A scientist claims that 7% 7 % of viruses are airborne. If the scientist is accurate, what is the probability that the proportion of airborne viruses in a sample of 600 600 viruses would differ from the population proportion by greater than 3% 3 % ? Round your answer to four decimal places.

Answers

Answer 1

Answer:

The probability is [tex]P(|p-\^{p}| >  0.03)  =   0.0040[/tex]

Step-by-step explanation:

From the question we are told that

   The population proportion is [tex]p =  0.07[/tex]

   The mean of the sampling distribution is   [tex]\mu_p =  0.07[/tex]

   The sample size is n = 600

Generally the standard deviation is mathematically represented as

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

=>    [tex]\sigma_p  =  \sqrt{\frac{0.07(1 -0.07)}{600} }[/tex]    

=>    [tex]\sigma_p  =  0.010416 [/tex]    

Generally the probability that the proportion of airborne viruses in a sample of 600 viruses would differ from the population proportion by greater than 3% is mathematically represented as

      [tex]P(|p-\^{p}| >  0.03) =  1 - P(|p -\^{p}| \le 0.03)[/tex]

=>   [tex]P(|p-\^{p}| >  0.03)  =  1 -  P(-0.03 \le p -\^{p} \le 0.03 )[/tex]

Now  add p  to  both side of the inequality

=>   [tex]P(|p-\^{p}| >  0.03)  =  1 -  P( 0.07-0.03  \le \^{p} \le 0.03+ 0.07 )[/tex]

=>   [tex]P(|p-\^{p}| >  0.03)  =  1 -  P(0.04 \le \^{p} \le 0.10 )[/tex]

Now  converting the probabilities to their respective standardized score

=> [tex]P(|p-\^{p}| >  0.03)  =  1 -  P(\frac{0.04 - 0.07}{0.010416}  \le Z \le \frac{0.10 -0.07}{0.010416}  )[/tex]

=> [tex]P(|p-\^{p}| >  0.03)  =  1 -  P(-2.88  \le Z \le 2.88 )[/tex]

=>   [tex]P(|p-\^{p}| >  0.03)  =   1 - [P(Z \le 2.88) - P(Z \le -2.88)][/tex]

From the z-table  

       [tex]P(Z \le 2.88)  =  0.9980[/tex]

and

       [tex]P(Z \le -2.88)  = 0.0020[/tex]

So

     [tex]P(|p-\^{p}| >  0.03)  =   1 - [0.9980 - 0.0020][/tex]

=>   [tex]P(|p-\^{p}| >  0.03)  =   0.0040[/tex]

As the exponent on the base 10 increases, does
the standard notation number get larger or
smaller in value? Explain why.

Help Please

Answers

Answer:

Since the exponent on 10 is positive, I know they are looking for a LARGE number, so I'll need to move the decimal point to the right, in order to make the number LARGER. Since the exponent on 10 is "12", I'll need to move the decimal point twelve places over.

First, I'll move the decimal point twelve places over. I make little loops when I count off the places, to keep track:

3.6 _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ .

Then I fill in the loops with zeroes:

3.600000000000.

In other words, the number is 3,600,000,000,000, or 3.6 trillion

Step-by-step explanation:

When we say exponent on base 10, this is represented mathematically as:

[tex]10^{x}[/tex]

Where:

10 = Base 10

x = Exponent

When the exponent on the base 10 increases, the standard notation number gets larger in value. This is because the exponent is directly proportional to the size of the standard notation of the number.

For example:

[tex]10^{2} = 100[/tex]

[tex]10^{3} = 1000[/tex]

[tex]10^{8} = 100000000[/tex]

What is an equation that goes through (12, 5); m = -3
Please help

Answers

Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:

Use this formula:

y - y1 = m ( x - x1 )

We are told m = -3 and given the point (12 , 5) ---- > so x1 = 12 and y1= 5

Put these values into the formula above and you get:

y - y1 = m ( x - x1 )

y - 5 = -3 ( x - 12 )

y - 5 = -3x + 36

y = -3x + 36 + 5

y = -3x + 41

7/8 (how many pounds she used to have) - 1/4 (how much she ate at the movies) = ?

✨To make this easier let us turn 1/4 into 2/8 (both fractions are equivalent):✨

is this reasoning inductive or deductive? explain why.

1. all pennies are copper. if your friend gives you a penny, you conclude that the penny is copper colored.

2. all even numbers are divisible by 2. 28 is even. therefore, 28 is divisible by 2.

please help me out with this and also include reasoning! thank you so much!

Answers

Answer:

No. 1 is inductive, cos the evidence is based on proberbility as not all pennies are silver color, since thier color could change over time (fade)

while

No 2 is deductive since all even numners are divisible by 2, there is a full assurance of the outcome.

Answer: The reasonings are deductive. They tried to do a trick question I think.

Step-by-step explanation: There both deductive because the first sentence has a key word which is Conclude. The word might not seem to matter until you look up what  deductive means. Deductive and Inductive are different because one is specifics observation and then draw a conclusion and the other is specifics conclusion  follows a general theory. And the key word in deductive is conclusion in the first sentence it says that you conclude. Deductive means a conclusion that follows a general theory. The deductive is following a general theory which means if the facts are right then the conclusion should  be right. The deductive makes sense in the first because if the facts that all the pennies are copper is true then the penny your friend gave you should be copper. The second sentence same thing if the fact was right then any number that is even can be divisible by 2. So deductive makes sense in both sentences. Inductive makes sense it inside one on the sentences not both. Inductive makes sense inside the first because the person could have seen that the pennies were all made of copper. i think that it being deductive is a better choice that inductive and if you still are confused you can look up "difference between inductive and deductive reasoning" and go to images it should have a blue and pink picture of the definition of them. Sorry I wrote it so long you can just shortened it down for the answer.
