Using the z-distribution, it is found that the lower bound of the 99% confidence interval is given by:

d. 68.39%.

<h3>What is a confidence interval of proportions?</h3>

A confidence interval of proportions is given by:

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

In which:

  • \pi is the sample proportion.
  • z is the critical value.
  • n is the sample size.

In this problem, we have a 99% confidence level, hence\alpha = 0.99, z is the value of Z that has a p-value of \frac{1+0.99}{2} = 0.995, so the critical value is z = 2.575.

The sample size and estimate are given by:

n = 2002, \pi = 0.71

Hence, the lower bound is given by:

\pi - z\sqrt{\frac{\pi(1-\pi)}{n}} = 0.71 - 2.575\sqrt{\frac{0.71(0.29)}{2002}} = 0.6839

Hence the lower bound is of 68.39%, which means that option D is correct.

Apply the distributive property to factor out the greatest common factor. 35+50=35+50=?
a_sh-v [17]

Answer with explanation:

The given mathematical expression to solve : 35+50

The prime factorization of each term can be written as follows :-

35=5\times7

50=5\times5\times2

We can see that the greatest common factor of both the terms = 5

So we rewrite the given expression as :-

5\times7+5\times10

By using distributive property :-

ab+ac=a(b+c) , we have

=5(7+10)=5(17)=85
