The National Health Survey uses household interviews to describe the health-related habits of U. S. adults. From these interviews they estimate population parameters associated with behaviors such as alcohol consumption, cigarette smoking, and hours of sleep for all U. S. adults. In the 2005-2007 report, they estimated that 30% of all current smokers started smoking before the age of 16. We randomly select a sample of 100 smokers and calculate the proportion who started smoking before the age of 16. Required:
a. Based on your simulation, what is the average amount of error you expect to see in the sample proportions in this situation?
b. What is the margin of error based on 2 standard deviations?
c. Suppose we select a random sample of 100 smokers. We find that 20 started smoking before the age of 16 (20 out of 100 is 20%). Would a sample proportion of 20% be highly unlikely if the population proportion is 30%? How do you know?

For this option, you will work individually. the pythagorean theorem can be used in many real-world scenarios. part 1 write your own real-world scenario where the pythagorean theorem can be applied to find a missing piece. you may choose to write a problem that is two- or three-dimensional in nature. be sure that you will be able to draw a diagram of your scenario. write out your problem and submit it for part 1. be sure to end your scenario with a question. part 2 draw a diagram of the scenario you created in part 1. you may draw by hand and scan and upload your drawing or create a computer-generated drawing for submission. be sure to label all parts and dimensions of the drawing. part 3 solve the question that you posed in part 1. show all of your steps in answering the question. for this option, you will need to submit all three parts for full credit—your real-world problem and question, the diagram that you created, and your work solving the problem, showing all steps. * note that your instructor is looking for your own original idea. while it is acceptable to use the internet for research and inspiration, academic integrity policies apply.

Abag contains 3 red marbles, 2 blue marbles, and 2 green marbles. one marble is picked, then another marble. assume that the selections are made with replacement. a) find the probability of picking two red marbles with replacement. b) find the probability of picking a red marble and a blue marble. assume the selections are made without replacement. c) find the probability of picking two red marbles without replacement. d) find the probability of picking a red marble and a blue marble without replacement.

Monitors manufactured by tsi electronics have life spans that have a normal distribution with a standard deviation of 1800 hours and a mean life span of 20,000 hours. if a monitor is selected at random, find the probability that the life span of the monitor will be more than 17,659 hours. round your answer to four decimal places.
