One way of checking the effect of undercoverage, nonresponse, and other sources of error in a sample survey is to compare the sample with known facts about the population. About 12% of American adults identify themselves as black. Suppose we take an SRS of 1500 American adults and let X be the number of blacks in the sample. Use a Normal distribution to estimate the probability that the sample will contain between 165 and 195 blacks.

Answers

Answer 1

Solution :

Given :

p = 12% = 0.12

n = 15..

Mean is defined as the product of a sample size n and the probability p such that :

[tex]$\mu_X = np = 1500 \times 0.12$[/tex]

             = 180

Standard deviation may be defined as the square of a product of the sample size n, the probability p and the probability 1-p :

[tex]$\sigma_X = \sqrt{np(1-p)}$[/tex]

[tex]$\sigma_X = \sqrt{1500 \times 0.12 \times (1-0.12)}$[/tex]

     ≈  12.5857

The z-score is given by :

[tex]$z=\frac {x- \mu}{\sigma } $[/tex]

[tex]$z=\frac {165-180} {12.5857 }$[/tex]

 ≈  -1.19  

[tex]$z=\frac {x- \mu}{\sigma } $[/tex]

[tex]$z=\frac{195-180} {12.5857 }$[/tex]

 ≈  1.19  

Now determining the corresponding probability using table  :

P (165 ≤ X ≤ 195 ) = P (-1.19 ≤ Z ≤ 1.19 )

                            = 1-2 x P(Z < -1.19)

                            = 1-2 x 0.1170

                            = 1-0.2340

                            = 0.7660

                             = 76.60%

Answer 2
"76.06%" would be the probability that the sample will contain between 165 as well as 195 blacks.

Given values,

p = 12%

           = 0.12

n = 1500

The mean will be

→ [tex]\mu x = np[/tex]

By putting the values,

       [tex]= 1500\times 0.12[/tex]

       [tex]= 180[/tex]

The standard deviation will be:

→ [tex]\sigma x = \sqrt{np(1-p)}[/tex]

       [tex]= \sqrt{1500\times 0.12\times (1-0.12)}[/tex]

       [tex]= 12.5857[/tex]

The z-score will be:

→ [tex]z = \frac{x- \mu}{\sigma}[/tex]

     [tex]= \frac{165-180}{12.5857}[/tex]

     [tex]= -1.19[/tex]

and,

→ [tex]z = \frac{195-180}{12.5857}[/tex]

     [tex]= 1.19[/tex]

hence,

The probability will be:

→ [tex]P(165 \leq X \leq 195) = P(-1.19 \leq Z \leq 1.19)[/tex]

                                [tex]= 1-2\times P(Z < -1.19)[/tex]

                                [tex]= 1-2\times 0.1170[/tex]

                                [tex]= 1-0.2340[/tex]

                                [tex]= 0.7660[/tex]

                                [tex]= 76.60[/tex] (%)

Thus the answer above is right.

Assume that the weight of cereal in a "12.6 ounce box" is N(µ,0.42). The Food and Drug Association (FDA) allows only a small percentage of boxes to contain less than 12.6 ounces. You collect a random sample of n = 35 boxes and find that the sample mean is 12.8. Test the null hypothesis H0: µ = 13 against the alternative hypothesis HA: µ < 13 at level of significance α = 0.01

Answers

Answer:

We reject the null hypothesis and accept the alternate hypothesis, that is, that the mean is less than 13 ounces.

Step-by-step explanation:

The null hypothesis is:

[tex]H_{0}: \mu = 13[/tex]

The alternate hypotesis is:

[tex]H_{a}: \mu < 13[/tex]

The test statistic is:

[tex]z = \frac{X - \mu}{\frac{\sigma}{\sqrt{n}}}[/tex]

In which X is the sample mean, [tex]\mu[/tex] is the value tested at the null hypothesis, [tex]\sigma[/tex] is the standard deviation and n is the size of the sample.

13 is tested at the null hypothesis:

This means that [tex]\mu = 13[/tex]

N(µ,0.42)

This means that the standard deviation is 0.42, that is, [tex]\sigma = 0.42[/tex]

You collect a random sample of n = 35 boxes and find that the sample mean is 12.8.

This means that [tex]n = 35, X = 12.8[/tex]

Value of the test statistic:

[tex]z = \frac{X - \mu}{\frac{\sigma}{\sqrt{n}}}[/tex]

[tex]z = \frac{12.8 - 13}{\frac{0.42}{\sqrt{35}}}[/tex]

[tex]z = -2.82[/tex]

Pvalue of the test:

The pvalue of the test is the pvalue of z = -2.82.

Looking at the z table, z = -2.82 has a pvalue of 0.0024

0.0024 < 0.01, which means that we reject the null hypothesis and accept the alternate hypothesis, that is, that the mean is less than 13 ounces.

Which ordered pair is the solution to the system of linear equations y =-7x+2 and y = 9x-14?
• (-5,1)
• (1,-5)
(5,-1)
(-1,5)

Answers

Answer:

(1, -5)

Step-by-step explanation:

Solve the system by setting the equations equal to each other, and solving for x:

-7x + 2 = 9x - 14

2 = 16x - 14

16 = 16x

1 = x

So, the x coordinate of the solution will be 1.

Plug in 1 as x into one of the equations, and solve for y

y = -7x + 2

y = -7(1) + 2

y = -7 + 2

y = -5

So, the y coordinate is -5.

The ordered pair solution is (1, -5)

The data in a data set are normally distributed with a mean of 170 and a standard deviation of 20. Estimate the percent of the data that are less than 150 or greater than 190.​

Answers

Using the normal distribution, we find that 32% of the data that is less than 150 or greater than 190.​

----------------------------

Normal Probability Distribution

Problems of normal distributions can be solved using the z-score formula.

In a set 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]

The Z-score 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. This p-value is the probability that the value of the measure is smaller than X, that is, the percentile of X. Subtracting 1 by the p-value, we get the probability that the value of the measure is greater than X.

----------------------------

The data in a data set are normally distributed with a mean of 170 and a standard deviation of 20.

This means that [tex]\mu = 170, \sigma = 20[/tex]

----------------------------

Less than 150:

As a proportion, it is the p-value of Z when X = 150, so:

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

[tex]Z = \frac{150 - 170}{20}[/tex]

[tex]Z = -1[/tex]

[tex]Z = -1[/tex] has a p-value of 0.16.

0.16x100% = 16%

----------------------------

More than 190:

As a proportion, it is 1 subtracted by the p-value of Z when X = 190, so:

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

[tex]Z = \frac{190 - 170}{20}[/tex]

[tex]Z = 1[/tex]

[tex]Z = 1[/tex] has a p-value of 0.84.

1 - 0.84 = 0.16

0.16x100% = 16%

----------------------------

Estimate the percent of the data that are less than 150 or greater than 190.​

We add both percentages, thus:

16% + 16% = 32%

32% of the data that is less than 150 or greater than 190.​

Complete question :

It is desired to check the calibration of a scale by weighing a standard 10 g weight 100 times. Let µ be the population mean reading on the scale, so that the scale is in calibration if µ = 10. A test is made of the hypotheses H0:µ = 10 versus H1:µ ≠ 10. Consider three possible conclusions: (i) The scale is in calibration, (ii) The scale is out of calibration, (iii) The scale might be in calibration.

Which of the three conclusions is best ifH0 is rejected?

Answer:

The scale is out of calibration

Step-by-step explanation:

The null hypothesis ; H0

H0 : μ = 10 ; if this hold true, then the scale is in calibration

Alternative hypothesis ; H1

H1 : μ ≠ 10 ; if this holds true, then the scale is out of calibration

If the Null hypothesis, H0 is rejected, it means that, there is significant evidence to support the alternative hypothesis ; that the scale is out of calibration.

Hence, the best conclusion is that, the scale is out of calibration.
