A soccer ball manufacturer wants to estimate the mean circumference of soccer balls within 0.1 in. Determine the minimum sample

leva [86]

Answer:

$n=(\frac{z_{\alpha/2} \sigma}{ME})^2$ (2)

The critical value for 95% of confidence interval now can be founded using the normal distribution. And in excel we can use this formla to find it:"=-NORM.INV(0.025,0,1)", and we got $z_{\alpha/2}=1.96$ , replacing into formula (2) we got:

$n=(\frac{1.96(0.25)}{0.1})^2 =24.01$

So the answer for this case would be n=25 rounded up to the nearest integer

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".

$\bar X$ represent the sample mean for the sample

$\mu$ population mean (variable of interest)

$\sigma=0.25$ represent the population standard deviation

n represent the sample size (variable of interest)

Solution to the problem

The confidence interval for the mean is given by the following formula:

$\bar X \pm z_{\alpha/2}\frac{\sigma}{\sqrt{n}}$

The margin of error is given by this formula:

$ME=z_{\alpha/2}\frac{\sigma}{\sqrt{n}}$ (1)

And on this case we have that ME =0.1 and we are interested in order to find the value of n, if we solve n from equation (1) we got:

$n=(\frac{z_{\alpha/2} \sigma}{ME})^2$ (2)

The critical value for 95% of confidence interval now can be founded using the normal distribution. And in excel we can use this formla to find it:"=-NORM.INV(0.025,0,1)", and we got $z_{\alpha/2}=1.96$ , replacing into formula (2) we got:

$n=(\frac{1.96(0.25)}{0.1})^2 =24.01$

So the answer for this case would be n=25 rounded up to the nearest integer

The volumes of two similar solids are 729 inches3 and 125 inches3. If the surface area of the smaller solid is 74.32 inches2, wh

tangare [24]

This is the concept of scales factors, given that two similar solids with 729 inches^3 and 125 inches^3. The volume scale factor will be given by:
(volume of larger solid)/(volume of smaller solid)
=729/125
but
linear scale factor=(volume scale factor)^1/3
thus the linear scale factor will be:
(729/125)^1/3
=9/5
Also, area scale factor will be given by:
area scale factor=(linear scale factor)^2
=(9/5)^2
=81/25
The area of the larger solid will be given by:
let the area be A;
A/74.32=81/25
thus
A=81/25*74.32
A=240.7968 inches^2
