Insurance companies are interested in knowing the population percent of drivers who always buckle up before riding in a car. They randomly survey 387 drivers and find that 298 claim to always buckle up. Construct a 84% confidence interval for the population proportion that claim to always buckle up.

Answers

Answer:

The 84% confidence interval for the population proportion that claim to always buckle up is (0.74, 0.80).

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 z-score that has a p-value of [tex]1 - \frac{\alpha}{2}[/tex].

They randomly survey 387 drivers and find that 298 claim to always buckle up.

This means that [tex]n = 387, \pi = \frac{298}{387} = 0.77[/tex]

84% confidence level

So [tex]\alpha = 0.16[/tex], z is the value of Z that has a p-value of [tex]1 - \frac{0.16}{2} = 0.92[/tex], so [tex]Z = 1.405[/tex].

The lower limit of this interval is:

[tex]\pi - z\sqrt{\frac{\pi(1-\pi)}{n}} = 0.77 - 1.405\sqrt{\frac{0.77*0.23}{387}} = 0.74[/tex]

The upper limit of this interval is:

[tex]\pi + z\sqrt{\frac{\pi(1-\pi)}{n}} = 0.77 + 1.405\sqrt{\frac{0.77*0.23}{387}} = 0.8[/tex]

The 84% confidence interval for the population proportion that claim to always buckle up is (0.74, 0.80).

Convert the equation into standard form 25x^2 -9y^2+200x +18y +166=0

Answers

Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:

You'd have to be really familiar with conic sections to know what to do with this. Good thing I am! ; )

Begin by grouping the x terms together and the y terms together, and getting the constant on the other side of the equals sign:

[tex]25x^2+200x-9y^2+18y=-166[/tex]

Now we need to complete the square on the x terms and the y terms. Do this by first factoring out the leading coefficient from each, the 25 from the x's and the 9 from the y's:

[tex]25(x^2+8x)-9(y^2+2y)=-166[/tex]

Now take half the linear term in each set of parenthesis, square it, and add it in to both sides, remembering the multiplier outside (the 25 and the 9). Our x linear term is 8. Half of 8 is 4, and 4 squared is 16, so we add a 16 into the parenthesis with the x's; our y linear term is 2. Half of 2 is 1 and 1 squared is 1, so we add a 1 into the parenthesis with the y's:

[tex]25(x^2+8x+16)-9(y^2+2y+1)=-166+400-9[/tex]

Note the 400 and -9 on the right side now. 25 times 16 is 400; we didn't just add in a 16, we have to multiply the scalar number into it before we know what we REALLY added in. And the -9 comes from multiplying the -9 times 1.

The reason we do this is to get the perfect square binomials on the left that we created while completing the square:

[tex]25(x+4)^2-9(y+1)^2=225[/tex]

Now, finally we will divide both sides by 225 to get this conic into standard form:

[tex]\frac{(x+4)^2}{9} -\frac{(y+1)^2}{25} =1[/tex]

This is a hyperbola with a horizontal transverse axis and a center of (-4, -1). The reason we know it's not an ellipse is because an ellipse will always have a + sign separating the x-squared from the y-squared whereas a hyperbola always has a - sign separating them. And we also know it's not a circle because the values of the leading coefficients weren't the same.

Answers

Answer:

t= 2p+5/p-1

Step-by-step explanation:

The question is not well writen

Assume p = t+5/t-2

We are to make t the subject of the formula

Cross multiply

p(t-2) = t+5

pt - 2p = t+5

pt - t = 2p+5

t(p-1) = 2p+5

t= 2p+5/p-1

Hence the value of t is 2p+5/p-1

The owners of an amusement park selected a random sample of 200 days and recorded the number of park patrons with annual passes who visited the park on each selected day. They computed a 90% confidence interval for the number of patrons with annual passes who visit the park daily. How would you interpret the 90% confidence interval of (35, 51)? a. There is a 90% chance that the population mean number of patrons with annual passes who are in the park on any given day is between 35 and 51. b. The method used to calculate the confidence interval has a 90% chance of producing an interval that captures the population mean number of annual pass holders in the park on any given day. c. Ten percent of the population of annual pass holders visit the park on any given day. d. There is a 90% chance that the sample percentage of park patrons with annual passes is contained in the interval 35 to 51.

Answers

Answer:

b. The method used to calculate the confidence interval has a 90% chance of producing an interval that captures the population mean number of annual pass holders in the park on any given day.

Step-by-step explanation:

The confidence interval calculated from the sample at a particular confidence level, gives a certain percentage of confidence based on the confidence level that the true mean of the population exists within the confidence interval Calculated.

For the scenario above, we can say that there is a 90% chance that the population mean number of annual pass holders in the park on a given day is within the interval (35, 51)

Find the slope on the line?

Answers

Answer:

slope=0

Step-by-step explanation:

Hi there!

We're given a graph with a line and two marked points on the graph: (-1,3) and (3,3)

the formula given for slope calculated from two points is (y2-y1)/(x2-x1), where (x1,y1) and (x2,y2) are points

we have our two points: (-1,3) and (3,3) and we can label them:

x1=-1

y1=3

x2=3

y2=3

now substitute into the formula

note: Remember the formula shows SUBTRACTION, even though we have NEGATIVE numbers. When we simplify, we'll add the numbers.

slope=(3-3)/(3--1)

simplify

slope=0/4

divide

slope=0

A sphere and a cylinder have the same radius and height. The volume of the cylinder is 18 cm

What is the volume of the sphere?

Answers

Answer:

12 cm³

Step-by-step explanation:

the volume of the sphere = 4/3 πr³

the volume of the cylinder (h=2r)= πr².2r

= 2πr³

the volume ratio of S : C =

4/3 πr³ : 2 πr³

= 4/3 : 2

= 4 : 6

= 2 : 3

so, the volume of the Sphere =

2/3 × 18 = 12 cm³

Answer:

Solution given:

radius [r]=height[h]

volume of cylinder=πr²h

18cm³=πr³

again

volume of sphere

=4/3 πr³

=4/3*18=24cm³

the volume of the sphere:24cm³
