A polling agency is investigating the voter support for a ballot measure in an upcoming city election. The agency will select a random sample of 500 voters from one region, Region A, of the city. Assume that the population proportion of voters who would support the ballot measure in Region A is 0.47. What is the probability that the proportion of voters in the sample of Region A who support the ballot measure is greater than 0.50

Answers

Answer 1

Answer:

The value is  [tex]P( X > 0.50) = 0.089264[/tex]

Step-by-step explanation:

From the question we are told that

   The sample size is  n =  500

   The  population proportion is  p =  0.47  

     

Generally given that the sample size is sufficiently large , the mean of this sampling distribution is mathematically represented as

        [tex]\mu_x = p = 0.47[/tex]

Generally the standard deviation of the sampling distribution is mathematically represented as

       [tex]\sigma = \sqrt{\frac{p(1- p )}{ n} }[/tex]

=>     [tex]\sigma = \sqrt{\frac{ 0.47 (1-0.47 )}{ 500 } }[/tex]

=>     [tex]\sigma = 0.0223[/tex]

Gnerally the probability that the proportion of voters in the sample of Region A who support the ballot measure is greater than 0.50 is mathematically represented as

          [tex]P( X > 0.50) = P( \frac{ X - \mu }{ \sigma } > \frac{ 0.50 - 0.47 }{ 0.0223 } )[/tex]

[tex]\frac{X -\mu}{\sigma }  =  Z (The  \ standardized \  value\  of  \ X )[/tex]

=>        [tex]P( X > 0.50) = P( Z> 1.3453 )[/tex]

From the z table  the area under the normal curve to the left corresponding to  1.3453   is

          [tex]P( Z> 1.3453 ) = 0.089264[/tex]

So  

          [tex]P( X > 0.50) = 0.089264[/tex]

Answer 2

Using the normal distribution and the central limit theorem, it is found that there is a 0.0901 = 9.01% probability that the proportion of voters in the sample of Region A who support the ballot measure is greater than 0.50.

In a normal distribution with mean [tex]\mu[/tex] and standard deviation [tex]\sigma[/tex], the z-score of a measure X is given by:

[tex]Z = \frac{X - \mu}{\sigma}[/tex]

It measures how many standard deviations the measure is from the mean.  

After finding the z-score, we look at the z-score table and find the p-value associated with this z-score, which is the percentile of X.

By the Central Limit Theorem, the sampling distribution of sample proportions of size n of a proportion p has [tex]\mu = p, s = \sqrt{\frac{p(1-p)}{n}}[/tex]

In this problem:

Sample of 500 voters, hence [tex]n = 500[/tex].The proportion is of 0.47, hence [tex]p = 0.47[/tex]

The mean and the standard deviation are:

[tex]\mu = p = 0.47[/tex]

[tex]\sigma = \sqrt{\frac{p(1-p)}{n}} = \sqrt{\frac{0.47(0.53)}{500}} = 0.0223[/tex]

The probability that the proportion of voters in the sample of Region A who support the ballot measure is greater than 0.50 is 1 subtracted by the p-value of Z when X = 0.5, hence:

[tex]Z = \frac{X - \mu}{\sigma}[/tex]

By the Central Limit Theorem

[tex]Z = \frac{X - \mu}{s}[/tex]

[tex]Z = \frac{0.5 - 0.47}{0.0223}[/tex]

[tex]Z = 1.34[/tex]

[tex]Z = 1.34[/tex] has a p-value of 0.9099.

1 - 0.9099 = 0.0901

0.0901 = 9.01% probability that the proportion of voters in the sample of Region A who support the ballot measure is greater than 0.50.

Monitors manufactured by TSI Electronics have life spans that have a normal distribution with a standard deviation of 15001500 hours and a mean life span of 16,00016,000 hours. If a monitor is selected at random, find the probability that the life span of the monitor will be more than 18,09918,099 hours.

Answers

Answer:

0.0809

Step-by-step explanation:

Given that :

Mean(m) = 16000

Standard deviation (s) = 1500

Probability that the life span of the monitor will be more than 18,099

P(x > 18099)

Using the Zscore formula :

Zscore =(x - m) / s

Zscore = (18099 - 16000) / 1500

Zscore = 2099 / 1500

Zscore = 1.399

P(Z > 1.399)

Using the Z probability calculator :

P(Z > 1.399) = 0.080906

= 0.0809

Answers

Answer:

88

Step-by-step explanation:

Mean of five test = 85

Sum of five tests = 85*5 = 425

Mean of first three test =83

Sum of first three test = 83 * 3 = 249

Sum of 4th and 5th test scores = 425 - 249

                                                   = 176

Which recursive definition produces an arithmetic sequence where g(5) = 8 and g(10) = 10?

Answers

Answer:

gₙ = gₙ₋₁ + 0.4, with g₁ = 6.4

Step-by-step explanation:

The n-th term of an arithmetic sequence can be written as:

gₙ = g₁ + (n - 1)*d

Where g₁ is the first value, and d is the difference between any two consecutive terms of this sequence.

Then we have the equations:

g₅ = 8 = g₁ + (5 -1)*d

g₁₀ = 10 = g₁ + (10 - 1)*d

This is a system of equations, we can rewrite this as:

8 = g₁ + 4*d

10 = g₁ + 9*d

To solve this, the first step will be isolate one of the variables in one of the equations, i will isolate g₁ in the first equation:

g₁ = 8 - 4*d

Now we can replace this in the second equation to get:

10 = 8 - 4*d + 9*d

10 = 8 + 5*d

10 - 8 = 5*d

2 = 5*d

2/5 = d = 0.4

Now with this, we can find the value of g₁ by using the equation:

g1 = 8 - 4*d = 8 - 4*(2/5) = 8 - 8/5 = 6.4

Then the nth term of this sequence can be written as:

gₙ = 6.4 + (n - 1)*0.4

This relation also can be written as:

gₙ = gₙ₋₁ + d = gₙ₋₁ + 0.4, with g₁ = 6.4

Then the correct option is the second option.

Step-by-step explanation:

y = 2/3x + 1

Substitute different numbers for x, and find y:

You don't really want to work with fractions, so try to find a number that when multiplied by 2/3, gives you a whole number

x = 6

y = 2/3(6) + 1

y = 12/3 + 1

y = 4 + 1

y = 5

Point: (6, 5)

x = -6

y = 2/3(-6) + 1

y = -12/3 + 1

y = -4 + 1

y = -3

Point: (-6, -3)

Graph these two points, and then use a ruler (optional), and draw a line between them, and a little after the points.

Assume that arrivals follow a Poisson probability distribution and that service times follow an exponential probability distribution. a. What is the average number of cars in the system

Answers

Answer:

4 customers

Step-by-step explanation:

Given that:

Mean Arrival rate (λ) = 4 cars per hour

Service rate (u) = 5 cars per hour

Using the queuing formula :

The average number of cars in the system can be obtained using the relation :

Number of customers in the system (L)

Number of customers in queue = (Lq)

L = Lq + (λ/u)

Lq = λ^2 / u(u - λ)

Hence,

Lq = 4^2 / 5(5 - 4)

Lq = 16/ 5(1)

Lq = 16/ 5

Lq = 3.2

L = 3.2 + (4/5)

L = 3.2 + 0.8

L = 4

in hostel of 40 students there is food for 30 days if 20 more students join the hostel how long will the food last​

Answers

Answer:

The food will last for 20 days

Step-by-step explanation:

The equation of the inverse proportional is xy = k, where k is the constant of variation

∵ In a hostel of 40 students, there is food for 30 days

→ That means the food is the constant k and the number of days y

   varies inversely with the number of students x

∴ x = 40 and y = 30

xy = k

∴ 40 × 30 = k

1200 = k

∴ The equation of the inverse proportional is xy = 1200

∵ 20 more students join the hostel

→ That means the number of students increased by 20

∴ The number of students in the hostel = 40 + 20

The number of students in the hostel = 60

→ By using the equation above

∵ 60 × y = 1200

∴ 60y = 1200

→ Divide both sides by 60

y = 20

The food will last for 20 days
