Answer:

81.25 miles.

Step-by-step explanation:

We divide 6.5 by 2 to get 3.25, we then multiply 3.25 by 25 to get our answer.

A magazine provided results from a poll of 500 adults who were asked to identify their favorite pie. Among the 500 respondents,

RoseWind [281]

Answer:

The statement that "the margin of error was given as $\pm5$ percentage points" means that the population proportion is estimated to be with a certain level of confidence, within the interval $\hat{p} \pm 0.05$ ; where $\hat{p}[tex] is the sample's proportion. The correct answer is C. The statement indicates that the interval [tex]0.14\pm0.05$ is likely to contain the true population percentage of people that prefer chocolate pie.

Step-by-step explanation:

The margin of error for proportions is given by the following formula:

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

Where:

$z_{\alpha /2}$ is the critical value that corresponds to the confidence level; the confidence level being $1-\alpha$ ,

$\hat{p}$ is the sample's proportion of successes,

$n$ is the size of the sample.

In this exercise we have that $\hat{p}=0.14$ and that the margin of error is 0.05.

Therefore if we replace in the formula to calculate the confidence interval we get:

$\hat{p}\pm 0.05=0.14\pm0.05=(0.09, 0.19)$

Which means that the true population proportion is estimated to be, with a certain confidence level, within the interval (0.09, 0.19).

Life Expectancies In a study of the life expectancy of people in a certain geographic region, the mean age at death was years an

Sphinxa [80]

Answer:

The probability that the mean life expectancy of the sample is less than X years is the p-value of $Z = \frac{X - \mu}{\frac{\sigma}{\sqrt{n}}}$ , in which $\mu$ is the mean life expectancy, $\sigma$ is the standard deviation and n is the size of the sample.

Step-by-step explanation:

To solve this question, we need to understand the normal probability distribution and the central limit theorem.

Normal Probability Distribution

Problems of normal distributions can be solved using the z-score formula.

In a set with mean $\mu$ and standard deviation $\sigma$ , the z-score of a measure X is given by:

$Z = \frac{X - \mu}{\sigma}$

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 p-value, we get the probability that the value of the measure is greater than X.

Central Limit Theorem

The Central Limit Theorem establishes that, for a normally distributed random variable X, with mean $\mu$ and standard deviation $\sigma$ , the sampling distribution of the sample means with size n can be approximated to a normal distribution with mean $\mu$ and standard deviation $s = \frac{\sigma}{\sqrt{n}}$ .

For a skewed variable, the Central Limit Theorem can also be applied, as long as n is at least 30.

We have:

Mean $\mu$ , standard deviation $\sigma$ .

Sample of size n:

This means that the z-score is now, by the Central Limit Theorem:

$Z = \frac{X - \mu}{\frac{\sigma}{\sqrt{n}}}$

Find the probability that the mean life expectancy will be less than years.

The probability that the mean life expectancy of the sample is less than X years is the p-value of $Z = \frac{X - \mu}{\frac{\sigma}{\sqrt{n}}}$ , in which $\mu$ is the mean life expectancy, $\sigma$ is the standard deviation and n is the size of the sample.
