According to a 2014 Pew Research poll, 58% of Americans believe in Hell. Suppose a random sample of 100 Americans is obtained and the number of Americans who believe in Hell is recorded. Can this binomial experiment be approximated using a normal distribution? Be sure to demonstrate your conclusion numerically.

Answers

Answer 1

Testing the conditions, we get that [tex]np = 58 \geq 10[/tex] and [tex]n(1 - p) = 42 \geq 10[/tex], thus, this binomial experiment can be approximated using a normal distribution.

For each person sampled, there are only two possible outcomes. Either they believe in Hell, or they do not. The probability of a person believing in hell is independent of any other person, which means that the binomial distribution is used to solve this question.

Binomial distribution:

Probability of x successes on n trials, with p probability.

If [tex]np \geq 10[/tex] and [tex]n(1 - p) \geq 10[/tex], it can be approximated to the normal distribution.

In this problem:

Sample of size 100, thus [tex]n = 100[/tex].58% believe in Hell, thus [tex]p = 0.58[/tex].

Then

[tex]np = 100(0.58) = 58 \geq 10[/tex]

[tex]n(1 - p) = 100(0.42) = 42 \geq 10[/tex]

[tex]np = 58 \geq 10[/tex] and [tex]n(1 - p) = 42 \geq 10[/tex], thus, this binomial experiment can be approximated using a normal distribution.

Answer:

What makes a number friendly?

In number theory, friendly numbers are two or more natural numbers with a common abundancy index, the ratio between the sum of divisors of a number and the number itself. Two numbers with the same "abundancy" form a friendly pair; n numbers with the same "abundancy" form a friendly n-tuple.

(a + 2)/3 = y/3

Answers

Assuming that a + 2 = y, the property that was applied to arrived at (a + 2)/3 = y/3 is the: division property of equality.

Recall:

What is done to both sides of an equation will determine what property of equality was applied to the equation.

Thus, given the equation:

a + 2 = y

The following was obtained:

(a + 2)/3 = y/3

Observing the equation stated above, we will see that both sides of the equation was divided by three. This makes both sides equal.

Therefore, assuming that a + 2 = y, the property that was applied to arrived at (a + 2)/3 = y/3 is the: division property of equality.

253 19/26 rounded to the nearest ten

Answers

Answer:

250

Step-by-step explanation:

As a decimal 253 and 19/23 can be written as 253.73

If we think about 253.73 being closer to 250 or 260, we can see that it is closer to 250, so that is the nearest ten we will round to.

Even if it is too difficult to convert to a decimal, if we round 19/23 to 23/23, our number becomes 254. The nearest ten is still 250.

Graphing Asymptotes for Rational Functions

On the graph on the right, draw the Vertical Asymptote and write the equation for the Vertical Asymptote underneath.

Answers

Answer:

Horizontal Asymptote:    y=2

Vertical Asymptote: x=3

Step-by-step explanation:

One way: Look at graph

Look at for a horizontal or vertical line that both lines don't touch.

Second Way:

When you look for vertical asymptotes, you set the denominator equal to zero and solve.

For example, the second question has a denominator of x-3.

x-3=0

x=3 (This is the vertical asymptote)

When you look for horizontal asymptote, you do long division.

For example, the first question [tex]f(x)=\frac{2x}{x-3}[/tex]

The answer will be 2. 2 is the quotient. You only want quotient not remainder.

A person's blood glucose level and diabetes are closely related. Let x be a random variable measured in milligrams of glucose per deciliter (1/10 of a liter) of blood. Suppose that after a 12-hour fast, the random variable x will have a distribution that is approximately normal with mean = 87 and standard deviation = 25. Note: After 50 years of age, both the mean and standard deviation tend to increase. For an adult (under 50) after a 12-hour fast, find the following probabilities. (Round your answers to four decimal places.)
(a) x is more than 60



(b) x is less than 110


(c) x is between 60 and 110


(d) x is greater than 125 (borderline diabetes starts at 125)

Answers

Using the normal distribution, it is found that:

a) 0.8599 = 85.99% probability that x is more than 60.

b) 0.1788 = 17.88% probability that x is less than 110.

c) 0.6811 = 68.11% probability that x is between 60 and 110.

d) 0.0643 = 6.43% probability that x is greater than 125.

In a normal distribution 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]

It 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, which is the percentile of X.

In this problem:

The mean is of 87, thus [tex]\mu = 87[/tex].The standard deviation is of 25, thus [tex]\sigma = 25[/tex].

Item a:

This probability is 1 subtracted by the p-value of Z when X = 60, thus:

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

[tex]Z = \frac{60 - 87}{25}[/tex]

[tex]Z = -1.08[/tex]

[tex]Z = -1.08[/tex] has a p-value of 0.1401.

1 - 0.1401 = 0.8599

0.8599 = 85.99% probability that x is more than 60.

Item b:

This probability is the p-value of Z when X = 110, thus:

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

[tex]Z = \frac{110 - 87}{25}[/tex]

[tex]Z = 0.92[/tex]

[tex]Z = 0.92[/tex] has a p-value of 0.8212.

1 - 0.8212 = 0.1788.

0.1788 = 17.88% probability that x is less than 110.

Item c:

This probability is the p-value of Z when X = 110 subtracted by the p-value of Z when X = 60.

From the previous two items, 0.8212 - 0.1401 = 0.6811.

0.6811 = 68.11% probability that x is between 60 and 110.

Item d:

This probability is 1 subtracted by the p-value of Z when X = 125, thus:

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

[tex]Z = \frac{125 - 87}{25}[/tex]

[tex]Z = 1.52[/tex]

[tex]Z = 1.52[/tex] has a p-value of 0.9357.

1 - 0.9357 = 0.0643.

0.0643 = 6.43% probability that x is greater than 125.
