How large a sample is needed if we wish to be 96% confident that our sample proportion in Exercise 9.53 will be within 0.02 of the true fraction of the voting population?

Exercise 9.53

A. A random sample of 200 voters in a town is selected, and 114 are found to support an annexation suit. Find the 96% confidence interval for the fraction of the voting population favoring the suit.

B. What can we assert with 96% confidence about the possible size of our error if we estimate the fraction of voters favoring the annexation suit to be 0.57?

Answer:

The First question

                    [tex] n = 1879  [/tex]

A

    The 96% confidence interval is  

                      [tex]0.51 <  p <  0.63 [/tex]

B

   The possible size of our error if we estimate the fraction of voters favoring the annexation suit to be 0.57 is  

           [tex]E =    0.06 [/tex]

Step-by-step explanation:

From the question we are told that

    The margin of error is  [tex]E = 0.02[/tex]

     The sample size is  n =  200

     The number that supported the annexation suit is  k = 114

Considering the first question

Generally our sample in Exercise 9.53 is  [tex]\^ p = 0.57[/tex]

From the question we are told the confidence level is  96% , hence the level of significance is    

      [tex]\alpha = (100 - 96 ) \%[/tex]

=>   [tex]\alpha = 0.04[/tex]

Generally from the normal distribution table the critical value  of  [tex]\frac{\alpha }{2}[/tex] is  

   [tex]Z_{\frac{\alpha }{2} } =  1.751 [/tex]

Generally the sample size is mathematically represented as  

    [tex]n = [\frac{Z_{\frac{\alpha }{2} }}{E} ]^2 * \^ p (1 - \^ p ) [/tex]

=>  [tex]n = [\frac{1.751}{0.02 } ]^2 * \^ p (1 - \^ p ) [/tex]

=>  [tex]n = [\frac{1.751}{0.02 } ]^2 * 0.57  (1 -0.57  ) [/tex]

=>  [tex] n = 1879  [/tex]

Considering question B

Generally the margin of error is mathematically represented as  

     [tex]E =  Z_{\frac{\alpha }{2} } * \sqrt{\frac{\^ p (1- \^ p)}{n} } [/tex]

=>  [tex]E =    1.751 * \sqrt{\frac{ 0.57  (1- 0.57 )}{200} } [/tex]

=>  [tex]E =    0.06 [/tex]

Considering question A

Generally the sample proportion of the number that supported the annexation suit is mathematically represented as

        [tex]\^ p = \frac{114}{200}[/tex]

=>      [tex]\^ p = 0.57[/tex]

Generally 96% confidence interval is mathematically represented as  

      [tex]\^ p -E <  p <  \^ p +E[/tex]

=>  [tex]0.57  - 0.06 <  p <  0.57  + 0.06 [/tex]

=>  [tex]0.51 <  p <  0.63 [/tex]

A large container has a maximum capacity of 64 ounces. The container is filled with 8 ounces less than its maximum capacity. Answer parts a and b.
a. To what percent of its capacity is the large container filed?
The container is filled to % of the maximum capacity.

Answers

Answer:

The container is filled to 87.5% of the maximum capacity.

Step-by-step explanation:

Given

Maximum capacity of container = m = 64 ounces

Filled capacity=> as it is 8 less than maximum capacity = 64-8 = 56 ounces

The container is 56 ounces full.

To find the percentage:

[tex]percentage = \frac{56}{64}*100\\= 0.875*100\\=87.5\%[/tex]

Hence,

The container is filled to 87.5% of the maximum capacity.

Tia dilated the rectangle below by a scale factor of 7/2. What is ther perimeter of the new rectangle?
A
64 inches

B
220 inches

C
2695 inches

D
224 inches

Answers

Answer:

Option D

Step-by-step explanation:

Formula to be used,

Scale factor = [tex]\frac{\text{Dimension of the image rectangle}}{\text{Dimension of the original}}[/tex]

By this formula,

[tex]\frac{7}{2}=\frac{\text{Length of the dilated rectangle}}{\text{Length of the original rectangle}}[/tex]

[tex]\frac{7}{2}=\frac{L}{22}[/tex]

L = [tex]\frac{7\times 22}{2}[/tex]

  = 77 inches

Similarly, width of the the dilated rectangle = [tex]\frac{7}{2}\times 10[/tex]

                                                                        = 35 inches

Perimeter of the new rectangle = 2(Length + width)

                                                    = 2(77 + 35)

                                                    = 224 inches

Option (D) will be the correct option.

I need help with math homework #2 algebra

Answers

Answer:

A. (0, -2) and (4, 1)

B. Slope (m) = ¾

C. y - 1 = ¾(x - 4)

D. y = ¾x - 2

E. -¾x + y = -2

Step-by-step explanation:

A. Two points on the line from the graph are: (0, -2) and (4, 1)

B. The slope can be calculated using two points, (0, -2) and (4, 1):

[tex] slope (m) = \frac{y_2 - y_1}{x_2 - x_1} = \frac{1 -(-2)}{4 - 0} = \frac{3}{4} [/tex]

Slope (m) = ¾

C. Equation in point-slope form is represented as y - b = m(x - a). Where,

(a, b) = any point on the graph.

m = slope.

Substitute (a, b) = (4, 1), and m = ¾ into the point-slope equation, y - b = m(x - a).

Thus:

y - 1 = ¾(x - 4)

D. Equation in slope-intercept form, can be written as y = mx + b.

Thus, using the equation in (C), rewrite to get the equation in slope-intercept form.

y - 1 = ¾(x - 4)

4(y - 1) = 3(x - 4)

4y - 4 = 3x - 12

4y = 3x - 12 + 4

4y = 3x - 8

y = ¾x - 8/4

y = ¾x - 2

E. Convert the equation in (D) to standard form:

y = ¾x - 2

-¾x + y = -2
