A CBS News/New York Times opinion poll asked 1,190 adults whether they would prefer balancing the federal budget over cutting taxes; 59% of those asked said "yes." Suppose that in fact 62% of all adults favor balancing the budget over cutting taxes. If this poll was not biased, what is the probability you would get p^=0.59 or less?

Answers

Answer 1

Using the normal distribution and the central limit theorem, it is found that there is a 0.0166 = 1.66% probability of a sample proportion of 0.59 or less.

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 sampling proportions of a proportion p in a sample of size n has mean [tex]\mu = p[/tex] and standard error [tex]s = \sqrt{\frac{p(1 - p)}{n}}[/tex]

In this problem:

1,190 adults were asked, hence [tex]n = 1190[/tex]In fact 62% of all adults favor balancing the budget over cutting taxes, hence [tex]p = 0.62[/tex].

The mean and the standard error are given by:

[tex]\mu = p = 0.62[/tex]

[tex]s = \sqrt{\frac{p(1 - p)}{n}} = \sqrt{\frac{0.62(0.38)}{1190}} = 0.0141[/tex]

The probability of a sample proportion of 0.59 or less is the p-value of Z when X = 0.59, hence:

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

By the Central Limit Theorem

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

[tex]Z = \frac{0.59 - 0.62}{0.0141}[/tex]

[tex]Z = -2.13[/tex]

[tex]Z = -2.13[/tex] has a p-value of 0.0166.

0.0166 = 1.66% probability of a sample proportion of 0.59 or less.

10. John is mixing paint.He uses black, green and blue in the ratio 6:3: 1. How much of black green and blue paint is needed to make a mixture of paint of 500ml.

Answers

The given ratio becomes 6x : 3x : x.

6x = black paint

3x = green paint

x = blue paint

6x + 3x + x = 500

10x = 500

x = 500/10

x = 50

6x = 6(50) = 300

3x = 3(50) = 150

x = 50

Answer:

300 ml of the black paint.

150 ml of the green paint.

50 ml of the blue paint.

John borrowed $5,000 from his parents to buy a car. He made a one-time payment of $1,500 and then he is going to pay his mother $250 each month. How long will it take for him to pay off the car?

Answers

Answer:

14 months

Step-by-step explanation:

5000=1,500+250m

m=months

5000-1500= 3500

3500=250m

3500÷250=14

14=m

Answer:

14 months

Step-by-step explanation:

He already payed $1,500 of the $5,000 payment.

$5,000 - $1,500

So that means he has $3,500 left to pay.

If he is going to pay $250 per month.

Then do $3,500 divided by $250.

$3,500 ÷ $250

Which is 14 months.

After a rotation, A(-3,4) maps to A/4, 3), B(4.-5) maps to BY-5,-4), and C(1,6) maps to C(6.-1). Which rule
describes the rotation?
O RO 90
O Ra 180°
O Ro 270
ORO 360°

Answers

Answer:

3rd option

Step-by-step explanation:

Under a rotation about the origin of 270°

a point (x, y ) → (y, - x ) , then

A (- 3, 4 ) → (4, - 3 )

B (4, - 5 ) → (- 5, - 4 )

C (1, 6 ) → (6, - 1 )

The center of rotation is therefore (h, k) = (1/2, 7/2), and the rule for the rotation is R90 (a 90-degree counterclockwise rotation about the point (1/2, 7/2)).

What is coordinate plane?

The coordinate plane is a two-dimensional plane formed by the intersection of a horizontal number line, called the x-axis, and a vertical number line, called the y-axis.

The given information suggests that each point has been rotated 90 degrees counterclockwise around some point (h, k) on the coordinate plane.

To find this point, we can use the fact that the midpoint of the line segment joining each point to its image must be the center of rotation.

Midpoint of segment AA'/4: ((-3 + 4)/2, (4 + 3)/2) = (1/2, 7/2)

Midpoint of segment BB'/5: ((4 - 5)/2, (-5 - 4)/2) = (-1/2, -9/2)

Midpoint of segment CC'/6: ((1 + 6)/2, (6 - 1)/2) = (7/2, 5/2)

Thus, the center of rotation is therefore (h, k) = (1/2, 7/2), and the rule for the rotation is R90 (a 90-degree counterclockwise rotation about the point (1/2, 7/2)).

The 9 foot center pole makes a right angle with the ground. If a rope goes from the top of the pole to a point on the ground 12 feet away from the base of the pole. how long of a rope is needed?

Answers

The length of the rope needed is 15 feet

Given the following parameters;

Height of the pole = 9 footThe distance from the rope away from the base of the pole is 12 feet

Required

Length of the rope.

To get the length of the rope, you will use the pythagoras theorem expressed as:

c² = a² + b²

Substituting the given parameters:

c² = 9² + 12²

c² =81 + 144

c² = 225

c = √225

c = 15 feet

Therefore the length of the rope needed is 15 feet

The school band sold T-shirts for a fundraiser. They earned $6 profit on each T-shirt minus $4 for flyers. Give verbal description relating the number of T-shirts and the profit. Find the profit for selling 30 T-shirts

Answers

The school band could have a profit of $ 60 for selling 30 T-Shirts.

For the sale of each T-shirt the school band have a net profit of $ 6, of which $ 4 are discounted by concept of flyers and, thus, this band has a final profit of $ 2 for the sale of a T-shirt. The total profit for T-shirt sales equals the product of number of T-shirts sold and the final profit for each T-shirt sold.

Hence, the profit for selling 30 T-shirts is shown below:

At any point does it go through two or more points? Well, its not a function. We can see a vertical line would completly overlap the first graph, it would go through the half circle graph twice, and the circle? Well, that ones rather obvious...

With this test, we can see the only graph that passes the vertical line test is the bottom left graph (or the weird squiggly one)!
