B. About 3.5% of the people polled are likely to change their minds about who they will vote foir.
C. Between 44.5% and 51.5% of the voters will vote for Congressman Porkbarrel.
D. About 3.5% ofthe people interviewed refused to answer the question.
E. The probability is .48 that Congressman Porkbarrel will be reelected.

Answers

Answer 1

Answer:

A. Based on the procedure by which this figure was generated, it is likely that the population proportion is between 44.5% and 51.5%.

Step-by-step explanation:

Confidence interval:

We build a confidence interval from a sample proportion, to get an estimate of where the population proportion should likely be.

48% of voters surveyed favored the reelection of Congressman Porkbarrel, with a margin of error of 3.5%.

48 - 3.5 = 44.5%.

48 + 3.5 = 51.5%.

Following the concept of a confidence interval, the population proportion is likely to be between 44.5% and 51.5%, and thus, the correct answer is given by option A.

ANSWER-1Both triangles are equal.

A sociologist develops a test to measure attitudes towards public transportation, and 27 randomly selected subjects are given the test. Their mean score is 76.2 and their standard deviation is 21.4. Find the Margin of Error (E) for the 95% confidence interval for the mean score of all such subjects.

Answers

Answer:

The margin of error for the 95% confidence interval for the mean score of all such subjects is of 8.45.

Step-by-step explanation:

We have the standard deviation for the sample, which means that the t-distribution is used to solve this question.

The first step to solve this problem is finding how many degrees of freedom, we have. This is the sample size subtracted by 1. So

df = 27 - 1 = 26

95% confidence interval

Now, we have to find a value of T, which is found looking at the t table, with 26 degrees of freedom(y-axis) and a confidence level of [tex]1 - \frac{1 - 0.95}{2} = 0.975[/tex]. So we have T = 2.0518

The margin of error is:

[tex]M = T\frac{s}{\sqrt{n}}[/tex]

In which s is the standard deviation of the sample and n is the size of the sample.

In this question:

[tex]n = 27, s = 21.4[/tex]. So

[tex]M = 2.0518\frac{21.4}{\sqrt{27}}[/tex]

[tex]M = 8.45[/tex]

The margin of error for the 95% confidence interval for the mean score of all such subjects is of 8.45.

What is the explicit rule for the geometric sequence? 25.5, 5.1, 1.02, 0.204, ... an=25.5(15)n an=25.5(15)n−1 an=25.5(15)n+1 an=25.5(15)n+2

Answers

Given:

The geometric sequence is:

25.5, 5.1, 1.02, 0.204, ...

To find:

The explicit rule for the given geometric sequence.

Solution:

We have,

25.5, 5.1, 1.02, 0.204, ...

Here, the first term is 25.5 and the common ratio is:

[tex]r=\dfrac{a_2}{a_1}[/tex]

[tex]r=\dfrac{5.1}{25.5}[/tex]

[tex]r=\dfrac{1}{5}[/tex]

The explicit rule for a geometric sequence is:

[tex]a_n=ar^{n-1}[/tex]

Where, a is the first term and r is the common ratio.

Putting [tex]a=25.5,\ r=\dfrac{1}{5}[/tex] in the above formula, we get

[tex]a_n=25.5(\dfrac{1}{5})^{n-1}[/tex]

Therefore, the correct option is B.

Answers

Answer:

(95.215 ; 100.785)

(95 ; 101) (nearest whole number)

Step-by-step explanation:

To obtain the confidence interval :

Mean ± margin of error

Mean = 98 hours

Margin of Error = Tcritical * (s/√n)

samole standard deviation, s = 5.6 hours

df = n - 1 = 18 - 1 = 17

Tcritical at (0.05, df = 17) = 2.110

Hence ;

Margin of Error = 2.110 * (5.6/√18) = 2.785

Confidence interval :

98 ± 2.785

Lower boundary = 98 - 2.785 = 95.215

Upper boundary = 98 + 2.785 = 100.785

what is the length of side bd round to one decimal place

Answers

Answer:

BD ≈ 2.8 units

Step-by-step explanation:

By angle bisector theorem,

"If a segment bisects an angle of a triangle, then it divides the opposite side  into the segments which are proportional to the other two sides"

Here, AD is the bisector of the ∠BAC,

[tex]\frac{BD}{CD}=\frac{AB}{AC}[/tex]

[tex]\frac{8.1}{5.9}= \frac{BD}{2}[/tex]

BD = [tex]\frac{2\times 8.1}{5.9}[/tex]

A cone has a radius of 5 ft and a height of 15 ft. It is empty and is being filled with water at a constant rate of 15 15 ft 3 ft3 / sec sec . Find the rate of change of the radius of the surface of the water when the radius of the surface of the water is 2 2 ft. (You must also include the units)

Answers

Answer:

[tex]\frac{dr}{dt}=0.11062ft/sec[/tex]

Step-by-step explanation:

From the question we are told that:

Radius [tex]r=5ft[/tex]

Height [tex]H=15ft[/tex]

Rate [tex]R=15ft/3sec =5ft/s[/tex]

Surface Radius [tex]R_{surf}=2.2ft[/tex]

Generally the equation for Volume is mathematically given by

 [tex]V=\frac{1}{3}\pi*r^2h[/tex]

Since radius to height ratio gives

 [tex]\frac{r}{h}=\frac{5}{15}[/tex]

 [tex]\frac{r}{h}=\frac{1}{3}[/tex]

 [tex]h=3r[/tex]

Therefore

 [tex]V=\frac{1}{3}\pi*r^2(3r)[/tex]

 [tex]V=\pi r^3[/tex]

Generally the equation for Change of Volume is mathematically given by

 [tex]\frac{dv}{dt}=\pi \frac{d}{dt}(r^3)[/tex]

 [tex]\frac{dv}{dt}=\pi 3*r^2 \frac{dr}{dt}[/tex]

 [tex]\frac{dv}{dt}=\pi 3*(2.2)^2 \frac{dr}{dt}[/tex]

 [tex]\frac{dr}{dt}=\frac{5}{45.62}[/tex]

 [tex]\frac{dr}{dt}=0.11062ft/sec[/tex]

Answer nyo po to...Ang hirap(;-;)....pls. Lang po

The answer goes here,

a) We have to tell the time and day which simone has to tell her sister, for picking her up from airport.

b) We have given the day (monday), time(7:00 pm) and total time to reach the destination(18 hours).

c) No such formula will be used here, we will just use our mental ability to solve this question.

d) She will leave at 7:00 pm, day has 24 hours. So, she will be in the flight on monday:

= 24 - (12 + 7) ----------- [12 here means the time of rest of the day,(morning to noon)]

= 24 - 19

= 5 hours

So, she will complete 5 hours of her destination on monday,now the time left is:

= 18 - 5

= 13

= (12 + 1 )hours

So, on tuesday, she will be in the flight for 12 hours (noon) and then on 1:00 pm she will reach the airport, as she needs and extra hour to plane so, the final time is 1:30 pm. And finally, the time she should tell her sister is 1.30 pm.
