A record store owner finds that 20% of customers entering her store make a purchase. One morning 180 people, who can be regarded as a random sample of all customers, enter the store.
a. What is the mean of the distribution of the sample proportion of customers making a purchase?
b) What is the variance of the sample proportion?
c) What is the standard error of the sample proportion?
d) What is the probability that the sample proportion is less than 0.15?
Answer:
a) 0.2
b) 0.0009
c) 0.0298
d) 0.0465 = 4.65% probability that the sample proportion is less than 0.15.
Step-by-step explanation:
To solve this question, we need to understand the normal probability distribution and the central limit theorem.
Normal Probability Distribution
Problems of normal distributions can be solved using the z-score formula.
In a set with mean [tex]\mu[/tex] and standard deviation [tex]\sigma[/tex], the z-score 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 p-value, we get the probability that the value of the measure is greater than X.
Central Limit Theorem
The Central Limit Theorem establishes 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]
20% of customers entering her store make a purchase.
This means that [tex]p = 0.2[/tex]
180 people
This means that [tex]n = 180[/tex]
a. What is the mean of the distribution of the sample proportion of customers making a purchase?
By the Central Limit Theorem, [tex]\mu = p = 0.2[/tex].
b) What is the variance of the sample proportion?
The standard deviation is:
[tex]s = \sqrt{\frac{0.2*0.8}{180}} = 0.0298[/tex]
Variance is the square of the standard deviation, so:
[tex]s^2 = (0.0298)^2 = 0.0009[/tex]
c) What is the standard error of the sample proportion?
As found in the previous item, 0.0298.
d) What is the probability that the sample proportion is less than 0.15?
This is the p-value of Z when X = 0.15. So
[tex]Z = \frac{X - \mu}{\sigma}[/tex]
By the Central Limit Theorem
[tex]Z = \frac{X - \mu}{s}[/tex]
[tex]Z = \frac{0.15 - 0.20}{0.0298}[/tex]
[tex]Z = -1.68[/tex]
[tex]Z = -1.68[/tex] has a p-value of 0.0465.
0.0465 = 4.65% probability that the sample proportion is less than 0.15.

Sketch the region of integration and convert the polar integral to a Cartesian integral or sum of integrals. Do not evaluate the integral.
∫ ^π∫^2 r^3 sinθcosθdrd()
π/2 0
It looks like the integral in polar coordinates is given to be
[tex]\displaystyle\int_{\pi/2}^\pi \int_0^2 r^3\sin(\theta)\cos(\theta)\,\mathrm dr\,\mathrm d\theta[/tex]
Converting back to Cartesian, we take
x = r cos(θ)
y = r sin(θ)
dx dy = r dr dθ
so we can easily recover the integrand in Cartesian:
[tex]r^3\sin(\theta)\cos(\theta)\,\mathrm dr\,\mathrm d\theta = (r\sin(\theta))(r\cos(\theta))(r\,\mathrm dr\,\mathrm d\theta) = xy\,\mathrm dx\,\mathrm dy[/tex]
This leaves us with the limits:
• π/2 ≤ θ ≤ π corresponds to the second quadrant of the (x, y)-plane (that is, where x < 0 and y > 0)
• 0 ≤ r ≤ 2 correspond to the disk of radius 2 centered at the origin
Taken together, we see the region of integration is a quarter-disk of radius 2 in the second quadrant, which we can capture by the set
{(x, y) : -√2 ≤ x ≤ 0 and 0 ≤ y ≤ √(2 - x ²)}
So, in Cartesian coordinates, the integral would be
[tex]\displaystyle \boxed{\int_{-\sqrt2}^0 \int_0^{\sqrt{2-x^2}} xy\,\mathrm dy\,\mathrm dx}[/tex]

Suppose that there are two internet service providers in Kabwe, Eyeconnect and Topconnect.
Currently, Eyeconnect has 180 000 customers and Topconnect has 120 000 customers.
Assume that, every year, 10% of the customer base of Eyeconnect switches to Topconnect
and 5% of the customer base of Topconnect switches to Eyeconnect. For the purposes of this
question, suppose no customer leaves a company without switching to the other one and no
company attracts customers that are not leaving the other (that is, the only changes in
customer base come from switching between the two companies).
a. Find the number of customers of Eyeconnect and Topconnect after one year.
b. Find the number of customers of Eyeconnect after many years.
Answer:
a. 168000 for Eyeconnect, 132000 for Topconnect
b. 100,000
Step-by-step explanation:
a.
Because the change in customers are only due to leaving companies, we can say that, after one year, Eyeconnect loses 10% of its customers to Topconnect and Topconnect loses 5% of its customers to Eyeconnect. This represents all changes in customers.
First, we can calculate how much Eyeconnect loses, which is 10% of 180,000 = 0.1 * 180,000 = 18,000 . They then have 180,000 - 18,000 = 162,000 employees
Next, Topconnect loses 120,000 * 5% = 120,000 * 0.05 = 6,000. They then have 120,000-6,000 = 114,000 employees
We can then add the customer amounts. Note that we are subtracting both sides before adding as both companies gain and lose customers simultaneously.
We can then add how much one company lost to the other company's customers.
Eyeconnect gains 6,000 customers, so they then have 162,000 + 6,000 = 168000 employees. Topconnect gains 18,000 customers so they then have 114,000 + 18,000 = 132,000 employees
b.
After many years, the number of customers Eyeconnect has will be less than the number of customers that Topconnect has. One way to find the end amount of customers that Eyeconnect has is to figure out when the customer bases even out, or when Eyeconnect loses the same amount of customers as Topconnect so the customer base stays the exact same. We know that no customers leave or join the companies except to leave/join the other, so the total amount of customers between the two companies stays the exact same. The amount of customers is 180,000 + 120,000 = 300,000. Therefore, at the end amount,
Eyeconnect customers (E) + Topconnect customers (T) =300,000
Furthermore, if the amount of customers that leave Eyeconnect is the same that leaves Topconnect, we can say
E * 0.1 = T * 0.05
divide both sides by 0.05 to isolate the T
E * 0.1 / 0.05 = T
2 * E = T
plug that into the first equation
E + 2 * E = 300,000
3 * E = 300,000
divide both sides by 3 to isolate E
E = 100,000 after many years

Then
[tex]L_s\left\{t\right\} = \displaystyle \left[-\frac1ste^{-st}\right]\bigg|_{t=0}^{t\to\infty}+\frac1s\int_0^\infty e^{-st}\,\mathrm dt[/tex]
[tex]L_s\left\{t\right\} = \displaystyle \frac1s\int_0^\infty e^{-st}\,\mathrm dt[/tex]

(2) A
[tex]L_s\left\{1\right\} = \displaystyle\int_0^\infty e^{-st}\,\mathrm dt[/tex]
[tex]L_s\left\{1\right\} = \displaystyle\left[-\frac1se^{-st}\right]\bigg|_{t=0}^{t\to\infty}[/tex]
[tex]L_s\left\{1\right\} = \displaystyle\boxed{\frac1s}[/tex]

Answer:
A. 7√6/2
Step-by-step explanation:
The side ratios of the 30-60-90 triangle are 1 : √3 : 2. This means the horizontal line segment is 7√3.
The side ratios of the 45-45-90 triangle are 1 : 1 : √2. This means ...
x = (horizontal segment)/√2 = (√2)/2 × 7√3 = (7/2)√(2·3)
x = 7√6/2
In 2018, Mike Krzyewski and John Calipari topped the list of highest paid college basketball coaches (Sports Illustrated website). The following sample shows the head basketball coach's salary for a sample of 10 schools playing NCAA Division I basketball. Salary data are in millions of dollars.
University Coach's Salary University Coach's Salary
North Carolina State 2.2 Miami (FL) 1.5
Iona 0.5 Creighton 1.3
Texas A&M 2.4 Texas Tech 1.5
Oregon 2.7 South Dakota State 0.3
Iowa State 2.0 New Mexico State 0.3
a. Use the sample mean for the 10 schools to estimate the population mean annual salary for head basketball coaches at colleges and universities playing NCAA Division I basketball.
b. Use the data to estimate the population standard deviation for the annual salary for head basketball coaches.
c. What is the 95% confidence interval for the population variance?
d. What is the 95% confidence interval for the population standard deviation?
From the data given, we estimate the population mean and population standard deviation. Then, we use this estimate to find a 95% confidence interval for the population variance and the population standard deviation.
Sample:
Salaries in millions of dollars: 2.2, 1.5, 0.5, 1.3, 2.4, 1.5, 2.7, 0.3, 2.0, 0.3
Question a:
The mean is the sum of all values divided by the number of values. So
[tex]\overline{x} = \frac{2.2 + 1.5 + 0.5 + 1.3 + 2.4 + 1.5 + 2.7 + 0.3 + 2.0 + 0.3}{10} = 1.42[/tex]
The sample mean salary is of 1.42 million.
Question b:
The standard deviation is the square root of the difference squared between each value and the mean, divided by one less than the number of values.
So
[tex]s = \sqrt{\frac{(2.2-1.42)^2 + (1.5-1.42)^2 + (0.5-1.42)^2 + (1.3-1.42)^2 + (2.4-1.42)^2 + (1.5-1.42)^2 + (2.7-1.42)^2 + ...}{9}} = 0.8772[/tex]
Thus, the estimate for the population standard deviation is of 0.8772 million.
Question c:
The sample size is [tex]n = 10[/tex]
The significance level is [tex]\alpha = 1 - 0.05 = 0.95[/tex]
The estimate, which is the sample standard deviation, is of [tex]s = 0.8772[/tex].
Now, we have to find the critical values for the Pearson distribution. They are:
[tex]\chi^2_{\frac{\alpha}{2},n-1} = \chi^2_{0.025,9} = 19.0228[/tex]
[tex]\chi^2_{1-\frac{\alpha}{2},n-1} = \chi^2_{0.975,9} = 2.7004[/tex]
The confidence interval for the population variance is:
[tex]\frac{(n-1)s^2}{\chi^2_{\frac{\alpha}{2},n-1}} < \sigma^2 < \frac{(n-1)s^2}{\chi^2_{1-\frac{\alpha}{2},n-1}}[/tex]
[tex]\frac{9*0.8772^2}{19.0228} < \sigma^2 < \frac{9*0.8772^2}{2.7004}[/tex]
[tex]0.3641 < \sigma^2 < 2.5646[/tex]
Thus, the 95% confidence interval for the population variance is (0.3641, 2.5646)
Question d:
Standard deviation is the square root of variance, so:
[tex]\sqrt{0.3641} = 0.6034[/tex]
[tex]\sqrt{2.5646} = 1.6014[/tex]
The 95% confidence interval for the population standard deviation is (0.6034, 1.6014).

A family has a day of 7 activities planned: shopping, picnic, hiking, swimming, bike ride, video games, and movie. To make it more adventurous they decide to randomly pick the order of the activities out of a hat. Find the probability that bike ride and movie are chosen consecutively, in either order.
Answer:
[tex]Pr= \frac{1}{21}[/tex]
Step-by-step explanation:
Given
[tex]n(S) = 7[/tex] --- number of games
Required
Probability of bike and movie in consecutive order
This probability is represented as:
[tex]Pr = P(Bike\ and\ Movie) \ or\ P(Movie\ or\ Bike)[/tex]
So, we have:
[tex]Pr = P(Bike\ and\ Movie) \ +\ P(Movie\ or\ Bike)[/tex]
The probability is an illustration of selection without replacement;
So, we have:
[tex]P(Bike\ and\ Movie) = P(Bike) * P(Movie)[/tex]
[tex]P(Bike\ and\ Movie) = \frac{n(Bike)}{n(S)} * \frac{n(Movie)}{n(S) - 1}[/tex] ---- without replacement
Bike and Movie appear in the game list 1 time.
So, the equation becomes
[tex]P(Bike\ and\ Movie) = \frac{1}{7} * \frac{1}{7 - 1}[/tex]
[tex]P(Bike\ and\ Movie) = \frac{1}{7} * \frac{1}{6}[/tex]
[tex]P(Bike\ and\ Movie) = \frac{1}{42}[/tex]
Similarly,
[tex]P(Movie\ and\ Bike) = \frac{1}{42}[/tex]
So, we have:
[tex]Pr = P(Bike\ and\ Movie) \ +\ P(Movie\ or\ Bike)[/tex]
[tex]Pr= \frac{1}{42}+\frac{1}{42}[/tex]
Take LCM
[tex]Pr= \frac{1+1}{42}[/tex]
[tex]Pr= \frac{2}{42}[/tex]
[tex]Pr= \frac{1}{21}[/tex]

Based on known expressions from Taylor series, the power series [tex]\sum \limits_{k = 0}^{\infty} (-1)^{k}\cdot \frac{x^{k+2}}{4^{k}}[/tex]Taylor series-derived formula of the rational function [tex]\frac{4\cdot x^{2}}{4+x}[/tex].
How to derive a function behind the approximated formula by Taylor seriesTaylor series are polynomic approximations used to estimate values both from trascendental and non-trascendental functions. It is commonly used in trigonometric, potential, logarithmic and even rational functions.
In this question we must use series properties and common Taylor series-derived formulas to infer the expression behind the given series. Now we proceed to find the expression:
[tex]\sum \limits_{k = 0}^{\infty} (-1)^{k}\cdot \frac{x^{k+2}}{4^{k}}[/tex]
[tex]x^{2}\cdot \sum\limits_{k = 0}^{\infty} \left(-\frac{x}{4} \right)^{k}[/tex]
[tex]x^{2}\cdot \left(\frac{1}{1+\frac{x}{4} } \right)[/tex]
[tex]\frac{4\cdot x^{2}}{4+x}[/tex]
Based on power and series properties and most common Taylor series- derived formulas, the power series [tex]\sum \limits_{k = 0}^{\infty} (-1)^{k}\cdot \frac{x^{k+2}}{4^{k}}[/tex] represents a Taylor series-derived formula of the rational function [tex]\frac{4\cdot x^{2}}{4+x}[/tex].

Laura, Scott, and Joe served a total of 104
orders Monday at the school cafeteria. Joe served 3
times as many orders as Scott. Laura served 9
more orders than Scott. How many orders did they each serve?
9514 1404 393
Answer:
Joe: 57Scott: 19Laura: 28Step-by-step explanation:
Let s represent the number of orders Scott served. Then we have Joe served 3s, and Laura served (s+9). The total of orders served is ...
3s +s +(s +9) = 104
5s = 95 . . . . . . . . . . . subtract 9 and collect terms
s = 19 . . . . . . . . . divide by 5
3s = 3×19 = 57
s+9 = 19+9 = 28
Joe served 57 orders, Scott served 19, and Laura served 28 orders.
