The distance between planets in two stellar systems is 1.6x10^6 miles. If a spaceship is able to travel at 8,400 miles per hour,

will it be able to make the journey in under a year? Justify your answer with mathematical reasoning.

Answer:

Yes it will be able to make the journey in under a year.

Step-by-step explanation:

To find out how many hours it will take 1.6*10^2 and divide by 8400

\frac{1.6*10^2}{8400} = 190.476 hr

So it will take the space ship 190.476 hours to make the trip.

Next, ask our self, how many hours are in a year?

To find out multiply 365 * 24 = 8760 hr

The 365 = number of day in a year. The 24 = number of hours in a day.

Knowing how many hours there are in a year and how long the trip will take tells us that the journey can be made under a year since there are 8760 hours in a year and we know we can make it there in 190.476 hr traveling at 8400 mph

Assume that a sample is used to estimate a population proportion p. find the margin of error e that corresponds to the given sta
Leno4ka [110]

Let p be the proportion. Let c be the given confidence level , n be the sample size.

Given: p=0.3, n=1180, c=0.99

The formula to find the Margin of error is

ME = z _{\alpha/2}  \sqrt{\frac{p*(1-p)}{n}}

Where z (α/2) is critical value of z.

P(Z < z) = α/2

where α/2 = (1- 0.99) /2 = 0.005

P(Z < z) = 0.005

So in z score table look for probability exactly or close to 0.005 . There is no exact 0.005 probability value in z score table. However there two close values 0.0051 and 0.0049 . It means our required 0.005 value lies between these two probability values.

The z score corresponding to 0.0051 is -2.57 and 0.0049 is -2.58. So the required z score will be average of -2.57 and -2.58

(-2.57) + (-2.58) = -5.15

-5.15/2 = -2.575

For computing margin of error consider positive z score value which is 2.575

The margin of error will be

ME = z _{\alpha/2}  \sqrt{\frac{p*(1-p)}{n}}

= 2.575  \sqrt{\frac{0.30*(1-0.3)}{1180}}

= 2.575 * 0.0133

ME = 0.0342

The margin of error is 0.0342
