One environmental group did a study of recycling habits in a California community. It found that 75% of the aluminum cans sold i

AysviL [449]

Answer:

a

$P( \^ p > 0.775 ) = 0.12798$

b

$P( 0.6718 < p < 0.775 ) =0.87183$

Step-by-step explanation:

From the question we are told that

The population proportion is $p = 0.75$

Considering question a

The sample size is $n = 387$

Generally the standard deviation of this sampling distribution is

$\sigma = \sqrt{ \frac{p(1 - p)}{ n } }$

=> $\sigma = \sqrt{ \frac{0.75(1 - 0.75)}{ 387 } }$

=> $\sigma = 0.022$

The sample proportion of cans that are recycled is

$\^ p = \frac{ 300}{387 }$

=> $\^ p = 0.775$

Generally the probability that 300 or more will be recycled is mathematically represented as

$P( \^ p > 0.775 ) = P( \frac{\^ p - p }{ \sigma } > \frac{0.775 - 0.75 }{ 0.022} )$

$\frac{\^ p - p }{\sigma } = Z (The \ standardized \ value\ of \ \^ p )$

$P( \^ p > 0.775 ) = P( Z > 1.136 )$

From the z table the area under the normal curve to the left corresponding to 1.591 is

$P( Z > 1.136) = 0.12798$

=> $P( \^ p > 0.775 ) = 0.12798$

Considering question b

Generally the lower limit of sample proportion of cans that are recycled is

$\^ p_1 = \frac{ 260 }{387 }$

=> $\^ p_1 = 0.6718$

Generally the upper limit of sample proportion of cans that are recycled is

$\^ p_2 = \frac{ 300}{387 }$

=> $\^ p_2 = 0.775$

Generally probability that between 260 and 300 will be recycled is mathematically represented as

$P( 0.6718 < p < 0.775 ) = P( \frac{0.6718 - 0.75 }{ 0.022}< \frac{\^ p - p }{ \sigma }$

=> $P( 0.6718 < p < 0.775 ) = P( -3.55 < Z < 1.136 )$

=> $P( 0.6718 < p < 0.775 ) = P(Z < 1.136 ) - P( Z < -3.55 )$

From the z table the area under the normal curve to the left corresponding to 1.136 and -3.55 is

$P( Z < -3.55 ) = 0.00019262$

and

$P(Z < 1.136 ) = 0.87202$

So

$P( 0.6718 < p < 0.775 ) = 0.87202- 0.00019262$

=> $P( 0.6718 < p < 0.775 ) =0.87183$

A common practice of airline companies is to sell more tickets for a particular flight than there are seats on the plane, becau

Serga [27]

Answer:

0.0159

Step-by-step explanation:

Given that a common practice of airline companies is to sell more tickets for a particular flight than there are seats on the plane, because customers who buy tickets do not always show up for the flight.

Here if X is the no of persons that do not show up, then X is binomial as each trial is independent with p = 0.04 and n =150 (no of tickets sold)

The plane is overbooked if more than 150 show up

i.e. less than 2 do not show up

Hence the probability that the airline overbooked this flight

= $P(X$

Find the volume of a cylinder with a radius of 2 and a length of 9

Brrunno [24]

Answer:

V = pi 36 units^3

V =113.04 units^3

Step-by-step explanation:

The volume of a cylinder is given by

V = pi r^2 h

V = pi ( 2) ^2 *9

V = pi 36

Letting pi = 3.14

V =113.04
