In an article regarding interracial dating and marriage recently appeared in a newspaper. Of 1719 randomly selected adults, 311

identified themselves as Latinos, 322 identified themselves as blacks, 251 identified themselves as Asians, and 775 identified themselves as whites. Among Asians, 79% would welcome a white person into their families, 71% would welcome a Latino, and 66% would welcome a black person.
NOTE: If you are using a Student's t-distribution, you may assume that the underlying population is normally distributed. (In general, you must first prove that assumption, though.)
Construct the 95% confidence intervals for the three Asian responses.
1. Welcome a white person ( , )
2. Welcome a Latino ( , )
3. Welcome a Black person ( , )

Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:

Hello!

The parameter of interest in this exercise is the population proportion of Asians that would welcome a person of other races in their family. Using the race of the welcomed one as categorizer we can define 3 variables:

X₁: Number of Asians that would welcome a white person into their families.

X₂: Number of Asians that would welcome a Latino person into their families.

X₃: Number of Asians that would welcome a black person into their families.

Now since we are working with the population that identifies as "Asians" the sample size will be: n= 251

Since the sample size is large enough (n≥30) you can apply the Central Limit Theorem and approximate the variable distribution to normal.

Z_{1-\alpha /2}= Z_{0.975}= 1.965

1. 95% CI for Asians that would welcome a white person.

If 79% would welcome a white person, then the expected value is:

E(X)= n*p= 251*0.79= 198.29

And the Standard deviation is:

V(X)= n*p*(1-p)= 251*0.79*0.21=41.6409

√V(X)= 6.45

You can construct the interval as:

E(X)±Z₁₋α/₂*√V(X)

198.29±1.965*6.45

[185.62;210.96]

With a 95% confidence level, you'd expect that the interval [185.62; 210.96] contains the number of Asian people that would welcome a White person in their family.

2. 95% CI for Asians that would welcome a Latino person.

If 71% would welcome a Latino person, then the expected value is:

E(X)= n*p= 251*0.71= 178.21

And the Standard deviation is:

V(X)= n*p*(1-p)= 251*0.71*0.29= 51.6809

√V(X)= 7.19

You can construct the interval as:

E(X)±Z₁₋α/₂*√V(X)

178.21±1.965*7.19

[164.08; 192.34]

With a 95% confidence level, you'd expect that the interval [164.08; 192.34] contains the number of Asian people that would welcome a Latino person in their family.

3. 95% CI for Asians that would welcome a Black person.

If 66% would welcome a Black person, then the expected value is:

E(X)= n*p= 251*0.66= 165.66

And the Standard deviation is:

V(X)= n*p*(1-p)= 251*0.66*0.34= 56.3244

√V(X)= 7.50

You can construct the interval as:

E(X)±Z₁₋α/₂*√V(X)

165.66±1.965*7.50

[150.92; 180.40]

With a 95% confidence level, you'd expect that the interval [150.92; 180.40] contains the number of Asian people that would welcome a Black person in their family.

I hope it helps!

Please answer ASAP. The question is down below.
zheka24 [161]

Answer:  1) c    2) a     3) d

<u>Step-by-step explanation:</u>

\cos \theta = \dfrac{adjacent}{hypotenuse}\quad \\\\\\\cos 42.1=\dfrac{4.7}{x}\\\\\\x=\dfrac{4.7}{\cos 42.1}\\\\\\\large\boxed{x=6.33}\\

******************************************************************************************

Reference angle is the angle measurement from the x-axis.  <em>There is no such thing as a negative reference angle.</em>

-183°  is 3° from the x-axis so the reference angle is  \large\boxed{3^o}

*******************************************************************************************

Coterminal means the same angle location after one or more<em> </em>rotations either clockwise or counter-clockwise.

To find these angles, add <em>or subtract</em> 360° from the given angle to find one rotation, add <em>or subtract</em> 2(360°) from the given angle to find two rotations, etc.

To find ALL of the coterminals, add <em>or subtract</em> 360° as many times as the number of rotations.  Rotations can only be integers. In other words, you can only have ± 1, 2, 3, ... rotations. You cannot have a fraction of a rotation.

Given: 203°

Coterminal angles: 203° ± k360°, k ∈ <em>I</em>

Mashutka [201]

The illustration of the given mathematical elements is as in the attached images.

<h3>Illustration of mathematical elements</h3>

For line segments;

  • The beginning and end of the line are specified by the assigned alphabets.

However, for rays;

  • The ray is illustrated to originate from a point and span on from there till infinity.

For angles;

  • The alphabet in the middle of the set of 3 alphabets used to identify the angle represents the center point of where the angle is located.
