Some biologists believe the evolution of handedness is linked to complex behaviors such as tool-use. Under this theory, handedness would be genetically passed on from parents to children. That is, left-handed parents would be more likely to have lefthanded children than right-handed parents. An alternate theory asserts that handedness should be random, with left- and right-handedness equally likely. In a recent study using a simple random sample of n  76 right-handed parents, 50 of the children born were right-handed. ( pˆ =0.658 .) Suppose handedness is a random occurrence with either hand equally likely to be dominant, implying that the probability of a right-handed offspring is p =0.50.

Required:
a. Show that it is reasonable to approximate the sampling distribution of p̂ using a normal distribution.
b. Assuming left- and right-handed children are equally likely from right-handed parents, what is the probability of observing a sample proportion of at least p̂ =0.658 ?

Answers

Answer 1

Answer:

a) Since both np >= 5 and n(1-p) >= 5,  it is reasonable to approximate the sampling distribution of p^‚ using a normal distribution.

b) 0.5 = 50% probability of observing a sample proportion of at 0.658.

Step-by-step explanation:

a. Show that it is reasonable to approximate the sampling distribution of p̂ using a normal distribution.

We need that:

np >= 5

n(1-p) >= 5

Sample of 76, 50 of the children were born were right-handed.

So [tex]n = 76, p = \frac{50}{76} = 0.658[/tex]

np = 76*0.658 >= 5

n(1-p) = 76*0.342 >= 5

Since both np >= 5 and n(1-p) >= 5,  it is reasonable to approximate the sampling distribution of p^‚ using a normal distribution.

b. Assuming left- and right-handed children are equally likely from right-handed parents, what is the probability of observing a sample proportion of at least p̂ =0.658 ?

This is the mean, so 50% below and 50% above.

0.5 = 50% probability of observing a sample proportion of at 0.658.

General Formulas and Concepts:

Order of Operations: BPEMDAS

Distance Formula: [tex]\displaystyle d = \sqrt{(x_2-x_1)^2+(y_2-y_1)^2}[/tex]

Determine whether the following statements are true and give an explanation or counterexample. If f is not one-to-one on the interval [a, b], then the are of the surface generated when the graph of f on [a, b] is revolved about the x-axis is not defined.

Answers

Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:

The missing equation is:

[tex]S = \int ^b_a 2 \pi f(y) \sqrt{1 + f' (y)^2 } \ dy[/tex]

Suppose f = nonnegative function whose first derivative is within (a,b) and it is continuous, Then the area of the surface generated is revolved about the x-axis:

The area of the surface revolution is:

[tex]S = \int ^b_a 2 \pi f(x) \sqrt{1 + f' (x)^2 } \ dx[/tex]

So; if  [tex]x = g(y)[/tex] for [tex]y \ \varepsilon \ [c,d][/tex]

Then; substituting a with c and b with d; f(x) also with g(y) and dx with dy;

Then;

[tex]S = \int ^d_c 2 \pi g(y) \sqrt{1 + g' (y)^2 } \ dy[/tex]

SInce;

[tex]g(y) \ne f(y)[/tex]; Then the statement is false.

Provided that the semicircle [tex]y = \sqrt{1-x^2}[/tex] isn't on [tex][-1,1][/tex] interval.

Then, the solid generated by the revolution about the x-axis is a sphere.

However, the surface is well defined and the statement is false.

A restaurant has 23 tables. Some of the tables seat 4 persons and the rest seat two persons. In all, 76 persons can be seated at once. How many tables of each kind are there?

Answers

Answer:

15 tables with 4 seats and 8 tables with 2 seats.

Step-by-step explanation:

x = 4 seated tables

y = 2 seated tables

x + y = 23

4x + 2y = 76

Multiply first equation by -2 to cancel y's:

-2x - 2y = -46

4x + 2y = 76

2x = 30

x = 30 / 2

x = 15

And we said 23 tables so:

23 - 15 = 8

x = 15

y = 8

c² = 121 * 4

c = √121*4

c = √484

Sixteen is divided by the sum of the number q and 1. The result is four. What is the number.

Answers

Answer:

The number is 3.

Step-by-step explanation:

Ok, so here we're solving for a variable. The equation would be:

16 ÷ (q + 1) = 4

We can rewrite this as:

4(q + 1) = 16

First, you need to isolate q + 1. To do that, you to the inverse of the operation. IN this case, division is the inverse of multiplication. So:

4(q + 1) = 16

÷4           ÷4

     q + 1 = 4

Alright, now we isolate q. The inverse of addition is subtraction, so we do this:

q + 1 = 4

  - 1   - 1

    q = 3

Now for our check:

16 ÷ (q + 1) = 4

16 ÷ (3 + 1) = 4

16 ÷ 4 = 4

4 = 4

q = 3

503 inches (rounded to the nearest whole number)

Step-by-step explanation:

First, we must calculate the wheel's circumference, or in other words, the distance around the wheel. We can do this by using the below equation:

[tex]C=\pi d[/tex] when [tex]d[/tex] is the diameter

Because we know that the wheel's diameter is 16 inches, we can plug it into the equation:

[tex]C=\pi (16)\\C=16\pi[/tex]

Now, because we know that the wheel makes 10 revolutions, we calculate the distance it travelled by multiplying the circumference by 10.

[tex]16\pi *10\\= 160\pi[/tex]

[tex]= 503[/tex] inches when rounded to a whole number

Therefore, the wheel travelled approximately 503 inches.
