A. Zn=36, p=0.98, x=0
B. n=36, p=0.98, x=12
C. n=0, p=0.98, x=36

Answer:

B. n=36, p=0.98, x=12

Step-by-step explanation:

98% of bottles have the correct amount.

The probability is equal to 0.98

That is p = 0.98

A bottle of water is supposed to have 12 ounces.

That is the expected value is 12

X = 12

36 bottles has all bottles properly filled

The possible sample space is 36

N = 36

Answer:

B 12.68

Step-by-step explanation:

you will need to find the distance between each segment-

so the length of DC, CF, FE, ED

$d=\sqrt{(x_{2}-x_{1}) ^{2}+(y_{2}-y_{1}) ^{2} }$

DC:

D(-2,-1) C(-1,2)

$d=\sqrt{(-1--2)^{2} +(2--1)^{2} } \\d=\sqrt{1^{2}+3^{2} } \\d=\sqrt{10} =3.16$

CF:

C(-1,2) F(1,1)

$d=\sqrt{(1--1)^{2} +(1-2)^{2} } \\d=\sqrt{2^{2}+-1^{2} } \\d=\sqrt{4+1} \\d=\sqrt{x} 5=2.24$

FE

F(1,1) E(2,-2)

$d=\sqrt{(2-1)^{2} +(-2-1)^{2} } \\d=\sqrt{1^{2} +(-3)^{2} } \\d=\sqrt{1+9} \\d=\sqrt{10}= 3.16$

ED

E(2,-2) D(-2,-1)

$d=\sqrt{(-2-2)^{2} +(-1--2)^{2} } \\d=\sqrt{(-4)^{2}+1^{2} } \\d=\sqrt{16+1} \\d=\sqrt{17}= 4.12\\$

3.16+2.24+3.16+4.12= 12.68

Convert 3/11 to a decimal using long division

stepladder [879]

3/11 as a decimal is .27 repeating that means it has a line over the two and the seven but if you want to round it would be .3

At a large Midwestern university, a simple random sample of 100 entering freshmen in 1993 found that 20 of the sampled freshmen

Answer:

The 90% confidence interval for the difference of proportions is (0.01775,0.18225).

Step-by-step explanation:

Before building the confidence interval, we need to understand the central limit theorem and subtraction of normal variables.

Central Limit Theorem

The Central Limit Theorem establishes that, for a normally distributed random variable X, with mean $\mu$ and standard deviation $\sigma$ , the sampling distribution of the sample means with size n can be approximated to a normal distribution with mean $\mu$ and standard deviation $s = \frac{\sigma}{\sqrt{n}}$ .

For a skewed variable, the Central Limit Theorem can also be applied, as long as n is at least 30.

For a proportion p in a sample of size n, the sampling distribution of the sample proportion will be approximately normal with mean $\mu = p$ and standard deviation $s = \sqrt{\frac{p(1-p)}{n}}$

Subtraction between normal variables:

When two normal variables are subtracted, the mean is the difference of the means, while the standard deviation is the square root of the sum of the variances.

p1 -> 1993

20 out of 100, so:

$p_1 = \frac{20}{100} = 0.2$

$s_1 = \sqrt{\frac{0.2*0.8}{100}} = 0.04$

p2 -> 1997

10 out of 100, so:

$p_2 = \frac{10}{100} = 0.1$

$s_2 = \sqrt{\frac{0.1*0.9}{100}} = 0.03$

Distribution of p1 – p2:

$p = p_1 - p_2 = 0.2 - 0.1 = 0.1$

$s = \sqrt{s_1^2+s_2^2} = \sqrt{0.04^2 + 0.03^2} = 0.05$

Confidence interval:

$p \pm zs$

In which

z is the z-score that has a p-value of $1 - \frac{\alpha}{2}$ .

90% confidence level

So $\alpha = 0.1$ , z is the value of Z that has a p-value of $1 - \frac{0.1}{2} = 0.95$ , so $Z = 1.645$ .

The lower bound of the interval is:

$p - zs = 0.1 - 1.645*0.05 = 0.01775
$

The upper bound of the interval is:

$p + zs = 0.1 + 1.645*0.05 = 0.18225
$

The 90% confidence interval for the difference of proportions is (0.01775,0.18225).
