Banking fees have received much attention during the recent economic recession as banks look for ways to recover from the crisis. A sample of 41 customers paid an average fee of ​$12.22 per month on their​ interest-bearing checking accounts. Assume the population standard deviation is ​$1.86. Complete parts a and b below.
a. Construct a 95% confidence interval to estimate the average fee for the population.
b. What is the margin of error for this interval?

Answers

Answer 1

Answer:

a) The 95% confidence interval to estimate the average fee for the population is between $11.65 and $12.79

b) $0.57

Step-by-step explanation:

We have that to find our [tex]\alpha[/tex] level, that is the subtraction of 1 by the confidence interval divided by 2. So:

[tex]\alpha = \frac{1-0.95}{2} = 0.025[/tex]

Now, we have to find z in the Ztable as such z has a pvalue of [tex]1-\alpha[/tex].

So it is z with a pvalue of [tex]1-0.025 = 0.975[/tex], so [tex]z = 1.96[/tex]

Now, find the margin of error M as such

[tex]M = z*\frac{\sigma}{\sqrt{n}}[/tex]

In which [tex]\sigma[/tex] is the standard deviation of the population and n is the size of the sample.

[tex]M = 1.96*\frac{1.86}{\sqrt{41}} = 0.57[/tex]

So the answer for b) is $0.57.

The lower end of the interval is the sample mean subtracted by M. So it is 12.22 - 0.57 = $11.65

The upper end of the interval is the sample mean added to M. So it is 12.22 + 0.57 = $12.79

The 95% confidence interval to estimate the average fee for the population is between $11.65 and $12.79

What is the approximate value for the modal daily sales?

Answers

Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:

Hello!

The table shows the daily sales (in $1000) of shopping mall for some randomly selected  days

Sales 1.1-1.5 1.6-2.0 2.1-2.5 2.6-3.0 3.1-3.5 3.6-4.0 4.1-4.5

Days 18 27 31 40 56 55 23

Use it to answer questions 13 and 14.

13. What is the approximate value for the modal daily sales?

To determine the Mode of a data set arranged in a frequency table you have to identify the modal interval first, this is, the class interval in which the Mode is included. Remember, the Mode is the value with most observed frequency, so logically, the modal interval will be the one that has more absolute frequency. (in this example it will be the sales values that were observed for most days)

The modal interval is [3.1-3.5]

Now using the following formula you can calculate the Mode:

[tex]Md= Li + c[\frac{(f_{max}-f_{prev})}{(f_{max}-f_{prev})(f_{max}-f_{post})} ][/tex]

Li= Lower limit of the modal interval.

c= amplitude of modal interval.

fmax: absolute frequency of modal interval.

fprev: absolute frequency of the previous interval to the modal interval.

fpost: absolute frequency of the posterior interval to the modal interval.

[tex]Md= 3,100 + 400[\frac{(56-40)}{(56-40)+(56-55)} ]= 3,476.47[/tex]

A. $3,129.41 B. $2,629.41 C. $3,079.41 D. $3,123.53

Of all options the closest one to the estimated mode is A.

14. The approximate median daily sales is …

To calculate the median you have to identify its position first:

For even samples: PosMe= n/2= 250/2= 125

Now, by looking at the cumulative absolute frequencies of the intervals you identify which one contains the observation 125.

F(1)= 18

F(2)= 18+27= 45

F(3)= 45 + 31= 76

F(4)= 76 + 40= 116

F(5)= 116 + 56= 172 ⇒ The 125th observation is in the fifth interval [3.1-3.5]

[tex]Me= Li + c[\frac{PosMe-F_{i-1}}{f_i} ][/tex]

Li: Lower limit of the median interval.

c: Amplitude of the interval

PosMe: position of the median

F(i-1)= accumulated absolute frequency until the previous interval

fi= simple absolute frequency of the median interval.

[tex]Me= 3,100+400[\frac{125-116}{56} ]= 3164.29[/tex]

A. $3,130.36 B. $2,680.36 C. $3,180.36 D. $2,664

Of all options the closest one to the estimated mode is C.

Fertilizer: A new type of fertilizer is being tested on a plot of land in an orange grove, to see whether it increases the amount of fruit produced. The mean number of pounds of fruit on this plot of land with the old fertilizer was 380 pounds. Agriculture scientists believe that the new fertilizer may change the yield. State the appropriate null and alternative hypotheses.

Answers

Answer:

The null and alternative hypothesis for this problem are:

[tex]H_0:\mu=380\\\\H_a: \mu>380[/tex]

Step-by-step explanation:

The alternative hypothesis shows the claim of the researchers. In this case, that the new type of fertilizer significantly increase the actual yield with the old fertilizer:

[tex]H_a: \mu>380[/tex]

The null hypothesis is the hypothesis to be nullified, so it states that the claim is not true and the yield is the same (or, at least, not significantly higher) as with the old fertilizer:

[tex]H_0: \mu=380[/tex]

Consider the following geometric series.
[infinity]∑n=1 (−8)n−19n
a) Find the common ratio.
b) Determine whether the geometric series is convergent or divergent.
c) If it is convergent, find its sum. (If the quantity diverges, answer diverges.)

Answers

Answer:

a) -8/9

b) The series is a convergent series

c) 1/17

Step-by-step explanation:

The series a+ar+ar²+ar³⋯ =∑ar^(n−1) is called a geometric series, and r is called the common ratio.

If −1<r<1, the geometric series is convergent and its sum is expressed as ∑ar^(n−1) = a/1-r

a is the first tern of the series.

a) Rewriting the series ∑(-8)^(n−1)/9^n given in the form ∑ar^(n−1) we have;

∑(-8)^(n−1)/9^n

= ∑(-8)^(n−1)/9•(9)^n-1

= ∑1/9 • (-8/9)^(n−1)

From the series gotten, it can be seen in comparison that a = 1/9 and r = -8/9

The common ratio r = -8/9

b) Remember that for the series to be convergent, -1<r<1 i.e r must be less than 1 and since our common ratio which is -8/9 is less than 1, this implies that the series is convergent.

c) Since the sun of the series tends to infinity, we will use the formula for finding the sum to infinity of a geometric series.

S∞ = a/1-r

Given a = 1/9 and r = -8/9

S∞ = (1/9)/1-(-8/9)

S∞ = (1/9)/1+8/9

S∞ = (1/9)/17/9

S∞ = 1/9×9/17

S∞ = 1/17

The sum of the geometric series is 1/17

A sports car manufacturer paints its cars silver, white, black, and red in the following proportions: ?
Color: Silver White Black Red
Proportion: .2 .3 .1 .4
We know that 40% of these cars are manufactured with tan leather upholstery while the remaining 60% are manufactured with gray leather.
A. Assuming that the choice of exterior color and leather color are independent, what is the probability that a randomly selected sports car from this manufacturer will be white with gray upholstery?
B. Assuming that we know the car has tan upholstery, what is the probability that the car is either silver or white?

Answers

Answer:

A. The probability that a randomly selected sports car from this manufacturer will be white with gray upholstery is P=0.12.

B. Assuming that we know the car has tan upholstery, the probability that the car is either silver or white is P=0.50.

Step-by-step explanation:

We first start by stating that the events "exterior color" and "leather color" are independent, so the probability of the outcomes of each event is not affected by the outcomes of the other event.

A. The probability of having a car that is white (W) with gray upholstery (G) is equal to the probability of having a car that is white multiplied by the probability of having a car with gray leather upholstery. Mathematically, this is:

[tex]P(\text{W\&G})=P(W)\cdot P(G)=0.3\cdot 0.4=0.12[/tex]

B. As the events are independent, the probability of having a silver or white car, given that the car has tan upholstery, is the same as the probabiltiy of having a silver or white car:

[tex]P(S\,or\,W | T)=P(S\,or\,W)=P(S)+P(W)=0.20+0.30=0.50[/tex]

Which system of linear inequalities is represented by the
graph?
O y2x - 2 and y = x + 1
O y< x-2 and y> x + 1
O y < x-2 and y? x + 1
O y> x-2 and y < x + 1

Answers

Answer:

answer c.

y <= x - 2 and y >= x + 1

Step-by-step explanation:

You wrote the given answers wrong. Here are the right choices that are given as possible solutions:

O y >= x - 2 and y <= x + 1

O y < x - 2 and y > x + 1

O y <= x - 2 and y >= x + 1

O y > x - 2 and y < x + 1

The graph clearly shows two lines and the intended area is shaded and it is clearly including the lines.

Because the lines are included in the solution, by that alone, you can exclude two answers b and d.

Now you still need to decide between the in equalities in answer a and c. Both lines have a gradient of 1, so that does not help to distinguish...

The y intercept of the top line is at y= +1 and the shaded area is bigger then that....

So y >= x + 1 is the right inequality.

By now it is absolutely clear that answer c must be the right answer and you are done!

EXTRA

Although you have deduced beyond any doubt, that answer c must be the right answer, you still can check your findings 'to be sure' by looking and checking for the bottom line...

BE CAREFUL, ONLY DO THIS IF YOU HAVE ENOUGH TIME. Again, you already know the right answer, and this is "just to confirm", so what is the harm in that?

By double checking yourself, it will sort of "undermine" your appproach. Basically you are doing something which is strictly spoken not nessasary any more. So I urge you to basically step over the urge to check yourself, and stick to your answer.

However, if you can not resit the temptation of checking to see if you actually found the right answer, you could test the y intercept of the bottom line, which is at y= -2 and the shaded area is smalller then that....

So y <= x - 2 is the right inequality.

So again, it is now confirmed that answer c is indeed the right answer.

The correct system of linear inequalities is represented by the graph are,

⇒ y > x - 2

⇒ y < x + 1

What is mean by Inequality?

A relation by which we can compare two or more mathematical expression is called an inequality.

Given that;

The system of linear inequalities is shown in graph.

Hence, By graph;

The value of y - intercepts are,

⇒ - 2 and - 1

Hence, The correct system of linear inequalities is represented by the graph are,

⇒ y > x - 2

⇒ y < x + 1

Thus, The correct system of linear inequalities is represented by the graph are,

⇒ y > x - 2

⇒ y < x + 1
