In a sample of 42 water specimens taken from a construction site, 26 contained detectable levels of lead. Construct 90% confiden

hram777 [196]

Answer:

(0.4958, 0.7422)

Step-by-step explanation:

Let p be the true proportion of water specimens that contain detectable levels of lead. The point estimate for p is $\hat{p}=26/42=0.6190$ . The estimated standard deviation is given by $\sqrt{\hat{p}(1-\hat{p})/n}=\sqrt{(0.6190)(1-0.6190)/42}=0.0749$ . Because we have a large sample, the 90% confidence interval for p is given by $0.6190\pm z_{0.05}0.0749$ where $z_{0.05}=1.6448$ is the value that satisfies that above this and under the standard normal density there is an area of 0.05. So, the confidence interval is $0.6190\pm (1.6448)(0.0749)$ , i.e., (0.4958, 0.7422).

A bee flies 20 feet per second directly to a flowerbed from its hive. The bee stays at the flowerbed for fifteen minutes. Then i

Ksenya-84 [330]

A. The equation to find the distance of the flowerbed from the hive is: $\frac{x}{20}+\frac{x}{12}+900= 1200$ , where x is the distance.

B. The flowerbed is 2250 feet far from the hive.

<u><em>Explanation</em></u>

Suppose, the distance of the flowerbed from the hive is $x$ feet.

The bee flies 20 feet per second directly to a flowerbed from its hive and flies directly back to the hive at 12 feet per second.

As, $Time=\frac{Distance}{Speed}$

So, the time taken by the bee to reach the flowerbed $= \frac{x}{20}$ seconds and the time taken to fly back to the hive $=\frac{x}{12}$ seconds.

The bee stays at the flowerbed for 15 minutes or (15×60)seconds or 900 seconds and it is away from the hive for a total of 20 minutes or (20×60)seconds or 1200 seconds.

So, the equation will be.......

$\frac{x}{20}+\frac{x}{12}+900= 1200\\ \\ \frac{3x+5x}{60}= 300\\ \\ 8x= 60*300\\ \\ 8x=18000\\ \\ x=\frac{18000}{8}=2250$

Thus, the distance of the flowerbed from the hive is 2250 feet.

The distance to the nearest exit doir is no more than 150 feet. Use d to represent the distance in feet to the nearest exit door

il63 [147K]

Answer: $d\leq150$

Step-by-step explanation:

1. You have the following information given in the problem:

- The distance to the nearest exit door is no more than 150 feet.

- $d$ represents the distance to the nearest exit door, in feet.

2. Therefore, keeping the information above on mind, you know that the distance to the nearest exit door ( $d$ ) must be less than or equal to 150 feet, then, you can express this as following:

$d\leq150$
