Answers

Answer 1

Answer:

Explained below.

Step-by-step explanation:

According to the Central limit theorem, if from an unknown population large samples of sizes n > 30, are selected and the sample proportion for each sample is computed then the sampling distribution of sample proportion follows a Normal distribution.

The mean of this sampling distribution of sample proportion is:

 [tex]\mu_{\hat p}= p[/tex]

The standard deviation of this sampling distribution of sample proportion is:

 [tex]\sigma_{\hat p}=\sqrt{\frac{p(1-p)}{n}}[/tex]

(a)

The sample selected is of size n = 450 > 30.

Then according to the central limit theorem the sampling distribution of sample proportion is normally distributed.

The mean and standard deviation are:

[tex]\mu_{\hat p}=p=0.75\\\\\sigma_{\hat p}=\sqrt{\frac{p(1-p)}{n}}=\sqrt{\frac{0.75(1-0.75)}{450}}=0.0204[/tex]

So, the sampling distribution of sample proportion is [tex]\hat p\sim N(0.75,0.0204^{2})[/tex].

(b)

Compute the probability that the sample proportion will be within 0.04 of the population proportion as follows:

[tex]P(p-0.04<\hat p<p+0.04)=P(\frac{-0.04}{0.0204}<\frac{\hat p-p}{\sigma_{\hat p}}<\frac{0.04}{0.0204})[/tex]

                                          [tex]=P(-1.96<Z<196)\\=P(Z<1.96)-P(Z<-1.96)\\=0.975-0.025\\=0.95[/tex]

Thus, the probability that the sample proportion will be within 0.04 of the population proportion is 0.95.

(c)

The sample selected is of size n = 200 > 30.

Then according to the central limit theorem the sampling distribution of sample proportion is normally distributed.

The mean and standard deviation are:

[tex]\mu_{\hat p}=p=0.75\\\\\sigma_{\hat p}=\sqrt{\frac{p(1-p)}{n}}=\sqrt{\frac{0.75(1-0.75)}{200}}=0.0306[/tex]

So, the sampling distribution of sample proportion is [tex]\hat p\sim N(0.75,0.0306^{2})[/tex].

(d)

Compute the probability that the sample proportion will be within 0.04 of the population proportion as follows:

[tex]P(p-0.04<\hat p<p+0.04)=P(\frac{-0.04}{0.0306}<\frac{\hat p-p}{\sigma_{\hat p}}<\frac{0.04}{0.0306})[/tex]

                                          [tex]=P(-1.31<Z<196)\\=P(Z<1.31)-P(Z<-1.96)\\=0.9049-0.0951\\=0.8098\\\approx 0.81[/tex]

Thus, the probability that the sample proportion will be within 0.04 of the population proportion is 0.81.

(e)

The probability that the sample proportion will be within 0.04 of the population proportion if the sample size is 450 is 0.95.

And the probability that the sample proportion will be within 0.04 of the population proportion if the sample size is 200 is 0.81.

So, there is a gain in precision on increasing the sample size.

An "extreme" pogo stick utilizes a spring whose uncompressed length is 46 cm and whose force constant is 1.4 x 104 N/m. A 60-kg person is jumping on the pogo stick, compressing the spring to a length of only 5.0 cm at the bottom of their jump. Which is the upward acceleration of the person at the moment the spring reaches its greatest compression at the bottom of their jump?
a. 96 m/s^2
b. 86 m/s^2
c. 976 m/s^2
d.860 m/s^2

Answers

Answer:

B. [tex]86\,\frac{m}{s^{2}}[/tex]

Step-by-step explanation:

From Newton's Laws of Motion, the spring is compressed against effects of weight of the person and as sping force is a restitutive force, the net force experimented by person is different from zero. By applying Second Newton's Law, we get this equation of equilibrium on person:

[tex]\Sigma F = k\cdot \Delta x -m\cdot g = m\cdot a[/tex] (Eq. 1)

Where:

[tex]k[/tex] - Spring constant, measured in newtons per meter.

[tex]\Delta x[/tex] - Change in the length of spring, measured in meters.

[tex]m[/tex] - Mass of the person, measured in meters.

[tex]g[/tex] - Gravitational acceleration, measured in meters per square second.

[tex]a[/tex] - Net acceleration of the person, measured in meters per square second.

Now we proceed to clear net acceleration:

[tex]a = \frac{k}{m}\cdot \Delta x -g[/tex]

If we know that [tex]k = 1.4\times 10^{4}\,\frac{N}{m}[/tex], [tex]m = 60\,kg[/tex], [tex]\Delta x = 0.41\,m[/tex] and [tex]g = 9.807\,\frac{m}{s^{2}}[/tex], the acceleration of the person when spring reaches its greatest compression at the bottom of their jump is:

[tex]a = \frac{1.4\times 10^{4}\,\frac{N}{m} }{60\,kg} \cdot (0.41\,m)-9.807\,\frac{m}{s^{2}}[/tex]

[tex]a = 85.859\,\frac{m}{s^{2}}[/tex]

Which corresponds to option B.

Suppose that you roll a die 8 times. What is the probability that you roll a six three or fewer times

Answers

Answer:

0.96

Step-by-step explanation:

Given that the a die is rolled 8 number of times.

[tex]n[/tex] = 8

Probability of getting a 6 on roll of a die,  [tex]p=\frac{1}{6}[/tex]

Probability of not getting a 6 on roll of a die,  [tex]q=1-p=1-\frac{1}{6}=\frac{5}{6}[/tex]

Probability of getting 6 three or fewer times:

[tex]P(r \le 3)=P(r=0)+P(r=1)+P(r=2)+P(r=3)[/tex]

Formula:

[tex]P(r=k)=_nC_k.p^k.q^{n-k}[/tex]

Putting the values using this formula:

[tex]P(r \le 3)=_8C_0.\frac{1}{6}^0.\frac{5}{6}^{8-0}+_8C_1.\frac{1}{6}^1.\frac{5}{6}^{8-1}+_8C_2.\frac{1}{6}^2.\frac{5}{6}^{8-2}+_8C_3.\frac{1}{6}^3.\frac{5}{6}^{8-3}\\\Rightarrow P(r \le 3)=1.\frac{5}{6}^{8}+8.\frac{1}{6}.\frac{5}{6}^{7}+28.\frac{1}{36}^2.\frac{5}{6}^{6}+56.\frac{1}{216}.\frac{5}{6}^{5}\\\Rightarrow P(r \le 3)=0.23+0.37+0.26+0.1=\bold{0.96}[/tex]

So basically, since CD and AB are parallel, that means that angle2 and angle3 are similar, due to the corresponding angle postulate. Furthermore, it is given that AG and CE are similar, so angle1 and angle2 are similar on the same principle.

This means that angle3 and angle4 are similar, since it is given that angle1 and angle4 are similar. A bisecting line divides a whole angle into two, equal value angles, and since ECF is composed of angle3 and angle4, and angle3 and angle4 are the same value, that means the line that forms angle3 and angle4 is bisecting the ECF, therefore CD bisects ECF.

Step-by-step explanation:

3x - 2y = 18

As parallel lines have same slope, slope of the line parallel to the line 3x - 2y = 18 is 3/2.

Hope it helps :)

Slope of a line parallel to the line whose equation is 3x - 2y = 18 is 3/2.

What is Slope of Line?

The slope of the line is the ratio of the rise to the run, or rise divided by the run. It describes the steepness of line in the coordinate plane.

The slope intercept form of a line is y=mx+b, where m is slope and b is the y intercept.

The slope of line passing through two points (x₁, y₁) and (x₂, y₂) is

m=y₂-y₁/x₂-x₁

Two lines are said to be parallel when their slopes are same.

To find the slope of parallel line, we need to find slope of 3x - 2y = 18

3x-2y=18

-2y=18-3x

y=-18/2+3/2x

y=3/2x-18/2

Slope of line is 3/2

Hence, slope of a line parallel to the line whose equation is 3x - 2y = 18 is 3/2.

A probability is given by the number of desired outcomes divided by the number of total outcomes.

In this problem, there are 20,358,520 different outcomes. The given outcome can happen in 1024 ways, and we want to find the probability of it's complement, hence those are the non-desired outcomes and the probability is:

p = (20,358,520 - 1,2024)/20,358,520 = 0.999409.

0.999409 = 99.9409% probability of not being dealt this type of hand.

Answers

Answer:

Decision rule

Fail to reject the null  hypothesis

Conclusion

The sample evidence is not sufficient to conclude that more than three out of four financial institutions that offer online banking facilities are prone to fraud.

Step-by-step explanation:

From the question we are told that

  The sample size is  n =  214

   The sample proportion is p = 0.78

   The level of significance is [tex]\alpha = 0.05[/tex]

Generally the population proportion is mathematically represented as

      [tex]p = \frac{3}{4} =0.75[/tex] (gotten from the statement  ''three out of four'' in the question)

The null hypothesis is [tex]H_o : p = 0.75[/tex]

The alternative hypothesis [tex]H_a : p > 0.75[/tex]

Generally the test statistics is mathematically represented as

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

=>    [tex]z = \frac{0.78- 0.75}{ \sqrt{\frac{ 0.75(1-0.75)}{214} } }[/tex]

=>  [tex]z = 1.01[/tex]

Generally the p-value is mathematically represented as

    [tex]p-value  = P(Z > z )[/tex]

=> [tex]p-value  = P(Z > 1.01 )[/tex]

From the z-table  

    [tex]P(Z > 1.01 ) = 0.15625[/tex]

So

    [tex]p-value  = 0.15625 [/tex]

From the obtained values we see that [tex]p-value > \alpha[/tex] hence we fail to reject the null hypothesis

 Therefore we can conclude that the sample evidence is  not  sufficient to conclude that more than three out of four financial institutions that offer online banking facilities are prone to fraud.

b. For those values of k, verify that every member of the family of functions y = A sin(kt) + B cos(kt) is also a solution.

Answers

Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:

Given y = coskt

y' = -ksinkt

y'' = -k²coskt

Substitute this y'' into the expression 25y'' = −16y

25(-k²coskt) = -16(coskt)

25k²coskt = 16(coskt)

25k² = 16

k² = 16/25

k = ±√16/25

k = ±4/5

b) from the DE 25y'' = −16y

Rearrange

25y''+16y = 0

Expressing using auxiliary equation

25m² + 16 = 0

25m² = -16

m² = -16/25

m = ±4/5 I

m = 0+4/5 I

Since the auxiliary root is complex number

The solution to the DE will be expressed as;

y = Asinmt + Bsinmt

Since k = m

y = Asinkt+Bsinkt where A and B are constants
