Based on the railway timetable given, the time the first train reaches Oakengates is 0815.

The time taken to reach Shrewsbury from Telford Central is 22 minutes.

<h3>What does the train timetable show?</h3>

Oakengates is 2 minutes away from Telford Central so when a train leaves the latter and arrives at 0815, this is the first train to Oakengates.

If one left Telford Central at 0852, they would reach Shrewsbury at 0914 to make it:

= 0914 - 0852

= 22 minutes

CUALES SON LOS GRADOS PARA HACER UNA GRAFICA DE PASTEL, CON LOS SIGUIENTES PORCENTAJES( 20%,50%,10%)

svlad2 [7]

Answer:

Lo primero que debemos saber, es que la gráfica de pastel nos permite dividir a una población, la cual sería el 100%, en porcentajes menores que representan algo.

En este caso tenemos los porcentajes 20%, 50%, 10% (notar que no suman 100%, entonces nos falta algún porcentaje)

Bueno, como sabemos el gráfico (el cual es un círculo) representa el 100%.

Y en un círculo, tenemos un ángulo de 360°

Entonces comenzamos con la equivalencia:

360° = 100%

Entonces, ¿a que grado corresponde el 50%? Planteamos la ecuación:

x = 50%

Si tomamos el cociente entre las ecuaciones:

x = 50% y 360° = 100%

obtenemos:

x/360° = 50%/100%

resolviendo para x, obtenemos:

x = (50%/100%)*360° = 0.5*360° = 180°

Para los otros porcentajes hacemos lo mismo.

Para el de 20% tenemos:

y = 20%

planteamos la ecuación:

y/360° = 20%/100%

y = 0.2*360° = 72°

Finalmente, para el de 10% tendremos:

z = 10%

planteando la ecuación como antes:

z/360° = 10%/100%

z = 0.1*360 = 36°

Asi, hemos encontrado los grados correspondientes para cada porcentaje.

A government report gives a 99% confidence interval for the proportion of welfare recipients who have been receiving welfare ben

juin [17]

Answer:

The estimation for the proportion for this case is $\hat p = 0.21$

And we know that the 99% confidence interval is given by:

$0.21 \pm 0.045$

So then the margin of error at 99% of confidence is 0.045, and the margin of error is given by this formula:

$ME= z_{\alpha/2} \sqrt{\frac{\hat p(1-\hat p)}{n}}$

If we decrease the confidence level this margin of error can't be higher than 0.045 so then the correct answer for this case would be:

d. 21% ± 4.8%

Because if the z value decrease from 2.58 to 1.96 not makes sense that the margin of error increase from 0.045(4.5%) to 0.048(4.8%)

Step-by-step explanation:

Previous concepts

A confidence interval is "a range of values that’s likely to include a population value with a certain degree of confidence. It is often expressed a % whereby a population means lies between an upper and lower interval".

The margin of error is the range of values below and above the sample statistic in a confidence interval.

Normal distribution, is a "probability distribution that is symmetric about the mean, showing that data near the mean are more frequent in occurrence than data far from the mean".

Solution to the problem

The population proportion have the following distribution

$p \sim N(p,\sqrt{\frac{\hat p(1-\hat p)}{n}})$

The confidence interval would be given by this formula

$\hat p \pm z_{\alpha/2} \sqrt{\frac{\hat p(1-\hat p)}{n}}$

For the 95% confidence interval the value of $\alpha=1-0.95=0.05$ and $\alpha/2=0.025$ , with that value we can find the quantile required for the interval in the normal standard distribution.

$z_{\alpha/2}=1.96$

For the 99% confidence interval the value of $\alpha=1-0.99=0.01$ and $\alpha/2=0.005$ , with that value we can find the quantile required for the interval in the normal standard distribution.
