Answer:

x =2

Step-by-step explanation:

\frac{2 /3}{5}  =  \frac{x}{15}  \\  \\  \frac{2}{3 \times 5}  =  \frac{x}{15}  \\  \\  \frac{2}{15}  =  \frac{x}{15}  \\  \\ 2 = x \\  \\ x = 2

An accounting firm is planning for the next tax preparation season. From last years returns, the firm collects a systematic rand
Elena L [17]

Answer:

a)From the central limit theorem we know that the distribution for the sample mean \bar X is given by:

\bar X \sim N(\mu, \frac{\sigma}{\sqrt{n}})

And the standard error for the mean would be:

\sigma_{\bar X}= \frac{140}{\sqrt{100}} =14

b) We want this probability:

P(\bar X >120)

And we can use the z score formula given by:

z = \frac{\bar X -\mu}{\frac{\sigma}{\sqrt{n}}}

And replacing we got:

z = \frac{120-90}{\frac{140}{\sqrt{100}}}= 2.143

And we can find this probability with the complement rule and the normal standard deviation or excel and we got:

P( z>2.143) = 1-P(Z

Step-by-step explanation:

Previous concepts

Normal distribution, is a "probability distribution that is symmetric about the mean, showing that data near the mean are more frequent in occurrence than data far from the mean".  

The central limit theorem states that "if we have a population with mean μ and standard deviation σ and take sufficiently large random samples from the population with replacement, then the distribution of the sample means will be approximately normally distributed. This will hold true regardless of whether the source population is normal or skewed, provided the sample size is sufficiently large".

Solution to the problem

Part a

From the central limit theorem we know that the distribution for the sample mean \bar X is given by:

\bar X \sim N(\mu, \frac{\sigma}{\sqrt{n}})

And the standard error for the mean would be:

\sigma_{\bar X}= \frac{140}{\sqrt{100}} =14

Part b

We want this probability:

P(\bar X >120)

And we can use the z score formula given by:

z = \frac{\bar X -\mu}{\frac{\sigma}{\sqrt{n}}}

And replacing we got:

z = \frac{120-90}{\frac{140}{\sqrt{100}}}= 2.143

And we can find this probability with the complement rule and the normal standard deviation or excel and we got:

P( z>2.143) = 1-P(Z

We are interested in finding out the proportion of adults in the United State who cannot cover a $400 unexpected expense without
serious [3.7K]

Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:

given that we are interested in finding out the proportion of adults in the United State who cannot cover a $400 unexpected expense without borrowing money or going into debt.

Sample size = 765

Favour = 322

a) The population is the adults in the United State who cannot cover a $400 unexpected expense without borrowing money or going into debt

b) The parameter being estimated is the population proportion P of adults in the United State who cannot cover a $400 unexpected expense without borrowing money or going into debt.

c) point estimate for proportion = sample proporiton = \frac{322}{765} \\=0.4209

d) We can use test statistic here as for proportions we have population std deviation known.

d) Std error = 0.01785(\sqrt{\frac{pq}{n} }

Test statistic Z = p difference / std error

f) when estimated p is 0.50 we get Z = -4.43

g) Is true population value was 40% then

Z = 1.17 (because proportion difference changes here)
