Answer:

132

Step-by-step explanation:

50 % means half

so 66 is half of whatever x is.

to find x you have to multiply 66 by 2 or add 66 to 66 which will give you 132 either way.

132 because 66x2=132

According to the Knot, 22% of couples meet online. Assume the sampling distribution of p follows a normal distribution and answe

Ann [662]

Using the <em>normal distribution and the central limit theorem</em>, we have that:

a) The sampling distribution is approximately normal, with mean 0.22 and standard error 0.0338.

b) There is a 0.1867 = 18.67% probability that in a random sample of 150 couples more than 25% met online.

c) There is a 0.2584 = 25.84% probability that in a random sample of 150 couples between 15% and 20% met online.

<h3>Normal Probability Distribution</h3>

In a normal distribution with mean $\mu$ and standard deviation $\sigma$ , the z-score of a measure X is given by:

$Z = \frac{X - \mu}{\sigma}$

It measures how many standard deviations the measure is from the mean.

After finding the z-score, we look at the z-score table and find the p-value associated with this z-score, which is the percentile of X.

By the Central Limit Theorem, for a proportion p in a sample of size n, the sampling distribution of sample proportion is approximately normal with mean $\mu = p$ and standard deviation $s = \sqrt{\frac{p(1 - p)}{n}}$ , as long as $np \geq 10$ and $n(1 - p) \geq 10$ .

In this problem:

22% of couples meet online, hence p = 0.22.

A sample of 150 couples is taken, hence n = 150.

Item a:

The mean and the standard error are given by:

$\mu = p = 0.22$

$s = \sqrt{\frac{p(1 - p)}{n}} = \sqrt{\frac{0.22(0.78)}{150}} = 0.0338$

The sampling distribution is approximately normal, with mean 0.22 and standard error 0.0338.

Item b:

The probability is <u>one subtracted by the p-value of Z when X = 0.25</u>, hence:

$Z = \frac{X - \mu}{\sigma}$

By the Central Limit Theorem:

$Z = \frac{X - \mu}{s}$

$Z = \frac{0.25 - 0.22}{0.0338}$

Z = 0.89

Z = 0.89 has a p-value of 0.8133.

1 - 0.8133 = 0.1867.

There is a 0.1867 = 18.67% probability that in a random sample of 150 couples more than 25% met online.

Item c:

The probability is the <u>p-value of Z when X = 0.2 subtracted by the p-value of Z when X = 0.15</u>, hence:

X = 0.2:

$Z = \frac{X - \mu}{s}$

$Z = \frac{0.2 - 0.22}{0.0338}$

Z = -0.59

Z = -0.59 has a p-value of 0.2776.

X = 0.15:

$Z = \frac{X - \mu}{s}$

$Z = \frac{0.15 - 0.22}{0.0338}$

Z = -2.07

Z = -2.07 has a p-value of 0.0192.

0.2776 - 0.0192 = 0.2584.

There is a 0.2584 = 25.84% probability that in a random sample of 150 couples between 15% and 20% met online.

The slope of y = 3x - 4 on the interval [2, 5] is 3 and the slope of y = 2x^2-4x - 2 on the interval [2, 5] is 10

<h3>How to determine the slope?</h3>

The interval is given as:

x = 2 to x = 5

The slope is calculated as:

$m = \frac{y_2 -y_1}{x_2-x_1}$

Substitute 2 and 5 for x

y = 3*2 - 4 = 2

y = 3*5 - 4 = 11

So, we have:

$m = \frac{11 - 2}{5 - 2}$

$m = \frac{9}{3}$

Divide

m = 3

Hence, the slope of y = 3x - 4 on the interval [2, 5] is 3

Substitute 2 and 5 for x

y = 2 * 2^2 - 4 * 2 - 2 = -2

y = 2 * 5^2 - 4 * 5 - 2 = 28

So, we have:

$m = \frac{28 + 2}{5 - 2}$

$m = \frac{30}{3}$

Divide

m = 10

Hence, the slope of y = 2x^2-4x - 2 on the interval [2, 5] is 10
