Based on historical data, your manager believes that 26% of the company's orders come from first-time customers. A random sample

scoundrel [369]

Answer:

$\hat p \sim N( p, \sqrt{\frac{p (1-p)}{n}})$

And we can use the z score formula given by:

$z = \frac{\hat p -\mu_p}{\sigma_p}$

And if we find the parameters we got:

$\mu_p = 0.26$

$\sigma_p = \sqrt{\frac{0.26(1-0.26)}{158}} = 0.0349$

And we can find the z score for the value of 0.4 and we got:

$z = \frac{0.4-0.26}{0.0349}= 4.0119$

And we can find this probability:

$P(z>4.0119) = 1-P(z$

And if we use the normal standard table or excel we got:

$P(z>4.0119) = 1-P(z$

Step-by-step explanation:

For this case we have the following info given:

$p = 0.26$ represent the proportion of the company's orders come from first-time customers

$n=158$ represent the sample size

And we want to find the following probability:

$p(\hat p >0.4)$

And we can use the normal approximation since we have the following two conditions:

1) np = 158*0.26 = 41.08>10

2) n(1-p) = 158*(1-0.26) = 116.92>10

And for this case the distribution for the sample proportion is given by:

$\hat p \sim N( p, \sqrt{\frac{p (1-p)}{n}})$

And we can use the z score formula given by:

$z = \frac{\hat p -\mu_p}{\sigma_p}$

And if we find the parameters we got:

$\mu_p = 0.26$

$\sigma_p = \sqrt{\frac{0.26(1-0.26)}{158}} = 0.0349$

And we can find the z score for the value of 0.4 and we got:

$z = \frac{0.4-0.26}{0.0349}= 4.0119$

And we can find this probability:

$P(z>4.0119) = 1-P(z$

And if we use the normal standard table or excel we got:

$P(z>4.0119) = 1-P(z$

Can a prime number be a multiple of any other number except itself. Explain why or why not

zzz [600]

No, by definition a prime number is one where the only factors are 1 and itself. If some prime number is a multiple of another number, then that other number is a factor of the prime number. But that would make it composite (non-prime)

For example, the number 11 is prime. The only factors are 1 and itself. If we made the claim that 11 is a multiple of 2, then 2 would be a factor of 11 making 11 non-prime (as it doesn't just have 1 and itself as factors).

Note: If you have two numbers A and B, and you say that A is a factor of B, then A is the smaller value. Though there is the exception when A = B. For example, saying "8 is a factor of 16" has 8 being the smaller value.

Another note: if you say "A is a multiple of B", then B is larger than A. The exception is when A = B. Example: "100 is a multiple of 5"
