o-na [289]

Answer:

a) $n=\frac{0.5(1-0.5)}{(\frac{0.02}{1.96})^2}=2401$

And rounded up we have that n=2401

b) $n=\frac{0.07(1-0.07)}{(\frac{0.02}{1.96})^2}=625.22$

And rounded up we have that n=626

And we see that if we have previous info about p the sample size varies a lot.

Step-by-step explanation:

Previous concepts

A confidence interval is "a range of values that’s likely to include a population value with a certain degree of confidence. It is often expressed a % whereby a population means lies between an upper and lower interval".

The margin of error is the range of values below and above the sample statistic in a confidence interval.

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".

Solution to the problem

In order to find the critical value we need to take in count that we are finding the interval for a proportion, so on this case we need to use the z distribution. Since our interval is at 95% of confidence, our significance level would be given by $\alpha=1-0.95=0.05$ and $\alpha/2 =0.025$ . And the critical value would be given by:

$z_{\alpha/2}=-1.96, z_{1-\alpha/2}=1.96$

Part a

The margin of error for the proportion interval is given by this formula:

$ME=z_{\alpha/2}\sqrt{\frac{\hat p (1-\hat p)}{n}}$ (a)

And on this case we have that $ME =\pm 0.02$ and we are interested in order to find the value of n, if we solve n from equation (a) we got:

$n=\frac{\hat p (1-\hat p)}{(\frac{ME}{z})^2}$ (b)

Since we don't have prior information about the population proportion we can use ase estimator $\hat p =0.5$ . And replacing into equation (b) the values from part a we got:

$n=\frac{0.5(1-0.5)}{(\frac{0.02}{1.96})^2}=2401$

And rounded up we have that n=2401

Part b

For thi case the estimator for p is $\hat p =0.07$

$n=\frac{0.07(1-0.07)}{(\frac{0.02}{1.96})^2}=625.22$

And rounded up we have that n=626

And we see that if we have previous info about p the sample size varies a lot.

While in flight, a hot air balloon decreases its elevation by 83 2/5 meters and then increases its elevation by 83.7 meters

Pachacha [2.7K]

An inequality which compares the changes in elevation of this hot air balloon while in flight is given by L - 83 2/5 ≤ L ≤ L + 83.7.

<h3>What is an elevation?</h3>

An elevation is also referred to as an altitude and it can be defined as the vertical distance (height) above a natural satellite or the surface of planet Earth such as land or sea level.

This ultimately implies that, an elevation (altitude) simply refers to the vertical height (elevation) of an object or physical body above a particular location or planetary reference plane such as land or sea level on planet Earth.

<h3>What is an inequality?</h3>

An inequality can be defined as a mathematical relation that compares two (2) or more integers and variables in an equation based on any of the following arguments (symbols):

Less than (<).
Greater than (>).
Less than or equal to (≤).
Greater than or equal to (≥).

For this exercise, let the variable L represent the initial height of this balloon. Also, since the hot air balloon decreased its elevation by 83 2/5 and increases its elevation by 83.7 meters, we have the following:

The lower limit is equal to: L - 83 2/5.

The upper limit is equal to: L + 83.7.

In this context, an inequality which models the changes in elevation of this hot air balloon is L - 83 2/5 ≤ L ≤ L + 83.7.
