Answers

Answer 1

The required sample sizes for the confidence intervals are given as follows:

a) Estimate of 38%: 566.

b) No estimate: 601.

How to obtain the required sample sizes?

The margin of error for a confidence interval of proportions, using the z-distribution, is calculated as follows:

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

The parameters of the equation are listed as follows:

[tex]\pi[/tex] is the sample proportion, which is also the estimate of the parameter.z is the critical value.n is the sample size.

The desired margin of error in this problem is of:

M = 0.04.

The confidence level is of 95%, hence the critical value z is the value of Z that has a p-value of [tex]\frac{1+0.95}{2} = 0.975[/tex], so the critical value is z = 1.96.

For item a, the estimate is of [tex]\pi = 0.38[/tex], hence the sample size is obtained as follows:

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

[tex]0.04 = 1.96\sqrt{\frac{0.38(0.62)}{n}}[/tex]

[tex]0.04\sqrt{n} = 1.96\sqrt{0.38(0.62)}[/tex]

[tex]\sqrt{n} = \frac{1.96\sqrt{0.38(0.62)}}{0.04}[/tex]

[tex](\sqrt{n})^2 = \left(\frac{1.96\sqrt{0.38(0.62)}}{0.04}\right)^2[/tex]

n = 566.

For item b, when there is no estimate, we use [tex]\pi = 0.5[/tex], hence:

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

[tex]0.04 = 1.96\sqrt{\frac{0.5(0.5)}{n}}[/tex]

[tex]0.04\sqrt{n} = 1.96\sqrt{0.5(0.5)}[/tex]

[tex]\sqrt{n} = \frac{1.96\sqrt{0.5(0.5)}}{0.04}[/tex]

[tex](\sqrt{n})^2 = \left(\frac{1.96\sqrt{0.5(0.5)}}{0.04}\right)^2[/tex]

n = 601.

Find the absolute maximum and absolute minimum values of f on the given interval.

f(x) = xe^(−x^2/98), [−3, 14]

absolute minimum value?
absolute maximum value?

Answers

Absolute minimum value and maximum value at f(-3) = -2.7 and

f(14) = 12.14 respectively.

Define function.

An association between a number of inputs and outputs is called a function. A function is, to put it simply, an association of inputs where each input is connected to exactly one output. For each function, there is a corresponding range, codomain, and domain.

Given function is -

f(x) = x*e^(−x^2/98)

By differentiating the function, we will get

f'(x) = (1)([tex]e^{-x^{2} /98}[/tex])+ x([tex]\frac{-2x}{98}[/tex] *    [tex]e^{-x^{2} /98}[/tex])

f'(x) = ([tex]e^{-x^{2} /98}[/tex] ) - ([tex]\frac{x^{2} }{49}[/tex] * [tex]e^{-x^{2} /98}[/tex])

f'(x) = ([tex]e^{-x^{2} /98}[/tex]) (1 - [tex]\frac{x^{2} }{49}[/tex])

To calculate the maximum and minimum value, (1 - [tex]\frac{x^{2} }{49}[/tex]) must be zero or              ([tex]e^{-x^{2} /98}[/tex]) must be zero.

=> (1 - [tex]\frac{x^{2} }{49}[/tex]) =0

=> [tex]\frac{x^{2} }{49}[/tex] = 1

=> [tex]x^{2}[/tex] = 49

=> x = 7 or x= -7

However, -7 is not within our given interval and does not need to be tested. Therefore, put the x = -3,7,14 in given function.

f(-3) = -3 [tex]e^{-9/98}[/tex] = -2.7

f(7) = 7 [tex]e^{-1/2}[/tex] = 4.24

f(14) = 14 [tex]e^{-1/7}[/tex] = 12.14

Absolute minimum value at f(-3) = -2.7 and

Absolute maximum value at f(14) = 12.14

Working on how to plot the axis of symmetry and the vertex for the function:h(x)=(x-5)^2-7

Answers

A generic expression of a quadratic is

[tex]f(x)=ax^2+bx+c[/tex]

We can write it using the vertex form, that is

[tex]f(x)=a(x-h)^2+k[/tex]

The vertex form holds a lot of important properties because it shows us immediately where the vertex is, just by looking at the value of "h" and "k" of the formula, in fact, the vertex of the parabola is

[tex](h,k)[/tex]

And the axis of symmetry of a parabola is the x-coordinate of the vertex, then, the axis of symmetry is

[tex]x=h[/tex]

But how to identify h and k when we have the parabola in the vertex form? We have the following equation

[tex]h(x)=(x-5)^2-7[/tex]

What's the value of the number that sums or subctract the quadratic term? In that case, it's -7, then it's the value of k

[tex]k=-7[/tex]

Now to identify the "h" we must take care, it seems like h = -5 because the quadratic term is (x-5)² but we always change the signal of the number inside the quadratic term, if we have -5 inside it, the value of h is 5

[tex]h=5[/tex]

Then, the vertex will be

[tex](h,k)=(5,-7)[/tex]

The vertex is (5, -7) and the axis of symmetry will be the same value of h, then

[tex]\begin{gathered} x=h \\ \\ x=5 \end{gathered}[/tex]

Symmetry and vertex

[tex]\begin{gathered} \text{ vertex: \lparen5, -7\rparen} \\ \\ \text{ axis of symmetry: x = 5} \end{gathered}[/tex]

Now, to plot the graph precisely we must find the roots of the parabola, in other words, the value of x that makes h(x) equal to zero:

[tex]\begin{gathered} h(x)=0 \\ \\ (x-5)^2-7=0 \end{gathered}[/tex]

Then, we want to solve:

[tex](x-5)^2-7=0[/tex]

Put the quadratic term on one side

[tex]\begin{gathered} (x-5)^2=7 \\ \end{gathered}[/tex]

Take the square root on both sides

[tex]\begin{gathered} \sqrt{(x-5)^2}=\sqrt{7} \\ \\ |x-5|=\sqrt{7} \end{gathered}[/tex]

Be careful! when we do the square root of the quadratic term we must remember to put the modulus. Then we will solve this modular equation:

[tex]|x-5|=\sqrt{7}[/tex]

Which is the same as solving to different equations:

[tex]|x-5|=\sqrt{7}\Rightarrow\begin{cases}x-5={\sqrt{7}} \\ x-5=-{\sqrt{7}}\end{cases}[/tex]

Then the two solutions are

[tex]\begin{gathered} x=5+\sqrt{7}\approx7.65 \\ \\ x=5-\sqrt{7}\approx2.35 \end{gathered}[/tex]

Then we can do the plot of the parabola with a good precision

After completing the fraction division 5 divided by 5/3, Miko used the multiplication shown to check her work. 3x5/3=3/1x5/3=15/3 or 5

Answers

Answer:

Explanation:

When we divided 5 by 5/3, we get:

[tex]5\div\frac{5}{3}=5\times\frac{3}{5}=\frac{5\times3}{5}=\frac{15}{5}=3[/tex]

Therefore, the quotient is 3.

Then, to check the division, we need to multiply the quotient 3 by the divisor 5/3. If we get the dividend 5, the division was correct, so

[tex]3\times\frac{5}{3}=\frac{3}{1}\times\frac{5}{3}=\frac{15}{3}=5[/tex]

Therefore, Miko found the correct quotient and checked her work using multiplication correctly.

A mathematical expression is made up of terms (constants and variables) separated by mathematical operators. A mathematical equation is used to equate two expressions. Equation modelling is the process of writing a mathematical verbal expression in the form of a mathematical expression for correct analysis, observations and results of the given problem.

We have the speed of a stream as 4 mph. A boat travels 6 miles upstream in the same time it takes to travel 14 miles downstream.

Assume the speed of the boat in still water be [x] mph.

We know that -

time [t] = distance[x]/speed[s]

Then, we can write -

6/(x - 4) = 14/(x + 4)

6(x + 4) = 14(x - 4)

6x + 24 = 14x - 56

56 + 24 = 8x

80 = 8x

x = 10 mph

Answers

Part a.

From the given infomation, the mean is equal to

[tex]\mu=2.9\text{ hours}[/tex]

and the standard deviation

[tex]\sigma=1.4\text{ hours}[/tex]

Then, the distribution of X is:

[tex]N(2.9,1.4)[/tex]

Part b.

In this case, we need to find the following probability:

[tex]P(X<2.6)[/tex]

So, in order to find this value, we need to convert the 2.6 hours into a z-value score by means of the z-score formula:

[tex]z=\frac{X-\mu}{\sigma}[/tex]

Then, by substituting the given values into the formula, we get

[tex]\begin{gathered} z=\frac{2.6-2.9}{1.4} \\ z=-0.214285 \end{gathered}[/tex]

Then, the probability we must find in the z-table is:

[tex]P(z<-0.214285)[/tex]

which gives

[tex]P(z<-0.214285)=0.41516[/tex]

Therefore, by rounding to 4 decimal places, the answer for part b is: 0.4152

Part c.

In this case, we need to find the following probability

[tex]P(X>2.5)[/tex]

Then, by converting 2.5 to a z-value, we have

[tex]\begin{gathered} z=\frac{2.5-2.9}{1.4} \\ z=-0.285714 \end{gathered}[/tex]

So, we need to find on the z-table:

[tex]P(z>-0.285714)[/tex]

which gives

[tex]P(z\gt-0.285714)=0.61245[/tex]

Then, by multiplying this probability by 100% and rounding to the nearest hundreadth,

the answer for part c is: 61.25 %

Part d.

In this case, we have the following information:

[tex]P(z>Z)=0.72[/tex]

and we need to find Z. From the z-table, we get

[tex]Z=0.58284[/tex]

Then, from the z-value formula, we have

[tex]-0.58284=\frac{X-2.9}{1.4}[/tex]

and we need to isolate the amount of hours given by X. Then, by multiplying both sides by 1.4, we obtain

[tex]-0.815976=X-2.9[/tex]

Then, X is given by

[tex]\begin{gathered} X=2.9-0.815976 \\ X=2.0840 \end{gathered}[/tex]

So, by rounding to 4 decimal places, the answer is: 2.0840 hours.

A TV set is offered for sale for P1, 800 down payment, and P950 every month for thebalance for 2 years. If interest is to be computed at 6% compounded monthly, what isthe cash price equivalent of the TV set?

Answers

Answer:

The cash equivalent price of the tv set is P5849.37

Explanation:

The total amount paid monthly is:

The initial down payment of P1800 and 24 payments of P950 (2 years = 24 months)

Then, the price paid with interest is:

[tex]1800+24\cdot950=24600[/tex]

Now, the formula for the monthly compound interest is:

[tex]A=P(1+\frac{r}{12})^{12t}[/tex]

Where:

A is the amount after t years

P is the initial amount (what we want to find)

R is the rate of compound in decimal

t is the number of years of compounding

In this case:

• A = 24600 (the total paid if compounded)

,

• P is what we want to find

,

• r = 0.06 ( to convert percentage to decimal, we divide by 100: 6%/100 = 0.06)

,

• t = 24 (2 years)

[tex]\begin{gathered} 24600=P(1+\frac{0.06}{12})^{12\cdot24} \\ . \\ 24600=P\cdot1.005^{288} \\ . \\ P=\frac{24600}{4.2056} \\ . \\ P=5849.373 \end{gathered}[/tex]

To the nearest cent, the cash price is 5849.37

how much simple interest can be earned in one year on $800 at 6%

Answers

The simple interest is defined as

[tex]I=P\cdot r\cdot t[/tex]

Where P is the principal, r is the interest rate and t is times in years. Replacing all given information, and using 0.06 as 6%, we have

[tex]I=800\cdot0.06\cdot1=48[/tex]Therefore, the simple interest is $48.

Hi can you please help meThe cut off part:On the same grid, line k passes through

Answers

line j and k are perpendicular (option B)

Explanation:

J passes through points (8, 2) and (-2, -2)

line K passes through (-4, 3) and (-6, 8)

We need to find the relationship betwen the lines by using the slope from both lines

slope formula is given by:

[tex]m\text{ = }\frac{y_2-y_1}{x_2-x_1}[/tex]

Let's find slope of each line:

[tex]\begin{gathered} \text{for line J: }x_1=8,y_1=2,x_2=-2,y_2\text{ = -}2 \\ \text{slope = m = }\frac{-2-2}{-2-8} \\ \text{slope = }\frac{-4}{-10} \\ \text{slope = 2/5} \\ \\ \text{for line K: }x_1=-4,y_1=3,x_2=-6,y_2\text{ = 8} \\ \text{slope = m = }\frac{8-3}{-6-(-4)} \\ \text{slope = }\frac{5}{-6+4}\text{ = 5/-2} \\ \text{slope = }\frac{\text{-5}}{2} \end{gathered}[/tex]

For two lines to be parallel, their slope will be the same:

Since the slopes are not the same, they are not parallel

For two lines to be perpendicular, the slope of one line will be negative reciprocal of the other line:

slope of one line = 2/5

reciprocal of the line = 5/2

negative reciprocal of the line = -5/2

We can see -5/2 is the slope of the other line.

As aresult, line j and k are perpendicular

[tex] - 15 \ \textless \ - 4x - 3[/tex]That's the Math problem

Answers

EXPLANATION

Given the inequality

-15 < -4x - 3

Adding +4x to both sides:

-15 + 4x < -4x + 4x -3

Adding +15 to both sides:

-15 + 15 + 4x < -3 + 15

Simplifying:

4x < -15 - 3

Adding like terms:

4x < -15 - 3

Dividing both sides by 4:

x < -18/4

Simplifying the fraction:

x < -4.5

The solution is x<-4.5
