The survey included a random sample of 640 western residents and 540 northeastern residents. 39% of the western residents and 51% of the northeastern residents reported that they were completely satisfied with their local telephone service. Find the 99% confidence interval for the difference in two proportions

Answers

Answer 1

Answer:

The 99% confidence interval for the difference in two proportions is (0.0456, 0.1944).

Step-by-step explanation:

Before building the confidence interval, we need to understand the central limit theorem and subtraction of normal variables.

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]

Subtraction between normal variables:

When two normal variables are subtracted, the mean is the difference of the means, while the standard deviation is the square root of the sum of the variances.

Western residents:

39% out of 640, so:

[tex]p_1 = 0.39[/tex]

[tex]s_1 = \sqrt{\frac{0.39*0.61}{640}} = 0.0193[/tex]

Eastern residents:

51% out of 540, so:

[tex]p_2 = 0.51[/tex]

[tex]s_2 = \sqrt{\frac{0.51*0.49}{540}} = 0.0215[/tex]

Distribution of the difference:

[tex]p = p_2 - p_1 = 0.51 - 0.39 = 0.12[/tex]

[tex]s = \sqrt{s_2^2+s_1^2} = \sqrt{0.0215^2+0.0193^2} = 0.0289[/tex]

Confidence interval:

[tex]p \pm zs[/tex]

In which

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

99% confidence level

So [tex]\alpha = 0.01[/tex], z is the value of Z that has a p-value of [tex]1 - \frac{0.01}{2} = 0.995[/tex], so [tex]Z = 2.575[/tex].

The lower bound of the interval is:

[tex]p - zs = 0.12 - 2.575*0.0289 = 0.0456[/tex]

The upper bound of the interval is:

[tex]p + zs = 0.12 + 2.575*0.0289 = 0.1944[/tex]

The 99% confidence interval for the difference in two proportions is (0.0456, 0.1944).

Find an equation for the perpendicular bisector of the line segment whose endpoints
are (5, 4) and (-7,-8).

Answers

Answer:

y= -x -3

Step-by-step explanation:

A perpendicular bisector of a line cuts through the line at its midpoint perpendicularly (90°).

Let's find the slope of the line segment.

[tex]\boxed{ slope = \frac{y _{1} - y_2 }{x_1 - x_2} }[/tex]

Slope of line segment

[tex] = \frac{4 - ( - 8)}{5 - ( - 7)} [/tex]

[tex] = \frac{4 + 8}{5 + 7} [/tex]

[tex] = \frac{12}{12} [/tex]

= 1

The product of the slopes of 2 perpendicular lines is -1.

Let the slope of the perpendicular bisector be m.

m(1)= -1

m= -1

y= -x +c

To find the value of c, substitute a pair of coordinates in which the line passes through into the above equation.

Since the perpendicular bisector cuts through the midpoint of the line segment, let's find the coordinates of this midpoint.

[tex]\boxed{midpoint = ( \frac{x _{1} + x _2}{2} , \frac{y_1 + y_2}{2} )}[/tex]

Midpoint of line segment

[tex] = ( \frac{5 - 7}{2} , \frac{4 - 8}{2} )[/tex]

[tex] = ( \frac{ - 2}{2} , \frac{ - 4}{2} )[/tex]

= (-1, -2)

y= -x +c

When x= -1, y= -2,

-2= -(-1) +c

-2= 1 +c

c= -2 -1

c= -3

Thus, the equation of the perpendicular bisector is y= -x -3.

Colorado: 3.50 = 1003.60 = X3.60 x 100 / 3.50 = X360 / 3.5 = X102.85 = X2.85% = Sales tax

Ohio: Y = 1.055X10 x 1.055 = Y10.55 = Y10 = 10010.55 = X10.55 x 100 / 10 = X1055 / 10 = X105.5 = X5.5% = Sales tax

Rhode Island: 10 = 10010.70 = X10.70 x 100 / 10 = X1070 / 100 = X107 = X7% = Sales tax

Therefore, sales tax in Colorado is 2.85%, in Ohio is 5.50%, and in Rhode Island is 7%.

x =  11

Step-by-step explanation:

Lines are parallel.   5x + 10 and 10x + 5 are supplements of each other.

Move  5x+ 10 to the corresponding position on the figure.  It will be next to 10x + 5 and form a linear pair with 10x + 5.  A linear pair form a straight angle or two supplementary angles.  Supplementary angles = 180°

Therefore  5x +10 + 10x + 5 = 180°

                   15x  + 15 = 180°

                      15x = 180 - 15

Sarah walked ½ mile yesterday morning and ¾ mile yesterday afternoon. What was the total distance walked by Sarah?

Answers

Answer:

1.25 miles or 5/4

Step-by-step explanation:

Take the two distances and add them together and simplify.

Answer: 1 & 1/4 mile

Explanation:

1/2 = 2/4

She walked 2/4 of a mile in the morning and 3/4 of a mile in the afternoon. The total she walked is 5/4 of a mile. We add the numerators and place the sum over the common denominator.

The improper fraction 5/4 converts to the mixed number 1 & 1/4, since,

5/4 = (4+1)/4 = 4/4 + 1/4 = 1 + 1/4 = 1 & 1/4

Answers

Answer:  6.282

Explanation:

Refer to the table below. I've added a third row where I multiplied each x value with its corresponding frequency value f. We can refer to this row as the xf row.

Once we know the xf values, we add them up to get 245.

We'll then divide that result over the sum of the frequency values (add everything in the second row). The sum of the frequency values is 39.

So the mean is approximately: 245/39 = 6.282051 which rounds to 6.282

Notice that this mean value is fairly close to the x value which has the highest frequency.

Step-by-step explanation:

They have different y intercepts.

They have the same slope.

Here are 2 examples

y = 3x + 5

y = 3x + 19

The slopes are both three. The y intercepts are 5 for the top equation and 19 for the bottom equation.

They are both lines. That means their  domain is -infinity <x < + infinity

Their range is - infinity <y < + infinity.

We are excluding  examples like x = 3 and x = 5 and y = 1 and y = 3.

It is true that they both are parallel in both cases, but the discussion for each pair is a little different.
