7.1.35-T Question Help You are the operations manager for an airline and you are considering a higher fare level for passengers in aisle seats. How many randomly selected air passengers must you survey? Assume that you want to be 95% confident that the sample percentage is within 3.5 percentage points of the true population percentage. Complete parts (a) and (b) below. a. Assume that nothing is known about the percentage of passengers who prefer aisle seats. (Round up to the nearest integer.)

You must survey 784 air passengers.

Step-by-step explanation:

In a sample with a number n of people surveyed with a probability of a success of $\pi$ , and a confidence level of $1-\alpha$ , we have the following confidence interval of proportions.

$\pi \pm z\sqrt{\frac{\pi(1-\pi)}{n}}$

In which

z is the zscore that has a pvalue of $1 - \frac{\alpha}{2}$ .

The margin of error is:

$M = z\sqrt{\frac{\pi(1-\pi)}{n}}$

95% confidence level

So $\alpha = 0.05$ , z is the value of Z that has a pvalue of $1 - \frac{0.05}{2} = 0.975$ , so Z = 1.96 .

Assume that nothing is known about the percentage of passengers who prefer aisle seats.

This means that $\pi = 0.5$ , which is when the largest sample size will be needed.

Within 3.5 percentage points of the true population percentage.

We have to find n for which M = 0.035. So

$M = z\sqrt{\frac{\pi(1-\pi)}{n}}$

$0.035 = 1.96\sqrt{\frac{0.5*0.5}{n}}$

$0.035\sqrt{n} = 1.96*0.5$

$\sqrt{n} = \frac{1.96*0.5}{0.035}$

$(\sqrt{n})^2 = (\frac{1.96*0.5}{0.035})^2$

n = 784

You must survey 784 air passengers.

3. parallelogram

step-by-step explanation:

we turn each of our sides into direction vectors

ab=b-a=(3 - 7, 1 - 0) = (-4, 1)

bc=c-b=(1,6)

cd=d-c=(4,-1)

da=a-d=(-1,-6)

we see how the opposite sides have negated direction vectors; this is characteristic of a parallelogram. we have congruent sides ab=cd and bc=da with unequal lengths because 1^2+6^2 is different from (-4)^2+1^2. so it's not a square or a rhombus.

we check the dot product of direction vectors of adjacent sides. we have

ab dot bc = -4(1) + 1(6) = 2

that's not zero so the sides are not perpendicular. we've ruled out rectangle.

the direction vectors indicate two pairs of congruent parallel sides, so we choose parallelogram over trapezoid.

mr. flanders’ class sold 47 doughnuts and mr. rodriquez’s class sold 38 cartons of milk

step-by-step explanation:

let x be the number of doughnuts sold by mr. flanders’ class and y be the number of cartons sold by mr. rodriquez’s class.

1. together, the classes sold 85 items, then

x+y=85.

2. both classes earn earned $104.49 for their school. if doughnuts were sold for $1.35 each, then x doughnuts costed $1.35x. if cartons of milk were sold for $1.08 each, then y cartons costed $1.08y. hence,

1.35x+1.08y=104.49.

3. solve the system of two equations:

$\left\{\begin{array}{l}x+y=85\\1.35x+1.08y=104.49\end{array}\right.\rightarrow \left\{\begin{array}{l}x=85-y\\1.35(85-y)+1.08y=104.49\end{array}\right.$

$114.75-1.35y+1.08y=104.49,\\ \\114.75-104.49=1.35y-1.08y,\\ \\10.26=0.27y,\\ \\y=38,\\ \\x=85-38=47.$
