An environmental group is interested in what percentage of Americans consider climate change an immediate threat to humanity. From a representative list of 20677 American citizens, they randomly sampled 30; all responded to their questions. They will consider the sample proportion of respondents that agree climate change is an immediate threat to humanity. Previously, 35% of Americans considered climate change an immediate threat to humanity; assume this has not changed.
1. Is it appropriate to use normal distribution to describe the sampling distribution of sample proportion?
a. Yes, because 10.5 and 19.5 are greater than 10.
b. Yes, because 30 American citizens were sampled.
c. No, because this problem concerns the sample proportion instead of the population proportion.
d. No, because the sampling distribution is skewed.
2. Calculate the probability the proportion of the 30 Americans sampled that agree climate change is an immediate threat to humanity exceeds 35%

Answers

Answer 1

Answer:

(1) Yes, because 30 American citizens were sampled.

(2) The probability that the proportion of the 30 Americans sampled that agree climate change is an immediate threat to humanity exceeds 35% is 0.50.

Step-by-step explanation:

We are given that from a representative list of 20677 American citizens, they randomly sampled 30; all responded to their questions.

Previously, 35% of Americans considered climate change an immediate threat to humanity; assume this has not changed.

(1) Yes, it is appropriate to use a normal distribution to describe the sampling distribution of sample proportion because 30 American citizens were sampled.

(2) The z-score probability distribution for the sample proportion is given by;

                          Z = [tex]\frac{\hat p-p}{\sqrt{\frac{\hat p(1-\hat p)}{n} } }[/tex]  ~ N(0,1)

where, [tex]\hat p[/tex] = sample proportion of Americans who agree climate change is an immediate threat to humanity

p = population proportion of Americans who considered climate change is an immediate threat to humanity

n = sample of American citizens = 30

Now, the probability that the proportion of the 30 Americans sampled that agree climate change is an immediate threat to humanity exceeds 35% is given by = P([tex]\hat p[/tex] > 35%)

        P([tex]\hat p[/tex] > 35%) = P( [tex]\frac{\hat p-p}{\sqrt{\frac{\hat p(1-\hat p)}{n} } }[/tex] > [tex]\frac{0.35-0.35}{\sqrt{\frac{0.35(1-0.35)}{30} } }[/tex] ) = P(Z > 0) = 0.50

The above probability is calculated by looking at the value of x = 0 in the z table which has an area of 0.50.

Hence, the required probability is 0.50.

Answer 2

Using the normal distribution and the central limit theorem, it is found that:

1. a. Yes, because 10.5 and 19.5 are greater than 10.

2. There is a 0.5 = 50% probability the proportion of the 30 Americans sampled that agree climate change is an immediate threat to humanity exceeds 35%.

Normal Probability Distribution

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.By the Central Limit Theorem, for a proportion p in a sample of size n, the sampling distribution of sample proportion is approximately normal with mean [tex]\mu = p[/tex] and standard deviation [tex]s = \sqrt{\frac{p(1 - p)}{n}}[/tex], as long as [tex]np \geq 10[/tex] and [tex]n(1 - p) \geq 10[/tex].

In this problem:

A sample of 30 is taken, hence n = 30.35% of Americans considered climate change an immediate threat to humanity; assume this has not changed, hence p = 0.35.

Item 1:

We verify the condition, hence:

[tex]np = 30(0.35) = 10.5[/tex]

[tex]n(1 - p) = 30(0.65) = 19.5[/tex]

Hence option a is correct.

Item 2:

The mean and the standard error are given by:

[tex]\mu = p = 0.35[/tex]

[tex]s = \sqrt{\frac{p(1 - p)}{n}} = \sqrt{\frac{0.35(0.65)}{30}} = 0.087[/tex]

The probability is 1 subtracted by the p-value of  Z when X = 0.35, hence:

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

By the Central Limit Theorem

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

[tex]Z = \frac{0.35 - 0.35}{0.087}[/tex]

[tex]Z = 0[/tex]

[tex]Z = 0[/tex] has a p-value of 0.5.

1 - 0.5 = 0.5.

0.5 = 50% probability the proportion of the 30 Americans sampled that agree climate change is an immediate threat to humanity exceeds 35%.

In 1982 John Hinckley was on trial, accused of having attempted to kill the then US President Ronald Reagan. Hinckley was found not guilty by reason of insanity. The defense psychiatric reports found him to be insane while the prosecution reports declared him legally sane. In particular, the defense sought to establish that brain scan results like John Hinckley's appeared in a higher percentage of schizophrenics than of normal people his age.
During Hinckley's trial, an expert witness, Dr. Weinberger, told the court that when individuals suffering from schizophrenia were given computerized axial tomography (CAT) scans, the scans showed brain atrophy in 30% of cases compared with only 2% of scans done on normal people. Health records show that 1.5% of the people in the United States suffer from schizophrenia. Hinckleys CAT scan showed brain atrophy. Calculate the probability that Hinckley suffered from schizophrenia given his CAT scan showed brain atrophy.

Answers

Answer:

O.186 or 18.6%

Step-by-step explanation:

Let s = event of schizophrenia

B = brain atrophy

From our question we have:

P(s) = probability of those suffering from schizophrenia = 1.5% = 0.015

P(B|S) = probability of brain atrophy = 30% = 0.30

P(S') = 1 - 0.015 = 0.985

P(B|S') = 2% = 0.02

Probability Hinckley suffered from schizophrenia

= P(S|B) = P(B|S)P(S)/P(B|S)P(S)+P(B|S')P(S')

= (0.30x0.015)/(0.30)*(0.015)+(0.02)(0.985)

= 0.0045/0.0045+0.0197

= 0.0045/0.0242

= 0.185950

This is approximately 0.186 or 18.6%

How is multiplying complex numbers different
from adding or subtracting complex numbers?

Answers

Let P and Q be two complex numbers such that

P = a+bi

Q = c+di

Where a,b,c,d are real numbers and i = sqrt(-1).

This means i^2 = -1.

-------------------

Adding P and Q means

P+Q = (a+bi)+(c+di)

P+Q = a+bi + c+di

P+Q = (a+c) + (bi+di)

P+Q = (a+c) + (b+d)i

As you can see, we just add the corresponding components together.

-------------------

Subtraction is a similar story.

P-Q = (a+bi)-(c+di)

P-Q = a+bi - c-di

P-Q = (a-c) + (bi-di)

P-Q = (a-c) + (b-d)i

We subtract the corresponding components

-------------------

Multiplication is a bit more complicated.

We'll use the FOIL rule

P*Q = (a+bi)*(c+di)

P*Q = a*c + a*di + bi*c + bi*di

P*Q = a*c + ad*i + bc*i + bd*i^2

P*Q = a*c + ad*i + bc*i + bd*(-1)

P*Q = a*c + ad*i + bc*i - bd

P*Q = (ac - bd) + (ad*i + bc*i)

P*Q = (ac - bd) + (ad + bc)i

Unfortunately multiplication isn't as simple as addition or subtraction, but we can at least make a tidy formula for it. You could also use the box method to visually organize the terms into a table to help multiply out P and Q.

In how many ways can we write a number using the digits (0,2,3,5) and the number is greater than 100

Answers

This is a multiplicative principle's question. Let's think how we can solve that.

If we want numbers are greater than 1000, so we need numbers with 4 digit (for example: 1001, 2350 and so on).

Imagine that we need to complete four spaces: one thousands, hundreds, tens and ones. See below how to compelete each space:

One thousands: In this space, we can't use the number 0, because in this way, the number will have 3 digits and we want number with 4 digits (for example: 0235 is a 3 digits number). Therefore, we can use the numbers 2, 3 and 5 to complete this space. So, there are 3 possibilities.

Hundreds: Now, we can use the number 0 and the number won't have 3 digits (for example: 2035 is a 4 digits number). Therefore, we can use the numbers 0, 2, 3 and 5 to complete this space. So, there are 4 possibililities.

Tens: Ih this case, it happens the same thing that happen in the case of hundreds. Therefore, there are 4 possibilites.

Ones: Finally, in this case it also happens the same thing that happen in the case os hundreds. So, there are 4 possibilites.

For multiplicative principle, we just need multiply these numbers of possibilities to find the result of this question:

[tex]3\times4\times4\times4=192[/tex]

Therefore, we can write 192 numbers using the digits (0, 2, 3 and 5) and all these numbers are greater than 1000.
