Thirty-two percent of all Americans drink bottled water more than once a week (Natural resources Defense Council, December 4, 20

15). Suppose you have been hired by the Natural Resources Defence Council to investigate bottled water consumption in St. Paul. You plan to select a sample of St. Paulites to estimate the proportion who drink bottled water more than once a week. Assume the sample proportion of St. Paulites to estimate the proportion who drink bottled water more than once a week is 0.32, the same as the overall proportion of americans who drink bottled water more than once a week. Use z-table. a. Suppose you select a sample of 540 St.Paulites. Show the sampling distribution of p (to 4 decimals) ク b. Based upon a sample of 540 St. Paulites, what is the probability that the sample proportion will be within 0.08 of the population proportion (to 4 decimals). probability= .9999 C. Suppose you select a sample of 230 St.Paulites. Show the sampling distribution of (to 4 decimals) =| .0201 0 d. Based upon a smaller sample of only 230 St. Paulites, what is the probability that the sample proportion will be within 0.08 of the population proportion (to 4 decimals) probability = .9907 e. As measured by the increase in probability, how much do you gain in precision by taking the larger sample in parts (a) and (b) rather than the smaller sample in parts (c) and (d)? Reduced by Have gain in precision by increasing the sample.

Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:

given E(p) = 0.32

random sample size n =540

a.) sample distribution=

standad deviation of p\sqrt{\frac{p(1-p}{n} } =\sqrt{\frac{0.32(1-0.32}{540} } =0.0201

b.)   z=\frac{p^{i}-p_{0} }{\sqrt{\frac{p_{0}(1-p_{0})}{n} } } \\\\\\\frac{0.32-0.08}{\sqrt{\frac{0.08*0.92}{540} } }=20.51\\

probability = 0.9999

c.) n = 230

E(p) = 0.32

\sqrt{\frac{p(1-p}{n} } =\sqrt{\frac{0.32*0.68}{230} } =0.0308

d.)  z=\frac{p^{i}-p_{0} }{\sqrt{\frac{p_{0}(1-p_{0})}{n} } } \\\\\\\frac{0.32-0.08}{\sqrt{\frac{0.08*0.92}{230} } }=13.41\\

probability = 0.9999

e.)  20.51-13.41=7.1

reduced by 7.1 and have gained in precision by increasing the sample.

Find the missing length
olga55 [171]

Answer:

θ ≈ 36.03°

Step-by-step explanation:

We can use tangent (opposite side / adjacent side) for this question:

tan (θ) = 8 / 11

θ = tan⁻¹ (8/11)

θ = 36.02737339

θ ≈ 36.03°

How many times longer is the wavelength of a sound wave with a frequency of 20 waves per second than the wavelength of a sound w
sergejj [24]

The sound wave with a <u>frequency of 20</u> waves/sec is 800 longer than the wavelength of a sound wave with a <u>frequency of 16,000</u> waves/sec

<h3>Calculating wavelength </h3>

From the question, we are to determine how many times longer is the first sound wave compared to the second sound water

Using the formula,

v = fλ

∴ λ = v/f

Where v is the velocity

f is the frequency

and λ is the wavelength

For the first wave

f = 20 waves/sec

Then,

λ₁ = v/20

For the second wave

f = 16,000 waves/sec

λ₂ = v/16000

Then,

The factor by which the first sound wave is longer than the second sound wave is

λ₁/ λ₂ = (v/20) ÷( v/16000)

= (v/20) × 16000/v)

= 16000/20

= 800

Hence, the sound wave with a <u>frequency of 20</u> waves/sec is 800 longer than the wavelength of a sound wave with a <u>frequency of 16,000</u> waves/sec

use Pythagorean Theorem to satisfy...a^2 + b^2 = c^2

200^2 + b^2 = 300^2
b^2 = 300^2 - 200^2
b^2 = 50000  (get square root of each)
b = 223.606  (rounded to the nearest tenth.... = 223.6
