In a population of 10,000, there are 5000 nonsmokers, 2500 smokers of one pack or less per day, and 2500 smokers of more than on
Kazeer [188]

Answer:

In one month, we will have 4,950 non-smokers, 2,650 smokers of one pack and 2,400 smokers of more than one pack.

In two months, we will have 4,912 non-smokers, 2,756 smokers of one pack and 2,332 smokers of more than one pack.

In a year, we will have 4,793 non-smokers, 3,005 smokers of one pack and 2,202 smokers of more than one pack.

Step-by-step explanation:

We have to write the transition matrix M for the population.

We have three states (nonsmokers, smokers of one pack and smokers of more than one pack), so we will have a 3x3 transition matrix.

We can write the transition matrix, in which the rows are the actual state and the columns are the future state.

- There is an 8% probability that a nonsmoker will begin smoking a pack or less per day, and a 2% probability that a nonsmoker will begin smoking more than a pack per day. <em>Then, the probability of staying in the same state is 90%.</em>

-  For smokers who smoke a pack or less per day, there is a 10% probability of quitting and a 10% probability of increasing to more than a pack per day. <em>Then, the probability of staying in the same state is 80%.</em>

- For smokers who smoke more than a pack per day, there is an 8% probability of quitting and a 10% probability of dropping to a pack or less per day. <em>Then, the probability of staying in the same state is 82%.</em>

<em />

The transition matrix becomes:

\begin{vmatrix} &NS&P1&PM\\NS&  0.90&0.08&0.02 \\  P1&0.10&0.80 &0.10 \\  PM& 0.08 &0.10&0.82 \end{vmatrix}

The actual state matrix is

\left[\begin{array}{ccc}5,000&2,500&2,500\end{array}\right]

We can calculate the next month state by multupling the actual state matrix and the transition matrix:

\left[\begin{array}{ccc}5000&2500&2500\end{array}\right] * \left[\begin{array}{ccc}0.90&0.08&0.02\\0.10&0.80 &0.10\\0.08 &0.10&0.82\end{array}\right] =\left[\begin{array}{ccc}4950&2650&2400\end{array}\right]

In one month, we will have 4,950 non-smokers, 2,650 smokers of one pack and 2,400 smokers of more than one pack.

To calculate the the state for the second month, we us the state of the first of the month and multiply it one time by the transition matrix:

\left[\begin{array}{ccc}4950&2650&2400\end{array}\right] * \left[\begin{array}{ccc}0.90&0.08&0.02\\0.10&0.80 &0.10\\0.08 &0.10&0.82\end{array}\right] =\left[\begin{array}{ccc}4912&2756&2332\end{array}\right]

In two months, we will have 4,912 non-smokers, 2,756 smokers of one pack and 2,332 smokers of more than one pack.

If we repeat this multiplication 12 times from the actual state (or 10 times from the two-months state), we will get the state a year from now:

\left( \left[\begin{array}{ccc}5000&2500&2500\end{array}\right] * \left[\begin{array}{ccc}0.90&0.08&0.02\\0.10&0.80 &0.10\\0.08 &0.10&0.82\end{array}\right] \right)^{12} =\left[\begin{array}{ccc}4792.63&3005.44&2201.93\end{array}\right]

In a year, we will have 4,793 non-smokers, 3,005 smokers of one pack and 2,202 smokers of more than one pack.

Ms. Jones had $40 to purchase groceries. She bought 4 packs of rice and 3 boxes of granola bars. The packs of rice cost $1.09 ea
Nesterboy [21]

Answer:

so to know full price of granola bars and rice packs; you would multiply 1.09 × 4 for the rice which you get 4.36 then for granola bars you do 4.29 × 3 and you get 12.87 then you add 12.87 + 4.36 = 17.23 then you subtract this from the $$ Mr.Jones has which is 40 so its 40-17.23 and you get 22.77

A market research company wishes to know how many energy drinks adults drink each week. They want to construct a 80% confidence
Diano4ka-milaya [45]

Answer:

The confidence interval = (7.8 , 8.0)

Step-by-step explanation:

Confidence Interval formula =

Mean ± z × Standard deviation/√n

Mean = 7.9

Standard deviation = 0.9

n = number of samples = 164

z = z score of an 80% confidence interval = 1.282

Confidence Interval = 7.9 ± 1.282 × 0.9/√164

= 7.9 ± 0.0900966432

Confidence Interval

= 7.9 - 0.0900966432

= 7.8099033568

Approximately to 1 decimal place = 7.8

7.9 + 0.0900966432

= 7.9900966432

Approximately to 1 decimal place = 8.0

Therefore, the confidence interval = (7.8 , 8.0)
