A study of the career paths of hotel general managers sent questionnaires to an SRS of 230 hotels belonging to major U.S. hotel chains. There were 109 responses. The average time these 109 general managers had spent with their current company was 12.08 years. (Take it as known that the standard deviation of time with the company for all general managers is 2.7 years.) (a) Find the margin of error for an 80% confidence interval to estimate the mean time a general manager had spent with their current company: years (b) Find the margin of error for a 99% confidence interval to estimate the mean time a general manager had spent with their current company: years (c) In general, increasing the confidence level the margin of error (width) of the confidence interval. (Enter: ''DECREASES'', ''DOES NOT CHANGE'' or ''INCREASES'', without the quotes.)

Answers

Answer 1

Answer:

a)

The margin of error is of 0.33 years.

b)

The margin of error is of 0.67 years.

c)

INCREASES

Step-by-step explanation:

In this question, we have that:

Sample of 109 means that [tex]n = 109[/tex]

The standard deviation of time with the company for all general managers is 2.7 years, which means that [tex]\sigma = 2.7[/tex]

Question a:

We have that to find our [tex]\alpha[/tex] level, that is the subtraction of 1 by the confidence interval divided by 2. So:

[tex]\alpha = \frac{1 - 0.8}{2} = 0.1[/tex]

Now, we have to find z in the Ztable as such z has a pvalue of [tex]1 - \alpha[/tex].

That is z with a pvalue of [tex]1 - 0.1= 0.9[/tex], so Z = 1.28.

Now, find the margin of error M as such

[tex]M = z\frac{\sigma}{\sqrt{n}}[/tex]

In which [tex]\sigma[/tex] is the standard deviation of the population and n is the size of the sample.

So

[tex]M = 1.28\frac{2.7}{\sqrt{109}} = 0.33[/tex]

The margin of error is of 0.33 years.

Question b:

We have that to find our [tex]\alpha[/tex] level, that is the subtraction of 1 by the confidence interval divided by 2. So:

[tex]\alpha = \frac{1 - 0.99}{2} = 0.005[/tex]

Now, we have to find z in the Ztable as such z has a pvalue of [tex]1 - \alpha[/tex].

That is z with a pvalue of [tex]1 - 0.005= 0.995[/tex], so Z = 2.575. So

[tex]M = 2.575\frac{2.7}{\sqrt{109}} = 0.67[/tex]

The margin of error is of 0.67 years.

(c) In general, increasing the confidence level the margin of error (width) of the confidence interval.

We have that:

[tex]M = z\frac{\sigma}{\sqrt{n}}[/tex]

That is, M and z are direct proportional, and since z increases when the confidence level increases, the marign of error will increase. So the answer is INCREASES.

In the construction of bridges, engineers use a formula to help
determine the allowable stress on a bridge rocker, a component of the
bridge that handles the stress and weight placed on the pavement of the
bridge. The engineers use the formula F =11/300d (F − 13), where F is the
strength of the steel in kilopound per square inch and d is the diameter
of the rocker in millimeters.
Solve the formula F =11/300d (F − 13) for d.

Answers

From the engineers formula given, making d the subject of the formula gives us; d = 300F/(11(F - 13))

How to change the subject of the formula?

We are given the engineers formula as;

F = (¹¹/₃₀₀)d(F - 13)

Where;

F is the strength of the steel in kilopound per square inch.

d is the diameter of the rocker in millimeters.

From the given formula, we can start by;

Multiply both sides by 300 to get;

300F = 11d(F - 13)

Divide both sides by 11(F - 13) to get;

d = 300F/(11(F - 13))

Name the image of p (9, 1.5) after being translated along the vector <3, -0.5>

Answers

The image for P(9, 1.5) after Translation is P'( 12, 1).

What is Translation?

Each point in a figure is moved the same distance in the same direction using a type of transformation known as translation.

For example, this transformation moves the parallelogram to the right 5 units and up 3 units. It is written ( x , y ) → ( x + 5 , y + 3 ) .

Given:

P(9, 1.5) with Translating Vector (3, -0.5).

So, Applying the Translation we get

P(9 + 3, 1.5 + (-0.5))

= P(12 , 1.5- 0.5)

= P(12, 1)

hence, the image is P'( 12, 1).

Complete table with the Y-values for the equation y=ײ+1

Answers

The complete table of values of the function is

x    0    1    2    3

y     0   2   5   10

How to complete the table of values of the function?

From the question, we have the following parameters that can be used in our computation:

The equation of the function is given as

y = x² + 1

The above function is a quadratic function

This is so because it has the following representation

y = ax² + bx + c

When this function is compared to the equation y = x² + 1, we have the following notations

a = 1

b = 0

c = 1

From the incomplete table of values, we have the x values to be

x = 1, 2, 3

Substitute x = 1, 2, 3 in the equation y = x² + 1

So, we have

When x = 1, y = (1)² + 1 = 2

When x = 2, y = (2)² + 1 = 5

When x = 3, y = (3)² + 1 = 10

When these values are represented on a table, we have

x    0    1    2    3

y     0   2   5   10

The above represents the complete table

What are the coordinates of the image rectangle for a scale factor of 3 if the center of dilation is the origin?

This doesn’t have a rectangle picture btw
I will mark brainlist

Answers

Answer: Choice B)

Explanation:

You mentioned there isn't a diagram to go with this, but I'm assuming that this problem is referring to a previous problem you posted. In that problem, it mentions that point W is at (1,-2). If we apply the scale factor 3, then we're tripling each coordinate. That means x = 1 becomes x = 3, and y = -2 becomes y = -6

We can write it like this:

(1,-2) ---> 3*(1, -2) = (3*1, 3*(-2) ) = (3, -6)

Only choice B has W'(3,-6) so this is likely the final answer.

If we apply this dilation to every point, then that effectively makes quadrilateral W'X'Y'Z' to be three times longer and taller than compared to quadrilateral WXYZ. In other words, its side lengths are 3 times longer.

Q:write the equation of the line that is given slope an y-intercept?

Slope=Undefined y-intercept= -4

Answers

Answer:

y = mx - 4

Step-by-step explanation:

m is the slope, while -4 is the y intercept

if the slope is undefined, that means it is just a vertical line. All vertical lines can be written as: x=a with a being the x-intercept. However, you are given a y-intercept. Therefore, it must be on the y-axis. So the equation should be x=0

Which graph represents the solution to 1/7 m < - 1/22


Answers

The graph representing the solution will be of the form a line tending towards left from the point -7/22.

What is Linear Inequalities?

Linear inequalities are defined as those expressions which are connected by inequality signs like >, <, ≤, ≥ and ≠ and the value of the exponent of the variable is 1.

Here the given inequality is less than inequality.

1/7 m < -1/22

Dividing both sides by 1/7, we get,

m < -1/22 ÷ 1/7

m < -1/22 × 7/1

m < -7/22

Hence the graph of the solution will be of the form a straight line tending leftwards from -7/22.

Hence the graph of the given inequality is a straight line tending leftwards from -7/22.

Order is basically a series which contains a particular operation like addition, subtraction, multiplication,division and size of numbers may be from greater to least and least to greater numbers.

How to arrange a order?

We have been given a<b,c>b,d>c, and c<e<d and we have to order the letter from least to greatest.

a is greater than b, c is greater than b so a is also lesser than c. So,a<b<c will be order of a,b and c. Now we include d in the order. because c is greater than a and b but less than d so the order increases as under:

a<b<c<d. e lies between c and d so we will write e in between c and d in order. Final order will be a<b<c<e<d.

What is the function’s general shape?

Does the function face up or down?

What is the function’s y-intercept?

If one of the factors is (−6), how would you show that on the graph?

Answers

The function's general shape is a downward-opening parabola.

The function faces down The function's y-intercept is -144x - 6 is a factor

What is the function’s general shape?

From the question, we have the following parameters that can be used in our computation:

f(x)=-x^4+8x^3+8x^2-96x-144

Express properly

So, we have

f(x) = -x⁴ + 8x³ +8x² - 96x - 144

Next, we plot the graph (see attachment)

From the attached graph, we can see that the function opens down

This means that the general shape is a downward-opening parabola.

Does the function face up or down?

The function faces down (as shown on the graph)

What is the function’s y-intercept?

Here, we set x = 0

So, we have

f(0) = -(0)⁴ + 8(0)³ + 8(0)² - 96(0) - 144

Evaluate

f(0) = -144

So, the y-intercept is -144

How to show that one of the factors is (x - 6) on the graph?

We start by setting the factor to 0

So, we have

x - 6 = 0

Solve for x

x = 6

From the graph;

When x = 6, y = 0

This means that x - 6 is a factor

If I deposit $100,000 in a retirement account that gives 8 % paid annually, what will be balance after 25 years?

Answers

Answer:

$300,000

Step-by-step explanation:

To find 8% of 100,000 all you need to do is multiply 100,000 by .08.

100,000 (.08) = 8,000

The 8,000 accounts for one year, so now you have to multiply 8,000 by 25.

8,000 (25) = 200,000

Now add the initial amount to the additional 200,00 that will be paid to the retirement account.

100,000 + 200,000 = 300,000

The answer is $300,000.

Gunther  could dissolve the remaining 6g by heating the solution to dissolve the solute, and let the solution cool verifying nothing settled out.

Solubility of a substance refers to the amount of the substance that dissolves in a given amount of water. The most important factor that affects solubility is the temperature of the system. When the temperature is increased, more solute can be dissolved in the solvent.

Since Gunther needs to add 40 g of a solute to 100 g of water but only 34 grams were added before the solute settled out at room temperature. He could dissolve the remaining 6g by heating the solution to dissolve the solute, and let the solution cool verifying nothing settled out.
