The answer to your question is x = 8
A) To establish a sampling plan, follow these 5 steps:
1) Identify the sample population: which customers will you reach out to?
Those who purchased a new car during a specific year.
2) Determine the population size: how many customers will you contact?
From the 30,000 car buyers, select 1,000 customers to contact.
3) Select contact method: what is your means of contacting customers?
Since you have a list with names and addresses, mailing questionnaires is feasible.
4) Define the sampling frame: what is the timeline or deadline for contacting customers?
Send out questionnaires and allow two months for responses.
5) Decide on the analysis approach: is your research qualitative or quantitative?
You aim for quantitative research, so you will use probabilistic sampling.
B) The 32.5% probability relates only to those customers who experienced mechanical issues, specifically power door lock problems, and does not account for those without any problems or those reporting issues after the first 5,000 miles.
C) To estimate the probability of power door lock problems among all customers within the first 5,000 miles, consider the entire sample:
P = 13 / 1000 = 0.013
Therefore,
N = 0.013 × 30,000 = 390
Thus, the estimated number of new cars that had power door lock issues within 5,000 miles is 390.
0.96/8= $0.12 (per crayon)
0.12x30= $3.60
The diagrams for parts A and C are included here. For part B, we have circle O. We begin by drawing two radii OA and OC, connecting points A and C to create chord AC. The radius intersects chord AC at point B, bisecting AC into equal segments AB and BC. This gives us two triangles, ΔOBA and ΔOBC, where OA equals OC (since they're radii), OB equals OB (by the reflexive property), and AB is equal to BC (as stated in the question). By applying the SSS triangle congruence criterion, we conclude that ΔOBA is congruent to ΔOBC, allowing us to deduce that ∡OBA equals ∡OBC, both measuring 90°. Thus, OB is perpendicular to AC. Moving on to part D, we again work with circle O and draw the two radii OA and OC, joining points A and C to create chord AC. The radius intersects AC at point B, where AB is perpendicular to AC, meaning ∡B equals 90°. We then consider the right triangles ΔOBA and ΔOBC, and given OA equals OC (the radii), and OB equals OB (reflexive property), we conclude through the HL triangle congruence that ΔOBA is congruent to ΔOBC. Consequently, we find BA equal to BC, thus OB bisects AC.
