Answer:

c.A 90% confidence level and a sample size of 300 subjects.

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 1-\alpha, we have the confidence interval with a margin of error of:

M = z\sqrt{\frac{\pi(1-\pi)}{n}}

In which

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

In this problem

The proportions are the same for all the options, so we are going to write our margins of error as functions of \sqrt{\pi(1-\pi)}

So

a.A 99% confidence level and a sample size of 50 subjects.

n = 50

99% confidence interval

So \alpha = 0.01, z is the value of Z that has a pvalue of 1 - \frac{0.01}{2} = 0.995, so Z = 2.575.

The margin of error is

M = z\sqrt{\frac{\pi(1-\pi)}{n}} = \frac{2.575}{\sqrt{50}}\sqrt{\pi(1-\pi)} = 0.3642\sqrt{\pi(1-\pi)}

b.A 90% confidence level and a sample size of 50 subjects.

n = 50

90% confidence interval

So \alpha = 0.1, z is the value of Z that has a pvalue of 1 - \frac{0.1}{2} = 0.95, so Z = 1.645.

The margin of error is

M = z\sqrt{\frac{\pi(1-\pi)}{n}} = \frac{1.645}{\sqrt{50}}\sqrt{\pi(1-\pi)} = 0.2623\sqrt{\pi(1-\pi)}

c.A 90% confidence level and a sample size of 300 subjects.

n = 300

90% confidence interval

So \alpha = 0.1, z is the value of Z that has a pvalue of 1 - \frac{0.1}{2} = 0.95, so Z = 1.645.

The margin of error is

M = z\sqrt{\frac{\pi(1-\pi)}{n}} = \frac{1.645}{\sqrt{300}}\sqrt{\pi(1-\pi)} = 0.0950\sqrt{\pi(1-\pi)}

This produces smallest margin of error.

d.A 99% confidence level and a sample size of 300 subjects.

n = 300

99% confidence interval

So \alpha = 0.01, z is the value of Z that has a pvalue of 1 - \frac{0.01}{2} = 0.995, so Z = 2.575.

The margin of error is

M = z\sqrt{\frac{\pi(1-\pi)}{n}} = \frac{2.575}{\sqrt{300}}\sqrt{\pi(1-\pi)} = 0.1487\sqrt{\pi(1-\pi)}

It took a submarine 30 seconds to sink 225 feet, moving at a constant speed. The captain wants to know the submarine's speed.
Vladimir [108]

Answer:

Speed per second= 7.5 feet per second

Step-by-step explanation:

Giving the following information:

We have a distance (225 feet), and a time (30 seconds). Also, we know that the speed was constant.

<u>All we have to do is divide the distance by the time and determine the speed per second:</u>

Speed per second= distance / time

Speed per second= 225 / 30

Speed per second= 7.5 feet per second

Put these numbers in order from greatest to least.<br> 1 6/8,-10/25,-18/25,1
goldenfox [79]

\textsf{Hey there!}

\textsf{Put these numbers in order from GREATEST to LEAST}

\bullet{\mathsf{ \ 1\dfrac{6}{8}}}

\bullet\mathsf{\ -\dfrac{10}{25}}

\bullet{\mathsf{\ -\dfrac{18}{25}}}

\bullet{\textsf{ 1}}

\star\textsf{ We know that fractions, decimals, negatives are BELOW 0 (on the left} \textsf{of 0)}

\star\textsf{ \& we also know that positives and real numbers is/are ABOVE 0 (to the right} \textsf{of 0)}

\textsf{Now we can answer your question}

\blacksquare \ \mathsf{1\dfrac{6}{8} = \dfrac{14}{8} = 1.75}

\blacksquare\ \mathsf{-\dfrac{10}{25} = -0.40}

\blacksquare\ \mathsf{- \dfrac{18}{25} = -0.72}

\blacksquare \ \mathsf{1 = 1}

\textsf{Look carefully at the stuff converted to the decimal or regular number \& } \textsf{you will  have your answer from \underline{greatest} to \underline{least}}

\boxed{\textsf{If you solved correctly you  SHOULD have: \boxed{\mathsf{\dfrac{14}{8}, \ 1, \ - \dfrac{10}{25}\ ,\  -\dfrac{18}{25}}}}}\checkmark

\textsf{Good luck on your assignment and enjoy your day!}
