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.

SOMEONE PLEASE HELP ME 3/4(x+4)=1/4(x+8)
Troyanec [42]

Answer:

x=-2

Step-by-step explanation:

To solve this equation, we can use PEMDAS or Order of Operations.

Parenthesis

Exponents

Multiplication>Division

Addition>Subtraction

Using the various properties can also help make the equation easier.

First, solve for parenthesis using the distributive property.

Our equation is now : 3/4x+3=1/4x+2

Now, subtract 2 on both sides, to cancel out the positive 2 on the right.

3/4x+1=1/4x

Now subtract 3/4x from both sides.

1=-2/4x

Finally, to isolate x, divide both sides by -2/4

1/-2/4=-2

x=-2

Hope this helps!

Marcus and Jeremy both evaluated the expression −52 + 3. Marcus said the answer was −22. Jeremy said the answer was 28. Who is c
Artyom0805 [142]

Answer:

Alright, the answer to the equation -52+3= -49

Step-by-step explanation:

I don't know how the heck Marcus and Jeremy got -22 and 28 but both are wrong. If there were a picture so I could see their work, I would be able to figure it out.

Anyways, The math is:

-52 + 3 which is pretty much 52-3 and then the answer has a negative sign.

-52 goes up 3 because technically the negative sign is down. Counting up 3 from 52 equals -49.
