Answer:

42.42 inches

Step-by-step explanation:

Given the dimension of the box are 24 inches, 30 inches, and 18 inches.

Considering the box is in rectangular in shape.

We also know that longest part of the box is the diagonal.

∴ lets calculate the diagonal to find longest stick that can be placed within a box.

Diagonal= $\sqrt{a^{2}+b^{2}+c^{2} }$

Where a,b,c are the dimensions of the box.

Diagonal= $\sqrt{24^{2} +30^{2}+18^{2} }$

⇒ Diagonal= $\sqrt{576+900+324}$

⇒ Diagonal= $\sqrt{1800}$

⇒ Diagonal= 42.42 inches

Hence, 42.42 inches longest stick that can be placed within a box.

Answer:

(a) The standard error of estimate of the fraction of blue cards in the deck is 0.145.

(b) The sample size required is 84.

Step-by-step explanation:

The proportion of blue cards is, p = 0.30.

The number of times the cards were shuffled is, n = 10.

(a)

The standard error for sample proportion is given by:

$SE_{p}=\sqrt{\frac{p(1-p)}{n}}$

Compute the value of standard error as follows:

$SE_{p}=\sqrt{\frac{p(1-p)}{n}}\\=\sqrt{\frac{0.30\times (1-0.30)}{10}}\\=\sqrt{0.021}\\=0.145$

Thus, the standard error of estimate of the fraction of blue cards in the deck is 0.145.

(b)

Now we need to reduce the standard error.

The standard error is inversely proportional to the sample size.

If the sample size is increased then the standard error will be decreased.

So we need to use a larger sample size.

Compute the value of n for standard error 0.05 and p = 0.30 as follows:

$SE_{p}=\sqrt{\frac{p(1-p)}{n}}\\0.05=\sqrt{\frac{0.30(1-0.30)}{n}}\\0.05^{2}=\frac{0.21}{n}\\n=84$

Thus, the sample size required is 84.
