Answer: a) 15, b) 1.

Step-by-step explanation:

A researcher studying public opinion of proposed social security changes obtains a simple random sample of 35 adult Americans and asks them whether or not they support the proposed changes. To say that the distribution of the sample proportion of adults who respond yes, is approximately normal, how many more Americans does the researcher need to sample in the following cases?

(a)    10% of all adult Americans support the changes

Here, np>5\ and\ n(1-p)>5

And , p=0.10

So, consider the equality, to find the value of 'n'.

np=5\\\\n\times 0.10=5\\\\n=\dfrac{5}{0.10}\\\\n=50

So, there are 50-35=15 more adult Americans needed.

(b)   15% of all adult Americans supports the changes

Here, p=0.15

So, again we get that

np=5\\\\n\times 0.15=5\\\\n=\dfrac{5}{0.15}\\\\n=33.33\\\\n\approx 34

So, there are 35-34=1 more adult Americans needed.

Hence, a) 15, b) 1.

Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:

I think it is a strangely worded question as they only refer to the larger gear turning.

I believe that this is what they are going for.

Number of teeth passing in each revolution

The Numbers match when the large gear turns two times as the smaller gear turns three times.

diamong [38]
96% is the answer 100%/x%=125/120
(100/x)*x=(125/120)*x       - we multiply both sides of the equation by x
100=1.04166666667*x       - we divide both sides of the equation by (1.04166666667) to get x
100/1.04166666667=x
96=x
x=96
