $59.66

Step-by-step explanation:

To find the amount of tax was paid, multiply 64.50 by 0.075 (because 0.075 = 7.5%). This would be 4.8375, which when rounded is 4.84. You subtract 64.50 by 4.84 to get 59.66, but because I rounded, it is about $59.66.

Answer:

60

Step-by-step explanation:

First, change the percentage to a decimal and write the equivalence of the sales tax amount. Let x be the original cost of the item.

Sales tax amount =x⋅0.075

Next, substitute the value into the equation:

Original Cost + Sales Tax Amount = Total Cost

x+0.075x=64.50

Add like terms.

1.075x=64.50

Divide both sides by 1.075 to isolate the unknown value.

x=$60

How many solutions to the equation: 3x + 5 = 3x - 7​

Add '-3x' to each side of the equation.

5 + 3x + -3x = 7 + 3x + -3x

Combine like terms: 3x + -3x = 0

5 + 0 = 7 + 3x + -3x
