Nine percent of americans say they are well informed about politics in comparison to most people. You randomly sample 200 americ

Arada [10]

Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:

Using normal distribution

z = (x - mean) / standard deviation

Nine percent of americans say they are well informed about politics in comparison to most people.

That means probability of success is p =9/100 = 0.09,

then probability of failure is

q = 1-p =1 -0.09= 0.91

n = number of sample = 200

x=(8% of 200) = 0.08×200 =16

mean = np = 200×0.09= 18

Standard deviation = npq = 200×0.09×0.91= 16.38

We are looking for the probability that less than 8% of the people sampled will answer yes to the question

8% of 200 = 16

P (x greater than 16) =P(x lesser than/equal to 15)

z = 15-18 /16.38 = -3/16.38

= -0.18

Looking at the normal distribution table

P(x greater than 16) = 0.5714

Which equation could be used to find the height of the flagpole?

Andrew [12]

Given a fragpole which makes a right angle with the point of observation with the angle of elevation as 50°.

Let x be the height of the flagpole, then

$\sin50^o= \frac{x}{5}$

Therefore, the <span>equation that could be used to find the height of the flagpole is
</span><span>x/5 = sin 50</span>

Derive the formula for the area of a sector, and then use it to choose all that are correct.

Marina CMI [18]

Answer:

Part A) $A_s=\frac{\pi r^{2}}{360^o}{\theta}$

Part B) option 1,option 4

Step-by-step explanation:

Part A) Derive the formula for the area of a sector

we know that

The area of circle is equal to

$A=\pi r^{2}$

The area of circle subtends a central angle of 360 degrees

so

using proportion

Find out the area of a sector $A_s$ by a central angle of ∅ degrees

$\frac{\pi r^{2}}{360^o}=\frac{A_s}{\theta}$

$A_s=\frac{\pi r^{2}}{360^o}{\theta}$

Part B) Verify each case

case 1) we have

radius = 5 cm

angle = 120°

area = 26.2 cm 2

Find the area of the sector and then compare with the value of the given area

assume

$\pi=3.14$

substitute the given values

$A_s=\frac{(3.14)(5)^{2}}{360^o}{120^o}$

$A_s=26.2\ cm^2$

so

The given value of area is correct

case 2) we have

radius = 4 cm

angle = 105°

area = 16.7 cm 2

Find the area of the sector and then compare with the value of the given area

assume

$\pi=3.14$

substitute the given values

$A_s=\frac{(3.14)(4)^{2}}{360^o}{105^o}$

$A_s=14.7\ cm^2$

so

The given value of area is not correct

case 3) we have

radius = 6 cm

angle = 85°

area = 23.7 cm 2

Find the area of the sector and then compare with the value of the given area

assume

$\pi=3.14$

substitute the given values

$A_s=\frac{(3.14)(6)^{2}}{360^o}{85^o}$

$A_s=26.7\ cm^2$

so

The given value of area is not correct

case 4) we have

radius = 7

angle = 75°

area = 32.1 cm 2

Find the area of the sector and then compare with the value of the given area

assume

$\pi=3.14$

substitute the given values

$A_s=\frac{(3.14)(7)^{2}}{360^o}{75^o}$

$A_s=32.1\ cm^2$

so

The given value of area is correct
