A newspaper conducted a statewide survey concerning a proposal to raise taxes to prevent budget cuts to education. The newspaper took a random sample (assume it is an SRS) of 1200 registered voters and found that 580 would vote to raise taxes. Let p represent the proportion of registered voters in the state that would vote to raise taxes.Reference: Ref 20-4How large a sample n would you need to estimate p with margin of error 0.01 with 90% confidence

Answers

Answer 1

Answer:

A sample of 6758 would be needed.

Step-by-step explanation:

In a sample with a number n of people surveyed with a probability of a success of [tex]\pi[/tex], and a confidence level of [tex]1-\alpha[/tex], we have the following confidence interval of proportions.

[tex]\pi \pm z\sqrt{\frac{\pi(1-\pi)}{n}}[/tex]

In which

z is the zscore that has a pvalue of [tex]1 - \frac{\alpha}{2}[/tex].

The margin of error is:

[tex]M = z\sqrt{\frac{\pi(1-\pi)}{n}}[/tex]

The newspaper took a random sample (assume it is an SRS) of 1200 registered voters and found that 580 would vote to raise taxes.

This means that [tex]\pi = \frac{580}{1200} = 0.4833[/tex]

90% confidence level

So [tex]\alpha = 0.1[/tex], z is the value of Z that has a pvalue of [tex]1 - \frac{0.1}{2} = 0.95[/tex], so [tex]Z = 1.645[/tex].

How large a sample n would you need to estimate p with margin of error 0.01 with 90% confidence?

This is n for which M = 0.01. So

[tex]M = z\sqrt{\frac{\pi(1-\pi)}{n}}[/tex]

[tex]0.01 = 1.645\sqrt{\frac{0.4833*0.5167}{n}}[/tex]

[tex]0.01\sqrt{n} = 1.645\sqrt{0.4833*0.5167}[/tex]

[tex]\sqrt{n} = \frac{1.645\sqrt{0.4833*0.5167}}{0.01}[/tex]

[tex](\sqrt{n})^2 = (\frac{1.645\sqrt{0.4833*0.5167}}{0.01})^2[/tex]

[tex]n = 6757.5[/tex]

Rounding up:

A sample of 6758 would be needed.

what is the perimeter of the triangle?

what is the area or the triangle?​

Answers

Answer:

The perimeter is 27 km

The area is 21 km^2

Step-by-step explanation:

The perimeter of a triangle will just be all of the sides added up.

12 + 9 + 6 = 27 km

The area of a triangle is:

A = 1/2 * base * height

The base is 6 km, and the height is 7 km. Substituting the values in and solving, we get:

A = 1/2 * 6 * 7

A = 3 * 7

A = 21 km^2

Find the 10th term of the geometric sequence show below

Answers

Answer:

-19,6830x^26

Step-by-step explanation:

The nth term of a geometric sequence is expressed as;

Tn -= ar^n-1

a is the first term

is the number of terms

r is the common ratio

Given

a = -10x^8

r = 30x^10/-10x^8 = -3x^2

n = 10

Substitute

a10 =  (-10x^8)(-3x^2)^10-1

a10 =  (-10x^8)(-3x^2)^9

a10 =  -10x^8)(19,683)x^18

a10 = -19,6830x^26

Hence the tenth term is -19,6830x^26

How many miles will light travel in one day if the speed of light is 300,000,000 meters per second.
(1.62 km = 1 mi)

Answers

Answer:

[tex]d=1.61\times 10^{10}\ miles[/tex]

Step-by-step explanation:

Given that,

The speed of light, v = 300,000,000

eWe need to find the distance light travel in 1 day. We know that,

1 day = 86400 seconds

Distance = speed × time

So,

[tex]d=3\times 10^8\times 86400[/tex]

[tex]d=2.592\times 10^{13}\ m[/tex]

or

[tex]d=0.001610\times 10^{13}\\\\d=1.61\times 10^{-3}\times 10^{13}\\\\d=1.61\times 10^{10}\ miles[/tex]

So, the required distance is equal to [tex]1.61\times 10^{10}\ miles[/tex].

What is the approximate circumference of a circle that has a center at (6,2) and passes through the point (20,2)? (Use 3.14 as an approximation for pi)

answers : 126,88,63,44

Answers

Answer:

C = 88

Step-by-step explanation:

So, we know that the circle passes thru the point (20,2), and it's center is (6,2).

The general definition of a circle's radius is the distance from the center to any point on the circle!

Vertically, these points are the same - so if we just subtract 20 from 6 we know the distance between the center and this point on the circle!

[tex]20 - 6 = 14\\r=14[/tex]

Anyhow, we now know that the radius is 14. and the equation for a circle's circumference is as follows:

[tex]r2\pi \\or\\d\pi[/tex]

Insert the values into the equation....

[tex]C = 3.14(14)(2)\\C=87.92[/tex]

87.92 ≈ 88.00
