Terrence randomly sampled 400 people and asked them if they prefer spring or fall. The results of his sample yielded an estimate

d population proportion of 43% who prefer spring. Deena randomly sampled 1,200 people and asked them if they prefer spring or fall. The results of her sample also yielded an estimated population proportion of 43% who prefer spring.
If Terrence and Deena use the same confidence level, which statement best describes the results of their margin of error calculations?

Terrence’s margin of error will be exactly three times as large as Deena’s.
Deena’s margin of error is half the amount of Terrence’s.
If Terrence samples 800 more people, his margin of error will be the same as Deena’s.
If Deena samples 400 fewer people, her margin of error would be exactly half the amount of Terrence’s.

Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:

Margin of error is calculated as

Critical value multiplied by Std error of sample

= Critical value multiplied by square root of (variance/sample size)

Hence Margin of error

=z/t*(\frac{\sigma}{\sqrt{n} } )

Thus square root of n is inversely proportion to margin of error.

Thus we have margin of error of Terrena would be square root of 3 times that of Deena

Thus option a, b and d are wrong

C is right because when sample sizes equal, the margin of error also would be equal.

on edge it's C. If Terrence samples 800 more people, his margin of error will be the same as Deena’s.

A pilot was scheduled to depart at 4:00 pm, but due to air traffic, her departure has been delayed by 15 minutes. Air traffic co
Sladkaya [172]

Answer:

y = (1/2)x + 15

Step-by-step explanation:

First, we need to identify the parts of the problem that we already know:

1) The pilot was originally scheduled to depart at 1600 (4:00 pm).

2) The pilot's departure was delayed by 15 minutes.

3) the traffic control approved a new flight plan that would allow the pilot to travel to her destination two times faster than her original flight plan.

For the problem's sake, let us pretend that the pilot's original flight plan was going to take two hours. Had he/she left at 4:00 pm, the pilot would have landed at 6:00 pm.

With a delay of 15 minutes, the duration of the flight would still remain constant, so the pilot would arrive at their destination two hours later, at 6:15 pm.

With the new flight plan, the pilot's travel time would be cut in half, so it would be 1/2 of x (time, in minutes, of original flight). Thus, her new flight time would only be one hour (60 minutes).

So, now we have to subtract 1/2 from the original flight time, as well as adding the 15 minute delay for departure. Now we can create a formula:

y = (1/2)x + 15

Y equals the total amount of time (in minutes) that it would take for the plane to leave. We divide x (total time of original flight) by 2, because her new flight plan will be twice as fast. Then we have to take into account the extra 15 minute delay!
