The data given to the right includes data from ​candies, and of them are red. The company that makes the candy claims that ​% of its candies are red. Use the sample data to construct a ​% confidence interval estimate of the percentage of red candies. What do you conclude about the claim of ​%?

Answers

Answer 1

Using the z-distribution, the 95% confidence interval for the percentage of red candies is of (7.84%, 33.18%). Since 33% is part of the interval, there is not enough evidence to conclude that the claim is wrong.

What is a confidence interval of proportions?

A confidence interval of proportions is given by:

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

In which:

[tex]\pi[/tex] is the sample proportion.z is the critical value.n is the sample size.

In this problem, we have a 95% confidence level, hence[tex]\alpha = 0.95[/tex], z is the value of Z that has a p-value of [tex]\frac{1+0.95}{2} = 0.975[/tex], so the critical value is z = 1.96.

Researching this problem on the internet, 8 out of 39 candies are red, hence the sample size and the estimate are given by:

[tex]n = 39, \pi = \frac{8}{39} = 0.2051[/tex]

Hence the bounds of the interval are:

[tex]\pi - z\sqrt{\frac{\pi(1-\pi)}{n}} = 0.2051 - 1.96\sqrt{\frac{0.2051(0.7949)}{39}} = 0.0784[/tex][tex]\pi + z\sqrt{\frac{\pi(1-\pi)}{n}} = 0.2051 + 1.96\sqrt{\frac{0.2051(0.7949)}{39}} = 0.3318[/tex]

As a percentage, the 95% confidence interval for the percentage of red candies is of (7.84%, 33.18%). Since 33% is part of the interval, there is not enough evidence to conclude that the claim is wrong.

The intercepts of the given equations is as given in the task content is; Choice B; (15,0,0),(0,10,0) ,(0,0,5).

What are the intercepts of the equation as give in the task content?

The x-intercept of the given equation can be determined by setting values of y and z to zero.

The y-intercept can be determined by setting x and z to zero.

While the z-intercept can be determined by setting x and y to zero.

Consequently, the X-intercept of the given equations is; 2x +3(0) = 30; x = 15.

Therefore, we have; (15,0,0)

The y-intercept is therefore; 2(0) +3y = 30; 3y = 30; y = 30/3 = 10 and. we have; (0,15,0)

The diagonals of a rectangle enclose an angle of measure 78 degree
. If the perimeter of the rectangle is 36cm, what is its area?

Answers

The area of the rectangle with a perimeter of 36 cm is determined as: 80.1  cm².

What is the Area of a Rectangle?

Area of a rectangle = (length)(width).

Given the following:

Angle of measure 78 degree enclosed by the diagonals of the rectangle

Perimeter = 36 cm

To find the area, we need to find the length and width of the rectangle using the trigonometric ratios.

A side of the rectangle = x cm

The other side = (36 - 2x)/2  = (18 - x) cm

Angle of the diagonal base = (180 - 78)/2 = 51°

Apply the tangent ratio to find x:

Tangent ratio is tan ∅ = opposite/adjacent side of a right triangle. We have the following,

∅ = 51°

Opposite side = x cm

Adjacent side = (18 - x) cm

Tan 51°  =  x/(18 - x)

1.235 = x/(18 - x)

1.235(18 - x) = x

22.23 - 1.235x = x

22.23 = x + 1.235x

22.23 = 2.235x

22.23/2.235 = 2.235x/2.235

x = 9.946 cm (one side length)

The other side length = 18 - x = 18 - 9.946 = 8.054 cm

Area of the rectangle = (9.946)(8.054)

Area of the rectangle = 80.1  cm²

A manufacturer of widgets wants to test a new widget-producing machine to determine if it can make an average of 25 widgets per second before deciding to invest in the machine. The standard to reject the new machine is if it makes an average of less than 25 widgets per second. Here are data from a small random sample:

25.6, 26.2, 22.5, 20.5, 26.4, 27.4, 23.6, 26.9, 25.7, 24.9

Assuming the population follows a normal distribution, is there evidence that the new machine should be rejected at the 0.01 significance level? State the hypotheses, list and check the conditions, calculate the test statistic, find the p-value, and make a conclusion in a complete sentence related to the scenario.

Answers

Using the t-distribution, it is found that since the p-value is greater than 0.01, there is no evidence that the new machine should be rejected at the 0.01 significance level.

What are the hypothesis tested?

At the null hypothesis, it is tested if the average is not less than 25, that is:

[tex]H_0: \mu \geq 25[/tex]

At the alternative hypothesis, it is tested if the average is less than 25, that is:

[tex]H_1: \mu < 25[/tex]

What is the test statistic?

The test statistic is given by:

[tex]t = \frac{\overline{x} - \mu}{\frac{s}{\sqrt{n}}}[/tex]

The parameters are:

[tex]\overline{x}[/tex] is the sample mean.[tex]\mu[/tex] is the value tested at the null hypothesis.s is the standard deviation of the sample.n is the sample size.

Considering the situation described, the values of the parameters are given as follows:

[tex]\overline{x} = 24.97, \mu = 25, s = 2.16, n = 10[/tex]

Hence the test statistic is:

[tex]t = \frac{\overline{x} - \mu}{\frac{s}{\sqrt{n}}}[/tex]

[tex]t = \frac{24.97 - 25}{\frac{2.16}{\sqrt{10}}}[/tex]

t = -0.04

What is the p-value and the conclusion?

Using a t-distribution calculator, for a left-tailed test, as we are testing if the mean is less than a value, with 10 - 1 = 9 df and t = -0.04, the p-value is of 0.4844.

Since the p-value is greater than 0.01, there is no evidence that the new machine should be rejected at the 0.01 significance level.

Answers

For a standard normal distribution, the value of the z-score represented as c in P(-0.78≤Z≤c)=0.7657 is 0.0166

How to find the p-value from 2 z-scores?

We want to find the p-value between 2 z-scores expressed as;

P(-0.78 < z < c) = 0.7657

To solve this, we will solve it as;

0/7657= 1 - [P(z < -0.78)  + P(z > c)]

From normal distribution table, we have that;

P(z < -0.78) =  0.217695

Thus;

0.7657 = 1 - (0.217695 + c)

c = 1 - 0.7657 - 0.217695

c = 0.0166

Thus, For a standard normal distribution, the value of the z-score represented as c in P(-0.78≤Z≤c)=0.7657 is 0.0166

We can see that there is a +2x and a -2x so we just take both of them out as they cancel out each other. Now our equation is 9x -6+10. we add 10 to -6 to get +4. The result is 9x+4.

Answers

Answer:

15 $1 bills

10 $5 bills

10 $10 bills

Step-by-step explanation:

Let x = number of $1 bills

"There are five fewer $5-bills than $1-bills."

The number of $5 bills is x - 5

"There are half as many $10-bills as $5-bills."

The number of $10 bills is (x - 5)/2.

A $1 bill is worth $1.

x $1 bills are worth x × 1 = x dollars

A $5 bill is worth $5.

x - 5 $5 are worth 5(x - 5) dollars.

A $10 bill is worth $10.

(x - 5)/2 $10 bills are worth 10(x - 5)/2 = 5(x - 5) dollars.

Now we add the value of each type of bills and set it equal to $115.

x + 5(x - 5) + 5(x - 5) = 115

x + 10(x - 5) = 115

x + 10x - 50 = 115

11x = 165

x = 15

There are 15 $1 bills.

$5 bills: x - 5 = 10 - 5 = 10

There are 10 $5 bills

$10 bills: (x - 5)/2 = (15 - 5)/2 = 5

There are 5 $10 bills

Answer: 15 $1 bills; 10 $5 bills; 10 $10 bills

Check:

First, we check the total value of the bills.

15 $1 bills are worth $15

10 $5 bills are worth $50

10 $10 bills are worth $50

$15 + $50 + $50 = $115

The total does add up to $115.

Now we check the numbers of bills of each denomination.

The number of $1 is 15.

The number of $5 is 5 fewer that 15, so it is 10.

The number of $10 bills is half the number of $5 bills, so it is 5.
