A graduate student majoring in linguistics is interested in studying the number of students in her college who are bilingual. Of the 1,320 students at the college, 466 of them are bilingual. If the graduate student conducts a study and samples 50 students at the college, use a calculator to determine the probability that 17 or fewer of them are bilingual.

Answers

Answer 1

The result will be the probability that 17 or fewer out of the 50 sampled students are bilingual.

To determine the probability that 17 or fewer out of 50 sampled students are bilingual, we can use the binomial probability formula. Let's calculate it step by step:

First, we need to determine the probability of an individual student being bilingual. We can do this by dividing the number of bilingual students by the total number of students:

P(bilingual) = 466 / 1320

Next, we'll use this probability to calculate the probability of having 17 or fewer bilingual students out of a sample of 50. We'll sum up the probabilities for having 0, 1, 2, ..., 17 bilingual students using the binomial probability formula:

P(X ≤ 17) = P(X = 0) + P(X = 1) + P(X = 2) + ... + P(X = 17)

Where:

P(X = k) = (nCk) * (P(bilingual))^k * (1 - P(bilingual))^(n - k)

n = Sample size = 50

k = Number of bilingual students (0, 1, 2, ..., 17)

Now, let's use a calculator to compute these probabilities. Assuming you have access to a scientific calculator, you can follow these steps:

Convert the probability of an individual being bilingual to decimal form: P(bilingual) = 466 / 1320 = 0.353

Calculate the cumulative probabilities for having 0 to 17 bilingual students:

P(X ≤ 17) = P(X = 0) + P(X = 1) + P(X = 2) + ... + P(X = 17)

Using the binomial probability formula, we'll substitute the values:

P(X ≤ 17) = (50C0) * (0.353)^0 * (1 - 0.353)^(50 - 0) + (50C1) * (0.353)^1 * (1 - 0.353)^(50 - 1) + ... + (50C17) * (0.353)^17 * (1 - 0.353)^(50 - 17)

Evaluate this expression using your calculator to get the final probability. Make sure to use the combination (nCr) function on your calculator to calculate the binomial coefficients.

Answer 2

Using the central limit theorem, the probability that 17 or fewer of them are bilingual.

The following information is given in the question:

Population size N = 1320

Number of bilingual students = 466

Sample size n = 50

number of bilingual students in the sample = 17

Population proportion:

[tex]P =\frac{466}{1320}[/tex]

P =0.3530

Q= 1-3530

Q = 0.647

Sample proportion:

[tex]p = \frac{17}{50}[/tex]

p = 0.34

q = 1-0.34

q = 0.66

Since,

[tex]X \sim B(n, p)[/tex]

E(x) = np and var(x) = npq

Here, the sample size (50) is large and the probability p is small.

So we can use the central limit theorem, which says that for large n and small p :

[tex]X \sim (nP, nPQ)[/tex]

Where, P =0.3530

nP = 50 x 0.3530 = 17.65

and nPQ = 50x0.3530x0.647 = 11.41

Now, we want to calculate P(X≤17)

[tex]P(X\leq 17) = P(\frac{x-nP}{\sqrt{nPQ}}\leq \frac{17-17.65}{\sqrt{11.41}})[/tex]

[tex]P(X\leq 17) = P(z}\leq \frac{-0.65}{3.78}})[/tex]

[tex]P(X\leq 17) = P(z}\leq -0.172)[/tex]

[tex]P(X\leq 17) = P(z}\geq 0.172)[/tex]

[tex]P(X\leq 17) =1- P(z}\leq 0.172)[/tex]

[tex]P(X\leq 17) =1-0.56[/tex]

[tex]P(X\leq 17) =0.44[/tex]

Hence, the probability that 17 or fewer of the students are bilingual is 0.44.

Answers

Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:

For the null hypothesis,

p = 0.35

For the alternative hypothesis,

P > 0.35

Since the z score is given as z = 1.82, we would find the probability value by determining the area above the z score from the normal distribution table. The required probability value is

1 - 0.966 = 0.034

Assuming alpha = 0.05,

Since alpha, 0.05 > than the p value, 0.034, then we would reject the null hypothesis. Therefore, the correct option is

Diego planted a 8 inch tall magical beanstalk. The height of the beanstalk increases by 16% each day.Write a function ff that determines the height of the beanstalk in inches in terms of the number of days tt since Diego planted the beanstalk f(t)=f(1)/f(0)=f(2)/f(1)=f(5.28)/f(4.28)=For any value of x, what is the value of f(x+1)/f(x)?

Answers

Answer:

The expression for the height of the plant is: f(x) = 8*(1.16)^x;

The value of f(x+1)/f(x) is 1.16.

Step-by-step explanation:

Since Diego's beanstalk grows at an exponential rate of 16% per day, then the expression that represents the height of the plant, "f", in function of days, "x", can be found as shown below:

Initially the height of the plant was:

[tex]f(0) = 8[/tex]

After the first day however it was:

f(1) = 8*(1 + \frac{16}{100}) = 8*(1.16)

While after the second day:

f(2) = f(1)*(1.16) = 8*(1.16)*(1.16) = 8*(1.16)²

And so on, therefore the expression is:

f(x) = 8*(1.16)^x

The value of f(x + 1)/f(x) is:

[8*(1.16)^(x + 1)]/[8*(1.16)^x]

[8*(1.16)*(1.16)^(x)]/[8*(1.16)^x] = 1.16

Step 3 of 5: Compute the value of the test statistic. Round your answer to three decimal places.

Answers

Answer:

The value of the test statistic is:

t = -1.112

Step-by-step explanation:

In this case a paired difference test is to be performed.

The hypothesis can be defined as follows:

H₀: There is no difference between the two population means, i.e. d = 0.

Hₐ: There is a significant difference between the two population means, i.e. d ≠ 0.

The significance level of the test is, α = 0.10.

Use MS-Excel to perform the analysis.

Consider the output attached below.

The value of the test statistic is:

t = -1.112

The p-value of the two-tailed test is:

p-value = 0.303.

Decision rule:

Reject the null hypothesis if the p-value is less than the significance level.

p-value = 0.303 > α = 0.10.

The null hypothesis was failed to be rejected at 10% level of significance.

Conclusion:

There is not enough evidence to support the claim that there is a difference between the two population means.

"An ordinance requiring that a smoke detector be installed in all previously constructed houses has been in effect in a particular city for 1 year. The fire department is concerned that many houses remain without detectors. Let p= the true proportion of such houses having detectors, and suppose that a random sample of 25 homes is inspected. If the sample strongly indicates that fewer than 80% of all houses have a detector, the fire department will campaign for a mandatory inspection program. Because of the costliness of the program, the department prefers not to call for such inspections unless sample evidence strongly argues for their necessity. Let X denote the number of homes with detectors among the 25 sampled. Consider rejecting the claim that p>= 0.8 if x<= 15.


a. What is the probability that the claim is rejected when the actual value of p is 0.8?
b. What is the probability of not rejecting the claim when p= 0.7? when p= 0.6?
c. How do the "error probabilities" of parts (a) and (b) change if the value 15 in the decision rule is replaced by 14?

Answers

Answer:

a) Probability that the claim is rejected when the actual value of p is 0.8 = P(X ≤ 15) = 0.0173

b) Probability of not rejecting the claim when p = 0.7, P(X > 15) = 0.8106

when p = 0.6, P(X > 15) = 0.4246

c) Check Explanation

The error probabilities are evidently lower when 15 is replaced with 14 in the calculations.

Step-by-step explanation:

p is the true proportion of houses with smoke detectors and p = 0.80

The claim that 80% of houses have smoke detectors is rejected if in a sample of 25 houses, not more than 15 houses have smoke detectors.

If X is the number of homes with detectors among the 25 sampled

a) Probability that the claim is rejected when the actual value of p is 0.8 = P(X ≤ 15)

This is a binomial distribution problem

A binomial experiment is one in which the probability of success doesn't change with every run or number of trials (probability that each house has a detector is 0.80)

It usually consists of a number of runs/trials with only two possible outcomes, a success or a failure (we are sampling 25 houses with each of them either having or not having a detector)

The outcome of each trial/run of a binomial experiment is independent of one another.

Binomial distribution function is represented by

P(X = x) = ⁿCₓ pˣ qⁿ⁻ˣ

n = total number of sample spaces = 25 houses sampled

x = Number of successes required = less than or equal to 15

p = probability of success = probability that a house has smoke detectors = 0.80

q = probability of failure = probability that a house does NOT have smoke detectors = 1 - p = 1 - 0.80 = 0.20

P(X ≤ 15) = Sum of probabilities from P(X = 0) to P(X = 15) = 0.01733186954 = 0.01733

b) Probability of not rejecting the claim when p= 0.7 when p= 0.6

For us not to reject the claim, we need more than 15 houses with detectors, hence, th is probability = P(X > 15), but p = 0.7 and 0.6 respectively for this question.

n = total number of sample spaces = 25 houses sampled

x = Number of successes required = more than 15

p = probability that a house has smoke detectors = 0.70, then 0.60

q = probability of failure = probability that a house does NOT have smoke detectors = 1 - p = 1 - 0.70 = 0.30

And 1 - 0.60 = 0.40

P(X > 15) = sum of probabilities from P(X = 15) to P(X = 25)

When p = 0.70, P(X > 15) = 0.8105639765 = 0.8106

When p = 0.60, P(X > 15) = 0.42461701767 = 0.4246

c) How do the "error probabilities" of parts (a) and (b) change if the value 15 in the decision rule is replaced by 14.

The error probabilities include the probability of the claim being false.

When X = 15

(Error probability when p = 0.80) = 0.0173

when p = 0.70, error probability = P(X ≤ 15) = 1 - P(X > 15) = 1 - 0.8106 = 0.1894

when p = 0.60, error probability = 1 - 0.4246 = 0.5754

When X = 14

(Error probability when p = 0.80) = P(X ≤ 14) = 0.00555

when p = 0.70, error probability = P(X ≤ 14) = 0.0978

when p = 0.60, error probability = P(X ≤ 14) = 0.4142

The error probabilities are evidently lower when 15 is replaced with 14 in the calculations.

n=200 represent the random sample taken

X=12 represent the potatoes with major defects

[tex]\hat p=\frac{12}{200}=0.06[/tex] estimated proportion of potatoes with major defects

[tex]p_o=0.10[/tex] is the value that we want to test

z would represent the statistic

[tex]p_v[/tex] represent the p value

Hypothesis to test

We want to check if the true proportion is less than 0.10 so then the system of hypothesis are:  

Null hypothesis:[tex]p\geq 0.1[/tex]  

Alternative hypothesis:[tex]p < 0.10[/tex]  

The statistic is given by:

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

Replacing the info given we got:

[tex]z=\frac{0.06-0.10}{\sqrt{\frac{0.10(1-0.10)}{200}}}=-1.89[/tex]  

And the p value would be given by:

[tex]p_v =P(z<-1.89)=0.0294[/tex]  

Considering the hypothesis tested, the p-value is of 0.0294.

The null hypothesis is:

[tex]H_0: p = 0.1[/tex]

The alternative hypothesis is:

[tex]H_a: p < 0.1[/tex]

The test statistic is given by:

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

In which:

[tex]\overline{p}[/tex] is the sample proportion. p is the proportion tested at the null hypothesis. n is the sample size.

For this problem, the parameters are:

[tex]p = 0.1, n = 200, \overline{p} = \frac{12}{200} = 0.06[/tex]

The value of the test statistic is:

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

[tex]z = \frac{0.06 - 0.1}{\sqrt{\frac{0.1(0.9)}{200}}}[/tex]

[tex]z = -1.89[/tex]

The p-value for this test is the probability of finding a sample proportion of 0.06 or below, which is the p-value of z = -1.89.

Looking at the z-table, z = -1.89 has a p-value of 0.0294.

Answers

Answer:

The probability that a search of 900 randomly selected vehicles will find more than 175 with undeclared goods.

P( x > 175) = 0.0256

Step-by-step explanation:

Step(i):-

Given sample size 'n' = 900

The estimated proportion 'p' = 0.17

Mean of the binomial distribution

                       μ = n p = 900 × 0.17 = 153

Standard deviation of the binomial distribution

                     σ = [tex]\sqrt{npq} = \sqrt{900 X 0.17 X 0.83} = 11.26[/tex]

Step(ii):-

Let 'X' be the random variable of normal distribution

mean  μ= 153 and σ = 11.26

Given X = 175

[tex]Z = \frac{175-153}{11.268} = 1.95[/tex]

The probability that a search of 900 randomly selected vehicles will find more than 175 with undeclared goods.

P( x > 175) = P( Z> 1.95)

                = 1- P( Z < 1.95)

                =   1  - ( 0.5 +A( 1.95))

               =   0.5 - A( 1.95)

              =   0.5 - 0.4744

              = 0.0256

Conclusion:-

The probability that a search of 900 randomly selected vehicles will find more than 175 with undeclared goods.

The sum of the 3rd term and 4th term of an arithmetic sequence is 18. The 7th term exceeds the 5th term by 14. Find the first term and common difference. ​

Answers

Answer:

First term = -8.5.

Common difference = 7.

Step-by-step explanation:

The third term = a1 + 2d where a1 = first term and d is the common difference so we have

a1 + 2d + a1 + 3d = 18

2a1 + 5d = 18............(1)

Also:

7th term - 5th term = 14 giving

a1 + 6d - ( a1 + 4d) = 14

2d = 14

d = 7.

So the common difference is 7 and substituting for d in (1) we have:

2a1 + 5*7 = 18

2a1 =  18-35 = -17

a1 = -8.5.

The first term and the common difference of the sequence are -8.5 and 7 respectively.

The sum of the 3rd term and 4th term of an arithmetic sequence is 18.

Using Arithmetic progression formula,

aₙ = a + (n- 1)d

where

n = nth term

a = first term

d = common difference

a₃ = a + 2d

a₄ = a + 3d

Therefore,

a + 3d + (a + 2d) = 18

2a + 5d = 18

The 7th term exceeds the 5th term by 14. Therefore,

a₅ = a + 4d

a₆ = a + 6d

a + 6d - (a + 4d) = 14

a + 6d - a - 4d  = 14

2d = 14

d = 14 / 2

d = 7

2a + 5d = 18

2a + 5(7) = 18

2a + 35 = 18

2a  = 18 - 35

2a = -17

a = -17 / 2

a = -8.5

Phil has $20,000, part of which he invests at 8% interest and the rest at 6%. If the total income from the two investments was $1460, how much did he invest at 6%?

Answers

Answer: 7000

Step-by-step explanation:

Let the amount invested in 8% account be P1 and the amount invested in 6% account be P2

. If the total amount invested is $20,000 then:

P1+P2=20,000. (Eq. 1)

The interest earned in one year from the 8% account is:

I1=0.08P1

and the interest earned in one year from the 6% account is:

I2=0.06P2

If the total interest earned is $1460, then:

I1+I2=1460

0.08P1+0.06P2=1460

(Eq. 2) From Eq. 1 :

P1=20000−P2

Substituting this into Eq. 2:

0.08 (20000−P2) + 0.06P2 = 1460

1600 − 0.08P2 + 0.06P2 = 1460

0.02P2 = 140

P2 = 140 / 0.02

P2 = 7000

Hence, he invested $7000 at the rate of 6%.

given;

previous year price of gas= $4.35

price of gas has been increased by 30%

now,price of gas in present year=?

we have;

price of gas in present year=priceof

previous year+30%of price of previous year.

so ,price of gas in present year=4.35+30%of4.35

=$4.35+30/100×4.35

=$4.35+1.305

= $5.655. ans....

therefore, the price of gas in present year is ;$5.655.

A rock falls off a balcony. It's height (in feet) is given by the formula f(x)=-16t^2+13.4t+120, where t is measured in seconds. How long will it take the rock to hit the ground? Round your answers to the nearest three decimal places.

Answers

Answer:

  3.189 seconds

Step-by-step explanation:

You want f(t) = 0, so ...

  0 = -16t^2 +13.4t +120

  0 = t^2 -0.8375t -7.5 . . . . divide by -16

  0 = (t^2 -0.8375t +0.41875^2) -7.5 -0.41875^2 . . . . complete the square*

  0 = (t -0.41875)^2 -7.6753515625 . . . . write as a square

  √7.6753515625 = t -0.41875 . . . . . . . . add 7.67... and take positive root

  t = 0.41875 +√7.6753515625 ≈ 3.189192 . . . . add 0.41875

It will take the rock about 3.189 seconds to hit the ground.

_____

* We complete the square by adding the square of half the coefficient of the linear term (= (-0.8375/2)^2) inside parentheses and subtracting the same amount outside parentheses. This gives a form inside parentheses that is ...

  (t^2 -2at +a^2) = (t -a)^2

Completing the square is complicated a little bit by a leading coefficient that is not 1. That is why we divided by -16 first.

_____

Comment on the question

We note that the rock "falls" from the 120 foot high balcony by first traveling upward at a rate of 13.4 feet per second. We also note that the height function is written f(x), but uses t as the variable. That is, it should be f(t) = ...

A tire manufacturer is measuring the margin of error in the thickness of their tires to make sure it is within safety limits. Overall, the tires' thickness is normally distributed with a mean of 0.45 inches and a standard deviation of 0.05 inches. What thickness separates the lowest 5% of the means from the highest 95% in a sample size of 65 tires

Answers

Answer:

Z = -1.65

[tex]\bar x \approx 0.44 \ inches[/tex]

Step-by-step explanation:

The main objective is to compute the data for the Z value and determine the [tex]\bar x[/tex] of the sample distribution

Given that;

the tires' thickness is normally distributed  with a mean μ = 0.45 in

standard deviation σ = 0.05 in

sample size  =  65 tires

Also; we are being told that the  thickness separates the lowest 5% of the means from the highest 95%

P(Z < Z) =0.05

From the Z- table

P(Z < -1.645) = 0.05

Z = -1.65

Similarly;

Let consider [tex]\bar x[/tex]  to be the sample mean;

Then:

mean [tex](\mu_{\bar x}) = \mu = 0.45[/tex]

standard deviation[tex](\sigma_{\bar x} ) = \dfrac{\sigma}{\sqrt{n}}[/tex]

[tex]=\dfrac{0.05}{\sqrt{65}}[/tex]

= 0.00620174

By applying the Z-score formula:

x =  μ + ( Z × σ )

[tex]\bar x = \mu _{\bar x} +(Z * \sigma _{\bar x})[/tex]

[tex]\bar x = 0.45 + (-1.65 *0.00620174)[/tex]

[tex]\bar x= 0.439767129[/tex]

[tex]\bar x \approx 0.44 \ inches[/tex]

What is the sampling method used in the following scenario? The marketing manager for an electronics chain store wants information about the ages of its customers. Over the next two weeks, at each store location, 100 randomly selected customers are given questionnaires to fill out asking for information about age, as well as about other variables of interest.

Answers

Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:

The method applied in this scenario is called simple random sampling. A sample of 100 customers is chosen from a larger population of customers and each customer has the same chance of being selected for the survey at any given time. Also, the chance of selecting 100 customers from each store is the same during the sampling process. The order of sampling at each store does not follow a certain order, thus, It is different from systematic random sampling.

Answer:

  I. and II. are correct

Step-by-step explanation:

The line y=0 is a horizontal asymptote in both directions, so ...

  [tex]\lim\limits_{x\to -\infty}{f(x)}=\lim\limits_{x\to\infty}{f(x)}=0[/tex]

The function value f(0) is 0, so the limit is the same from either direction:

  [tex]\lim\limits_{x\to 0^-}{f(x)}=\lim\limits_{x\to 0^+}{f(x)}=0[/tex]

The expression for statement III can be simplified:

  [tex]\dfrac{f(x)-\dfrac{1}{2}}{x-1}=\dfrac{\dfrac{x}{1+x^2}-\dfrac{1}{2}}{x-1}=\dfrac{2x-(1+x^2)}{2(1+x^2)(x-1)}=\dfrac{-(x-1)^2}{2(x-1)(x^2+1)}\\\\=\dfrac{1-x}{2(x^2+1)}[/tex]

The limit of this is 0 from either direction, so the limit does exist at x=1.

O It is vertically stretched by a factor of 200 and shifted 10 units right

Answers

Answer:

It is vertically stretched by a factor of 200 and shifted 10 units right

Step-by-step explanation:

Suppose we have a function f(x).

a*f(x), a > 1, is vertically stretching f(x) a units. Otherwise, if a < 1, we are vertically compressing f(x) by a units.

f(x - a) is shifting f(x) a units to the right.

f(x + a) is shifting f(x) a units to the left.

In this question:

Initially: [tex]f(x) = \frac{1}{x}[/tex]

Then, first we shift, end up with:

[tex]f(x+10) = \frac{1}{x + 10}[/tex]

f was shifted 10 units to the left.

Finally,

[tex]200f(x+10) = \frac{200}{x + 100}[/tex]

It was vertically stretched by a factor of 200.

So the correct answer is:

It is vertically stretched by a factor of 200 and shifted 10 units right

If a square with a width of 30 feet a length of 72 feet, and the diagonal is 78 feet, would the square have right angles. Yes or No answer please explain

Answers

Yes. Use the Pythagorean theorem. 30 would be a. 72 would be B. 78 would be C.
Formula:
A^2 + B^2= C^2
A squared Plus B squared equals C squared

30 squared is 900
72 squared is 5184
900+5184 = 6084

78 squared is 6084

Therefore the triangle has a right angle.
