The two conditional relative frequency tables below show the results of a survey asking students whether they are taking a forei

gn language or not.
Which table could be used to answer the question "Assuming a student is taking a foreign language, what is the probability the student is also in high school?”

A) Table A, because the given condition is that the student is in high school.

B) Table A, because the given condition is that the student is taking a foreign language.

C) Table B, because the given condition is that the student is in high school.

D) Table B, because the given condition is that the student is taking a foreign language.

Answer:

option: B

Step-by-step explanation:

We are asked to find out which table could be used to answer:

" What is the probability that the student is in high school given that he is taking a foreign language "

The answer is option: B

Since we are given a condition that the student is taking a foreign language and we need to find the probability that he is in high school.

  • <em>so P(High school)+P(Not in high school i.e. in Middle school)=1 ( where P denote the probability of an event)</em>

Such a condition is satisfied in Table A but not in Table B.

Hence, Option B is correct( Table A, because the given condition is that the student is taking a foreign language)

A researcher surveyed 150 high school students and found that 68% played a musical insturment. What would be a reasonable range
maria [59]

Answer:

The reasonable range for the population mean is (61%, 75%).

Step-by-step explanation:

The interval estimate of a population parameter is an interval of values that consist of the values within which the true value of the parameter lies with a certain probability.

The mean of the sampling distribution of sample proportion is, \hat p.

One of the best interval estimate of population proportion is the 95% confidence interval for proportion,

CI=\hat p \pm z_{\alpha/2}\sqrt{\frac{\hat p(1-\hat p)}{n}}

Given:

n = 150

\hat p = 0.68

The critical value of <em>z</em> for 95% confidence level is:

z_{\alpha/2}=z_{0.05/2}=z_{0.025}=1.96

Compute the 95% confidence interval for proportion as follows:

CI=\hat p \pm z_{\alpha/2}\sqrt{\frac{\hat p(1-\hat p)}{n}}

     =0.68\pm1.96\sqrt{\frac{0.68(1-0.68)}{150}}\\\\=0.68\pm 0.0747\\\\=(0.6053, 0.7547)\\\\\approx (0.61, 0.75)

Thus, the reasonable range for the population mean is (61%, 75%).

Decrease $7500 by 7%<br>please help i need step by step explanation​
soldier1979 [14.2K]
(100% - 7%) × 7,500

= 93% × 7,500

= 93 ÷ 100 × 7,500

= 93 × 7,500 ÷ 100

= 697,500 ÷ 100

= 6975

Write an equation for a translation 1 unit down and 5 units right of y=|x|.<br> (y=[blank])
inn [45]

Answer:

Hence the corresponding equation of the given problem will be:

y'=|x-5|-1

Step-by-step explanation:

Let y' denote the corresponding equation after the translation of the given function y

We are given a equation of a function as:   y=|x|.

Now we have to write an equation such that there is a translation 1 unit down and 5 units right of y=|x|.

We know that for any function f(x) the translation 'a' units down is given by:

f(x)-a

And the translation 'b' units right of a function g(x) is given by:

g(x-b)

Hence the corresponding equation of the given problem will be:

y'=|x-5|-1

SURFACE AREAS - PYRAMIDS?
Bond [772]

The total surface area consists of the base area and the surface area (the area of all lateral faces). The base is a hexagon with side a=3 cm.

A_{hexagon}=6A_{triangle}=6\cdot \dfrac{1}{2} \cdot \dfrac{a^2\sqrt{3}}{4} =\dfrac{3}{4} \cdot 3^2\cdot \sqrt{3}=\dfrac{27\sqrt{3}}{4} sq. cm.

Each lateral face is an isosceles triangle with height h=12 cm and base a=3 cm. The area of one such lateral triangle is

A_{lateral}=\dfrac{1}{2}\cdot h\cdot a= \dfrac{1}{2}\cdot 12\cdot 3=18 sq. cm.

Then the total surface area is:

A_{total}= \dfrac{27\sqrt{3}}{4} +6\cdot 18=\dfrac{27\sqrt{3}}{4} +108=11.7+108=119.7 sq. cm.

Answer: 119.7 sq. cm.
