Answer:

a) $p(X= 2) = 0.261$

b) P(x>2) = 0.566

c) P(2<x<5) = 0.334

Step-by-step explanation:

Given 24% of U.S. adults say they are more likely to make purchases during a sales tax holiday

Probability 0f U.S. adults say they are more likely to make purchases during a sales tax holiday (p) = 0.24

n = 10

By using Poisson distribution

mean number of make purchases during a sales tax holiday

λ = np = 10 X 0.24 = 2.4

a)

The probability of getting exactly '2'

The probability $p(X= 2) = e^{-\alpha } \frac{\alpha^r }{r! }$

$p(X= 2) = e^{2.4 } \frac{\(2.4)^2 }{2! }$

$p(X= 2) = e^{2.4 } \frac{\(2.4)^2 }{2! }= 0.261$

b) The probability of getting more than '2'

$P(X>2) = 1- {p(x=0)+p(x=1)+p(x=2)}$

$= e^{-2.4 } \frac{(2.4)\^0 }{0! }+ e^{-2.4 } \frac{(2.4)\^1 }{1!}+e^{-2.4 } \frac{(2.4)\^2 }{2!}$

= 0.090 + 0.2177+0.261 = 0.566

P(x>2) = 0.566

c) The probability of getting between two and five

P( 2<x<5) = P(x=3)+p(x=4) = $= e^{-2.4 } \frac{(2.4)\^3 }{3! }+ e^{-2.4 } \frac{(2.4)\^4 }{4!}+$

P(2<x<5) = 0.2090 + 0.125 = 0.334

Write an equation of a line that is perpendicular to the line y=2/3x and passes through origin

sesenic [268]

keeping in mind that perpendicular lines have negative reciprocal slopes, hmmm what's the slope of the equation above anyway?

$\bf y = \cfrac{2}{3}x\implies y = \stackrel{\stackrel{m}{\downarrow }}{\cfrac{2}{3}}x+0\qquad \impliedby \begin{array}{|c|ll} \cline{1-1} slope-intercept~form\\ \cline{1-1} \\ y=\underset{y-intercept}{\stackrel{slope\qquad }{\stackrel{\downarrow }{m}x+\underset{\uparrow }{b}}} \\\\ \cline{1-1} \end{array} \\\\[-0.35em] ~\dotfill$

$\bf \stackrel{\textit{perpendicular lines have \underline{negative reciprocal} slopes}} {\stackrel{slope}{\cfrac{2}{3}}\qquad \qquad \qquad \stackrel{reciprocal}{\cfrac{3}{2}}\qquad \stackrel{negative~reciprocal}{-\cfrac{3}{2}}}$

so we're really looking for the equation of a line whose slope is -3/2 and runs through (0,0).

$\bf (\stackrel{x_1}{0}~,~\stackrel{y_1}{0})~\hspace{10em} \stackrel{slope}{m}\implies -\cfrac{3}{2} \\\\\\ \begin{array}{|c|ll} \cline{1-1} \textit{point-slope form}\\ \cline{1-1} \\ y-y_1=m(x-x_1) \\\\ \cline{1-1} \end{array}\implies y-\stackrel{y_1}{0}=\stackrel{m}{-\cfrac{3}{2}}(x-\stackrel{x_1}{0})\implies y=-\cfrac{3}{2}x$

A random sample of 20 recent weddings in a country yielded a mean wedding cost of $ 26,388.67. Assume that recent wedding costs

Makovka662 [10]

Answer:

a) 95% confidence interval for the meancost, μ, of all recent weddings in this country = (22,550.95, 30,226.40)

.The 95% confidence interval is from $22,550.95 to $30,226.40.

b) For the interpretation of the result, option D is correct.

We can be 95% confident that the mean cost, μ, of all recent weddings in this country is somewhere within the confidence interval.

c) Option B is correct.

The population mean may or may not lie in this interval, but we can be 95% confident that it does.

Step-by-step explanation:

Sample size = 20

Sample Mean = $26,388.67

Sample Standard deviation = $8200

Confidence Interval for the population mean is basically an interval of range of values where the true population mean can be found with a certain level of confidence.

Mathematically,

Confidence Interval = (Sample mean) ± (Margin of error)

Sample Mean = 26,388.67

Margin of Error is the width of the confidence interval about the mean.

It is given mathematically as,

Margin of Error = (Critical value) × (standard Error of the mean)

Critical value will be obtained using the t-distribution. This is because there is no information provided for the population mean and standard deviation.

To find the critical value from the t-tables, we first find the degree of freedom and the significance level.

Degree of freedom = df = n - 1 = 20 - 1 = 19.

Significance level for 95% confidence interval

(100% - 95%)/2 = 2.5% = 0.025

t (0.025, 19) = 2.086 (from the t-tables)

Standard error of the mean = σₓ = (σ/√n)

σ = standard deviation of the sample = 8200

n = sample size = 20

σₓ = (8200/√20) = 1833.6

99% Confidence Interval = (Sample mean) ± [(Critical value) × (standard Error of the mean)]

CI = 26,388.67 ± (2.093 × 1833.6)

CI = 26,388.67 ± 3,837.7248

99% CI = (22,550.9452, 30,226.3948)

99% Confidence interval = (22,550.95, 30,226.40)

a) 95% confidence interval for the meancost, μ, of all recent weddings in this country = (22,550.95, 30,226.40)

.The 95% confidence interval is from $22,550.95 to $30,226.40.

b) The interpretation of the confidence interval obtained, just as explained above is that we can be 95% confident that the mean cost, μ,of all recent weddings in this country is somewhere within the confidence interval

c) A further explanation would be that the population mean may or may not lie in this interval, but we can be 95% confident that it does.

Hope this Helps!!!
