Answer:

The % growth rate is 15.8%.

Step-by-step explanation:

Let the function is given by $f(w) = a(b)^{w}$ , where f(w) is the number of a specific product produced after w weeks.

Now, given for w = 0, f(0) = 190 = a

So, the function becomes $f(w) = 190(b)^{w}$ ............. (1)

Now, it is also give that at w = 1, f(1) = 220.

So, from equation (1) we get,

$220 = 190 (b)^{1} = 190b$

⇒ b = 1.15789.

Now, b = 1 + r

⇒ 1.15789 = 1 + r

⇒ r = 0.15789

Therefore, the % growth rate is 0.15789 × 100% = 15.8% (Approx.)

A survey of 865 voters in one state reveals that 408 favor approval of an issue before the legislature. Construct the 95% confid

katrin [286]

Answer:

The 95% confidence interval for the true proportion of all voters in the state who favor approval is (0.4384, 0.5050).

Step-by-step explanation:

In a sample with a number n of people surveyed with a probability of a success of $\pi$ , and a confidence level of $1-\alpha$ , we have the following confidence interval of proportions.

$\pi \pm z\sqrt{\frac{\pi(1-\pi)}{n}}$

In which

z is the zscore that has a pvalue of $1 - \frac{\alpha}{2}$ .

For this problem, we have that:

$n = 865, \pi = \frac{408}{865} = 0.4717$

95% confidence level

So $\alpha = 0.05$ , z is the value of Z that has a pvalue of $1 - \frac{0.05}{2} = 0.975$ , so $Z = 1.96$ .

The lower limit of this interval is:

$\pi - z\sqrt{\frac{\pi(1-\pi)}{n}} = 0.4717 - 1.96\sqrt{\frac{0.4717*0.5283}{865}} = 0.4384$

The upper limit of this interval is:

$\pi + z\sqrt{\frac{\pi(1-\pi)}{n}} = 0.4717 + 1.96\sqrt{\frac{0.4717*0.5283}{865}} = 0.5050$

The 95% confidence interval for the true proportion of all voters in the state who favor approval is (0.4384, 0.5050).

A storage tank will have a circular base of radius r and a height of r. The tank can be either cylindrical or hemispherical (ha

Neko [114]

Answer:

Volume: $\frac{2}{3}\pi r^3$

Ratio: $\frac{2}{9}r$

Step-by-step explanation:

First of all, we need to find the volume of the hemispherical tank.

The volume of a sphere is given by:

$V=\frac{4}{3}\pi r^3$

where

r is the radius of the sphere

V is the volume

Here, we have a hemispherical tank: a hemisphere is exactly a sphere cut in a half, so its volume is half that of the sphere:

$V'=\frac{V}{2}=\frac{\frac{4}{3}\pi r^3}{2}=\frac{2}{3}\pi r^3$

Now we want to find the ratio between the volume of the hemisphere and its surface area.

The surface area of a sphere is

$A=4 \pi r^2$

For a hemisphere, the area of the curved part of the surface is therefore half of this value, so $2\pi r^2$ . Moreover, we have to add the surface of the base, which is $\pi r^2$ . So the total surface area of the hemispherical tank is
