Experts believe the rate of obesity (defined as having a BMI greater than 30) of adults in the United States is approximately 24.5%. A Gallup poll examined the rate of obesity in adults in the United States with a survey of 86,664 randomly sampled U.S. adults. Of the adults surveyed, 23,053 said that they were obese. The shape of the sampling distribution for the sample proportion when taking samples of size 86,664 from this population follows a ____________ distribution.

Answers

Answer 1

Answer:

Normal distribution.

Step-by-step explanation:

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:

Samples larger than 30, which means that the sampling distribution for the sample proportion follows a normal distribution.

Answers

Given:

[tex]x=\log_{10}31,500[/tex]

To find:

Select the true statements from the given options about the given value.

Solution:

We have,

[tex]x=\log_{10}31,500[/tex]

It can be written as

[tex]x=\log_{10}(2^23^25^37)[/tex]

[tex]x=\log_{10}(2^2)+\log_{10}(3^2)+\log_{10}(5^3)+\log_{10}(7)[/tex]     [tex][\because \log(ab)=\log a+\log b][/tex]

[tex]x=2\log_{10}2+2\log_{10}3+3\log_{10}5+\log_{10}(7)[/tex]

[tex]x=2\left(0.30105\right)+2\left(0.47712\right)+3\left(0.69897\right)+0.8451[/tex]

[tex]x=4.49835[/tex]

Clearly, the value of x lies between 4 and 5. So, [tex]x>4[/tex] and [tex]x<5[/tex].

Therefore, the correct options are C and D.

The true statements are: (c) x > 4 and (d). x < 5

The logarithmic expression is given as:

[tex]x = \log_{10}(31500)[/tex]

Express 31500 as a product of 100

[tex]x = \log_{10}(315 * 100)[/tex]

Apply the law of logarithm

[tex]x = \log_{10}(315) + \log_{10}(100)[/tex]

Evaluate log 100 base 10

[tex]x = \log_{10}(315) + 2[/tex]

Evaluate log 315 base 10

[tex]x = 2.50 + 2[/tex]

Add the expressions

[tex]x \approx 4.50[/tex]

4.5 is greater than 4 and less than 5

Hence, the true statements are: (c) x > 4 and (d). x < 5

Suppose that 55% of people own dogs. If you pick two people at random, what is the probability that they both own a dog?

Answers

Answer:

The probability to one person to be a dog owner is p=0.56 (because 56% of people own dogs) and the probability that one person is not dog owner is q=1-p=1-0.56=0.44.

Step-by-step explanation:

Choosing two people at random, there are such possibilities:

1. both are dog owners;

2. first owns a dog, second not;

3. first hasn't dog, second owns a dog;

4. both haven't dogs.

Answer: if you pick two people at random the probability that they both own a dog is 0.3136.

Hope this helps! :))

The Probability that they both own a dog is 0.3025.

Here,

55% of people own dogs.

If pick two people at random,

Then we have to find the probability that they both own a dog.

What is Probability?

Probability is defined as the likelihood of something occurring or the chance of something happening.

Now,

55% of people own dogs.

Hence, the probability that they both own a dog = 55% * 55%

                                                                          = 0.55 * 0.55

                                                                          = 0.3025

So, The probability that they both own a dog is 0.3025.

Jaime has 50 rock songs, 35 dance songs and 15 rap songs on his play list. If his music player randomly selects a song, what is the probability that it is a rock song?

Answers

The probability would be 50%. The way to find this answer is to add up the total number of songs then divide 50(the total of rock songs) by the sum of the numbers which is 100, and 50/100 is equal to 0.50 and if you multiple by 100 that will give u the percentage(or just look at the first 2 decimal places)

A beach umbrella has a circumference of 8.8 feet what is the radius of an umbrella?

Answers

Answer:

radius = 1.4

Step-by-step explanation:

The formula for circumference is as follows:

[tex]C = d\pi[/tex]

or

[tex]C = 2r\pi[/tex]

However, these formulas are the same, because the diameter is equal to the radius times 2. I prefer to use the first (it gives you less values to work with).

Anyhow, We would substitute like this:

[tex]8.8 = d\pi[/tex]

We know that pi, is going to be equal to: 3.14159

So we work from there...

[tex]8.8=d(3.14159)\\2.8011=d[/tex]

Diameter divided by 2 would be the radius, and thats:

1.4006

or 1.4

An equivalent equation has been written by multiplying the second equation by 2.
4x – 9y = 7 → 4x – 9y = 7
2(–2x + 3y = 4) → –4x + 6y = 8

What is the solution to the system?

a: (-19/2, -5)
b: (-5, -19/2)
c: (-15/2, -11/3)
d: -19/10, 1/15)

Answers

Answer:

(-19/2, -5)

Step-by-step explanation:

Given the two equivalent equations

4x – 9y = 7 .... 1

–4x + 6y = 8 ....2

Adding both equations

-9y + 6y = 7+8

-3y = 15

y = -15/3

y = -5

Substitute y = -5 into 1

From 1; 4x - 9y = 7

4x - 9(-5) = 7

4x + 45 = 7

4x = 7 - 45

4x = -38

x = -38/4

x = -19/2

Hence the solution is (-19/2, -5)

A tumor is injected with 0.52 grams of Iodine-125. After 1 day, the amount of Iodine-125 has decreased by 1.15%.
Write an exponential decay model with A(t) representing the amount of Iodine-125 remaining in the tumor after t days. Enclose arguments of the function in parentheses and include a multiplication sign between terms. For example, c*ln(t).
Then use the formula for A(t) to find the amount of Iodine-125 that would remain in the tumor after 8.5 days.

Answers

Answer:

The equation is [tex]A(t) = 0.52*(0.9885)^{(t)}[/tex].

0.4713 grams would remain in the tumor after 8.5 days.

Step-by-step explanation:

Exponential equation of decay:

The exponential equation for the amount of a substance that decays, after t days, is given by:

[tex]A(t) = A(0)*(1-r)^t[/tex]

In which A(0) is the initial amount and r is the decay rate, as a decimal.

A tumor is injected with 0.52 grams of Iodine-125.

This means that [tex]A(0) = 0.52[/tex]

After 1 day, the amount of Iodine-125 has decreased by 1.15%.

This means that [tex]r = 0.0115[/tex]

So

[tex]A(t) = A(0)*(1-r)^t[/tex]

[tex]A(t) = 0.52*(1-0.0115)^t[/tex]

[tex]A(t) = 0.52*(0.9885)^t[/tex]

Then use the formula for A(t) to find the amount of Iodine-125 that would remain in the tumor after 8.5 days.

This is A(8.5).

[tex]A(t) = 0.52*(0.9885)^t[/tex]

[tex]A(8.5) = 0.52*(0.9885)^{8.5} = 0.4713[/tex]

0.4713 grams would remain in the tumor after 8.5 days.
