Refer to the data set of 20 randomly selected presidents given below. Treat the data as a sample and find the proportion of presidents who were taller than their opponents. Use that result to construct a​ 95% confidence interval estimate of the population percentage. Based on the​ result, does it appear that greater height is an advantage for presidential​ candidates? Why or why​ not?

Answer 1

Complete Question

The data for this question is shown on the first uploaded image

Answer:

The 95% confidence interval estimate of the population percentage is  

   [tex] 33.2\% <  p < 76.8 \% [/tex]

Step-by-step explanation:

On the data the first value is the height of the president while the other value is the height of his opponent

    The sample size is  n  =  20  

Looking at the data we see that out of the 20  presidents that only 11 is taller than their opponent

 So the proportion of presidents that are taller than their opponents is  

      [tex]\^ p = \frac{11}{20}[/tex]  

=>   [tex]\^ p = 0.55[/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   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{0.55 (1- 0.55) }{20}} [/tex]

   [tex]E = 0.218[/tex]

Generally 95% confidence interval is mathematically represented as  

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

=>    [tex]0.55-0.218 <  p < 0.55+ 0.218 [/tex]

=>    [tex]0.332 <  p < 0.768 [/tex]

Converting to percentage

        [tex](0.332*100)\% <  p < (0.768 *100) \% [/tex]

=>    [tex] 33.2\% <  p < 76.8 \% [/tex]

Find the solution of this system of equations
4x - 2y = 0
-X - 2y = -25

Answers

Answer:

y = 25

X = 25/2 is the value of X an dy

Answer:

x=5

y=10

Step-by-step explanation:

4x-2y=0

-x-2y=-25

subtract

5x=0-(-25)

5x=25

x=25/5=5

-5-2y=-25

2y=-5+25

2y=20

The function f (x) = 6x + 13 defines a
sequence for x > 1. What are the first three
terms of the sequence?

Answers

Answer:

15, 21, 27

Step-by-step explanation:

Given the function :

f(x) = 6x + 13 ; which defines a sequence for x > 1

The first three terms of the sequence ;

x > 1 ;

Hence x = 2, 3, 4

The sequence :

f(2) = 6(2) + 3 = 12 + 3 = 15

f(3) = 6(3) + 3 = 18 + 3 = 21

f(4) = 6(4) + 3 = 24 + 3 = 27

Can you help me find the values of x and z?

Answers

Answer:

x = 96

z = 25

Step-by-step explanation:

x and 84 are supplementary angles.

this means that they add together to make 180.

using this, you can make the following equation:

x + 84 = 180

subtract 84 from both sides of the equation

x + 84 - 84 = 180 - 84

x = 180 - 84

x = 96

84 and 3z + 9 are vertical angles

vertical angles are equal.

using this, you can make the following equation:

84 = 3z + 9

subtract 9 from both sides of the equation

84 - 9 = 3z

75 = 3z

divide both sides of the equation by 3

75/3 = 3z/3

25 = z

Removing the -6 makes the average go from 4.1 to 5.2

Removing the -6 makes the median go from 4 to 5

Step-by-step explanation:

Average:

-6+3+3+3+3+5+6+6+8+10 = 41

41/10 = 4.1 (This is the mean/average)

If we remove -6, then:

3+3+3+3+5+6+6+8+10 = 47

47/9 = 5.2222 (This would be the new average)

So removing the -6 makes the average go from 4.1 to 5.2

Median:

The median of (-6+3+3+3+3+5+6+6+8+10) is between 3 and 5, so the median is 4.

Without -6, the median of (3+3+3+3+5+6+6+8+10) is 5.

So removing the -6 makes the median go from 4 to 5

Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:

Factor 3 into its prime factors

          3 = 3  

Note that 3 is a prime number, it only has itself as a factor (that is on top of the trivial factor "1")

To simplify a square root, we extract factors which are squares, i.e., factors that are raised to an even exponent.

In our case however, all the factors are only raised to the first power and this means that the square root can not be simplified

The simplified SQRT looks like this:

A box contains 15 large marbles and 11 small marbles. Each marble is either green or white. 9 of the large marbles are green, and 3 of the small marbles are white. If a marble is randomly selected from the box, what is the probability that it is small or white? Express your answer as a fraction or a decimal number rounded to four decimal places.

Answers

Answer:

The probability of selecting a small or white marble is 10/13

Step-by-step explanation:

The total number of marbles is 15 + 11 = 26 marbles

The probability that we want to calculate is if the marble selected is small or white.

So we need to find the number of small marbles as well as the number of white marbles

We can construct a table to see the distribution of the marbles. Please check the attachment for this.

From the table , we can see that there are 11 small marbles and a total of 9 white marbles

The probability of selecting a white marble is;

number of white marbles/total number of marbles = 9/26

The probability of selecting a small marble will be ;

number of small marbles/total number of marbles = 11/26

In probability, whenever we have or, we tend to add

So therefore, the probability of selecting a white or small marble = Probability of selecting a white marble + Probability of selecting a small marble

Mathematically, that would be 9/26 + 11/26 = 20/26

So the probability is 10/13
