-3x + 2y = -3
4x - y = -1
2(4x - y = -1)
-3x +2y = -3
8x -2y = -2
-5x = -5
/-5
X = 1
Answer:
b. We are 95% confident that the proportion of coworkers who went on a vacation last year away from home for at least a week is between 50% and 66%.
Step-by-step explanation:
A confidence interval at the level of x% for a proportion being between a and b means that we are x% sure that the true proportion of the population is between a and b.
In this problem, we have that:
95% C.I is (0.5, 0.66)
Interpretation: 95% confident that the true proportion is between 0.5 and 0.66.
The correct answer is:
b. We are 95% confident that the proportion of coworkers who went on a vacation last year away from home for at least a week is between 50% and 66%.
Pick any value in the y column of the table. I'm going to pick 81. Divide the value you picked by the previous y value, which in my case would be 9
Dividing the values gives: 81/9 = 9
So the base is 9. We multiply each y value by 9 to get the next y value
Eg: to go from 1/81 to 1/9, we multiply by 9. Same for 1/9 to 1, and so on.
Answer: Choice B) 9
Note: This trick only works because x is increasing by 1 each time
