In an opinion poll, 25% of a random sample of 200 people said that they were strongly opposed to having a state lottery. The standard error of the sample proportion is approximately_________.

Answer:

This is true.

Step-by-step explanation:

This would be known as the transitive property.

If A = B, and B = C, then A must equal C

Let me explain.

If A = 2, and B = 2, and A = C, C must also equal 2.

If something is equal then it's the same, so it makes sense for A = C if B is the same value as A and C.

A good way to recognize the property is if you see a number/letter appear twice, and they both equal different things. Then you see the two different letters are equal to each other. Hopefully this helped some.

The principle of independence is not transitive. If A and B are independent, and B and C are independent, it does not necessarily mean that A and C are independent. This can be proven through a counterexample involving coin tosses.

The statement 'If A is independent of B and B is independent of C, then A is independent of C' is not necessarily true. This is so because independence is not transitive.

Consider the following counterexample:

In this example, event A (getting head in first toss) is independent of B (getting tail in first toss), and B is independent of C (getting head in second toss). However, A is clearly not independent of C because both are 'getting head' on their respective tosses.

The slope of the budget line for a consumer who has $100 to spend per day, with product A at $7/unit on the horizontal axis and product B at $15/unit on the vertical axis, is -0.47. More consumption of one good requires a sacrifice in the consumption of the other.

The subject of this question is the slope of the budget line in microeconomics, which represents the trade-off between two goods, product A and product B. It can be determined by dividing the price of the good on the horizontal axis (product A) by the price of the good on the vertical axis (product B). Hence, the slope of the budget line is $7/$15 = 0.47 (rounded to two decimal places). The slope is negative reflecting the fact that to obtain more of one good, a consumer needs to give up some of the other.

The slope of the budget line is -7/15 or approximately -0.467.

       In this case, the slope = - (7 / 15).

After calculating, we get the slope as - 7/15 or approximately -0.467. This slope indicates the rate at which the consumer can trade product A for product B while staying within their budget.

Final answer:

The statement is true; the centroid of a triangle is the point that lies 2/3 of the way from each vertex to the midpoint of the opposite side. The centroid is the same point for all three vertices, which can be shown using vector operations that equate to (A+B+C)/3 for a triangle with vertices A, B, and C.

Explanation:

The statement that points lying 2/3 of the way from a vertex to the midpoint of the opposite side for any triangle in ℝ² (the real number plane) are all the same point, and this point is called the centroid of the triangle, is True. To prove this, consider a triangle ABC with vertices A, B, and C. If M is the midpoint of side BC, N is the midpoint of side AC, and O is the midpoint of side AB, then the points two-thirds of the way from the vertices A, B, and C to the midpoints of the opposite sides, respectively, can be represented by the vectors (2M+A)/3, (2N+B)/3, and (2O+C)/3.

Applying the midpoint formula and vector addition, we find that these points are equivalent to (B+C)/3, (A+C)/3, and (A+B)/3 respectively, which, when simplified, all yield to (A+B+C)/3, illustrating that the points coincide and thus prove the existence of a single centroid.

In a geometric context, the centroid is the point where the triangle’s medians intersect, and it also serves as the triangle's center of mass. The centroid divides each median in a 2:1 ratio, with the larger portion being closer to the vertex. This property is intrinsic to triangles and can be demonstrated using vector algebra or geometric arguments.

The average revenue per passenger = E(x) = $15.70

[tex]\sigma = \sqrt{\sigma^{2}} = \sqrt{398} \approx 19.95[/tex]

b)$1,884 ± $20

Step-by-step explanation:

a)

Refer  attached fig for probability model,

i)The average revenue per passenger = E(x) = $15.70

[tex]\sigma^{2} = V[X] \sum _{x} (x-\mu )^{2} \times P(X=x)[/tex]

[tex]\sigma^{2} = (0-15.7)^{2} \times 0.54+(25-15.7)^{2} \times 0.34 +(60-15.7)^{2} \times 0.12[/tex]

[tex]\sigma^{2} = 133.1 + 29.4 + 235.5 = 398[/tex]

Standard Deviation = [tex]\sigma = \sqrt{\sigma^{2}} = \sqrt{398} \approx 19.95[/tex]

ii)  average revenue per passenger = E(x) = $15.70

b) Revenue should the airline expect for a flight of 120 passengers

revenue = 120 * $15.70 = $1,884 ± $20 (or 19.95 rounded up)

use same σ

The average revenue per passenger is $15.2 and the standard deviation is $18.45. For a flight of 120 passengers, the airline may expect around $1824 with standard deviation of $202.33. We're assuming that each passenger's baggage habits are independent.

To solve this, first we'll construct a probability model. Let X be a random variable denoting the revenue from each passenger. Then X can take three possible outcomes: $0 (with probability 0.54), $25 (with probability 0.34) or $60 (with probability 0.12).

The average revenue from each passenger E(X), also known as the expected value of X, is calculated as follows:

E(X) = 0*0.54 + 25*0.34 + 60*0.12 = $15.2

The standard deviation of X, denoted σ(X), is computed as follows:

σ(X) = sqrt[(0-15.2)^2*0.54 + (25-15.2)^2*0.34  + (60-15.2)^2*.12] = $18.45

Given this, for a flight of 120 people, the total expected revenue is 120*$15.2 = $1824 and the standard deviation of total revenue would be sqrt(120)*$18.45 = $202.33.

The underlying assumption here is that the baggage habits of passengers are independent, which is reasonable in this case.

Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:

The math club makes 35 bars of laundry soap a week and sells these at $20 each. This means that the total number of bars of laundry soap made in a 4 week month would be

4 × 35 = 140 bars

If the pupils found that 6 bars were destroyed by mice, the total number of bars of soap left would be

140 - 6 = 134 bars

Therefore, the total sale at the end of a four week month would be

134 × 20 = $2680

The total sales at the end of a 4-week month, given that 6 out of 35 soap bars were destroyed by mice every week and the price of each soap bar is $20, would be $2320.

The math club initially makes 35 bars of soap every week. However, due to the unforeseen mouse problem, 6 bars are rendered unsalable each week. Therefore, the club is effectively selling only 29 bars per week. Because the selling price of each bar is $20, each week's sales amount to 29 bars x $20/bar = $580.

Over 4 weeks, the total sales would then be $580/week x 4 weeks = $2320. So, the total amount of sales at the end of a 4-week month, after accounting for the mice damage, would be $2320.

Answer:approximately 50 years.

Step-by-step explanation:

Let $P represent the initial amount that she deposited. It means that principal,

P = $P

It was compounded annually. This means that it was compounded once in a year. So

n = 1

The rate at which the principal was compounded is 1.4%. So

r = 1.4/100 = 0.014

The formula for compound interest is

A = P(1+r/n)^nt

A = total amount in the account at the end of t years. For the initial amount to double, it means that

A = 2P

Therefore

2P = P (1+0.014/1)^1×t

2P/P = (1.014)^t

2 = (1.014)^t

Taking log to base 10 of both sides, it becomes

Log 2 = log 1.014^t

Log 2 = tlog 1.014

0.301 = 0.006t

t = 0.301/0.006 = 50.2 years

Answer: 51.4 years

Step-by-step explanation:

There is what we call rule of 72 in Accounting to find the time  a sum of money will double if it is compounded annually at any given rate . The formula is given as :

t = [tex]\frac{72}{r}[/tex]

where t is the time and r is the rate.

Answer:

700 children tickets, 950 adult tickets

Step-by-step explanation:

Let x and y be the number of tickets sold for children and adults, respectively. We know that the total number of tickets sold is 1650. So x + y = 1650, or x = 1650 - y

Also the total ticket revenue is $14200, at $12 per adult and $4 per child. We have:

4x + 12y = 14200

We can substitute x = 1650 - y

4(1650 - y) + 12y = 14200

6600 - 4y + 12y = 14200

6600 + 8y = 14200

8y = 14200 - 6600 = 7600

y = 7600 / 8 = 950 adult tickets

x = 1650 - 950 = 700 children tickets

Answer:

a) [tex] P(t) =1600 +50t[/tex]

b) [tex] P(t) = 1600 (1.05)^t[/tex]

Step-by-step explanation:

Assuming the complete question : "A town has a population of 1000 people at time t = 0. In each of the following cases, write a formula for the population, P, of the town as a function of year t. (a) The population increases by 50 people a year. (b) The population increases by 5% a year."

Part a

For this case we can use a linear model in order to estimate the population size since we have a fixed increase each year. So our model would be given by:

[tex] P(t) = P_o + b t[/tex]

Where [tex] b =50[/tex] on this case since represent the increase per year of the slope for the linear model. And the initial amount is [tex] P_o = 1600[/tex], so then the model is:

[tex] P(t) =1600 +50t[/tex]

Part b

For this case we have a rate of increase and when we have this the lineal model is not the most appropiate. So then we can use an exponential model given by:

[tex] P(t) =P_o b^{t}[/tex]

Where [tex] P_o = 1600[/tex] represent the initial population and for this case b is the rate of increase [tex] b = 1+0.05 = 1.05[/tex] since each year we have an increase of 5% and t is the time. So then the model is given by:

[tex] P(t) = 1600 (1.05)^t[/tex]

The population of a town can be calculated through formulas for linear growth (P = P0 + rt) and exponential growth (P = P0 * e^(rt)), depending on whether the population grows by a fixed amount or percentage each year. To use these formulas, the specific growth rate of the town is needed.

The subject of the question is about writing formulas for population growth. Let's denote the initial population as P0, the rate of growth as r and the time in years as t. Here are two common formulas:

To use these formulas, you'd need to know the specific growth rate of the town. It's also important to remember that actual population changes can be more complex and may not follow these exact formulas.

Answer:

I would expect the standard error to decrease, because sample size increases.

Step-by-step explanation:

Standard error on the mean can be calculated using the equation:

[tex]\frac{s}{\sqrt{N}}[/tex]      where

Therefore, if the group makes several more measurements then the sample size increases, which makes the standard error on the mean smaller.  

The standard error is expected to decrease when more measurements are made and used to recalculate it.

The standard error of the mean is a measure of the variability of sample means. As you obtain more measurements and calculate the standard error again using all the measurements, you would expect the standard error to decrease. This is because the more measurements you have, the more precise your estimate of the true mean becomes.

When calculating the standard error, you divide the standard deviation by the square root of the sample size. The standard deviation measures the variability of the individual measurements, while the square root of the sample size represents the precision of the mean. As the sample size increases, the precision increases, resulting in a smaller standard error.

For example, let's say you initially had a small sample size of 10 and calculated a standard error of 2. If you then collect more measurements and increase the sample size to 20, you would expect the standard error to decrease, potentially to a value smaller than 2.

Final answer:

To model the population growth of deer in a national park, an exponential function P(t) = 200 * (1 + 0.07)^t is used. This reflects a starting number of 200 deer, with growth at a rate of 7% per year, allowing for future population predictions.

Explanation:

A wildlife biologist determines that there are approximately 200 deer in a region of a national park. The population grows at a rate of 7% per year. To model the expected population using an exponential function, we use the general formula for exponential growth P(t) = P0 * (1 + r)^t, where:

Given that the initial population (P0) is 200 deer and the annual growth rate (r) is 7% or 0.07, the exponential growth model to predict future population sizes can be written as P(t) = 200 * (1 + 0.07)^t.

This function can be used to calculate the expected number of deer in this region of the national park for any number of years into the future, allowing biologists and park management to make informed decisions regarding wildlife conservation and management.

Answer:Lilah's speed on the train is 60 mph and Mason's speed is 75 mph

Step-by-step explanation:

Let x represent the speed of Lilah.

Lilah is moving from Portland to Seattle. It takes her 3 hours to go by train.

Distance = speed × time

Distance covered by Lilah in moving from Portland to Seattle would be

3 × x = 3x

It takes him 2.4 hours to get to Seattle, driving at 15 miles per hour faster than the speed of the train.

It means that Mason's speed is

x + 15

Distance covered by Mason would be

2.4(x + 15) = 2.4x + 36

Since the distance from Portland to Seattle is the same, then

3x = 2.4x + 36

3x - 2.4x = 36

0.6x = 36 x = 36/0.6 = 60 mph

Mason's speed would be 60 + 15 = 75 mph

Answer: 55 performances are needed to break even.

Step-by-step explanation:

Let x represent the number of musical performances that are made.

Producing a musical costs $88,000 plus $5900 per performance. This means that the total cost of x musical performances would be

88000 + 5900x

One sold-out performance earns $7500 in revenue. If every performance sells out, it means that the total revenue would be

7500 × x = 7500x

In order to break even, total cost would be equal to total revenue. Therefore,

7500x = 88000 + 5900x

7500x - 5900x = 88000

1600x = 88000

x = 88000/1600 = 55

Answer:

(-138) is the answer.

Step-by-step explanation:

Perfect square numbers between 15 and 25 inclusive are 16 and 25.

Sum of perfect square numbers 16 and 25 = 16 + 25 = 41

Sum of the remaining numbers between 15 and 25 inclusive means sum of the numbers from 17 to 24 plus 15.

Since sum of an arithmetic progression is defined by the expression

[tex]S_{n}=\frac{n}{2}[2a+(n-1)d][/tex]

Where n = number of terms

a = first term of the sequence

d = common difference

[tex]S_{8}=\frac{8}{2} [2\times 17+(8-1)\times 1][/tex]

   = 4(34 + 7)

   = 164

Sum of 15 + [tex]S_{8}[/tex] = 15 + 164 = 179

Now the difference between 41 and sum of perfect squares between 15 and 25 inclusive = [tex]41-179[/tex]

= -138

Therefore, answer is (-138).

The sum of the perfect squares (16 and 25) between 15 and 25 is 41. The sum of all the other numbers between 15 and 25 is 179. So, when we subtract 179 from 41, we get -138.

To find the answer, we first need to identify which numbers between 15 and 25, inclusive, are perfect squares. A perfect square is a number which can be expressed as the product of an integer with itself. In this range, 16 and 25 are the perfect squares.

The sum of these perfect squares is 16 + 25 = 41.

Next, we need to find the sum of all the other numbers between 15 and 25, inclusive, that are not perfect squares. These numbers are 15, 17, 18, 19, 20, 21, 22, 23, and 24. Adding these numbers together gives a sum of 179.

Now subtract this second sum from the first to get the answer: 41 - 179 = -138

Integrating an equation from boundary x₀ to x₁ gives you the area underneath that boundary.

So to find the boundary that split the equation into 2 equal areas, the boundary must lie somewhere between the 2 place to want to split up. In other word, a is the end boundaries of the first integral and the starting boundary of the second integral.

Since the two area must equal to each other, set the two integral equal to each other and solve for a.

The value of a for which x=a will divide the enclosed area into two equal areas will be 2.43.

Let us say x=a divides the region into two equal areas.

From the attached diagram,

Point D≡(a,8)

Point E≡(a, a)

The length of DE will be 8-a.

As we know that triangles ADE and ABO will be similar

So, [tex]\frac{areaADE}{areaABO} = (\frac{DE}{BO}) ^{2}[/tex]

[tex]\frac{1}{2} = (\frac{a-8}{8}) ^{2}[/tex]

[tex]a^2-16a+32 = 0[/tex]

a =13.66(Not Possible)

a= 2.34

Therefore, The value of a for which x=a will divide the enclosed area into two equal areas will be 2.43.

Answer:

The equation representing the problem is [tex]x=\frac{24\times 6}{32}[/tex].

Mr. Patel used 5 bags of seeds.

Step-by-step explanation:

Given:

Number of times bird feeder refilled =24

Number of cups of seeds used each time = 6 cups

Number of seeds each bag holds = 32 cups.

We need to write the equation to represent the problem.

Solution.

Let the total number of bag of seed be 'x'.

First we will find the Total number of cups of seeds used.

Now we can say that;

Total number of cups of seeds used can be calculated by multiplying Number of times bird feeder refilled by Number of cups of seeds used each time.

framing in equation form we get;

Total number of cups of seeds used = [tex]24\times6 \ cups[/tex]

Now We know that;

1 bag holds = 32 cups

Total number of bags required = [tex]24\times6 \ cups[/tex]

So we can say that;

Total number of bags required is equal to Total number of cups of seeds used divided by number of seed hold by each bag.

framing in equation form we get;

[tex]x=\frac{24\times 6}{32}[/tex]

Hence the equation representing the problem is [tex]x=\frac{24\times 6}{32}[/tex].

On solving we get;

[tex]x=4.5[/tex]

Since bags cannot be bought in half or in decimal value.

Hence we can say Mr. Patel used 5 bags of seeds.
