In preparation for an earnings report, a large retailer wants to estimate p= the proportion of annual sales

that occur during the month of December. A SRS of sales from last year revealed that 37 of

the randomly selected sales occurred during the month December out of 161 sales.

Answers

Answer 1

Using the z-distribution, it is found that the 95% confidence interval for the proportion of sales that occured in December is (0.1648, 0.2948).

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.

The sample size and the estimate are given by:

[tex]n = 161, \pi = \frac{37}{161} = 0.2298[/tex]

Hence:

[tex]\pi - z\sqrt{\frac{\pi(1-\pi)}{n}} = 0.2298 - 1.96\sqrt{\frac{0.2298(0.7702)}{161}} = 0.1648[/tex]

[tex]\pi + z\sqrt{\frac{\pi(1-\pi)}{n}} = 0.2298 + 1.96\sqrt{\frac{0.2298(0.7702)}{161}} = 0.2948[/tex]

The 95% confidence interval for the proportion of sales that occured in December is (0.1648, 0.2948).

The sum of 3 consecutive integers is 96. Find the 3 integers. Show all work and label answer.

Answers

31+32+33 :) steps

add 31+32+33 to get 96
let x be the lowest integer
x + 1 is the second number
x + 2 is the last number

so, the equation would be:
x + x + 1 + x + 2=96

add together the x’s and numbers to get:
3x + 3 = 96

minus 3 from both sides:
3x=93

divide both sides by 3:

x=31


so, the first number is 31, then 32, and 33

Some examples of perfect squares are 9, 16, 25, and 36. They are the squares of 3, 4, 5, and 6. To generate these values, add x to 3 and plug these numbers into an equation:

√(x + 3) = 3

√(6 + 3) = √9

x = 6

√(x + 3) = 4

√(13 + 3) = √16

x = 13

√(x + 3) = 5

√(22 + 3) = √25

x = 22

√(x + 3) = 6

√(33 + 3) = √36

x = 33

7/5 / 7/3 = 3/5

Answer:

3/5

Step-by-step explanation:

First we make both fractions into improper fractions/top-heavy fractions:

1 2/5 = 7/5

2 1/3 = 7/3

Now we use the rule of KFC (keep flip change):

Keep the first fraction:

7/5

Change the sign to opposite:

÷ → ×

Flip the second fraction:

7/3 → 3/7

Now we multiply the fractions:

7/5× 3/7 = 7×3/5×7 =

21/35

Now we simplify this fraction to simplest terms:

Both the numerator and denominator can be divided by 7 :

3/5

(Equation in photo below)

Answers

Answer:

  (c)  0

Step-by-step explanation:

Each of the terms in the expression represents a different transformation of a different trig function. Expressing those as the same trig function can make it easier to find the sum.

__

We can start with the identity ...

  cos(x) = sin(x +π/2)

Substituting the argument of the cosine function in the given expression, we have ...

  cos(π/2 -θ) = sin((π/2 -θ) +π/2) = sin(π -θ) = -sin(θ -π)

__

The first term, sin(π +θ), is a left-shift of the sine function by 1/2 cycle, so can be written ...

  sin(π +θ) = -sin(θ)

The second term is the opposite of a right-shift of the sine function by 1/2 cycle, so can be written ...

  cos(π/2 -θ) = -sin(θ -π) = sin(θ)

Then the sum of terms is ...

  sin(π +θ) +cos(π/2 -θ) = -sin(θ) +sin(θ) = 0

The sum of the two terms is identically zero.

What is the y intercept of the equation-16x^2+64x+80?

Answers

Answer:

  (0, 80)

Step-by-step explanation:

The y-intercept is the value of the function when x=0. For a polynomial in x, setting x=0 effectively eliminates all of the variable terms, leaving only the constant term.

__

The y-intercept is the constant: 80. The coordinates of the y-intercept point reflect the fact that x=0 there: (0, 80).
