A simple random sample of size n=250 individuals who are currently employed is asked if they work at home at least once per week
Levart [38]

Answer:

99% confidence interval for the population proportion of employed individuals is [0.104 , 0.224].

Step-by-step explanation:

We are given that a simple random sample of size n=250 individuals who are currently employed is asked if they work at home at least once per week.

Of the 250 employed individuals​ surveyed, 41 responded that they did work at home at least once per week.

Firstly, the pivotal quantity for 99% confidence interval for the population proportion is given by;

                              P.Q. = \frac{\hat p-p}{\sqrt{\frac{\hat p(1-\hat p)}{n} } }  ~ N(0,1)

where, \hat p = sample proportion of individuals who work at home at least once per week = \frac{41}{250} = 0.164

           n = sample of individuals surveyed = 250

<em>Here for constructing 99% confidence interval we have used One-sample z proportion statistics.</em>

So, 99% confidence interval for the population proportion, p is ;

P(-2.5758 < N(0,1) < 2.5758) = 0.99  {As the critical value of z at 0.5%

                                             level of significance are -2.5758 & 2.5758}  

P(-2.5758 < \frac{\hat p-p}{\sqrt{\frac{\hat p(1-\hat p)}{n} } } < 2.5758) = 0.99

P( -2.5758 \times {\sqrt{\frac{\hat p(1-\hat p)}{n} } } < {\hat p-p} < 2.5758 \times {\sqrt{\frac{\hat p(1-\hat p)}{n} } } ) = 0.99

P( \hat p-2.5758 \times {\sqrt{\frac{\hat p(1-\hat p)}{n} } } < p < \hat p+2.5758 \times {\sqrt{\frac{\hat p(1-\hat p)}{n} } } ) = 0.99

<em>99% confidence interval for p</em> = [\hat p-2.5758 \times {\sqrt{\frac{\hat p(1-\hat p)}{n} } } , \hat p+2.5758 \times {\sqrt{\frac{\hat p(1-\hat p)}{n} } }]

= [ 0.164-2.5758 \times {\sqrt{\frac{0.164(1-0.164)}{250} } } , 0.164+2.5758 \times {\sqrt{\frac{0.164(1-0.164)}{250} } } ]

 = [0.104 , 0.224]

Therefore, 99% confidence interval for the population proportion of employed individuals who work at home at least once per week is [0.104 , 0.224].

The 5th term in a geometric sequence is 160. The 7th term is 40. What are possible values of the 6th term of the sequence?
omeli [17]

Answer:

C. The 6th term is positive/negative 80

Step-by-step explanation:

Given

Geometric Progression

T_5 = 160

T_7 = 40

Required

T_6

To get the 6th term of the progression, first we need to solve for the first term and the common ratio of the progression;

To solve the common ratio;

Divide the 7th term by the 5th term; This gives

\frac{T_7}{T_5} = \frac{40}{160}

Divide the numerator and the denominator of the fraction by 40

\frac{T_7}{T_5} = \frac{1}{4} ----- equation 1

Recall that the formula of a GP is

T_n = a r^{n-1}

Where n is the nth term

So,

T_7 = a r^{6}

T_5 = a r^{4}

Substitute the above expression in equation 1

\frac{T_7}{T_5} = \frac{1}{4}  becomes

\frac{ar^6}{ar^4} = \frac{1}{4}

r^2 = \frac{1}{4}

Square root both sides

r = \sqrt{\frac{1}{4}}

r = ±\frac{1}{2}

Next, is to solve for the first term;

Using T_5 = a r^{4}

By substituting 160 for T5 and ±\frac{1}{2} for r;

We get

160 = a \frac{1}{2}^{4}

160 = a \frac{1}{16}

Multiply through by 16

16 * 160 = a \frac{1}{16} * 16

16 * 160 = a

2560 = a

Now, we can easily solve for the 6th term

Recall that the formula of a GP is

T_n = a r^{n-1}

Here, n = 6;

T_6 = a r^{6-1}

T_6 = a r^5

T_6 = 2560 r^5

r = ±\frac{1}{2}

So,

T_6 = 2560( \frac{1}{2}^5) or T_6 = 2560( \frac{-1}{2}^5)

T_6 = 2560( \frac{1}{32}) or T_6 = 2560( \frac{-1}{32})

T_6 = 80 or T_6 = -80

T_6 =±80

Hence, the 6th term is positive/negative 80

If you can get an answer to any question, what would you ask? You toss a fair coin 4 times. What is the probability that (round
Andrew [12]

Answers:

a) 0.0625

b) 0.9375

==================================================

Work Shown:

The probability of landing on heads is 1/2 = 0.5 since both sides are equally likely to land on. Getting 4 heads in a row is (1/2)^4 = (0.5)^4 = 0.0625

The event of getting at least one tail is the complement of getting all four heads. This is because you either get all four heads or you get at least one tail. One or the other must happen. We subtract the result we got from 1 to get 1-0.0625 = 0.9375

You can think of it like this

P(getting all four heads) + P(getting at least one tail) = 1

The phrasing "at least one tail" means "one tail or more".
