According to an AP-Ipsos poll (June 15, 2005), 42% of 1001 randomly selected adult Americans made plans in May 2005 based on a weather report that turned out to be wrong.

a. Construct and interpret a 99% confidence interval for the proportion of Americans who made plans in May 2005 based on an incorrect weather report.
b. Do you think it is reasonable to generalize this estimate to other months of the year

Answers

Answer 1

Answer:

a) The 99% confidence interval for the proportion of Americans who made plans in May 2005 based on an incorrect weather report is (0.3798,0.4602). This means that we are 99% sure that the true population proportion is in this interval.

b) No, since May is a month with a wide range of possible weather.

Step-by-step explanation:

a)

In a sample with a number n of people surveyed with a probability of a success of [tex]\pi[/tex], and a confidence level of [tex]1-\alpha[/tex], we have the following confidence interval of proportions.

[tex]\pi \pm z\sqrt{\frac{\pi(1-\pi)}{n}}[/tex]

In which

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

42% of 1001 randomly selected adult Americans made plans in May 2005 based on a weather report that turned out to be wrong.

This means that [tex]p = 0.42, n = 1001[/tex]

99% confidence level

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

The lower limit of this interval is:

[tex]\pi - z\sqrt{\frac{\pi(1-\pi)}{n}} = 0.42 - 2.575\sqrt{\frac{0.42*0.58}{1001}} = 0.3798[/tex]

The upper limit of this interval is:

[tex]\pi + z\sqrt{\frac{\pi(1-\pi)}{n}} = 0.42 + 2.575\sqrt{\frac{0.42*0.58}{1001}} = 0.4602[/tex]

The 99% confidence interval for the proportion of Americans who made plans in May 2005 based on an incorrect weather report is (0.3798,0.4602). This means that we are 99% sure that the true population proportion is in this interval.

b. Do you think it is reasonable to generalize this estimate to other months of the year

No, since May is a month with a vast number of possible outcomes, as it is in the spring, not being in the winter(cold) or summer(hot), which means that it can be both hot or cold, wet or dry,...

A manufacturer of potato chips would like to know whether its bag filling machine works correctly at the 417 gram setting. It is believed that the machine is underfilling the bags. A 13 bag sample had a mean of 415 grams with a standard deviation of 30. A level of significance of 0.1 will be used. Assume the population distribution is approximately normal. Determine the decision rule for rejecting the null hypothesis. Round your answer to three decimal places.

Answers

Answer:

P value = 0.407

Hence, as P-value (0.407) is greater than 0.1

Fail to reject Null hypothesis

Step-by-step explanation:

Given the data in the question;

sample size n = 13

sample mean x" = 415

standard deviation s = 30

level of significance = 0.1

so;

Null hypothesis H₀ : μ = 417

Alternative hypothesis Hₐ : μ < 417

degree of freedom DF = n - 1 = 13 -1 = 12

Rejection Region { level of significance = 0.1, df = 12 }

critical value of t is - 1.356 as { left tailed test }

Test Statistics;

t = (x" - μ) / [tex]\frac{s}{\sqrt{n} }[/tex]

we substitute

t =  (415 - 417) / [tex]\frac{30}{\sqrt{13} }[/tex]

t = -2 / [tex]\frac{30}{\sqrt{13} }[/tex]

t = -0.24

so, from table;

P value = 0.407

Hence, as P-value (0.407) is greater than 0.1

write a equation in the form y= mx or y= mx + b to represent the relationship between the independent and dependent qualities?

Answers

Answer:

y = 10x

Step-by-step explanation:

Independent variable (x) = time (minutes)

Dependent variable (y) = distance (feet)

The line passes through the point of origin (0, 0), which means it represents a proportional relationship. Therefore, the equation would be in the form of y = mx. Where,

m = slope = y/x

Using any point on the line, say (5, 50),

m = 50/5

m = 10

To write the equation, substitute m = 10 into y = mx

Thus:

y = 10x
