A certain article indicates that in a sample of 1,000 dog owners, 610 said that they take more pictures of their dog than of the

ir significant others or friends, and 440 said that they are more likely to complain to their dog than to a friend. Suppose that it is reasonable to consider this sample as representative of the population of dog owners.(a) Construct a 90% confidence interval for the proportion of dog owners who take more pictures of their dog than other cant others or friends (Use a table or technology. Round your answers to three decimal places.)(________,_________)Interpret the interval,1. We are 90% confident that the true proportion of dog owners who take more pictures of their dog than of their significant others or friends fals directly in the middle of this interval 2.

Answer:

(a) The 90% confidence interval is: (0.60, 0.63) Correct interpretation is (3).

(b) The 95% confidence interval is: (0.42, 0.46) Correct interpretation is (1).

(c) First, the confidence level in part(b) is <u>more than</u> the confidence level in part(a) is, so the critical value of part(b) is <u>more than</u> the critical value of part(a), Second the <u>margin of error</u> in part(b) is <u>more than</u> than in part(a).

Step-by-step explanation:

(a)

Let <em>X</em> = number of dog owners who take more pictures of their dog than of their significant others or friends.

Given:

<em>X</em> = 610

<em>n</em> = 1000

Confidence level = 90%

The (1 - <em>α</em>)% confidence interval for population proportion is:

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

The sample proportion is:

\hat p=\frac{X}{n}=\frac{610}{1000}=0.61

The critical value of <em>z</em> for a 90% confidence level is:

z_{\alpha/2}=z_{0.10/2}=z_[0.05}=1.645

Construct a 90% confidence interval for the population proportion of dog owners who take more pictures of their dog than their significant others or friends as follows:

CI=\hat p\pm z_{\alpha/2} \sqrt{\frac{\hat p(1-\hat p)}{n}}\\=0.61\pm 1.645\sqrt{\frac{0.61(1-0.61}{1000}}\\=0.61\pm 0.015\\=(0.595, 0.625)\\\approx(0.60, 0.63)

Thus, the 90% confidence interval for the population proportion of dog owners who take more pictures of their dog than their significant others or friends is (0.60, 0.63).

<u>Interpretation</u>:

There is a 90% chance that the true proportion of dog owners who take more pictures of their dog than of their significant others or friends falls within the interval (0.60, 0.63).

Correct option is (3).

(b)

Let <em>X</em> = number of dog owners who are more likely to complain to their dog than to a friend.

Given:

<em>X</em> = 440

<em>n</em> = 1000

Confidence level = 95%

The (1 - <em>α</em>)% confidence interval for population proportion is:

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

The sample proportion is:

\hat p=\frac{X}{n}=\frac{440}{1000}=0.44

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

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

Construct a 95% confidence interval for the population proportion of dog owners who are more likely to complain to their dog than to a friend as follows:

CI=\hat p\pm z_{\alpha/2} \sqrt{\frac{\hat p(1-\hat p)}{n}}\\=0.44\pm 1.96\sqrt{\frac{0.44(1-0.44}{1000}}\\=0.44\pm 0.016\\=(0.424, 0.456)\\\approx(0.42, 0.46)

Thus, the 95% confidence interval for the population proportion of dog owners who are more likely to complain to their dog than to a friend  is (0.42, 0.46).

<u>Interpretation</u>:

There is a 95% chance that the true proportion of dog owners who are more likely to complain to their dog than to a friend falls within the interval (0.42, 0.46).

Correct option is (1).

(c)

The confidence interval in part (b) is wider than the confidence interval in part (a).

The width of the interval is affected by:

  1. The confidence level
  2. Sample size
  3. Standard deviation.

The confidence level in part (b) is more than that in part (a).

Because of this the critical value of <em>z</em> in part (b) is more than that in part (a).

Also the margin of error in part (b) is 0.016 which is more than the margin of error in part (a), 0.015.

First, the confidence level in part(b) is <u>more than</u> the confidence level in part(a) is, so the critical value of part(b) is <u>more than</u> the critical value of part(a), Second the <u>margin of error</u> in part(b) is <u>more than</u> than in part(a).

Find the missing side of each triangle. i need help!!!
Nezavi [6.7K]

Answer:

√161 yd

Step-by-step explanation:

Hi there!

We're given a right triangle (notice the right angle), the measure of one of the legs (one of the sides that make up the right angle) as 8 yd, and the hypotenuse (the side opposite to the right angle) as 15 yd.

We need to find x, which is the other leg in the triangle

If we are given 2 sides and need to find a third, we can use Pythagorean Theorem, which states that a²+b²=c² if a and b are legs and c is the hypotenuse

In this case, a=8, b=x, and c=15

So let's substitute those values into the formula

(8)²+x²=(15)²

raise everything to the second power

64+x²=225

subtract 64 from both sides

x²=161

take the square root of both x and 161

x=√161, x=-√161

-√161 cannot work in this case, as distance cannot be negative.

The question asks for the answer to be in simplified radical form, but √161 cannot be simplified down further

so the answer is <u>√161 yd</u>

Hope this helps! :)

Which expressions are equivalent to the equation
Ivahew [28]

Answer:

The correct answer is option 3

2⁻¹⁰ and 1/1024

Step-by-step explanation:

Points to remember

1). ( xᵃ)ᵇ = xᵇ

2).  x⁻ᵃ = 1/xᵃ

It is given that, (2⁵)⁻²

<u>To find the equivalent of (2⁵)⁻²</u>

(2⁵)⁻² =  2⁻¹⁰

<u>To find the value of 2⁻¹⁰</u>

2⁻¹⁰ = 1/2¹⁰

2¹⁰ = 1024

1/2¹⁰ = 1/1024

Therefore the correct answer is 3rd option

2⁻¹⁰ and 1/1024

Can someone help me round these two numbers? I completely forgot how ‍
tigry1 [53]

Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:

If you are rounding to nearest tenth

2.6  1.9

Nearest hundredth

2.6   1.87

If the number to the right of the one you want to round is 5 or above, you go up a number. If it's below, you go down 1.

Hope this helps.
