a fair number cube labeld 1,2,3,4,5,6 is rolled a hundred times. about how many times could you expect to roll a three?

1 answer:

3 0

So probability is (desired outcomes)/(total possitlble outcomes)
desired is 1 since 3 appaears once on the cube
6 total possible

so probaity of rolling a3 is 1/6

100 times
100 times 1/6=100/6=16 and 2/3 times
round up
17 times

Inscribe a circle in a unit square and to r= 1000 random.

Oduvanchick [21]

Step-by-step explanation:

area of square = 1

area of a circle in square = $\pi r^2 = \pi *(1/2)^2 = \frac{\pi }{4}$

bu estimate $p^ = X/n = 760/1000 = 0.76Therefore, 
[tex]\frac{\pi }{4} \approx 0.76$

$\pi \approx 0.76*4 =3.04$

b) if n tend to infinity

$\pi will approach 3.14$

My brother wants to estimate the proportion of Canadians who own their house.What sample size should be obtained if he wants the

AVprozaik [17]

Answer:

a) $n=\frac{0.675(1-0.675)}{(\frac{0.02}{1.64})^2}=1475.07$

And rounded up we have that n=1476

b) $n=\frac{0.5(1-0.5)}{(\frac{0.02}{1.64})^2}=1681$

And rounded up we have that n=1681

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".

The population proportion have the following distribution

$p \sim N(p,\sqrt{\frac{\hat p(1-\hat p)}{n}})$

The margin of error for the proportion interval is given by this formula:

$ME=z_{\alpha/2}\sqrt{\frac{\hat p (1-\hat p)}{n}}$ (a)

If solve n from equation (a) we got:

$n=\frac{\hat p (1-\hat p)}{(\frac{ME}{z})^2}$ (b)

Part a

In order to find the critical value we need to take in count that we are finding the interval for a proportion, so on this case we need to use the z distribution. Since our interval is at 90% of confidence, our significance level would be given by $\alpha=1-0.9=0.1$ and $\alpha/2 =0.05$ . And the critical value would be given by:
