X + 0.12x = 31360
1.12x = 31360
x = 31360/1.12
x = 28,000 <===

Suppose that you take a sample of 250 adults. If the population proportion of adults who watch news videos is 0.58​, what is the
aliina [53]

Answer:

0.36% probability that fewer than half in your sample will watch news​ videos

Step-by-step explanation:

To solve this question, i am going to use the binomial approximation to the normal.

Binomial probability distribution

Probability of exactly x sucesses on n repeated trials, with p probability.

Can be approximated to a normal distribution, using the expected value and the standard deviation.

The expected value of the binomial distribution is:

E(X) = np

The standard deviation of the binomial distribution is:

\sqrt{V(X)} = \sqrt{np(1-p)}

Normal probability distribution

Problems of normally distributed samples can be solved using the z-score formula.

In a set with mean \mu and standard deviation \sigma, the zscore of a measure X is given by:

Z = \frac{X - \mu}{\sigma}

The Z-score measures how many standard deviations the measure is from the mean. After finding the Z-score, we look at the z-score table and find the p-value associated with this z-score. This p-value is the probability that the value of the measure is smaller than X, that is, the percentile of X. Subtracting 1 by the pvalue, we get the probability that the value of the measure is greater than X.

When we are approximating a binomial distribution to a normal one, we have that \mu = E(X), \sigma = \sqrt{V(X)}.

In this problem, we have that:

n = 250, p = 0.58

So

\mu = E(X) = 250*0.58 = 145

\sigma = \sqrt{V(X)} = \sqrt{np(1-p)} = \sqrt{250*0.58*0.42} = 7.80

If the population proportion of adults who watch news videos is 0.58​, what is the probability that fewer than half in your sample will watch news​ videos

Half: 0.5*250 = 125

Less than half is 124 or less

So this is the pvalue of Z when X = 124

Z = \frac{X - \mu}{\sigma}

Z = \frac{124 - 145}{7.8}

Z = -2.69

Z = -2.69 has a pvalue of 0.0036

0.36% probability that fewer than half in your sample will watch news​ videos

Find the measure of angle A.<br><br> 71° x+49<br> +72
slega [8]

Answer: 66 degrees

Step-by-step explanation:

Sum of the angle measures is 180, so:

71 + x + 49 + x + 72 = 180

2x + 192 = 180

2x = -12

x = -6

Meaning the measure of angle A = -6 + 72 = 66 deg.
