Suppose that a jewelry store tracked the amount of emeralds they sold each week to more accurately estimate how many emeralds to

RUDIKE [14]

Answer:

The confidence interval for the mean is given by the following formula:

$\bar X \pm t_{\alpha/2}\frac{s}{\sqrt{n}}$ (1)

And for this case the 95% confidence interval is given by (2.13; 2.37)

We have a point of estimate for the sample mean with this formula:

$\bar X = \frac{Upper+ Lower}{2}= \frac{3.37+2.13}{2}= 2.75$

And for the margin of error we have the following estimation:

$ME= \frac{Upper -Lower}{2}= \frac{3.37-2.13}{2}= 0.62$

Step-by-step explanation:

Previous concepts

A confidence interval is "a range of values that’s likely to include a population value with a certain degree of confidence. It is often expressed a % whereby a population means lies between an upper and lower interval".

The margin of error is the range of values below and above the sample statistic in a confidence interval.

Normal distribution, is a "probability distribution that is symmetric about the mean, showing that data near the mean are more frequent in occurrence than data far from the mean".

$\bar X$ represent the sample mean

$\mu$ population mean (variable of interest)

s represent the sample standard deviation

n represent the sample size

Solution to the problem

The confidence interval for the mean is given by the following formula:

$\bar X \pm t_{\alpha/2}\frac{s}{\sqrt{n}}$ (1)

And for this case the 95% confidence interval is given by (2.13; 2.37)

We have a point of estimate for the sample mean with this formula:

$\bar X = \frac{Upper+ Lower}{2}= \frac{3.37+2.13}{2}= 2.75$

And for the margin of error we have the following estimation:

$ME= \frac{Upper -Lower}{2}= \frac{3.37-2.13}{2}= 0.62$

A researcher is interested in determining if the more than two thirds of students would support making the Tuesday before Thanks

klio [65]

Answer:

a. p = the population proportion of UF students who would support making the Tuesday before Thanksgiving break a holiday.

Step-by-step explanation:

For each student, there are only two possible outcomes. Either they are in favor of making the Tuesday before Thanksgiving a holiday, or they are against. This means that we can solve this problem using concepts of the binomial probability distribution.

Binomial probability distribution

The binomial probability is the probability of exactly x successes on n repeated trials, and X can only have two outcomes.

$P(X = x) = C_{n,x}.p^{x}.(1-p)^{n-x}$

In which $C_{n,x}$ is the number of different combinatios of x objects from a set of n elements, given by the following formula.

$C_{n,x} = \frac{n!}{x!(n-x)!}$

And p is the probability of X happening.

So, the binomial probability distribution has two parameters, n and p.

In this problem, we have that $n = 1000$ and $p = \frac{700}{1000} = 0.7$ . So the parameter is

a. p = the population proportion of UF students who would support making the Tuesday before Thanksgiving break a holiday.

A four year old is going to spin around with his arms stretched out 100 times. From past experience, his father knows it takes a

Sati [7]

Answer:

$P(X \geq0.55) \leq 0.22$

Step-by-step explanation:

Using central Limit Theorem (CLT), The sum of 100 random variables;

$Y=X_1+X_2+...+X_{100}$ is approximately normally distributed with

Y ~ N (100 × $\frac{1}{3^2}$ ) = N ( 50, $\frac{100}{9}$ )

The approximate probability that it will take this child over 55 seconds to complete spinning can be determined as follows;

N ( 50, $\frac{100}{9}$ )

$P(Y>55) =P(Z>\frac{55-50}{10/3})$

$P(Y>55) =P(Z>1.5)$

$P(Y>55) =\phi (-1.5)$

$P(Y>55) =0.0668$

Using Chebyshev's inequality:

$P(|X-\mu\geq K)\leq \frac{\sigma^2}{K^2}$

Let assume that X has a symmetric distribution:

Then:

$2P(X-\mu\geq K)\leq) \frac{\sigma^2}{K^2}$

$2P(X \geq \mu+K)\leq) \frac{\sigma^2}{K^2}$

$2P(X\geq0.5+0.05)\leq \frac{\frac{1}{\frac{3^2}{100} } }{0.05^2}$ where: ( $\sigma^2 = \frac{1}{3^2/100}$ )

$P(X \geq0.55) \leq 0.22$

Oksanka [162]

Answer:

It is 90º

Step-by-step explanation:

Looking at the picture, we realize that the angle direcly beside it, EGD, is 90º. Now, both angles form a straight line, which equals 180º. 180-90= 90º.
