A marketing research company needs to estimate which of two medical plans its employees prefer. A random sample of n employees produced the following 95% confidence interval for the proportion of employees who prefer plan A: (0253.0553). Identify the point estimate for estimating the true proportion of employees who prefer that plan.
a. 0.403
b. 0.253
c. 0.553
d. 0.15

Answers

Answer 1

Answer:

a. 0.403

Step-by-step explanation:

Confidence interval concepts:

A confidence interval has two bounds, a lower bound and an upper bound.

A confidence interval is symmetric, which means that the point estimate used is the mid point between these two bounds, that is, the mean of the two bounds.

The margin of error is the difference between the two bounds, divided by 2.

Confidence interval of (0.253,0.553)

The bounds are 0.253 and 0.553, so the point estimate is:

[tex]p = \frac{0.253 + 0.553}{2} = 0.403[/tex]

This means that the correct answer is given by option A.

Twice a number added to another number is –8. The difference of the two numbers is 2. Find
the numbers​

Answers

Answer:

-2 and -4

Step-by-step explanation:

→ Make variable's for each number

x is the first variable and y is the second

→ Form equations

2x + y = -8

x - y = 2

→ Solve

3x = -6

→ Divide both sides by 3

x = -2

→ Resubstitute that into one of the equations

-2 - y = 2

→ Add 2 on both sides

-y = 4 therefore y = -4

(d) An insurance company will only sell its Select policy to people for whom the probability of a stroke in the next 10 years is less than 0.01. If a smoker with a systolic blood pressure of 200 applies for a Select policy, under what condition will the company sell him the policy if it adheres to this standard

Answers

Answer: Hello your question has some missing data that I was able to find and attach below

A recent 10-year study conducted by a research team at the Great Falls Medical School was conducted to assess how age, systolic blood pressure, and smoking relate to the risk of strokes. Assume that the following data are from a portion of this study. Risk is interpreted as the probability (times 100) that the patient will have a stroke over the next 10-year period. For the smoking variable, define a dummy variable with 1 indicating a smoker and 0 indicating a nonsmoker.

answer :

The condition : Client age ≤ 31.26 years

Step-by-step explanation:

First step : perform a regression analysis via excel ( result attached below )

P-value = 2.06E-07

Next determine the condition on which the company will sell its policy

Y = - 91.7595 +  1.0767x1 + 0.2518x2 + 8.7399x3

1  < -91.7595 + 1.0767x1 + 0.2518*200 + 8.7399*1

make X1 subject of equation above

What are the zeros of P(m) = (m2 – 4)(m2 + 1)?

Answers

Answer:

m=4, -1

Step-by-step explanation:

if i am interpreting this correctly, you are wanting to find at what value of m would the solution be zero.

so, there are two expressions that can cause an answer of 0.

1) if 0=m2-4

so solve for m2, and you get 4=m2

2) if 0=m2+1

solve for m2, and you get -1=m2

you can check your work by plugging the values back into the equation.

P(m)=(4-4)(4+1)

=(0)(5)

=0

and

P(m)=(-1-4)(-1+1)

=(5)(0)

=0

Solve for x.Round to the nearest tenth of a degree, if necessary. MKL,14,7.4

Answers

Answer:

m(∠LMK) = 27.9°

Step-by-step explanation:

We have to calculate the measure of angle LMK.

Measure of opposite side (KL) = 7.4

Measure of adjacent side (ML) = 14

By applying tangent rule in the given triangle,

tan(∠LMK) = [tex]\frac{\text{Opposite side}}{\text{Adjacent side}}[/tex]

                 = [tex]\frac{KL}{ML}[/tex]

                 = [tex]\frac{7.4}{14}[/tex]

                 = 0.52857

m(∠LMK) = [tex]\text{tan}^{-1}(0.52857)[/tex]

               = 27.9°

The filling variance for boxes of cereal is designed to be .02 or less. A sample of 41 boxes of cereal shows a sample standard deviation of 0.16 ounces.


a. Use α= 0.05 to determine whether the variance in the cereal box fillings is exceeding the design specification.
b. State the null and alternative hypotheses.
c. Calculate the value of the test statistic (to 2 decimals).
d. The p-value is:_______
e. What is your conclusion?

Answers

Answer:

-

Null hypothesis             H₀ : σ² ≤ 0.02

Alternative hypothesis Hₐ  : σ² > 0.02

- Chi Square = 51.2

- p-value = 0.1104

- since the calculated p-value ( 0.1104 ) is greater than the level of significance ( 0.05 ).

We fail to reject null hypothesis.

- So at, 5% level of significance, there is no evidence to support that the variance in the cereal box fillings is designed to be 0.02 or less.

Step-by-step explanation:

Given the data in the question;

filling variance for boxes of cereal is designed to be .02 or less

sample size n = 41 boxes

standard deviation S = 0.16 ounces

level of significance = 0.05

Hypothesis;

Null hypothesis             H₀ : σ² ≤ 0.02

Alternative hypothesis Hₐ  : σ² > 0.02

{ Upper tail test }

Test statistics;

Chi Square = [ ( n-1 ) × S² ] / σ²

Chi Square = [ ( 41-1 ) × (0.16)² ] / 0.02

Chi Square = [ 40 × 0.0256 ] / 0.02

Chi Square = 1.024/ 0.02

Chi Square = 51.2

Degree of freedom df = n - 1 = 41 - 1 = 40

Chi square value at 0.05  and df of 40 = 55.7585

p-value = 0.1104

since the calculated p-value ( 0.1104 ) is greater than the level of significance ( 0.05 ).

We fail to reject null hypothesis.

So at, 5% level of significance, there is no evidence to support that the variance in the cereal box fillings is designed to be 0.02 or less.

A positive real number is 5 more than another. When - 10 times the smaller is added to the square of the larger, the result is 57. Find the numbers.

Answers

Answer:

4√2 and 5+4√2

Step-by-step explanation:

Let the two numbers be x ad y

Smaller = y

Bigger = x

If a positive real number is 5 more than another, then;

x = 5 + y ... 1

When - 10 times the smaller is added to the square of the larger, the result is 57, then;

-10y + x² = 57 ...2

Substitute 1 into 2;

-10y + (5+y)² = 57

-10y + 25+10y+y² = 57  

y²+25 = 57

y² = 57 - 25

y² = 32

y = √32

y = 4√2

Since x = 5 + y

x = 5 + 4√2

Hence rhe numbers are 4√2 and 5+4√2

S = speed of car

f = drag Coefficient

l = Length of skid mark

If f = 0.8 ; l = 80 feets

s = √30fl

s = √(30*0.8*80)

s = √1920

s = 43.817

s = 43.82 mph

B.)

s = 80 mph

f = 0.8

s = √30fl

80 = √30*0.8*l

80 = √24l

Square both sides

l = 6400/24

l = 266.67 feets

Step-by-step explanation:

simple interest formula

PV(1+it)

30 months is equal to 30/12 years or 2.5 (so t= 2.5)

Step-by-step explanation:

Sun-Earth (SE) = 93×10⁶ miles

Pluto-Earth (PE) = 4.67×10⁹ miles

so, PE/SE = (4.67×10⁹) / (93×10⁶) = (4.67×10³)/93 =

= 50.215053763440860215... =

Answers

Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:

so in order to round it you have to know after the decimal it goes: tenths, hundreds, thousands (0 tenths, 0 hundreds, 0 thousands)

So 0.007492, take the first 3 numbers after the decimal, 0.007, since it will be in the hundreds place, lets see if we can round the 0 up. If the number behind 0 is greater then or equal to 5 round up, if the number is less then 5 then it stays the same. Since 7>5 it rounds up, so the 0 becomes 1. So your new number will be 0.01

a) Calculate the Simple Interest she would pay in 30 months.

b) Calculate the Total amount Sonia would have to repay the bank.

Answers

Answer:

a. Simple interest, S.I = $2,625

b. Total amount = $12,625

Step-by-step explanation:

Given the following data;

Principal = $10,000

Interest rate = 10.5%

Time = 30 months to years = 2.5 years

a. To find the simple interest;

Mathematically, simple interest is calculated using this formula;

[tex] S.I = \frac {PRT}{100} [/tex]

Where;

S.I is simple interest. P is the principal. R is the interest rate. T is the time.

Substituting into the formula, we have;

[tex] S.I = \frac {10000*10.5*2.5}{100} [/tex]

[tex] S.I = \frac {262500}{100} [/tex]

Simple interest, S.I = $2,625

b. To calculate the total amount Sonia would have to repay the bank;

Total amount = simple interest + principal

Total amount = 2625 + 10000

Total amount = $12,625

Answers

Answer:

$1827

Step-by-step explanation:

Since Cheryl is said to be paid an exempt salary. Then it can be said that Cheyk does not qualify for minimum wage or overtime pay, Hence, exempt payment is in terms or salary rather than wage. Similarly. Gross earning refers the amount a worker receives as income over a certain period of time. The gross income has not been subjected to tax charges or any form of deduction. Hence, it could be said to be the outright earning paid to an employee before any deduction is made.

Hence, Cheryl's gross weekly earning is $1827 per week.
