Complete Question

An analysis of several polls suggests that 60% of all Florida voters plan to vote for Anderson. A poll of 250 randomly selected Florida voters shows that 144 plan to vote for Anderson.

Required:

a. What is the probability of this result (i.e. 144 voters or less out of 250) happening by chance, assuming the aggregate poll model proportion of 60% is correct?

b. Does your result from part I indicate that the number of voters who plan to vote for Anderson has decreased? In other words, is this outcome unusual?(Recall that an unusual  event has a probability of 0.05 or less of occurring )

Answer:

a

[tex]P(p  <  \^p) =   0.2206[/tex]

b

It is not an unusual event

Step-by-step explanation:

From the question we are told that

    The population proportion is  p =  0.60

   The sample size is  n =  250

    The number that plans to vote for Anderson is  k =  144

Generally the mean of the sampling distribution is  

        [tex]\mu _{x} =  p =  0.60[/tex]

Generally the standard deviation is  

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

=>    [tex]\sigma  =  \sqrt{ \frac{0.60(1 - 0.60 )}{250} }[/tex]

=>    [tex]\sigma  =   0.0310[/tex]

Generally the sample proportion is mathematically represented as  

         [tex]\^{p} =  \frac{k}{n}[/tex]

=>       [tex]\^{p} =  \frac{144}{250}[/tex]

=>     [tex]\^{p} = 0.576 [/tex]

Gnerally the probability of this result (i.e. 144 voters or less out of 250) happening by chance, assuming the aggregate poll model proportion of 60% is correct is mathematically represented as

  [tex]P(p  <  \^p) =  P(\frac{ p - \mu_{x}}{ \sigma }  <  \frac{ \^ p - \mu_{x}}{ \sigma } )[/tex]

=>     [tex]P(p  <  \^p) =  P(Z <  \frac{ 0.576 - 0,60}{ 0.0310} )[/tex]

=>      [tex]P(p  <  \^p) =  P(Z <  -0.77 )[/tex]

From the z-table  the probability of (Z <  -0.77)  is  

     [tex]P(Z <  -0.77 )  =  0.2206[/tex]

So

    [tex]P(p  <  \^p) =   0.2206[/tex]

Since

  [tex]0.2206 > 0.05[/tex] it implies that it is not an unusual  event

Container A and container B have leaks. Container A has 800ml of water, and is leaking 6 ml per minute. Container B has1000 ml, and is leaking 10 ml per minute. How many minutes, m, will it take for the two containers to have the same amount of water?

Answers

Answer:

50 minutes

Step-by-step explanation:

First set up an inequality to find you answer like

800 - 6x = 1000 - 10x

then subtract 800 from both sides leaving you with

-6x = 200 - 10 x

Then add 10 x to both sides giving you

4x = 200

The simplify from here by dividing 200 by 4

200/4 = 50 giving you your answer

A man bought 500 mangoes and found 1/4 of them rotten .If he sold the rest of mangoes at 3.36 each making 12% profit ,what was the cost price of each mango?​

Answers

Answer:

The cost price of each mango was $3

Step-by-step explanation:

The man bought 500 mangoes, but 1/4 of them were rotten. There were 1/4*500 = 125 rotten mangoes, thus the number of mangoes he sold is

500 - 125 = 375 mangoes

Selling them at $3.36 each, he had revenue of

375*3.36=$1,260

That amount includes the 12% profit, that is, it's 112% of the cost price, thus the cost price of all mangoes is

1,260 / 112 * 100 = $1,125

The price of each mango was $1,125 / 375 = $3

The cost price of each mango was $3

The Washington monument is 555 feet 5 1/8 inches tall and weighs 90,854 tons. The monument is topped by an aluminum square pyramid. The sides of the pyramid’s base measure 5.6 inches, and the pyramid is 8.9 inches tall. Estimate the slope that a face of the pyramid makes with its base.

Answers

Answer:

3.2

Step-by-step explanation:

Imagine a straight line from the top of the pyramid to the base, the point where the line will meet the base will be half the side of the pyramid. This will form a right angles triangle.

Slope is given by

[tex]\text{Slope}=\dfrac{\Delta y}{\Delta x}\\\Rightarrow \text{Slope}=\dfrac{8.9}{\dfrac{5.6}{2}}=3.17857\\\Rightarrow \text{Slope}\approx3.2[/tex]

Of the people who fished at Clearwater Park today, 48 had a fishing license, 32and did not. Of the people who fished at Mountain View Park today, 72 had a license, and 18 did not. (No one fished at both parks.)Suppose that one fisher from each park is chosen at random. What is the probability that the fisher chosen from Clearwater did not have a license and the fisher chosen from Mountain View had a license?

Answers

Answer:

The probability that the fisher chosen from Clearwater did not have a license and the fisher chosen from Mountain View had a license is 0.32.

Step-by-step explanation:

Denote the events as follows:

X = a fisher at Clearwater Park had a fishing license

Y = a fisher at Mountain View Park had a fishing license

The two events are independent.

The information provided is:

n (X) = 48

n (X') = 32

n (Y) = 72

n (Y') = 18

Then,

N (X) = n (X) + n (X')

        = 48 + 32

        = 80

N (Y) = n (Y) + n (Y')

        = 72 + 18

        = 90

Compute the probability that the fisher chosen from Clearwater did not have a license and the fisher chosen from Mountain View had a license as follows:

[tex]P(X'\cap Y)=P(X')\times P(Y)[/tex]

                 [tex]=\frac{n(X')}{N(X)}\times \frac{n(Y)}{N(Y)} \\\\=\frac{32}{80}\times\frac{72}{90}\\\\=0.32[/tex]

Thus, the probability that the fisher chosen from Clearwater did not have a license and the fisher chosen from Mountain View had a license is 0.32.

The margin of error in a 90% confidence interval estimate of the true proportion of games won by the team leading at the end of the third quarter with the plus-4 adjustment applied is (Show work): (5)

Answers

Answer: 0.038

Step-by-step explanation:

Given: Total games : n= 375

Number of games won by  the team that was winning the game at the end of the third quarter. = 300

The proportion (p) of the team that was winning the game at the end of the third quarter: [tex]p=\dfrac{300}{375}=0.8[/tex]

Critical z-value for 90% confidence: z* = 1.645

Margin of error =[tex]z^*\sqrt{\dfrac{(1-p)p}{n}}[/tex]

The margin of error in a 90% confidence interval estimate of p [tex]=1.645\sqrt{\dfrac{0.2\times0.8}{300}}\\= 1.645\times\sqrt{0.00053333}\\\\=1.645\times0.0231\\\\=0.0379995\approx$$0.038[/tex]

Hence, the required margin of error = 0.038

Read the situations below and determine which relationship is not functional.


Situation 1: a cell phone bill to the amount of minutes used


Situation 2: the perimeter of a square to the length of one of the sides of a square


Situation 3: the total amount of money charged monthly on credit cards to the number of credit cards owned

Answers

Answer:

Situation 3 is not functional

Step-by-step explanation:

Here, we want to determine if there exists a functional relationship between the properties in each situation.

For there to exist a functional relationship, then one of the factors in the situation must be dependent on the other factor in the situation.

Let us consider the situations individually now;

Situation 1

There exists a functional relationship here. This is because the higher the minutes used, the higher the cell phone bill and the lower the minutes used, the lower the cell phone bill. This is because there exists a fixed rate of charge per minute

Situation 2

There exists a functional relationship here too.

This is because, the we cannot find the perimeter of the square without knowing the measure of the sides of the square. That is why there is a mathematical formula that links the perimeter of the square to the sides of the square.

In a case where we have the perimeter as P and the sides as L

Then the functional equation linking both is;

P(l ) = 4 L

Situation 3;

There is no functional relationship here. The amount owed per each credit card is tied to the credit card in question.

There is no way the total amount owed by a person is distributed across the number of credit cards the person have. Each credit card has its own money charged on it monthly due to the activities on it which is independent on the activities of the other credit cards
