The average size of single-family homes in the U.S. is 2,390 square feet. A random sample of 100 homes in California yielded the mean of 2,507 square feet and the standard deviation of 257 square feet. Do the sample data provide sufficient evidence to conclude that the mean size of California homes exceeds the national average? Test using significance level of 0.01. (7 Points)

Answers

Answer 1

Answer:

The decision rule is

Reject the null hypothesis

The conclusion is  

There is sufficient evidence to conclude that the  mean size of California homes exceeds the national average

Step-by-step explanation:

From the question we are told that

    The  population  mean is  [tex]\mu = 2390 \ ft^2[/tex]  

    The sample size is  n  =  100

     The sample mean is  [tex]\= x = 2 507 \ ft^2[/tex]

      The standard deviation is  [tex]s = 257 \ ft^2[/tex]

      The level of significance is  [tex]\alpha = 0.01[/tex]

The  null  hypothesis is  [tex]H_o : \mu = 2390[/tex]

The  alternative hypothesis is  [tex]H_a : \mu > 2390[/tex]

Generally the test statistics is mathematically represented as

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

=>      [tex]z = \frac{2507 - 2390 }{ \frac{ 257 }{ \sqrt{100 } } }[/tex]  

=>      [tex]z = 4.55[/tex]

From the z table  the area under the normal curve to the left corresponding to  4.55  is  

         [tex]p-value = P( X > 4.55 ) = 0.00[/tex]

From the value obtained we see that  [tex]p-value < \alpha[/tex] hence

The decision rule is

Reject the null hypothesis

The conclusion is  

There is sufficient evidence to conclude that the  mean size of California homes exceeds the national average

25 nickels to 25 dimes

Answers

Answer:

[tex]N:D = 1: 2[/tex]

Step-by-step explanation:

Given

Represent Nickels with N and Dimes with D

[tex]N=25[/tex]

[tex]D=25[/tex]

Required

Write as a ratio to lowest term

Ratio of Nickels to Dime is represented as N:D

[tex]N:D = 25\ nickels : 25\ dimes[/tex]

Convert nickels to dollar

[tex]N:D = 25\ * \$0.05. : 25\ * \$0.10[/tex]

[tex]N:D = 1.25 : 2.5[/tex]

Divide through by 1.25

[tex]N:D = 1.25/2.25 : 2.5/1.25[/tex]

[tex]N:D = 1: 2[/tex]

Hence, the ratio to lowest term is 1:2

Write the expression as a radical.

Answers

Answer:

[tex]5\sqrt{5}\left(ab\right)^{\frac{3}{2}}=\sqrt{\left(5ab\right)^3}[/tex]

Step-by-step explanation:

Let us consider the expression

[tex]5\sqrt{5}\left(ab\right)^{\frac{3}{2}}[/tex]

Writing the expression as a radical

But, let us revise some rules:

[tex]\sqrt{a}=a^{\frac{1}{2}}[/tex]

[tex]\left(a^b\right)^c=a^{bc},\:\quad \mathrm{\:assuming\:}a\ge 0[/tex]

[tex]\left(a\cdot \:b\right)^n=a^nb^n[/tex]

let us solve now

[tex]5\sqrt{5}\left(ab\right)^{\frac{3}{2}}[/tex]

[tex]=5^{\frac{3}{2}}\left(ab\right)^{\frac{3}{2}}[/tex]         ∵  [tex]\:5^{\frac{3}{2}}=5\sqrt{5}[/tex]

[tex]=\left(5ab\right)^{\frac{3}{2}}[/tex]

[tex]=\left(5ab\right)^{3\cdot \frac{1}{2}}[/tex]

[tex]=\left(\left(5ab\right)^3\right)^{\frac{1}{2}}[/tex]

[tex]\mathrm{Apply\:radical\:rule}:\quad \sqrt{a}=a^{\frac{1}{2}}[/tex]

[tex]=\sqrt{\left(5ab\right)^3}[/tex]

Thus,

[tex]5\sqrt{5}\left(ab\right)^{\frac{3}{2}}=\sqrt{\left(5ab\right)^3}[/tex]

Wal-Mart conducted a study to check the accuracy of checkout scanners at its stores. At each of the 60 randomly selected Wal-Mart stores, 100 random items were scanned. The researchers found that 52 of the 60 stores had more than 2 items that were priced inaccurately (the national standards allow a maximum of 2 items out of 100 items priced accurately by the scanners). a) Construct a 95% confidence interval for proportion of Wal-Mart stores that have more than 2 items priced inaccurately per 100 items scanned and give a practical interpretation of this interval. (3 Points) b) Wal-Mart claims that 99% of its stores comply with the national standard on accuracy of price scanners. Comment on the believability of Wal-Mart’s claim based on your results in part (a). (1 Point) c) Determine the number of Wal-Mart stores that must be sampled in order to estimate the true proportion to within 0.05 with 90% confidence. (3 Points)

Answers

Answer:

a

The 95% confidence interval is

   [tex] 0.7811 <  p <  0.9529 [/tex]

Generally the interval above can interpreted as

    There is 95% confidence that the true proportion of Wal-Mart stores that have more than 2 items priced inaccurately per 100 items scanned lie within the interval  

b

  Generally  99% is outside the interval obtained in a  above then the claim of Wal-mart is not believable  

c

 [tex] n =  125  \  stores [/tex]  

Step-by-step explanation:

From the question we are told that

    The sample size is  n =  60  

    The number of stores that had more than 2 items price incorrectly is  k =  52  

   

Generally the sample proportion is mathematically represented as  

             [tex]\^ p = \frac{ k }{ n }[/tex]

=>          [tex]\^ p = \frac{ 52 }{ 60 }[/tex]

=>          [tex]\^ p = 0.867[/tex]

From the question we are told the confidence level is  95% , hence the level of significance is    

      [tex]\alpha = (100 - 95 ) \%[/tex]

=>   [tex]\alpha = 0.05[/tex]

Generally from the normal distribution table the critical value  of  [tex]\frac{\alpha }{2}[/tex] is  

   [tex]Z_{\frac{\alpha }{2} } =  1.96[/tex]

Generally the margin of error is mathematically represented as  

     [tex]E =  Z_{\frac{\alpha }{2} } * \sqrt{\frac{\^ p (1- \^ p)}{n} } [/tex]

=>   [tex]E =  1.96  * \sqrt{\frac{ 0.867  (1- 0.867)}{60} } [/tex]

=>   [tex]E =  0.0859  [/tex]

Generally 95% confidence interval is mathematically represented as  

      [tex]\^ p -E <  p <  \^ p +E[/tex]

=>    [tex] 0.867  - 0.0859  <  p <  0.867  +  0.0859 [/tex]

=>    [tex] 0.7811 <  p <  0.9529 [/tex]

Generally the interval above can interpreted as

    There is 95% confidence that the true proportion of Wal-Mart stores that have more than 2 items priced inaccurately per 100 items scanned lie within the interval  

Considering question b

Generally  99% is outside the interval obtained in a  above then the claim of Wal-mart is not believable  

   

Considering question c

From the question we are told that

    The margin of error is  E = 0.05

From the question we are told the confidence level is  95% , hence the level of significance is    

      [tex]\alpha = (100 - 95 ) \%[/tex]

=>   [tex]\alpha = 0.05[/tex]

Generally from the normal distribution table the critical value  of  [tex]\frac{\alpha }{2}[/tex] is  

   [tex]Z_{\frac{\alpha }{2} } =  1.645[/tex]

Generally the sample size is mathematically represented as  

    [tex]n = [\frac{Z_{\frac{\alpha }{2} }}{E} ]^2 * \^ p (1 - \^ p ) [/tex]

=> [tex]n=  [\frac{1.645 }}{0.05} ]^2 * 0.867  (1 - 0.867 ) [/tex]

=>   [tex] n =  125  \  stores [/tex]

Monitors manufactured by TSI Electronics have life spans that have a normal distribution with a standard deviation of 15001500 hours and a mean life span of 16,00016,000 hours. If a monitor is selected at random, find the probability that the life span of the monitor will be more than 18,09918,099 hours.

Answers

Answer:

0.0809

Step-by-step explanation:

Given that :

Mean(m) = 16000

Standard deviation (s) = 1500

Probability that the life span of the monitor will be more than 18,099

P(x > 18099)

Using the Zscore formula :

Zscore =(x - m) / s

Zscore = (18099 - 16000) / 1500

Zscore = 2099 / 1500

Zscore = 1.399

P(Z > 1.399)

Using the Z probability calculator :

P(Z > 1.399) = 0.080906

= 0.0809
