Reuters reports that 15 percent of australians smoke. by introducing tough laws banning brand labels on cigarette packages, australia hopes to ultimately reduce the percentage of people smoking to 10%. answer the following questions based on a sample of 240 australians..

Answers

Answer 1

The mean of the sampling distribution of proportion is 0.15

The probability the sample proportion will be within 0.04 of the population proportion is 0.9182

The probability the sample proportion that will be within 0.02 of the population proportion is 0.6157

P(Smokers) in Australia= 15/100=0.15

Sample, n =240

Part a, The mean of the sampling distribution of proportion:

μ₂ = P(Smokers)

    = 0.15

The mean of the sampling distribution of proportion is 0.15

The standard deviation of the sampling distribution of proportion is,

δ [tex]=\sqrt{p\frac{(1-p)}{n} }[/tex]

  [tex]=\sqrt{0.15\frac{(1-0.15)}{240} }[/tex]

 [tex]=0.0230[/tex]

The standard deviation of the sampling distribution of proportion is 0.0230

Part b, The probability the sample proportion will be within +/-0.04 of the population proportion:

To find this, we first, compute the z score then find probability based on standard normal table.

For 0.15-0.04,  p=0.11 and converts to:

   [tex]z=\frac{p-u_{p} }{standard deviation} \\[/tex]

   [tex]=\frac{0.11-0.15}{0.0230}[/tex]

  = -1.74

For 0.15+0.04, p=0.19, and converts to:

    [tex]z=\frac{0.19-0.15}{0.0230}[/tex]

     = 1.74

From the standard normal distribution table, the associated probability for z values and subtracts the probability is,

     [tex]=p(-1.74\leq z\leq 1.74)[/tex]

     [tex]=0.9591-0.0409[/tex]

    [tex]=0.9182[/tex]  

Hence, the probability the sample proportion will be within 0.04 of the population proportion is 0.9182

Part c, the probability the sample proportion will be within 0.02 of the population proportion:

First, compute the z score then find probability based on standard normal table.

For 0.15-0.02, p=0.13, and converts to:

       [tex]=\frac{0.13-0.15}{0.0230}[/tex]

       =-0.87

For 0.15+0.02, p=0.17, this converts to:

    [tex]=\frac{0.17-0.15}{0.0230}[/tex]

    =0.87

From the standard normal distribution table, the associated probability for z values and subtracts the probability is,

    [tex]=p(-0.87\leq z\leq 0.87)[/tex]

   [tex]=0.8079-0.1922[/tex]

   [tex]=0.6187[/tex]

Hence, the probability the sample proportion will be within 0.02 of the population proportion is 0.6157

A small container of paint will cover 20,000cm².
Luke wants to paint all the faces of fifty 8cm cubes.
Is one container of paint enough?​

Answers

One paint container is enough to paint all the faces of fifty 8 cm cubes.

Given

The paint can cover 20,000 [tex]cm^{2}[/tex]

Side of square  = 8 cm

As the Total surface area of a cube is  [tex]6a^{2}[/tex],

where a is the side of the cube.

The total surface area of one cube =  6 x [tex]8^{2}[/tex]

                                                          =  384 [tex]cm^{2}[/tex]

Since there are fifty such cubes,

384 x 50

Total area to be painted = 19200 [tex]cm^{2}[/tex]

Since 19,200 [tex]cm^{2}[/tex] is less than 20,000 [tex]cm^{2}[/tex] , it is possible to paint all the cubes.

Hence one paint container is enough to paint all cubes.

Graph the line -3 with slope (-4,-2) passing through the point

Answers

The linear equation of the line that passes through point (-4,-2) and has a slope of -3 is y = -3x - 14.

What is the graph of the line with the given slope and point?

The formula for equation of line is expressed as;

y = mx + b

Where m is slope and b is y-intercept.

Given the data in the question;

Point ( -4, -2 )

x = -4y = -2Slope m = -3

First we calculate the y-intercept 'b' using the equation of line formula.

y = mx + b

Plug in point ( -4, -2 ) and slope -3.

-2 = -3(-4) + b

-2 = 12 + b

b = -2 - 12

b = -14

Now that we have the values of slope m and y-intercept b, plug these into y = mx + b to determine the equation of the line.

y = mx + b

y = -3(x) + ( -14 )

y = -3x - 14

Therefore, the equation of the line is y = -3x - 14.

A reservoir has an area of about 1.8 × 104 square miles. Its volume is about 28,000 cubic miles. Find the area of the reservoir in standard form and its volume in scientific notation.

Answers

The area of the reservoir in standard form is 1.8 × 10⁴ square miles

The volume of the reservoir in scientific notation is 2.8 × 10⁴ cubic miles

Writing an expression in standard form

From the question, we are to determine the area of the reservoir in standard form and the volume of the reservoir in scientific notation

Any number that we can write as a decimal number, between 1.0 and 10.0, multiplied by a power of 10, is said to be in standard form

Thus,

To write a number in standard form, we will write the number as a product of a number between 1.0 and 10.0 and a power of 10

From the given information,

The area of the reservoir is 1.8 × 10⁴ square miles.

The area of the reservoir is already written in standard form

Now,

To write the volume of the reservoir in scientific notation

NOTE: Standard form is the same as scientific notation

From the given information,

The volume of the reservoir is 28000 cubic miles

28000 = 2.8 × 10⁴

Hence, the volume in scientific notation is 2.8 × 10⁴ cubic miles

i earn an annual salary of $30,572 and my commission is 5% on all sales. How much must my sales be if i want my annual salary to be $31,836?

Answers

If you want to make an annual salary of $31,836, then your sales must be $25,280

How much must my sales be to get the desired salary?

Ok, so you want to earn a total of $31,836, and he has a fixed salary of $30,572, so the missing amount is:

$31,836 - $30,572 = $1,264

Now, we know that you make a commission of the 5% of what you sell, so if X is what you sell, then to make the desired salary X must be:

X*0.05 = $1,264

Solving that linear equation for X we get:

X = $1,264/0.05 = $25,280

1/3(2x-3/7)+1/6x=4/7 find x

If the equation is 1/3(2x - 3/7)+(1/6)x = 4/7 , then the value of x is 3/7.

The given equation is

1/3(2x - 3/7)+(1/6)x = 4/7

First we have to apply the distributive property of subtraction in the equation

1/3(2x - 3/7)+(1/6)x = 4/7

(3/2)x - 1/7 + (1/6)x = 4/7

Here we have to rearrange the terms and group the like terms

Move the 1/7 to right hand side of the equation

(3/2)x + (1/6)x = (4/7)+(1/7)

Addition of like terms

(5/3)x = 5/7

Move the 5/3 to the right hand side of the equation

x = 5/7 ÷ 5/3

x = 5/7 × 3/5

x = 3/7

Hence, if the equation is 1/3(2x - 3/7)+(1/6)x = 4/7 , then the value of x is 3/7

How to find the nth term of a series?

nth term = (3n - 5) /4

Where,

n = number of terms

First term, a = (3n - 5) / 4

substitute n = 1 into the equation

= (3n - 5) / 4

= {3(1) - 5} / 4

= (3 - 5) / 4

= -2/4

= -1/2

The first term of the series whose nth term is 3n-5/4 is -1/2

When n = 12

(3n - 5) / 4

= {3(12) - 5} / 4

The inequality that will define Omar's run is 12 + m ≥ 28.

An inequity is what?

An inequality in algebra is a mathematical statement that employs the inequality symbol to show how two expressions relate to one another. The phrases on either side of an inequality symbol are not equal. The phrase on the left should be larger or smaller than the expression on the right, or vice versa, according to this symbol. Relationships between two algebraic expressions that are represented by the inequality symbols are known as literal inequalities. The relationship is known as an inequality when the symbols ">", "", "", or "" are used to link two real numbers or algebraic expressions.

For this issue, it is said that Omar would run at least 28 miles this week; he may run more, but 28 miles is his minimum objective.

Answers

The number of pies that Red Riding Hood's mother made is 25.

Pies left after mother ate 1 = x - 1

0.5(x - 1)

0.5x - 0.5

Pies left after Red Riding Hood ate 2: [(0.5x - 0.5) - 2]

Pie after she gave the wolf 1/3 ; (1 - 1/3) × [(0.5x - 0.5) - 2]

In order to determine the value of x, take the following steps:

Multiply both sides of the equation by 3/2.

[(0.5x - 0.5) - 2] = 12

Add 2 to both sides of the equation: 0.5x - 0.5 = 12 + 2

0.5x - 0.5 = 12

Add 0.5 to both sides of the equation

0.5x = 12 + 0.5

An eastbound train and a westbound train meet each other on parallel tracks heading in opposite directions. The eastbound train travels 18 miles per hour faster than the westbound train. After 2.5 hours, they are 280 miles apart. At what speeds are the two trains traveling?

Answers

Answer: The eastbound train is traveling at 65mph while the westbound train travels at 47mph.

Step-by-step explanation:

You would use x as the variable for the speed of the westbound train. The eastbound train would be 18+x. your equation would be 2.5(18+x+x)=280
You would find that x=47 for the westbound train. You would then add 18 to get the speed of the eastbound train which would be 65.
