A pew research Center project on the state of news media showed that the clearest pattern of news audience growth in 2012 came o

n digital platforms. According to pew research data, 39% of Americans get news online or from a mobile device in a typical day. a. Suppose that you take a sample of 100 Americans. If the population proportion of Americans who get news online or from a mobile device in a typical day is 0.39, what is the probability that fewer than 30% in your sample will get news online or from a mobile device in a typical day? b. Suppose that you take a sample of 400 Americans. If the population proportion of Americans who get news online or from a mobile device in a typical day is 0.39, what is the probability that fewer than 30% in your sample will get news online or from a mobile device in a typical day? c. Discuss the effect of sample size on the sampling distribution of the proportion in general and the effect on the probabilities in (a) and (b).

Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:

Given that:

the sample proportion p = 0.39

sample size = 100

Then np = 39

Using normal approximation

The sampling distribution from the sample proportion is approximately normal.

Thus, mean \mu _{\hat p} = p = 0.39

The standard deviation;

\sigma = \sqrt{\dfrac{p(1-p)}{n} }

\sigma = \sqrt{\dfrac{0.39(1-0.39)}{100} }

\sigma = 0.048

The test statistics can be computed as:

Z = \dfrac{{\hat _{p}} - \mu_{_ {\hat p}} }{\sigma_{\hat p}}

Z = \dfrac{0.3 - 0.39 }{0.0488}

Z = -1. 8 4

From the z - tables;

P (\hat p \le 0.3 ) = P(z \le -1.84)

\mathbf{P (\hat p \le 0.3 ) = 0.0329}

(b)

Here;

the sample proportion = 0.39

the sample size n = 400

Since np = 400 * 0.39 = 156

Thus, using normal approximation.

From the sample proportion, the sampling distribution is approximate to the mean \mu_{\hat p} =  p = 0.39

the standard deviation \sigma_{\hat p} = \sqrt{\dfrac{p(1-p)}{n} }

\sigma_{\hat p} = \sqrt{\dfrac{0.39 (1-0.39)}{400} }

\sigma_{\hat p} =0.0244

The test statistics can be computed as:

Z = \dfrac{{\hat _{p}} - \mu_{_ {\hat p}} }{\sigma_{\hat p}}

Z = \dfrac{0.3 - 0.39 }{0.0244}

Z = -3.69

From the z - tables;

P (\hat p \le 0.3 ) = P(z \le -3.69)

\mathbf{P (\hat p \le 0.3 ) = 0.0001}

(c) The effect of the sample size on the sampling distribution is that:

As sample size builds up, the standard deviation of the sampling distribution decreases.

In addition to that, reduction in the standard deviation resulted in increases in the Z score, and the probability of having a sample proportion  that is less than 30% also decreases.

If the simple interest on 7000 for 6 years is 2100 then what is the interest rate
Zina [86]

Answer:

5%

Step-by-step explanation:

r = R/100 = 5%/100 = 0.05 per year,

then, solving our equation

I = 7000 × 0.05 × 6 = 2100

I = $ 2,100.00

The simple interest accumulated

on a principal of $ 7,000.00

at a rate of 5% per year

for 6 years is $ 2,100.00.

A kite is flying 92ft off the ground, and its string is pulled taut. The angle of elevation of the kite is 44°. Find the length
bearhunter [10]

Answer:

132.4 feet

Step-by-step explanation:

This is a classic right triangle trig problem.  We have the reference angle of 44, and we have the side length that is opposite the reference angle as 92, now we need the length of the string which is the hypotenuse.  The trig ratio that relates the side opposite the reference angle to the hypotenuse is the sin ratio.  Let's set it up:

sin(44)=\frac{92}{x}

Doing some algebraic manipulations with that gives us

x=\frac{92}{sin(44)}

Plug that into your calculator in degree mode and you get x = 132.4392
