Past surveys reveal the 30% of tourists going to Las Vegas to gamble spend more than $1,000. The Visitor's Bureau of Las Vegas wants to update this percentage. The new study is to use the 90% confidence level. The estimate is to be within 1% of the population proportion. What is the necessary sample size?

Answers

Answer 1

Answer:

The necessary sample size is of 5683.

Step-by-step explanation:

In a sample with a number n of people surveyed with a probability of a success of [tex]\pi[/tex], and a confidence level of [tex]1-\alpha[/tex], we have the following confidence interval of proportions.

[tex]\pi \pm z\sqrt{\frac{\pi(1-\pi)}{n}}[/tex]

In which

z is the zscore that has a pvalue of [tex]1 - \frac{\alpha}{2}[/tex].

The margin of error is:

[tex]M = z\sqrt{\frac{\pi(1-\pi)}{n}}[/tex]

90% confidence level

So [tex]\alpha = 0.1[/tex], z is the value of Z that has a pvalue of [tex]1 - \frac{0.1}{2} = 0.95[/tex], so [tex]Z = 1.645[/tex].

Past surveys reveal the 30% of tourists going to Las Vegas to gamble spend more than $1,000.

This means that [tex]\pi = 0.3[/tex]

The estimate is to be within 1% of the population proportion. What is the necessary sample size?

A sample size of n is necessary. n is found when [tex]M = 0.01[/tex]. So

[tex]M = z\sqrt{\frac{\pi(1-\pi)}{n}}[/tex]

[tex]0.01 = 1.645\sqrt{\frac{0.3*0.7}{n}}[/tex]

[tex]0.01\sqrt{n} = 1.645\sqrt{0.3*0.7}[/tex]

[tex]\sqrt{n} = \frac{1.645\sqrt{0.3*0.7}}{0.01}[/tex]

[tex](\sqrt{n})^2 = (\frac{1.645\sqrt{0.3*0.7}}{0.01})^2[/tex]

[tex]n = 5682.6[/tex]

Rounding up:

The necessary sample size is of 5683.

Answer:

0.5

Step-by-step explanation:

If y = -4, then we must replace every variable y with the number 4. So, let's do that.

2/-4 + 1/2*(-4 + 6)

All we have to do now, is simplify. Parenthesis first...

2/-4 + 1/2*2

We can replace the 1/2*2 with 2/2 because they are the same thing.

2/-4 + 2/2

Now, solve from left to right.

-0.5 + 1 = 0.5

Therefore, the answer is equal to 0.5. Hope this helps!

50

Step-by-step explanation:

The sum of angle on a straight line is 180degres, hence;

X+3+x+20+x+7 = 180

3x+30=180

3x=180-30

3x = 150

X = 150/3

x = 50

Hence the value of x is 50

The diameter of each circular hole in a paint palette is 42 millimeters.
Find the circumference of each hole. Use 3.14 as an approximation for .
A 128 millimeters
B 131.88 millimeters
C 120 millimeters
D 42 millimeters

Answers

Answer:

B

Step-by-step explanation:

The circumference is just diameter x π (3.14 in this case) so 42 x 3.14 = 131.88

Answer:

B

Step-by-step explanation:

the circumference of a circle is

2×pi×r

with r being the radius (half the diameter).

2r is then the diameter.

so, in our case the circumference is

42×pi = 42 × 3.14 = 131.88 mm

The radius of a circle is changing at the rate of 1/π inches per second. At what rate, in square inches per second, is the circle’s area changing when the radius is 5 inches?

Answers

Answer:

formula for the area A of a circle in terms of its radius r:

    A = πr2

It is important to remember that both r, and hence, A are functions of time, t.  Take the derivative of both sides with respect to t and obtain

    dA/dt = 2πr(dr/dt)

Note that we are using implicit differentiation here, since A and r are (implicit) functions of t.  Now we can find the required answers.

r = 5 inches.

Substitute r = 5 and dr/dt = 3 to get

    dA/dt = 2π5·3 = 30π ≅ 95.25

(the units are in2/min.)

r = 22 inches

    dA/dt = 2π22·3 = 132π ≅ 414.69

Hope that helps.

A survey conducted by the U.S. department of Labor found the 48 out of 500 heads of households were unemployed. Compute a 99% confidence interval for the proportion of unemployed heads of households in the population. Round to three decimal places. (make sure to type a zero in front of the decimal place ie. 0.1 vs .1 otherwise your answer will be marked incorrect) Lower limit

Answers

Answer:

99% Confidence interval is given as;

Lower Limit = 0.062

Upper Limit = 0.130

Step-by-step explanation:

Given the data in the question;

x = 48

n = 500

sample proportion p = x/n = 48/500 = 0.096

with 99% confidence

significance level ∝ = 1 - 99% = 1 - 0.99 = 0.01

∝/2 = 0.01 / 2 = 0.005

Critical Z-value = [tex]Z_{\alpha /2[/tex] = [tex]Z_{0.005[/tex]  = 2.576

Now,

Standard error of p : SE = √[ (p × ( 1 - p) / n ) ]

we substitute

SE = √[ (0.096 × ( 1 - 0.096) / 500 ) ]

SE = √[ (0.096 × 0.904) / 500  ]

SE = √[ 0.086784 / 500 ) ]

SE = 0.0131745

so

Margin of Error E = [tex]Z_{\alpha /2[/tex] × SE

E = 2.576  × 0.0131745

E = 0.0339

Now 99% confidence interval will be

⇒ 0.096 ± 0.0339

⇒ (0.096 - 0.0339, 0.096 + 0.0339 )

⇒ ( 0.062, 0.130 )

Lower Limit = 0.062

Upper Limit = 0.130

Jonathan went shopping for a new pair of pants. Sales tax where he lives is 4.75%. The price of the pair of pants is $20. Find the total price including tax. Round to the nearest cent.

Answers

Answer:

20.95$

Step-by-step explanation:

To find the total price we need to find 4.75% of the 20 and to do that we need  to multply 20 with 4.75 and divide it by 100

20 × 4.75 ÷ 100 = 0.95

20$ + 0.95$ = 20.95$
