In a recent survey of gun control laws, a random sample of 1000 women showed that 65% were in favor of stricter gun control laws. In a random sample of 1000 men, 60% favored stricter gun control laws. Construct a 95% confidence interval for p1 − p2.

Answers

Answer 1

Answer:

[tex]CI\approx\{0.0076,0.0924\}[/tex]

Step-by-step explanation:

The formula for a z-confidence interval for a difference of proportions is [tex]\displaystyle CI=(\hat{p}_1-\hat{p}_2)\pm z^*\sqrt{\frac{\hat{p}_1(1-\hat{p}_1)}{n_1}+\frac{\hat{p}_2(1-\hat{p}_2)}{n_2}}[/tex]:

Let [tex]\hat{p}_1=0.65[/tex] to represent the sample proportion of [tex]n_1=1000[/tex] women who are in favor of stricter gun control laws and let [tex]\hat{p}_2=0.60[/tex] to represent the sample proportion of [tex]n_2=1000[/tex] men who are in favor of stricter gun control laws.

A 95% confidence level corresponds to a critical value of [tex]z^*=1.96[/tex], so now we perform the necessary calculations assuming conditions are met:

[tex]\displaystyle CI=(0.65-0.60)\pm 1.96\sqrt{\frac{0.65(1-0.65)}{1000}+\frac{0.60(1-0.60)}{1000}}\approx\{0.0076,0.0924\}[/tex]

Hence, we are 95% confident that the true difference in the proportion of women and men who favor stricter gun control laws is between 0.0076 and 0.0924

Since the interval does not contain "0" and only contain values greater than "0", it is more likely that the proportion of women who were in favor of stricter gun control laws is higher than the proportion of men who were in favor of stricter gun control laws.

b) the sum of the second and third terms of a geometric progression is six times the fourth term, find the two possible values of common ratio
i) If the seconds term is 8 and the common ration is positive, find the first six terms. 10mrks​

Answers

Answer:

Below in bold

Step-by-step explanation:

The sequence is:

3, x, y, 18

If this is an A P then

x - 3 = y - x  

2x - y = 3      (A)  and

y - x = 18 - y

2y - x = 18      (B)

Multiply  (A) by 2:

4x - 2y = 6    (C)

Adding B and C:

3x = 24

x = 8.

and

2y - 8 = 18

2y = 26

y = 13.

So x = 8 and y = 13.

b)   ar + ar^2 = 6ar^3  where a = first term and r = common ratio

Divide by a:

r + r^2 = 6r^3

6r^3 - r^2 - r = 0

r(6r^2 - r - 1) = 0

r(3r  + 1)(2r  - 1) = 0

So the 2 possible values of r

= -1/3 and 1/2.

i) The common ratio is positive so it must be 1/2.

Second term ar = 8

1/2 a = 8

a = 16.

So the first 6 terms are:

16, 8, 4, 2, 1, 1/2.

A children’s news and talk show is broadcasted for 2 hours each weekday. On Saturdays and Sundays, the show is an hour longer than during the week. How many hours is this show broadcasted each week?​

Answers

Answer: 16 hours each week.

Explanation:

On weekdays, the show is two hours long. There are five weekdays, so 2 x 5 = 10. A total of 10 hours is broadcasted on weekdays. Then, because the show is an hour longer on Saturdays and Sundays, we can do 10 + 3 + 3, where each 3 would represent a Saturday and a Sunday. 10 + 3 + 3 = 16, so a total of 16 hours of the show is broadcasted weekly.

Given that A = {1, 2, 3, 4, 5, 6] maps respectively to B = {3, 4, 5, 6, 7, 8). Find an injective function f(x) such that f: A → B. Hint: Can you depict any relationship between sets A and B?​

Answers

Answer: f(x) = x + 2

Step-by-step explanation:

A = {1, 2, 3, 4, 5, 6]

B = {3, 4, 5, 6, 7, 8)

for each A, B is 2 more

f(1) = 1 + 2 = 3

f(2) = 2 + 2 = 4

f(3) = 3 + 2 = 5

and so on...

⇒ f(x) = x + 2

f(x)=x+2

If A were to equal 1 then B would equal 2 since 2 is added each time creating this table

A Farmer Leans a 12 ft Ladder Against A Barn. The Base of the Ladder Is 6ft From The Barn.l To The Nearest Foot, How High on the Barn Does The Ladder Reach???

Answers

Answer:

10 ft to nearest foot.

Step-by-step explanation:

We use the Pythagoras theorem:

12^2 = 6^2 + h^2    where h is the height on the barn

h^2 = 12^2 - 6^2

h^2 = 144 - 36 = 102

Answers

Answer:

If function f : R --> R where f(X)=X³ - kX² + 12X - 7 is a one to one function, then k belongs to.... ​

Answers

Since f(x) is a cubic polynomial, it has at most 3 distinct roots. If f(x) has 3 real roots, then f(x) = 0 for more than one instance of x.

But if f(x) is one-to-one, then there must be only one real root and the other two are non-real. Let a + bi and a - bi be these non-real roots and c the single real root; then we can factorize f(x) as

[tex]f(x) = x^3 - kx^2 + 12x + 7 = (x - (a + bi)) (x - (a - bi)) (x - c)[/tex]

Expand the right side to get

[tex]f(x) = x^3 - kx^2 + 12x + 7 = (x^2 - 2ax + a^2+b^2) (x - c)[/tex]

[tex]f(x) = x^3 - kx^2 + 12x + 7 = x^3 - (2a + c) x^2 + (a^2 + 2ac + b^2) x - (a^2c + b^2c)[/tex]

from which it follows that

[tex]\begin{cases}k = 2a + c \\ 12 = a^2+2ac+b^2 \\ 7 = -a^2c-b^2c\end{cases}[/tex]

Since f(x) has only one root, its graph will have no turning points/extrema. If f(x) has a critical point, it must be a saddle point. Differentiating f(x) yields

[tex]f'(x) = 3x^2 - 2kx + 12[/tex]

Solve for the critical point:

[tex]f'(x) = 3x^2 - 2kx + 12 = 0[/tex]

[tex]x^2 - \dfrac{2k}3 x = -4[/tex]

[tex]x^2 - \dfrac{2k}3 x + \dfrac{k^2}9 = \dfrac{k^2}9-4[/tex]

[tex]\left(x - \dfrac k3\right)^2 = \dfrac{k^2}9-4[/tex]

[tex]x = \dfrac k3 \pm \sqrt{\dfrac{k^2}9-4}[/tex]

There is at most one real critical point, so either the square root term vanishes or it produces a non-real number. This happens for

[tex]\dfrac{k^2}9 - 4 \le 0 \implies k^2 \le 36 \implies -6 \le k \le 6[/tex]

So, if f(x) is one-to-one, then

[tex]k \in \left\{\kappa \in \Bbb R \mid -6 \le \kappa \le 6\right\}[/tex]

Proportions

Given that Netflix is considering a new romcom (romantic comedy) series, and a random sample of 1,000 viewers was selected and 625 viewers indicated they would watch the new series, for A) estimate the value of the population proportion of people who would watch the new series, and B) develop a 99% confidence interval for the population proportion of people who would watch the new series, the following calculations must be made:

A)

625 = 1

1000 = X

1000 / 625 = X

1.6 = X

10 out of 16, or 5 out of 8.

B)

62.5 x 0.99 = 61.875

62.5 x 1.01 = 63.125
