Answer:

The fraction of the people who choose curry = \frac{13}{4}

Step-by-step explanation:

As given,

Starter              Main course

Soup                    Lasagna

Prawns                 Curry

The number of people who choose soup: the number of people who choose prawns = 2 : 3

Of those who chose soup,

The number of people who choose Lasagna : the number of people who chose curry = 5 : 3

Of those who chose prawns,

The number of people who chose Lasagna : the number of people who chose curry = 1 : 5

Let total number of people goes to restaurant = 5x

People who choose soup = \frac{2}{5}×5x = 2x

People who choose prawns = \frac{3}{5}×5x = 3x

Now, given,

Of those who choose soup,

The number of people who choose Lasagna : the number of people who chose curry = 5 : 3

So,

People who choose Lasagna after choosing soup = \frac{5}{8}×2x = \frac{5}{4}x

People who choose Curry after choosing soup = \frac{3}{8}×2x = \frac{3}{4}x

Also, given,

Of those who chose prawns,

The number of people who chose Lasagna : the number of people who chose curry = 1 : 5

So,

People who choose Lasagna after choosing prawns = \frac{1}{6}×3x = \frac{1}{2}x

People who choose Curry after choosing prawns = \frac{5}{6}×3x = \frac{5}{2}x

So,

Total number of people who choose curry = \frac{3}{4}x + \frac{5}{2}x = x ( \frac{3}{4}  + \frac{5}{2} ) = x (\frac{3 + 10}{4} ) = x ( \frac{13}{4} ) =  \frac{13}{4}x

So ,

The fraction of the people who choose curry = \frac{Total number of people who choose curry}{Total number of people who go to restaurant} = \frac{\frac{13}{4} x}{x} = \frac{13}{4}

Sergio [31]

Answer:

The 99% confidence interval would be given (11.448;14.152).

Step-by-step explanation:

1) Important concepts and notation

A confidence interval for a mean "gives us a range of plausible values for the population mean. If a confidence interval does not include a particular value, we can say that it is not likely that the particular value is the true population mean"

s=16.6 represent the sample deviation

\bar X=12.8 represent the sample mean

n =1003 is the sample size selected

Confidence =99% or 0.99

\alpha=1-0.99=0.01 represent the significance level.

2) Solution to the problem

The confidence interval for the mean would be given by this formula

\bar X \pm z_{\alpha/2} \frac{s}{\sqrt{n}}

We can use a z quantile instead of t since the sample size is large enough.

For the 99% confidence interval the value of \alpha=1-0.99=0.01 and \alpha/2=0.005, with that value we can find the quantile required for the interval in the normal standard distribution.

z_{\alpha/2}=2.58

And replacing into the confidence interval formula we got:

12.8 - 2.58 \frac{16.6}{\sqrt{1003}}=11.448

12.8 + 2.58 \frac{16.6}{\sqrt{1003}} =14.152

And the 99% confidence interval would be given (11.448;14.152).

We are confident that about 11 to 14 are the number of books that the people had read on the last year on average, at 1% of significance.
