Answer:

A) Interval estimate for those that want to get out earlier = (35%) ± (4%) = (31%, 39%)

Interval estimate for those that want to get out later = (39%) ± (4%) = (35%, 43%)

B) The group that wants to get out of school earlier can win after all the votes are counted if their true population proportion takes on a value that is higher than the closest true population proportion (for the group that wants to get out of school later)

That is, in the (31%, 39%) and (35%, 43%) obtained in (a), a range of (35.1%, 39%) and (35%, 38.9%) show how possible that the group that wants to get out of school earlier can win after all the votes are counted.

Step-by-step explanation:

The Interval estimate for the proportion is basically an interval of range of values where the true population proportion can be found with a certain level of confidence.

Mathematically,

Interval estimate = (Sample proportion) ± (Margin of error)

Margin of Error is the width of the confidence interval about the proportion.

a) Find the interval estimates

i) for those that want to get out earlier and

ii) those that want to get out later.

i) Sample proportion of those that want to get out earlier = 35%

Margin of Error = 4%

Interval estimate for those that want to get out earlier = (35%) ± (4%) = (31%, 39%)

ii) Sample proportion of those that want to get out later = 39%

Margin of Error = 4%

Interval estimate for those that want to get out later = (39%) ± (4%) = (35%, 43%)

b) Explain how it would be possible for the group that wants to get out of school earlier to win after all the votes are counted.

Since the interval estimates represent the range of values that the true population proportion can take on for each group that prefer a particular option, the group that wants to get out of school earlier van have their proportion take on values between 31% and 39%. If their true population takes on a value that is highest (which is very possible from the interval estimate), and the group with the highest proportion in the sample, (the group that wants to get out of school later, whose true population proportion can take between 35% and 43%) has a true population proportion that is less than that of the group that wants to get out of school earlier, then, the group that wants to get out of school earlier can win after all the votes are counted.

A graduate school plans to increase its enrollment capacity by developing its facilities and the programs it offers. Their enrol
kap26 [50]

Answer:

4.4 years

Step-by-step explanation:

Next time, please share the answer choices.

In this case, the beginning enrollment capacity was 120.  The rate of increase was 3.00, the terminal enrollment cap 3,240.  We let t represent the number of years:

3,240 students = (120 students)(3.00)^t

We need to solve this for t, the number of years required before enrollment will hit 3,240 students.

Solve 3240 = 120(3)^t for t:

Divide both sides by 120, obtaining 27.

Then we have

127 = 3^t

Logarithms are the best tool to use here to find t.  Take the natural log of both sides:

log 127 = t log 3.  Solving for t:  t = (log 127) / (log 3), or t = 2.104 / 0.477 = 4.41

Thus, starting at 120 students, enrollment reached 3,240 students in 4.4 years.

Answer:

96 cm²

Step-by-step explanation:

The lateral surface area (A) is the sum of the areas of the 4 slant faces.

The faces are triangular with area \frac{1}{2} bh , thus

A = 4 × \frac{1}{2} × 8 × 6 = 2 × 48 = 96 cm²

You have 5 55 reindeer, Bloopin, Rudy, Ezekiel, Prancer, and Balthazar, and you want to have 3 33 fly your sleigh. You always ha
sweet-ann [11.9K]

Answer:

60 different ways.

Step-by-step explanation:

We have been given that you have 5 reindeer, Bloopin, Rudy, Ezekiel, Prancer, and Balthazar, and you want to have 3 fly your sleigh. You always have your reindeer fly in a single-file line. We are asked to find the number of ways in which we can arrange reindeer.

We will use permutations to solve our given problem.

The number of way to choose r objects from a set of n objects is ^nP_r=\frac{n!}{(n-r)!}.

Upon substituting our given values in permutations formula, we will get:

^5P_3=\frac{5!}{(5-3)!}

^5P_3=\frac{5!}{2!}

^5P_3=\frac{5\times 4\times 3\times 2!}{2!}

^5P_3=5\times 4\times 3

^5P_3=60

Therefore, you can arrange your reindeer in 60 different ways.
