The American Heart Association is about to conduct an anti-smoking campaign and wants to know the fraction of Americans over 33 who smoke. Step 1 of 2: Suppose a sample of 1267 Americans over 33 is drawn. Of these people, 913 don't smoke. Using the data, estimate the proportion of Americans over 33 who smoke. Enter your answer as a fraction or a decimal number rounded to three decimal places.

Answers

Answer 1

Answer:

The estimate for the proportion of Americans over 33 who smoke is 0.28.

Step-by-step explanation:

Proportion of Americans over 33 who smoke.

Number who smoke divided by the size of the sample.

In this question:

Sample of 1267.

913 don't smoke, so 1267 - 913 = 354 smoke. Then

[tex]p = \frac{354}{1267} = 0.28[/tex]

The estimate for the proportion of Americans over 33 who smoke is 0.28.

Keenan scored 80 points on an exam that had a mean score of 77 points and a standard deviation of 4.9 points. Rachel scored 78 points on an exam that had a mean score of 75 points and a standard deviation of 3.7 points. Find Keenan's and Rachel’s z-scores, to the nearest hundredth.

Answers

Answer:

Keenan's z-score was of 0.61.

Rachel's z-score was of 0.81.

Step-by-step explanation:

Z-score:

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.

Keenan scored 80 points on an exam that had a mean score of 77 points and a standard deviation of 4.9 points.

This means that [tex]X = 80, \mu = 77, \sigma = 4.9[/tex]

So

[tex]Z = \frac{X - \mu}{\sigma}[/tex]

[tex]Z = \frac{80 - 77}{4.9}[/tex]

[tex]Z = 0.61[/tex]

Keenan's z-score was of 0.61.

Rachel scored 78 points on an exam that had a mean score of 75 points and a standard deviation of 3.7 points.

This means that [tex]X = 78, \mu = 75, \sigma = 3.7[/tex]. So

[tex]Z = \frac{X - \mu}{\sigma}[/tex]

[tex]Z = \frac{75 - 78}{3.7}[/tex]

[tex]Z = 0.81[/tex]

Rachel's z-score was of 0.81.

A building in a city has a rectangular base. The length of the base measures 70 ft less than twice the width. The perimeter of this base is 820 ft. What are the dimensions of the base?

Answers

Answer:

160 ft, 250ft

Step-by-step explanation:

Rectangular base:

Width = w

length =2w - 70

Perimeter = 820 ft

2*(length + width) = 820

2*(2w - 70 + w ) = 820

2 *(2w + w - 70) = 820     {Combine like terms}

2* (3w - 70) = 820

3w*2 - 70*2 = 820

6w - 140  = 820    

6w  = 820 + 140     {Add 140 to both side}

6w = 960     {Divide both sides by 6}

w = 960/6

w = 160 ft

length = 2*160 - 70

          = 320 - 70

          = 250 ft

Answers

Answer:

[tex]x^2 + (y-60)^2 = 30,625[/tex]

Step-by-step explanation:

There are 42 carts, so there is 42 spaces in between them; if one of those spaces are 25pi/3 feet long, then 42 of them would be 25*42*pi/3 = 350pi (Perfect! no fractions)

350pi is the circumference. Now if we plug that into the circumference equation we get:

C = 2pi*r

350pi = 2pi*r

Divide both sides by pi to get rid of it

350 = 2r

Divide both sides by 2

r = 175 feet

So the new equation to graph it is:

x^2+y^2 = 175^2 = 30,625

We also know that the center of the Ferris wheel has to be at least 60 feet from the ground. Since the radius is more than that, a good bit of the Ferris wheel has to be underground OR we can make it higher (keyword: at least) if we want it to be above ground. I'll do the equation for underground since it more closely represents the question.

subtracting a number from y, shifts the graph up that much so:

[tex]x^2 + (y-60)^2 = 30,625[/tex]

I can't really draw it electronically but I can graph it:

Hector puts together two tables to make a long table for a class picnic.
One table is 7 feet 7 inches long. The other table is 6 feet 9 inches long.
What is the total length of the two tables?

Answers

Answer: 14 feet 4 inches

Step-by-step explanation:

Given: The length of the first table = 7 feet 7 inches

The length of the second table = 6 feet 9 inches

The total length of two tables = 7 feet 7 inches + 6 feet 9 inches

= (7+6) feet (7+9) inches

=13 feet 16 inches

Since 1 feet = 12 inches

The total length of two tables = 13 feet+ (12 inches +4 inches)

=13 feet +( 1 feet +4 inches)

= 14 feet 4 inches

Hence, the total length of the two tables =  14 feet 4 inches
