You and your friend are 8 slices of pizza out of 12 slices. What percent of the pizza is left?

An automobile manufacturer would like to know what proportion of its customers are not satisfied with the service provided by th

monitta

Answer:

a) n =1623

b) $ME=2.0538\sqrt{\frac{0.21 (1-0.21)}{1623}}=0.0208$

Step-by-step explanation:

1) Notation and definitions

$n$ random sample taken

$\hat p=0.19$ estimated proportion of customers are not satisfied with the service provided by the local dealer

Confidence =0.96 or 96%

Me= 0.02 represent the margin of error

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".

The population proportion have the following distribution

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

Part a

In order to find the critical value we need to take in count that we are finding the interval for a proportion, so on this case we need to use the z distribution. Since our interval is at 96% of confidence, our significance level would be given by $\alpha=1-0.96=0.04$ and $\alpha/2 =0.02$ . And the critical value would be given by:

$z_{\alpha/2}=-2.0538, z_{1-\alpha/2}=2.0538$

The margin of error for the proportion interval is given by this formula:

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

And on this case we have that $ME =\pm 0.02$ and we are interested in order to find the value of n, if we solve n from equation (a) we got:

$n=\frac{\hat p (1-\hat p)}{(\frac{ME}{z})^2}$ (b)

And replacing into equation (b) the values from part a we got:

$n=\frac{0.19(1-0.19)}{(\frac{0.02}{2.0538})^2}=1622.912$

And rounded up we have that n=1623

Part b

The margin of error is given by:

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

So then if w replace the value of n obtained from part a we got:

$ME=2.0538\sqrt{\frac{0.21 (1-0.21)}{1623}}=0.0208$

Find a set of parametric equations for y= 5x + 11, given the parameter t= 2 – x

Sati [7]

Answer:

$x = 2-t$ and $y = -5\cdot t +21$

Step-by-step explanation:

Given that $y = 5\cdot x + 11$ and $t = 2-x$ , the parametric equations are obtained by algebraic means:

1) $t = 2-x$ Given

2) $y = 5\cdot x +11$ Given

3) $y = 5\cdot (x\cdot 1)+11$ Associative and modulative properties

4) $y = 5\cdot \left[(-1)^{-1} \cdot (-1)\right]\cdot x +11$ Existence of multiplicative inverse/Commutative property

5) $y = [5\cdot (-1)^{-1}]\cdot [(-1)\cdot x]+11$ Associative property

6) $y = -5\cdot (-x)+11$ $\frac{a}{-b} = -\frac{a}{b}$ / $(-1)\cdot a = -a$

7) $y = -5\cdot (-x+0)+11$ Modulative property

8) $y = -5\cdot [-x + 2 + (-2)]+11$ Existence of additive inverse

9) $y = -5 \cdot [(2-x)+(-2)]+11$ Associative and commutative properties

10) $y = (-5)\cdot (2-x) + (-5)\cdot (-2) +11$ Distributive property

11) $y = (-5)\cdot (2-x) +21$ $(-a)\cdot (-b) = a\cdot b$

12) $y = (-5)\cdot t +21$ By 1)

13) $y = -5\cdot t +21$ $(-a)\cdot b = -a \cdot b$ /Result

14) $t+x = (2-x)+x$ Compatibility with addition

15) $t +(-t) +x = (2-x)+x +(-t)$ Compatibility with addition

16) $[t+(-t)]+x= 2 + [x+(-x)]+(-t)$ Associative property

17) $0+x = (2 + 0) +(-t)$ Associative property

18) $x = 2-t$ Associative and commutative properties/Definition of subtraction/Result

In consequence, the right answer is $x = 2-t$ and $y = -5\cdot t +21$ .

Karen has 4h storyboiks. Karen's storybook collection is 2/3 of what Mary's collection is. How many storybooks do they have in a

Dafna11 [192]

In order to find out the answer , you just need to count :
Let's say that mary's collection is symbolized by x

2/3 x = 4h

x = 3/2 . 4h

x = 6h

The storybooks they have in total would be : 6h + 4h = 10 h

hope this helps
