Answer:

a. Identify the population of interest in this study.

  • all the population of the country

b. Identify the sample for the study.

  • 50 adults (the ones that were surveyed)

c. Identify the parameter of interest in the study.

  • the parameter of interest is the people that believe that coffee shops are overpriced

d. Find and interpret a 95​% confidence interval for the parameter of interest.

z score for a 95% confidence level = 1.96

margin of error (E) = z score x √{[0.4(1 - 0.4)] / 50} = 1.96 x 0.069282 = 0.13579

95% confidence level interval:

0.4 - 0.13579 = 0.26421

0.4 + 0.13579 = 0.53579

  • 95% confidence interval (0.26421 , 0.53579)

Experimental probability = 1/5

Theoretical probability = 1/4

note: 1/5 = 0.2 and 1/4 = 0.25

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

How I got those values:

We have 12 hearts out of 60 cards total in our simulation or experiment. So 12/60 = (12*1)/(12*5) = 1/5 is the experimental probability. In the simulation, 1 in 5 cards were a heart.

Theoretically it should be 1 in 4, or 1/4, since we have 13 hearts out of 52 total leading to 13/52 = (13*1)/(13*4) = 1/4. This makes sense because there are four suits and each suit is equally likely.

The experimental probability and theoretical probability values are not likely to line up perfectly. However they should be fairly close assuming that you're working with a fair standard deck. The more simulations you perform, the closer the experimental probability is likely to approach the theoretical one.

For example, let's say you flip a coin 20 times and get 8 heads. We see that 8/20 = 0.40 is close to 0.50 which is the theoretical probability of getting heads. If you flip that same coin 100 times and get 46 heads, then 46/100 = 0.46 is the experimental probability which is close to 0.50, and that probability is likely to get closer if you flipped it say 1000 times or 10000 times.

In short, the experimental probability is what you observe when you do the experiment (or simulation). So it's actually pulling the cards out and writing down your results. Contrast with a theoretical probability is where you guess beforehand what the result might be based on assumptions. One such assumption being each card is equally likely.

Work out (5.32 x 10^-7): (2.5 x 10^-5)<br>Give your answer in standard form​
Mrrafil [7]

Answer:

1.33×10^-6

Step-by-step explanation:

5.32 x 10^-7= 5.32×10^(-5-2)= 5.32×10^-2×10^(-5)

=0.0532×10^-5

(0.0532×10^-5) (2.5 x 10^-5)

0.0532×2.5 × 10^-5

0.133×10^-5= 1.33×10^-1 ×10^-5

1.33×10^-6

I need help please. If you are correct, I will give you Brainliest.
earnstyle [38]

Answer:

(C) 220

Step-by-step explanation:

Let x represent the number of adult tickets sold and y represent the number of student tickets sold. With the information given, we can set up two equations:

x+y=360

5x+3y=1360 (Since for every adult ticket sold, $5 is made and for every student ticket sold, $3 is made)

In the first equation, we can represent x in terms of y:

x=360-y

And then, we can substitute x in the second equation for 360 - y to get:

5(360-y)+3y=1360 which simplifies to:

1800-2y=1360 and therefore, y=220.

Hope this helps :)

Find NL. Not sure to to solve this.
Paul [167]

Answer:

NL= 2 × HI

x+24 =2 × (X+16)

x+24=2x + 32

2x-x= 24-32

x= – 8

NL=x+24 = –8 +24= 16

So ; NL= 16

I hope I helped you^_^

What are the types of roots of the equation below?<br> - 81=0
Tju [1.3M]

Option B, that is Two Complex and Two Real which are x + 3, x - 3, x + 3i and x - 3i, are the types of roots of the equation x⁴ - 81 = 0. This can be obtained by finding root of the equation using algebraic identity.    

<h3>What are the types of roots of the equation below?</h3>

Here in the question it is given that,

  • the equation x⁴ - 81 = 0

By using algebraic identity, (a + b)(a - b) = a² - b², we get,  

⇒ x⁴ - 81 = 0                      

⇒ (x² +  9)(x² - 9) = 0

⇒ (x² + 9)(x² - 9) = 0

  1. (x² -  9) = (x² - 3²) = (x - 3)(x + 3) [using algebraic identity, (a + b)(a - b) = a² - b²]
  2. x² + 9 = 0 ⇒ x² = -9 ⇒ x = √-9 ⇒ x= √-1√9 ⇒x = ± 3i

⇒ (x² + 9) = (x - 3i)(x + 3i)

Now the equation becomes,

[(x - 3)(x + 3)][(x - 3i)(x + 3i)] = 0

Therefore x + 3, x - 3, x + 3i and x - 3i are the roots of the equation

To check whether the roots are correct multiply the roots with each other,

⇒ [(x - 3)(x + 3)][(x - 3i)(x + 3i)] = 0

⇒ [x² - 3x + 3x - 9][x² - 3xi + 3xi - 9i²] = 0

⇒ (x² +0x - 9)(x² +0xi - 9(- 1)) = 0

⇒ (x² - 9)(x² + 9) = 0

⇒ x⁴ - 9x² + 9x² - 81 = 0

⇒ x⁴ - 81 = 0

Hence Option B, that is Two Complex and Two Real which are x + 3, x - 3, x + 3i and x - 3i, are the types of roots of the equation x⁴ - 81 = 0.
