Business Weekly conducted a survey of recent graduates from the top MBA programs. On the basis of the survey, assume that 60% of the recent graduates annual salary exceeds $40000. Suppose you take a simple random sample of 51 recent graduates. Note: round all z scores to decimal places and all other numbers to 4 decimal places. Find the probability that less than 70% of the 51 recent graduates have an annual salary exceeding $40000

Answers

Answer 1

Using the normal distribution and the central limit theorem, it is found that there is a 0.9279 = 92.79% probability that less than 70% of the 51 recent graduates have an annual salary exceeding $40000.

Normal Probability Distribution

In a normal distribution with mean [tex]\mu[/tex] and standard deviation [tex]\sigma[/tex], the z-score of a measure X is given by:

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

It measures how many standard deviations the measure is from the mean. After finding the z-score, we look at the z-score table and find the p-value associated with this z-score, which is the percentile of X.By the Central Limit Theorem, for a proportion p in a sample of size n, the sampling distribution of sample proportion is approximately normal with mean [tex]\mu = p[/tex] and standard deviation [tex]s = \sqrt{\frac{p(1 - p)}{n}}[/tex], as long as [tex]np \geq 10[/tex] and [tex]n(1 - p) \geq 10[/tex].

In this problem, we have that:

60% of the recent graduates annual salary exceeds $40000, hence p = 0.6.A sample of 51 is taken, hence n = 51.

The mean and the standard error are given by:

[tex]\mu = p = 0.6[/tex]

[tex]s = \sqrt{\frac{p(1 - p)}{n}} = \sqrt{\frac{0.6(0.4)}{51}} = 0.0686[/tex]

The probability that less than 70% of the 51 recent graduates have an annual salary exceeding $40000 is the p-value of Z when X = 0.7, hence:

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

By the Central Limit Theorem

[tex]Z = \frac{X - \mu}{s}[/tex]

[tex]Z = \frac{0.7 - 0.6}{0.0686}[/tex]

[tex]Z = 1.46[/tex]

[tex]Z = 1.46[/tex] has a p-value of 0.9279.

0.9279 = 92.79% probability that less than 70% of the 51 recent graduates have an annual salary exceeding $40000.

Find the sixth term of the geometric sequence when a4=−8 and r=0.5
A. 4
B. 2
C. -4
D. -2

Answers

Answer:

D

Step-by-step explanation:

to find a term in the sequence multiply the previous term by r , then

a₄ = - 8 , so

a₅ = - 8 × 0.5 = - 4

a₆ = - 4 × 0.5 = - 2

The sixth term of the sequence will be negative 2. Then the correct option is D.

What is a geometric sequence?

Let a₁ be the first term and r be the common ratio.

Then the nth term of the geometric sequence is given as,

aₙ = a₁ · (r)ⁿ⁻¹

The fourth term (a₄) is negative 8 and the common ratio is 0.5.

Then the sixth term will be

For n = 5, we have

a₅ = a₁ · (r)⁵⁻¹

a₅ = a₁ · (r)⁴

a₅ = a₁ · r³ · r

a₅ = a₄ · r

a₅ = -8 · 0.5

a₅ = -4

Then the sixth term of the sequence will be

a₆ = a₁ · (r)⁶⁻¹

a₆ = a₁ · (r)⁵

a₆ = a₁ · r⁴ · r

a₆ = a₅ · r

a₆ = -4 · 0.5

a₆ = -2

The sixth term of the sequence will be negative 2.

Then the correct option is D.

Find the perimeter and area of a regular hexagon with side lengths of 8 and an apothem of 9.

Answers

The perimeter and area of a regular hexagon with side length of 8 and apothem of 9 are 48 units and 216 units² respectively.

What is a regular hexagon?

A regular hexagon is a polygon with 6 sides and the angles are congruent.

The perimeter of the hexagon is the sum of the whole sides. Therefore,

side length = 8 units

apothem = 9 units

perimeter = 8 × 6 = 48 cm

The area of the hexagon can be calculated as follows:

area = 1 / 2 pa

where

p  =perimeter

a = apothem

Therefore,

area = 1  / 2 × 48 × 9

area = 432 / 2

area = 216 units²

The other dimension is the width of the rectangle

The other dimension is 51 centimeters

How to determine the length of the other dimension?

The given parameters are:

Area = 306 square centimeters

Length = 6 centimeters

The area of the rectangle is calculated as:

Area = Length * Width

This gives

306 = 6 * Width

Divide both sides by 6
