Based on historical data, your manager believes that 26% of the company's orders come from first-time customers. A random sample

of 158 orders will be used to estimate the proportion of first-time-customers. What is the probability that the sample proportion is greater than than 0.4?
Note: You should carefully round any z-values you calculate to 4 decimal places to match wamap's approach and calculations.



Answer =


(Enter your answer as a number accurate to 4 decimal places.)

Answer:

\hat p \sim N( p, \sqrt{\frac{p (1-p)}{n}})

And we can use the z score formula given by:

z = \frac{\hat p -\mu_p}{\sigma_p}

And if we find the parameters we got:

\mu_p = 0.26

\sigma_p = \sqrt{\frac{0.26(1-0.26)}{158}} = 0.0349

And we can find the z score for the value of 0.4 and we got:

z = \frac{0.4-0.26}{0.0349}= 4.0119

And we can find this probability:

P(z>4.0119) = 1-P(z

And if we use the normal standard table or excel we got:

P(z>4.0119) = 1-P(z

Step-by-step explanation:

For this case we have the following info given:

p = 0.26 represent the proportion of the company's orders come from first-time customers

n=158 represent the sample size

And we want to find the following probability:

p(\hat p >0.4)

And we can use the normal approximation since we have the following two conditions:

1) np = 158*0.26 = 41.08>10

2) n(1-p) = 158*(1-0.26) = 116.92>10

And for this case the distribution for the sample proportion is given by:

\hat p \sim N( p, \sqrt{\frac{p (1-p)}{n}})

And we can use the z score formula given by:

z = \frac{\hat p -\mu_p}{\sigma_p}

And if we find the parameters we got:

\mu_p = 0.26

\sigma_p = \sqrt{\frac{0.26(1-0.26)}{158}} = 0.0349

And we can find the z score for the value of 0.4 and we got:

z = \frac{0.4-0.26}{0.0349}= 4.0119

And we can find this probability:

P(z>4.0119) = 1-P(z

And if we use the normal standard table or excel we got:

P(z>4.0119) = 1-P(z

Find the value of x. *<br> I think I’m a little off
DiKsa [7]

Answer:

x = 44

Step-by-step explanation:

3x - 5 is complementary to y° so their sum is 180°

The angle with measure 127° is also complementary with y°

127 + y = 180

y = 53°

53 + 3x - 5 = 180

3x + 48 = 180

3x = 132

x = 44

question says ; miranda has $3.60 in quarters and nickels in her piggy bank. which equation could be solved to find the possible
Jobisdone [24]
To find the relation between them, you need transform them to the same currency. Let's transform them to cents.
$3.60 = 360 cents.
One quarter is 25 cents, and one nickel is 5 cents.

So 360 = 25q  + 5n

Hope this helps! :D

Shannon Perfumeries sells two fragrances. The table contains the price corresponding to the number of bottles of fragrance A. Bo
Aliun [14]
<span>Table
Bottles Price($)
3           78
6           156
9           234

From that you can find the unit price: 78 / 3 = 156 / 6 = 234 / 9 = 26.

That means that the unit rate of this fragance is $26.

If you call x the number of bottles the equation is

Price = unit rate * number of bottles = 26x.

Now compare this information with that on your graph to compare the unit rates.

This can help you fo find the unit rate in from your grpah: the unit rate is the slope of the line =

[change in y-coordinate] / [change in the x-coordinate]
