How do you find the normal approximation without using the continuity correction?

Dennis_Churaev [7]

Let's say you want to compute the probability $\mathbb P(a\le X\le b)$ where $X$ converges in distribution to $Y$ , and $Y$ follows a normal distribution. The normal approximation (without the continuity correction) basically involves choosing $Y$ such that its mean and variance are the same as those for $X$ .

Example: If $X$ is binomially distributed with $n=100$ and $p=0.1$ , then $X$ has mean $np=10$ and variance $np(1-p)=9$ . So you can approximate a probability in terms of $X$ with a probability in terms of $Y$ :

$\mathbb P(a\le X\le b)\approx\mathbb P(a\le Y\le b)=\mathbb P\left(\dfrac{a-10}3\le\dfrac{Y-10}3\le\dfrac{b-10}3\right)=\mathbb P(a^*\le Z\le b^*)$

where $Z$ follows the standard normal distribution.

A theatre group sold a total of 440 tickets for a show, making a total of $3940. Each regular ticket cost $5, each premium ticke

valentina_108 [34]

Answer: 330 regular tickets, 46 premium tickets and 64 elite tickets were sold.

Step-by-step explanation:

Let x represent the number of regular tickets that were sold.

Let y represent the number of premium tickets that were sold.

Let z represent the number of elite tickets that were sold.

The theatre group sold a total of 440 tickets for the show. It means that

x + y + z = 440- - - - - - - - - -1

Each regular ticket cost $5, each premium ticket cost $15, and each elite ticket cost $25. The total amount made from the show was $3940. It means that

5x + 15y + 25z = 3940- - - - - - - - - 2

The number of regular tickets was three times the number of premium and elite tickets combined. It means that

x = 3(y + z)

x = 3y + 3z

Substituting x = 3y + 3z into equation 1 and equation 2, it becomes

3y + 3z + y + z = 440

4y + 4z = 440- - - - - - - - - - - - -3

5(3y + 3z) + 15y + 25z = 3940

15y + 15z + 15y + 25z = 3940

30y + 40z = 3940 - - - - - - - - - - 4

Multiplying equation 3 by 10 and equation 4 by 1, it becomes

40y + 40z = 4400

30y + 40z = 3940

Subtracting, it becomes

10y = 460

y = 460/10

y = 46

Substituting y = 46 into equation 3, it becomes

4 × 46 + 4z = 440

184 + 4z = 440

4z = 440 - 184

4z = 256

z = 256/4

z = 64

x = 3(y + z) = 3(46 + 64)

x = 330

Carrie wished to build a rectangular dog run along theside of her garage. The garage will serve as one side of the fence. If she

Nat2105 [25]

Given:

Carrie has 180 ft of the fencing and wishes the fence to be 4times as long as it is wide.

To Find:

The area in square feet that the fencing encloses.

Answer:

The fence encloses 3600 sq ft.

Step-by-step explanation:

Let x denote the length of the dog run and y denote the width of the dog run.

Given that the garage wall serves as one side of the dog run, we are left with 3 other sides to instal the fence.

Carrie has 180ft of fencing with her, so the sum of the lengths of the 3 sides has to be equal to 180. We can represent this in the form of an equation as

$x+y+y=180\\\\x+2y=180\\\\x=180-2y$

We are also given that Carrie wishes the fence to be 4 times as long as it is wide.

So,

$x=4y$

Replacing this value into the first equation, we have

$4y=180-2y\\\\
6y=180\\\\
y=30$

Therefore,

$x=(4)(30)=120$

Thus, the length of the dog run is 120ft and the width is 30ft.

The area enclosed will be equal to the length multiplied with the width. So,

$(120)(30)=3600$

The fence encloses 3600 sq ft.

xxMikexx [17]

Given:
p = 20% = 0.2, sample proportion
n = 5000, sample size.
Confidence level = 95%

The confidence interval is
(p - 1.96k, p + 1.96k)
where
$k=\sqrt{ \frac{p(1-p)}{n} }=\sqrt{ \frac{0.2*0.8}{5000}} =0.00566$

Therefore the 95% confidence interval is
(0.1943, 0.2057) = (19.4%, 20.6%)

Answer: The 95% confidence interval is (19.4%, 20.6%)
