A door delivery florist wishes to estimate the proportion of people in his city that will purchase his flowers. Suppose the true

proportion is 0.070.07. If 492492 are sampled, what is the probability that the sample proportion will differ from the population proportion by greater than 0.030.03?

Answer:

The probability that the sample proportion will differ from the population proportion by greater than 0.03 is 0.009.

Step-by-step explanation:

According to the Central limit theorem, if from an unknown population large samples of sizes n > 30, are selected and the sample proportion for each sample is computed then the sampling distribution of sample proportion follows a Normal distribution.

The mean of this sampling distribution of sample proportion is:

 \mu_{\hat p}=p

The standard deviation of this sampling distribution of sample proportion is:

 \sigma_{\hat p}=\sqrt{\frac{p(1-p)}{n}}

As the sample size is large, i.e. <em>n</em> = 492 > 30, the central limit theorem can be used to approximate the sampling distribution of sample proportion by the normal distribution.

The mean and standard deviation of the sampling distribution of sample proportion are:

\mu_{\hat p}=p=0.07\\\\\sigma_{\hat p}=\sqrt{\frac{p(1-p)}{n}}=\sqrt{\frac{0.07(1-0.07)}{492}}=0.012

Compute the probability that the sample proportion will differ from the population proportion by greater than 0.03 as follows:

P(|\hat p-p|>0.03)=P(|\frac{\hat p-p}{\sigma_{\hat p}}|>\frac{0.03}{0.012})

                           =P(|Z|>2.61)\\\\=1-P(|Z|\leq 2.61)\\\\=1-P(-2.61\leq Z\leq 2.61)\\\\=1-[P(Z\leq 2.61)-P(Z\leq -2.61)]\\\\=1-0.9955+0.0045\\\\=0.0090

Thus, the probability that the sample proportion will differ from the population proportion by greater than 0.03 is 0.009.

What is the equation of a line with a slope of -2 that passes through the point (-2,12)?
slavikrds [6]

Answer:

y=-2x + 8 which is the required equation

Which is option C

Step-by-step explanation:

Given:

Slope = m = -2

Given points are ( -2,12)

Which is

x = -2 and y =12

TO find:

Equation of line passing through these points = ?

Solution:

The point slope form of a line is

y = mx + c

Here we don't know the value of c

To find it

Putting y = 12 , x= -2 and y = -2 in the given equation

y = mx + c

Putting values it becomes

12 = (-2)*(-2) + c

12 = 4 + c

Subtracting 4 from both sides

12-4 = 4 -4 + c

8 = c

Now we have

m = -2 and c= 8

So equation of a line is given by

y = mx + c

Putting value of m and c

y = -2*x + 8

y=-2x + 8 which is the required equation
