Stainless steels can be susceptible to stress corrosion cracking under certain conditions. A materials engineer is interested in determining the proportion of steel alloy failures that are due to stress corrosion cracking. In the absence of preliminary data, what is the minimum sample size required to ensure a 90% confidence interval for p to within 0.02

Answers

Answer 1

Using the z-distribution, as we are working with a proportion, the minimum sample size required to ensure a 90% confidence interval for p to within 0.02 is of 1692.

What is a confidence interval of proportions?

A confidence interval of proportions is given by:

[tex]\pi \pm z\sqrt{\frac{\pi(1-\pi)}{n}}[/tex]

In which:

[tex]\pi[/tex] is the sample proportion.z is the critical value.n is the sample size.

The margin of error is of:

[tex]M = z\sqrt{\frac{\pi(1-\pi)}{n}}[/tex]

In this problem:

No prior estimate, hence the proportion is [tex]\pi = 0.5[/tex].Margin of error of M = 0.02.90% confidence level, hence[tex]\alpha = 0.9[/tex], z is the value of Z that has a p-value of [tex]\frac{1+0.9}{2} = 0.95[/tex], so [tex]z = 1.645[/tex].

Then, solving for n:

[tex]M = z\sqrt{\frac{\pi(1-\pi)}{n}}[/tex]

[tex]0.02 = 1.645\sqrt{\frac{0.5(0.5)}{n}}[/tex]

[tex]0.02\sqrt{n} = 1.645(0.5)[/tex]

[tex]\sqrt{n} = \frac{1.645(0.5)}{0.02}[/tex]

[tex](\sqrt{n})^2 = \left(\frac{1.645(0.5)}{0.02}\right)^2[/tex]

[tex]n = 1691.3[/tex]

Rounding up, a sample size of 1692 is needed.

Complete the following steps to receive full credit for this question:
• The inequality translated in numerical form
• The solution graphed on a number line
• The solution in interval notation

Answers

Answer:

Numerical Form: 0 < t ≤ 5

not doing number line

interval notation: (0,5]

Step-by-step explanation:

Let C(t) be the amount of U.S. cash per capita in circulation at time 1. The table, supplied by the Treasury Department, gives values of C(t) as of June 30 of the specificd year. Interpret and estimate the value of C'(1980).

Answers

Answer:

Following are the solution to this question:

Step-by-step explanation:

C'(t) was its time, in years, or t shift of cash per unit. That C'(1980) meaning, therefore, becomes the change of cashier's population to t = 1980.  

They could either use t = 1970 or t = 1990 to approximate the C'(1980) price. When using t = 1970:

[tex]C'(1980) = \frac{[C(1980) - C(1970)]}{[1980 - 1970]}\\\\[/tex]

              [tex]= \frac{(571 - 265)}{10}\\\\ = \$ \ 30.6 \\[/tex]

t = 1990:

[tex]C'(1980) = \frac{[C(1980) - C(1990)]}{[1980 - 1990]}[/tex]

              [tex]= \frac{(571 - 1063)}{ -10} \\\\= \$ \ 49.2[/tex]
