Answer:
a) 0.3483 = 34.83% probability that 369 or more of the 1478 adults have sleepwalked.
b) 369 < 403.4, which means that 369 is less than 2.5 standard deviations above the mean, and thus, a result of 369 is not significantly high.
c) Since the sample result is not significant, it suggests that the rate of 24.5% is a good estimate for the percentage of people that have sleepwalked.
Step-by-step explanation:
We use the normal approximation to the binomial to solve this question.
Binomial probability distribution
Probability of exactly x sucesses on n repeated trials, with p probability.
Can be approximated to a normal distribution, using the expected value and the standard deviation.
The expected value of the binomial distribution is:
The standard deviation of the binomial distribution is:
A result is considered significantly high if it is more than 2.5 standard deviations above the mean.
Normal probability distribution
Problems of normally distributed distributions can be solved using the z-score formula.
In a set with mean and standard deviation
, the zscore of a measure X is given by:
The Z-score measures how many standard deviations the measure is from the mean. After finding the Z-score, we look at the z-score table and find the p-value associated with this z-score. This p-value is the probability that the value of the measure is smaller than X, that is, the percentile of X. Subtracting 1 by the pvalue, we get the probability that the value of the measure is greater than X.
When we are approximating a binomial distribution to a normal one, we have that ,
.
Assume that 24.5% of people have sleepwalked.
This means that
Sample of 1478 adults:
This means that
Mean and standard deviation:
a. Assuming that the rate of 24.5% is correct, find the probability that 369 or more of the 1478 adults have sleepwalked.
Using continuity correction, this is , which is 1 subtracted by the p-value of Z when X = 368.5.
has a p-value of 0.6517
1 - 0.6517 = 0.3483
0.3483 = 34.83% probability that 369 or more of the 1478 adults have sleepwalked.
b. Is that result of 369 or more significantly high?
362.11 + 2.5*16.5346 = 403.4
369 < 403.4, which means that 369 is less than 2.5 standard deviations above the mean, and thus, a result of 369 is not significantly high.
c. What does the result suggest about the rate of 24.5%?
Since the sample result is not significant, it suggests that the rate of 24.5% is a good estimate for the percentage of people that have sleepwalked.
Answer:
C. x+y = 1 and -x-y = -1
Step-by-step explanation:
Remember that if a system of equations has an infinite number of solutions, then the resulting equation from using the first step of the elimination method would have no variables and would be true.
1) Let's try canceling out the equations in option C, x+y =-1 and -x-y =-1. Add the two equations together. (Work shown in attached picture.)
2) All of the terms cancel out with each other, leaving only a true statement of 0 = 0. Thus, option C is the answer.
