The administration at Pierce College conducted a survey to determine the proportion of students who ride a bike to campus. Of th

e 125 students surveyed 6 ride a bike to campus. Which of the following is a reason the administration should not calculate a confidence interval to estimate the proportion of all students who ride a bike to campus? Check all that apply.
A. The sample needs to be random but we don’t know if it is.

B. The actual count of bike riders is too small.

C. The actual count of those who do not ride a bike to campus is too small.

D. n(p-hat) is not greater than 10.

E. n(1 minus p-hat) is not greater than 10.

Answer:

The correct option is (D).

Step-by-step explanation:

To construct the (1 - <em>α</em>)% confidence interval for population proportion the distribution of proportions must be approximated by the normal distribution.

A Normal approximation to binomial can be applied to approximate the distribution of proportion <em>p</em>, if the following conditions are satisfied:

  • n\hat p \geq 10
  • n ( 1 - \hat p) \geq 10

In this case <em>p</em> is defined as the proportions of students who ride a bike to campus.

A sample of <em>n</em> = 125 students are selected. Of these 125 students <em>X</em> = 6 ride a bike to campus.

Compute the sample proportion as follows:

\hat p=\frac{X}{n}=\frac{6}{125}=0.048

Check whether the conditions of Normal approximation are satisfied:

n\hat p =125\times 0.048=610

Since n\hat p, the Normal approximation to Binomial cannot be applied.

Thus, the confidence interval cannot be used to estimate the proportion of all students who ride a bike to campus.

Thus, the correct option is (D).

What is the constant of variation for the quadratic variation? 0.1y = 3x2
svet-max [94.6K]

Answer:

The constant of variation for the given quadratic equation is, 30

Step-by-step explanation:

One of the form of a quadratic equation is written as:

y = kx^2     ....[1]

where k is the coefficient and for this case the constant of variation.

In order to obtain the answer for the given equation, we write the given equation to the form above.

0.1y=3x^2  or

y=(\frac{3}{0.1})x^2 or

y=30x^2

Comparing this equation with equation [1], to get the value of k;

k=30.

therefore, the  constant of variation is, 30.

Find the regression line associated with the set of points. (Round all coefficients to four decimal places.) HINT (See Example 2
horrorfan [7]

The equation of the regression line is : Ŷ = 0.8571+0.8878X

Given the set of points :

(1, 2), (4,4), (9,9)

X axis : ___ Y axis

1 ___________2

1 ___________2 4 __________ 4

1 ___________2 4 __________ 4 9 __________ 9

The regression line associated could be obtained using technology such as excel, linear regression solvers or a graphing calculator.

Using technology :

Input the values of X and Y into their appropriate column and plot :

The regression equation obtained is :

Ŷ = 0.8571 + 0.8878X

Where :

Ŷ = predicted value of Y(dependent variable)

X = Independent variable

Slope = 0.8878

Intercept = 0.8571

The regression plot is attached below
