Insurance companies are interested in knowing the population percent of drivers who always buckle up before riding in a car. When designing a study to determine this population proportion, what is the minimum number of drivers you would need to survey to be 95% confident that the population proportion is estimated to within 0.05?
If it was later determined that it was important to be more than 95% confident and a new survey was commissioned, how would that affect the minimum number you would need to survey? Why?
a. If the confidence level is increased, then the sample size would need to increase because a higher level of confidence increases the margin of error.
b. If the confidence level is increased, then the sample size would need to decrease because increasing the sample size would create an even larger interval.
c. If the confidence level is increased, then the sample size would need to decrease because we would like the proportion of people who buckle up to be around 50%.
d. If the confidence level is increased, then the sample size would not be affected.
Answer:
The value is [tex]n = 384 [/tex]
The correct option is a
Step-by-step explanation:
From the question we are told that
The margin of error is E = 0.05
From the question we are told the confidence level is 95% , hence the level of significance is
[tex]\alpha = (100 - 95 ) \%[/tex]
=> [tex]\alpha = 0.05[/tex]
Generally from the normal distribution table the critical value of is
[tex]Z_{\frac{\alpha }{2} } = 1.96[/tex]
Generally since the sample proportion is not given we will assume it to be
[tex]\^ p = 0.5[/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{ 1.96 }{0.05} ]^2 *0.5 (1 - 0.5) [/tex]
=> [tex]n = 384 [/tex]
Generally the margin of error is mathematically represented as
[tex]E = Z_{\frac{\alpha }{2} } * \frac{\sigma }{\sqrt{n} }[/tex]
Generally if the level of confidence increases, the critical value of [tex]\frac{\alpha }{2}[/tex] increase and from the equation for margin of error we see the the critical value varies directly with the margin of error , hence the margin of error will increase also
So If the confidence level is increased, then the sample size would need to increase because a higher level of confidence increases the margin of error.

What is the answer for number 7
Answer:
x = -35
Step-by-step explanation:
add 3 to both sides.
[tex]\frac{2}{5}[/tex]x - 3 + 3 = -17 + 3
[tex]\frac{2}{5}[/tex]x = -14
multiply both sides by [tex]\frac{5}{2}[/tex].
([tex]\frac{5}{2}[/tex]) · ([tex]\frac{2}{5}[/tex]x) = ([tex]\frac{5}{2}[/tex]) · (-14)
x = -35

Sandra rolls 2 fair dice.
What is the probability of both dice showing a different number?
Answer:
Each one has 3 even and 3 odd numbers.
For the first one to be even there is a 3/6 probability, which reduces to 1/2.
The probability of the second one being even is also 1/2.
The probability of both being even would be 1/2 x 1/2 = 1/4 probability

One-eighth of a number is -4,200.
What is the number?
-42,800
-37,800
-33,600
-42,000
Answer:
33,600
Step-by-step explanation:
take -4200 and multiply it by 8. You'd do this since the equation to get -4200 is
x(1/8) = -4200
multiply both sides by 8 to get rid of the fraction and you get x=33,600

$6,000 is invested in an account at interest rate r, compounded continuously. Find the time (in years) required for the amount to double when r= 9.5% and when r=2.5%.
Answer: When r= 9.5% , time = 7.3 years
When r= 2.5% , time = 27.7 years
Step-by-step explanation:
Exponential equation for compounded continuously:
[tex]A=Pe^{rx}[/tex] , where P= Principal value invested , r= rate of interest, x= time
Given : P= $6,000
A = 2P= 2 ($6,000) = $12,000 (i)
When r= 9.5%= 0.095
[tex]A= 6000e^{0.095x}[/tex] (ii)
From (i) and (ii)
[tex]6000e^{0.095x}=12000\\\\\Rightarrow\ e^{0.095x}=2\\\\\Rightarrow\ \ln e^{0.095x} =\ln 2\\\\\Rightarrow\ 0.095x=0.693147\\\\\Rightarrow\ x=\dfrac{0.693147}{0.095}=7.296284210\approx7.3 \text{ years}[/tex]
For r= 2.5% = 0.025
[tex]6000e^{0.025x}=12000\\\\\Rightarrow\ e^{0.025}=2\\\\\Rightarrow\ \ln e^{0.025x} =\ln 2\\\\\Rightarrow\ 0.025x=0.693147\\\\\Rightarrow\ x=\dfrac{0.693147}{0.025}=27.72588\approx27.7 \text{ years}[/tex]

An integer is 15 more than 2 times another. If the product of the two integers is -27, then find the integers
Answer:
The required integers are x=3 and y= -9
Step-by-step explanation:
Let one the integers be x and y
An integer is 15 more than 2 times another: x=15+2y
product of the two integers is -27: x*y=27
[tex]x=15+2y ---eq(1)\\x*y=-27----eq(2)[/tex]
Solving both equations to find values of x and y
Putting value of x from equation 1 in equation 2
[tex](15+2y)*y=-27\\15y+2y^2=-27\\Rearranging:\\2y^2+15y-27=0[/tex]
This can be solved using quadratic formula:
[tex]$y=\frac{-b\pm\sqrt{b^2-4ac}}{2a}$[/tex]
Putting values and finding factors
[tex]$y=\frac{-(15)\pm\sqrt{(15)^2-4(2)(-27)}}{2(2)}$\\$y=\frac{-(15)\pm\sqrt{225+216}}{4}$\\$y=\frac{-(15)\pm\sqrt{441}}{4}$\\$y=\frac{-(15)\pm21}{4}$\\$y=\frac{-(15)+21}{4} \ or \ y=\frac{-(15)-21}{4}$\\$y=\frac{6}{4} \ or \ y=\frac{-36}{4}$\\$y=\frac{3}{2} \ or \ y=-9$[/tex]
Since y is integer so, we consider only y= -9
The value of x will be:
[tex]x*y=-27\\x*(-9)=-27\\x=\frac{-27}{-9} \\x=3[/tex]
So, the value of x is x=3
The required integers are x=3 and y= -9
