After an extensive advertising campaign, the manager of a company expects the proportion of potential customers that recognize a

new product to be at least 60%. She samples 120 potential consumers from the population of 1600 potential customers, and finds that 54 recognize this product. What is the probability of getting the sample proportion that she obtained (or one that is lower) if the true population proportion is .60? What type of problem is this?

Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:

Hello!

The study variable is:

X: number of customers that recognize a new product out of 120.

There are two possible recordable outcomes for this variable, the customer can either "recognize the new product" or " don't recognize the new product". The number of trials is fixed, assuming that each customer is independent of the others and the probability of success is the same for all customers, p= 0.6, then we can say this variable has a binomial distribution.

The sample proportion obtained is:

p'= 54/120= 0.45

Considering that the sample size is large enough (n≥30) you can apply the Central Limit Theorem and approximate the distribution of the sample proportion to normal: p' ≈ N(p;\sqrt{\frac{p(1-p)}{n} })

The other conditions for this approximation are also met: (n*p)≥5 and (n*q)≥5

The probability of getting the calculated sample proportion, or lower is:

P(X≤0.45)= P(Z≤\frac{0.45-0.6}{\sqrt{\frac{0.6*0.4}{120} } })= P(Z≤-3.35)= 0.000

This type of problem is for the sample proportion.

I hope this helps!

What is the vertex of the quadratic function?
Debora [2.8K]

Answer:

f(x) = x² - 4x - 12

Step-by-step explanation:

f(x) = (x - 6)(x + 2)

f(x) = x² + 2x - 6x - 12

f(x) = x² - 4x - 12

PLEASE HELP!!! <br><br> Which equation represents this ellipse?
Alona [7]

Answer:

y²/25+x²/4=1

Step-by-step explanation:

The equation for an ellipse is either categorized as

x²/c² + y²/d² = 1 . In such an equation, the vertices on the x axis are categorized by (±c,0) and the vertices on the y axis are (0, ±d)

In the ellipse shown, the vertices/endpoints on the x axis are (-2,0) and (2,0). This means that c is equal to 2. Similarly, on the y axis, the endpoints are (5,0) and (-5,0), so d=5.

Our equation is therefore x²/2²+y²/5²=1 = x²/4+y²/25=1

Our answer is therefore the fourth option, or

y²/25+x²/4=1

What is the nth term rule of the linear sequence below?<br> -4,-1,2,5,8,...
storchak [24]

Answer:

The nth term of the given sequence  tₙ = 3 n - 7

Step-by-step explanation:

Given sequence   - 4 , -1 , 2 , 5, 8 , .....

First term a = -4

The difference of two terms of a given sequence

d = -1 - (-4) = -1 +4 = 3

d = 2 - (-1) = 2 +1 = 3

d = 5 -2 = 3

d = 8 - 5 =3

The difference of two terms of a given sequence is equal

∴ The given sequence is in Arithmetic progression(AP)

     The nth term of given sequence

   t _{n} = a + ( n-1 ) d

  = -4 + (n -1 ) 3 \\= - 4 + 3n - 3 \\= 3 n - 7

<u><em>Final answer:</em></u>-

The nth term of the given sequence  tₙ = 3 n - 7
