What is 8.239 rounded to the tenths place.

Based on historical data in Oxnard college, we believe that 37% of freshmen do not visit their counselors regularly. For this ye

Answer:

A sample size of 1031 is required.

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 of $1-\alpha$ , we have the following confidence interval of proportions.

$\pi \pm z\sqrt{\frac{\pi(1-\pi)}{n}}$

In which

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

The margin of error is of:

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

37% of freshmen do not visit their counselors regularly.

This means that $\pi = 0.37$

98% confidence level

So $\alpha = 0.02$ , z is the value of Z that has a pvalue of $1 - \frac{0.02}{2} = 0.99$ , so $Z = 2.327$ .

You would like to be 98% confident that your estimate is within 3.5% of the true population proportion. How large of a sample size is required?

A sample size of n is required.

n is found when M = 0.035. So

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

$0.035 = 2.327\sqrt{\frac{0.37*0.63}{n}}$

$0.035\sqrt{n} = 2.327\sqrt{0.37*0.63}$

$\sqrt{n} = \frac{2.327\sqrt{0.37*0.63}}{0.035}$

$(\sqrt{n})^2 = (\frac{2.327\sqrt{0.37*0.63}}{0.035})^2$

$n = 1030.4$

Rounding up:

A sample size of 1031 is required.

Seven different names were put into a hat. A name chosen 100 times. And the name Michael is chosen 9 times. What is experimental

iris [78.8K]

Answer:

Experimental probability = 9 / 100

Theoretical probability = 1/7

Step-by-step explanation:

The experimental probability of an event is written as :

P = number of times event occur / total number of trials

Experimental probability is based on the outcome of an experiment that has taken place.

Theoretical probability is based on expected outcome of an event.

P = number of expected or required outcomes / total possible outcomes

Experimental probability of choosing the name Michael is :

Number of times Michael is chosen / number of trials

Experimental probability = 9 / 100 = 0.09

Theoretical probability of choosing michael:

Number of names in hat = 7

Number of names called Michael in hat = required outcome = 1

P = 1 / 7

If the number of names in hat was different from 7, then the theoretical probability will change.

Also, if the number of times a name was chosen was different from 100, then number of trials will also change and hence, the experimental probability.
