Answer: \pm0.1706

Step-by-step explanation:

Given : Sample size : n= 33

Critical value for significance level of \alpha:0.05 : z_{\alpha/2}= 1.96

Sample mean : \overline{x}=2.5

Standard deviation : \sigma= 0.5

We assume that this is a normal distribution.

Margin of error : E=\pm z_{\alpha/2}\dfrac{\sigma}{\sqrt{n}}

i.e. E=\pm (1.96)\dfrac{0.5}{\sqrt{33}}=\pm0.170596102837\approx\pm0.1706

Hence, the  margin of error is \pm0.1706

Help please i am stuck on what to do
nikklg [1K]

Answer:

These are confusing Beth , b/c you have to remember that they will add to 100%

Step-by-step explanation:

so

green = 3*  yellow

100% = green + yellow + 35% + 25%

100% = 3* yellow + yellow +60%

40% = 4* yellow

10% = yellow

30% = green

there are 14 purples in the bag , which is 35% of total

14/.35 = 40

there are a total of 40 pins

so

4    are yellow  (10% of 40  or 40* 0.1)

12 are green    (30% of 40  or 40*0.3)

14  are purple  (35% of 40 or 40*0.35)

10  are grey  (25% of 40  or 40*0.25 )

An insurance agent has appointments with four prospective clients tomorrow. From past experience the agent knows that the probab
larisa86 [58]

Answer:

0.082

Step-by-step explanation:

Total number of clients = 4

From past experience, the agent knows that the probability of making a sale on any appointment is one out of five = 1/5.

This shows that there are only two possible outcomes, success or failure. It is either she makes a sale on an appointment or she fails to make a sale on the appointment. Therefore, we can use binomial distribution.

For binomial distribution,

P(x=r) = nCr × q^(n-r) × p^r

p = probability of making a sale on any appointment = 1/5 = 0.2

q = probability of not making a sale on any appointment = 1 -1/5 = 0.8

n = 5

x = 3

P(x=3) = 5C3 × 0.8^2 × 0.2^3

= 10×0.6724× 0.012167 =0.082
