Matilda recently took a statistics quiz in her math class. in one question, 45 of 900 visitors at a local craft show were survey

ed about the cost of admission to the show. Matilda incorrectly stated that the sample in this situation was represented by 900 visitors at the craft show.

Answer: See explanation

Step-by-step explanation:

a. what is Matilda's error?

The error by Maltida was that she mistakenly thought the population was the sample size. In this case, the 900 visitors aren't the sample but the population.

The population is referred Tina's the entire pool where the sample is picked by the researcher.

b. what is the actual sample

The actual sample is 45. The sample is the smaller version which can be gotten from the entire population. It is a subset from the population of 900 visitors. Therefore, based on the question, it is 45.

Answer:

<em>$180.</em>

Step-by-step explanation:

First lets find the <em>interest rate.</em>

<em>6.1 ÷ 100 = 0.061</em>

<em>0.061 x $200 = 12.2</em>

based on the calculations, <em>12.2</em> is our interest rate <em>in a year</em>.  Now lets find the interest rate in <em>15 years</em>.

<em>12.2 x 15 = $183 </em>

So <em>$183</em> is our<em> precise</em> interest rate in <em>15 years</em>, but lets<em> round the interest rate to the nearest 10 dollars.</em>  Therefore, <em>$180 is our answer.</em>

News article reports that "Americans have differing views on two potentially inconvenient and invasive practices that airports c
OverLord2011 [107]

Answer:

1) p1=0.83

2) p2=0.81

3) Option B

4) p=0.82

5) s=0.03

6) z=0.67

7) P=0.50

8) Do not reject H0

Step-by-step explanation:

1) The proportion of Republicans who think the full-body scans should be applied in airports is equal to the ratio between the republicans that think it should over the total Republicans in the poll:

p=X/n=258/311=0.83

2) The proportion of Democrats who think the full-body scans should be applied in airports is equal to:

p=X/n=294/363=0.81

3) As we want to know if there is a difference in the proportions calculated, not if one is higher or lower than the other, the correct option is B:

H_0:p_1-p_2=0\\\\H_a:p_1-p_2\neq0

4) The pooled estimate of a proportion is the average of both proportions:

\bar{p}=\frac{p_1+p_2}{2}= \frac{0.83+0.81}{2}=0.82

5) The standard error can be calculated as:

s=\sqrt{\frac{\bar{p}(1-\bar{p})}{n_1} +\frac{\bar{p}(1-\bar{p})}{n_2}} \\\\s=\sqrt{\frac{0.82*0.18}{311} +\frac{0.82*0.18}{363}} \\\\s=\sqrt{0.00047+0.00041} =\sqrt{0.00088}=0.03

6) The z-statistic can be calculated as:

z=\frac{p_1-p_2}{s}=\frac{0.83-0.81}{0.03}=\frac{0.02}{0.03}=0.67

7) The P-value for z=0.67 is P=0.50 (from the standard normal distribution table).

2P(Z>|z|)=0.50286

8) If the significance level is 0.01, the P-value is bigger than the significance level. The effect is not significanct. The null hypothesis is not rejected.

There is not enough evidence to say that both proportions are different.

A. Do not reject H0

Don’t answer if you don’t know !!

Answer:

72 sides

Step-by-step explanation:

The sum of the angles of a polygon with n sides is (n−2) × 180

Since the polygon is regular, we can divide by the number of sides to find the measure of each angle (n−2) × 180 / n

Each angle is equal to 175

(n−2) × 180 / n = 175

Multiply each side by n

(n-2)180 = 175n

Distribute

180n -360 = 175n

Subtract 180n from each side

180n-180n-360 = 175n-180n

-360 = -5n

Divide each side by -5

-360/-5 =-5n/-5

72 = n

There are 72 sides
