Answer:

The 95% margin of error for this estimate is 0.0274 = 2.74 percentage points.

Step-by-step explanation:

In a sample with a number n of people surveyed with a probability of a success of \pi, and a confidence level of 1-\alpha, we have the following confidence interval of proportions.

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

In which

z is the zscore that has a pvalue of 1 - \frac{\alpha}{2}.

The margin of error is:

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

95% confidence level

So \alpha = 0.05, z is the value of Z that has a pvalue of 1 - \frac{0.05}{2} = 0.975, so Z = 1.96.

72% of Americans said that they had at least one credit card

This means that p = 0.72

Give the 95% margin of error for this estimate.

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

M = 1.96\sqrt{\frac{0.72*0.28)}{1030}} = 0.0274

The 95% margin of error for this estimate is 0.0274 = 2.74 percentage points.

jeka94

Answer: 3253

Step-by-step explanation:

Given : A test requires that you answer either part A or part B.

Part A consists of 7 true-false questions.

i.e.  there are 2 choices to answer each question.

Now, the number of ways to answer Part A : 2^7=128    (1)

Part B consists of 5 multiple-choice questions with one correct answer out of five.

i.e.  there are 5 choices to answer each question.

Now, the number of ways to answer Part B : 5^5=3125                           (2)

Now, the number of  different ways to completed answer sheets are possible=  128+3125=3253          [Add (1) and (2) ]
