A survey was run by a high school student in order to determine what proportion of mortgage-holders in his town expect to own their house within 10 years. He surveyed 35 mortgage holders and found that the proportion of these that did expect to own their house within 10 years is 0.51. The student decides to construct a 95% confidence interval for the population proportion. a)Calculate the margin of error that the high school student will have. Give your answer as a decimal to 2 decimal places. Margin of error

Answers

Answer 1

Answer:

The margin of error is of 0.17.

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]

He surveyed 35 mortgage holders and found that the proportion of these that did expect to own their house within 10 years is 0.51.

This means that [tex]n = 35, \pi = 0.51[/tex]

95% confidence level

So [tex]\alpha = 0.05[/tex], z is the value of Z that has a pvalue of [tex]1 - \frac{0.05}{2} = 0.975[/tex], so [tex]Z = 1.96[/tex].

a)Calculate the margin of error that the high school student will have.

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

[tex]M = 1.96\sqrt{\frac{0.51*0.49}{35}}[/tex]

[tex]M = 0.1656[/tex]

Rounding to 2 decimal places, the margin of error is of 0.17.

put the y= equation into a calculator and then click graph and then after you see the graph , click 2nd and then graph to get the coordinates

Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:

just pick three values (numbers)  into the function and calculate the other unknown

You can pick an X or you can pick a Y, then solve for Y or X respectively.

Record these x,y pairs in the table

once you have at least two points you can graph the function

           y = mx + b     y-intercept form of the line function

                                  m = slope    b is the value of y when x = 0

   y = -5x/2 -5      let x = 0      solve for y

   y = -5(0)/2 -5

   y =    0 - 5

   y = -5

  y = -5x/2 -5                          solve for x            

  y + 5 = -5x/2 - 5 + 5             add 5 to both sides

  y + 5 = - 5x/2

 (y +5 )(-2/5)  = (-5x/2) (-2/5)

 (y +5 )(-2/5)  = x       let y = 0    

(0) +5)(-2/5)  = x

      5(-2/5)  = x

           -2   =  x

I'll let you have the third variable to pick  and solve for the dependent variable.  The dependent variable is just wha it sounds like, it is dependent on which ever independent (the value you randomly pick) variable.

Pick either x or y then solve for y or x

  y = -5x/2 -5              solve for y

  x = (-2/5) (y +5)        solve for x

For a Saturday matinee, adult tickets cost $7.50 and kids under 12 pay only $6.00. If 80 tickets are sold for a total of $525, how many of the tickets were adult tickets and how many were sold to kids under 12?

They sold ___ adult tickets and _____ kids tickets.

Answers

Answer:

They sold 30 adult tickets and 50 kids tickets.

Step-by-step explanation:

This question is solved by a system of equations.

I am going to say that:

x is the number of adult tickets sold

y is the number of kids tickets sold.

80 tickets are sold

This means that [tex]x + y = 80[/tex], or also, [tex]x = 80 - y[/tex]

For a Saturday matinee, adult tickets cost $7.50 and kids under 12 pay only $6.00. Tickets were sold for a total of $525.

This means that:

[tex]7.5x + 6y = 525[/tex]

Since [tex]x = 80 - y[/tex]

[tex]7.5(80 - y) + 6y = 525[/tex]

[tex]600 - 7.5y + 6y = 525[/tex]

[tex]1.5y = 75[/tex]

[tex]y = \frac{75}{1.5} = 50[/tex]

[tex]x = 80 - y = 80 - 50 = 30[/tex]

They sold 30 adult tickets and 50 kids tickets.

How many cubic blocks are needed to fill the fish tank?

Answers

Answer:

[tex]2\frac{2}{3}[/tex] cubic blocks

Step-by-step explanation:

The given parameters are:

[tex]Length = \frac{1}{2}yd[/tex]

[tex]Width = 16yd[/tex]

[tex]Height =\frac{1}{3}yd[/tex]

Required

Number of cubic blocks to fill the tank

To do this, we simply calculate the volume of the tank by:

[tex]Volume = Length * Width * Height[/tex]

This gives:

[tex]Volume = \frac{1}{2} * 16 * \frac{1}{3}[/tex]

[tex]Volume = \frac{16}{6}[/tex]

Simplify

[tex]Volume = \frac{8}{3}[/tex]

You were born, your mother deposited 2000 in an account that pays 5% simple interest. How much would the balance be in your account when you enter college 18 years after?

A. 18000
B. 1800
C. 3800
D. 20000

Answers

Answer:

C

Step-by-step explanation:

the formula for simple interest is given as A=P(1+rt), where A is the final balance, P is the initial principal balance (the amount of money that you start out with), r is the annual interest rate, and t is the time

we know that the mom deposited 2000 into an account when the person was born. This is our initial principal balance (the amount of money started out with)

substitute that value into the formula to get:

A=2000(1+rt)

we also know the rate, which is 5% and the time, which is 18

5%=0.05 (we need it as a decimal)

so substituting the values into the equation:

A=2000(1+0.05*18)

A=2000(1+0.9)

A=2000(1.9)

A=3,800

therefore the answer is C

What are the coordinates of points P′, Q′, and R′ of the image?

P′(−38,−12), Q′(−1,38), R′(−18,−34)
P′(−3,32), Q′(−8,24), R′(−1,−48)
P′(−24,4), Q′(−64,3), R′(−8,−6)
P′(−24,32), Q′(−64,24), R′(−8,−48)

Answers

Answer:

The coordinates of points P', Q' and R' are (-24, 32), (-64, 24) and (-8,-48), respectively.

Step-by-step explanation:

Vectorially speaking, the dilation of a vector with respect to a given point is defined by the following formula:

[tex]P'(x,y) = O(x,y) + r\cdot [P(x,y)-O(x,y)][/tex], [tex]r > 1[/tex] (1)

Where:

[tex]O(x,y)[/tex] - Point of reference.

[tex]P(x,y)[/tex] - Original point.

[tex]P'(x,y)[/tex] - Dilated point.

[tex]r[/tex] - Scale factor.

If we know that [tex]O(x,y) = (0,0)[/tex], [tex]P(x,y) = (-3, 4)[/tex], [tex]Q(x,y) = (-8,3)[/tex], [tex]R(x,y) = (-1,-6)[/tex] and [tex]r = 8[/tex], then the new coordinates of the triangle are, respectively:

[tex]P'(x,y) = (0,0) + 8\cdot [(-3,4)-(0,0)][/tex]

[tex]P'(x,y) = (-24, 32)[/tex]

[tex]Q'(x,y) = (0,0) + 8\cdot [(-8,3)-(0,0)][/tex]

[tex]Q'(x,y) = (-64, 24)[/tex]

[tex]R'(x,y) = (0,0) + 8\cdot [(-1,-6)-(0,0)][/tex]

[tex]R'(x,y) = (-8,-48)[/tex]

The coordinates of points P', Q' and R' are (-24, 32), (-64, 24) and (-8,-48), respectively.

The surface area of any prism is the total area of all its sides and faces. A triangular prism has three rectangular sides and two triangular faces. To find the area of the rectangular sides, use the formula A = lw, where A = area, l = length, and h = height. To find the area of the triangular faces, use the formula A = 1/2bh, where A = area, b = base, and h = height. Once you have the areas of all sides and faces, you simply add them together to get the surface area.

2) Then take 9 and multiply it by the number of sides of a cube (6 sides)

so, do 9 x 6 = 54cm²
