Customers arrive at a movie theater at the advertised movie time only to find that they have to sit through several previews and prepreview ads before the movie starts. Many complain that the time devoted to previews is too long. A preliminary sample conducted by The Wall Street Journal showed that the standard deviation of the amount of time devoted to previews was five minutes. Use that as a planning value for the standard deviation in answering the following questions.a. If we want to estimate the population mean time for previews at movie theaters with a margin of error of 78 seconds, what sample size should be used

Answers

Answer 1

Answer:

57

Step-by-step explanation:

Given that :

Standard deviation (σ) = 5 minutes = (5 *60) = 300 seconds

Margin of Error, E = 78

Assume a confidence interval of 95%;

Using the relation :

((Zα/2 * σ) / E)²

(1 - α)/2 = (1 - 0.95)/2 = 0.05 /2 = 0.025

Z0.025 = 1.96

Sample size = ((1.96 * 300) / 78)²

Sample size = (588 / 78)^2

Sample size = 7.5384615^2

Sample size = 56.828

= 57 samples

6) A garden measures p metres by 3p + 2 metres.
a) Write an expression that describes the perimeter of the garden.
b) The garden has a perimeter of 76 metres. Write an equation to show this.
c) Solve your equation to find the value of p.

ALL WORKING OUT NEEDED

Answers

p = 18.5

Step-by-step explanation:

a. to find perimeter you have to add all the sides together

So if one side is p, and the other side is 3p+2, just add them together like this

p + 3p + 2, then combine the ps so the expression is

4p + 2

b. now you find out the perimeter is 76

So put the original expression of your perimeter and 76 together like this

4p + 2 = 76

c. So now solve the equation

4p + 2 = 76

subtract 2 from both sides to get the ps alone

4p = 74

now divide by 4 to get the p by itself

74 ÷ 4 is 18.5, or 18 1/2

So p = 18.5 or 18 1/2

The amount people who pay for cell phone service varies quite a bit, but the mean

monthly fee is $55 and the standard deviation is $22. The distribution is not Normal.

Many people pay about $30 for plans with 2GB data access and about $60 for 5GB

of data access, but some pay much more for unlimited data access. A sample survey

is designed to ask a simple random sample of 1,000 cell phone users how much they

pay. Let x be the mean amount paid.

Part B: What is the shape of the sampling distribution of x? Justify your answer. (2

Part C: What is the probability that the average cell phone service paid by the

sample of cell phone users will exceed $56? Show your work. (4 points) (10 points)

Answers

Answer:

a) The mean is $55 and the standard deviation is $0.6957

b) The shape of the sampling distribution of x is approximately normal.

c) 0.0749 = 7.49% probability that the average cell phone service paid by the sample of cell phone users will exceed $56.

Step-by-step explanation:

Normal probability distribution

When the distribution is normal, we use the z-score formula.

In a set with mean [tex]\mu[/tex] and standard deviation [tex]\sigma[/tex], the zscore 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 pvalue, we get the probability that the value of the measure is greater than X.

Central Limit Theorem

The Central Limit Theorem estabilishes that, for a normally distributed random variable X, with mean [tex]\mu[/tex] and standard deviation [tex]\sigma[/tex], the sampling distribution of the sample means with size n can be approximated to a normal distribution with mean [tex]\mu[/tex] and standard deviation [tex]s = \frac{\sigma}{\sqrt{n}}[/tex].

For a skewed variable, the Central Limit Theorem can also be applied, as long as n is at least 30.

For a proportion p in a sample of size n, the sampling distribution of the sample proportion will be approximately normal with mean [tex]\mu = p[/tex] and standard deviation [tex]s = \sqrt{\frac{p(1-p)}{n}}[/tex]

In this question:

Mean of the distribution: 55

Standard deviation of the distribution: 22

Sample of 1000.

This means that:

[tex]\mu = 55, \sigma = 22, n = 1000[/tex]

Part A: What are the mean and standard deviation of the sample distribution of X?

By the Central Limit Theorem, the mean is 55 and the standard deviation is [tex]s = \frac{22}{\sqrt{1000}} = 0.6957[/tex].

Part B: What is the shape of the sampling distribution of x?

By the Central Limit Theorem, the shape of the sampling distribution of x is approximately normal.

Part C: What is the probability that the average cell phone service paid by the sample of cell phone users will exceed $56?

This is 1 subtracted by the pvalue of Z when [tex]X = 56[/tex]. So:

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

By the Central Limit Theorem

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

[tex]Z = \frac{56 - 55}{0.6957}[/tex]

[tex]Z = 1.44[/tex]

[tex]Z = 1.44[/tex] has a pvalue of 0.9251

1 - 0.9251 = 0.0749

0.0749 = 7.49% probability that the average cell phone service paid by the sample of cell phone users will exceed $56.

Answers

Answer:

1)  [tex]\mathbf{\sqrt{50}= 5\sqrt{2} }[/tex]

2) [tex]\mathbf{\sqrt{28}= 2\sqrt{7} }[/tex]

3) [tex]\mathbf{\sqrt{252}= 6\sqrt{7} }[/tex]

Step-by-step explanation:

We need to simplify the radicals:

1) [tex]\sqrt{50}[/tex]

First we find prime factors of 50

50 = 2 x 5 x 5

Now,

[tex]\sqrt{50}\\=\sqrt{2\times 5\times 5}\\=\sqrt{2\times 5^2}\\ =\sqrt{2} \sqrt{5^2}\\=5\sqrt{2}[/tex]

So, [tex]\mathbf{\sqrt{50}= 5\sqrt{2} }[/tex]

2) [tex]\sqrt{28}[/tex]

First we find prime factors of 28

28 = 2 x 2 x 7

Now,

[tex]\sqrt{28}\\=\sqrt{2\times 2\times 7}\\=\sqrt{2^2\times 7}\\ =\sqrt{2^2} \sqrt{7}\\=2\sqrt{7}[/tex]

So, [tex]\mathbf{\sqrt{28}= 2\sqrt{7} }[/tex]

3) [tex]\sqrt{252}[/tex]

First we find prime factors of 252

50 = 2 x 2 x 3 x 3 x 7

Now,

[tex]\sqrt{252}\\=\sqrt{2\times 2\times 3\times 3 \times7}\\=\sqrt{2^2\times 3^2 \times7}\\ =\sqrt{2^2} \sqrt{3^2}\sqrt{7} \\=2\times 3\sqrt{7}\\=6\sqrt{7}[/tex]

So, [tex]\mathbf{\sqrt{252}= 6\sqrt{7} }[/tex]

-x + 7 = -4 + 7 = 3

7 - x = 7 - 4 =3

Answers

Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:

We can write the equation 120=25+1/2n where n is the cost of a new guitar. First, we subtract 25 from both sides to get 95=1/2n. Then, we multiply both sides by 2 to get 190=n. Therefore, the cost of a new guitar is $190.

Its a monomial of degree 0

Step-by-step explanation:

pls mark brainliest

Answer:

The expression represents a polynomial. The polynomial is a monomial and has a degree of 1

Step-by-step explanation:

First lets look at the definitions of these words:

Monomial means that there is only one term in the equation

Binomial means there is 2 terms

Trinomial means there is 3

and polynomial means 4 or more

The equation would be a monomial because it only has 1 term in it.

Now lets look at the degree.

To find the degree lets take a look at how to make radicals into exponents

So you have [tex]-\sqrt{2}[/tex]

You know that when you square root something, the degree of the radical sign is 2.

That is not the degree its asking for though. Its asking for the degree of 2

In exponential form the equation is [tex]-2^{\frac{1}{2} }[/tex]

Reason for this being that the numerator is the exponent for whatever is inside the radical sign while the denominator is for the square root symbol.

So if you have [tex]-2^{\frac{3}{4} }[/tex] for example, the radical form is [tex]-\sqrt[4]{2^{3} }[/tex]

So the numerator would be the degree.

If there is no degree for the function, as in you don't see an exponent then that means the exponent = 1

Answers

9514 1404 393

Answer:

  3.65% monthly

Step-by-step explanation:

The same amount is invested for the same period in all accounts, so we only need to determine the effective annual rate in order to compare the accounts.

For compounding annual rate r n times per year, the effective annual rate is ...

  (1 +r/n)^n -1

For the same rate r, larger values of n cause effective rate to be higher. As a consequence, we know that 3.65% compounded quarterly will not have as great a yield as 3.65% compounded monthly. The effective rate for the monthly compounding is ...

  (1 +0.0365/12)^12 -1 = 3.712%

The effective rate for continuous compounding is ...

  e^r -1

For a continuously compounded rate of 3.6%, the effective annual rate is ...

  e^0.036 -1 = 3.666%

This tells us the best yield is in the account bearing 3.65% compounded monthly.
