In a survey, the planning value for the population proportion is p* = 0.35. How large a sample should be taken to provide a 95%

lions [1.4K]

Answer:

$n=\frac{0.35(1-0.35)}{(\frac{0.05}{1.96})^2}=349.59$

And rounded up we have that n=350

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".

$p$ represent the real population proportion of interest

$\aht p$ represent the estimated proportion for the sample

n is the sample size required (variable of interest)

$z$ represent the critical value for the margin of error

Solution to the problem

The population proportion have the following distribution

$p \sim N(p,\sqrt{\frac{\hat p(1-\hat p)}{n}})$

In order to find the critical value we need to take in count that we are finding the interval for a proportion, so on this case we need to use the z distribution. Since our interval is at 95% of confidence, our significance level would be given by $\alpha=1-0.95=0.05$ and $\alpha/2 =0.025$ . And the critical value would be given by:

$z_{\alpha/2}=-1.96, z_{1-\alpha/2}=1.96$

The margin of error for the proportion interval is given by this formula:

$ME=z_{\alpha/2}\sqrt{\frac{\hat p (1-\hat p)}{n}}$ (a)

And on this case we have that $ME =\pm 0.05$ and we are interested in order to find the value of n, if we solve n from equation (a) we got:

$n=\frac{\hat p (1-\hat p)}{(\frac{ME}{z})^2}$ (b)

And replacing into equation (b) the values from part a we got:

$n=\frac{0.35(1-0.35)}{(\frac{0.05}{1.96})^2}=349.59$

And rounded up we have that n=350

Callan is buying a square shaped platter with an area of 169 square inches what is the correct step he should take if he wants t

bagirrra123 [75]

a = length of one side.

Area of a square = a^2

in our problem,

Area = 169 square inches

a = ?

Plug our numbers into the area formula mentioned above.

169 in^2 = a^2.

Take the square root of each side to find the side length of the square shaped platter.

13 = a

Can u help me ASAP. i need to know how to do it step by step

Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:

$f(x) =4x^3-8x^2+ax+b$ has a factor $2x-1$ and

when divided by $x+2$ , remainder is 20.

To find:Remainder when divided by (x-1) ?

Solution:

$2x-1$ is a factor

$2x - 1 = 0 \Rightarrow x = \frac{1}{2}$ when we put this value of x to the function, it will become 0.

i.e.

$\Rightarrow f(\dfrac{1}{2}) =0 =4\times (\dfrac{1}2)^3-8(\dfrac{1}2)^2+\dfrac{a}{2}+b=0\\\Rightarrow \dfrac{1}{2}-2+\dfrac{a}{2}+b=0\\\Rightarrow 1-4+a+2b=0\\\Rightarrow a +2b=3 ......(1)$
