A study by Allstate Insurance Co. finds that 82% of teenagers have used cell phones while driving (the Wall Street Journal, May

5, 2010). Suppose a random sample of 100 teen drivers is taken. What is the probability that the sample proportion is within ± 0.02 of the population proportion?

The probability that the sample proportion is within ± 0.02 of the population proportion is 0.3328

<h3>How to determine the probability?</h3>

The given parameters are:

  • Sample size, n = 100
  • Population proportion, p = 82%

Start by calculating the mean:

\mu = np

\mu = 100 * 82\%

\mu = 82

Calculate the standard deviation:

\sigma = \sqrt{\mu(1 - p)

\sigma = \sqrt{82 * (1 - 82\%)

\sigma = 3.84

Within ± 0.02 of the population proportion are:

x_{min} = 82 * (1 - 0.02) = 80.38

x_{max} = 82 * (1 + 0.02) = 83.64

Calculate the z-scores at these points using:

z = \frac{x - \mu}{\sigma}

So, we have:

z_1 = \frac{80.36 - 82}{3.84} = -0.43

z_2 = \frac{83.64 - 82}{3.84} = 0.43

The probability is then represented as:

P(x ± 0.02) = P(-0.43 < z < 0.43)

Using the z table of probabilities, we have:

P(x ± 0.02) = 0.3328

Hence, the probability that the sample proportion is within ± 0.02 of the population proportion is 0.3328

A 1x1 square and an n-tiling is a group of n tiles placed so that every tile is contiguous along at least one side to another ti
bixtya [17]

Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:

The first picture below shows the missing image in the question.

There are 4 edges of each tile;

This clearly explains to us that the total number of edges present in the n tiles is 4n.

Now, if a tile "X" touches and comes in contact with another tile "Y", then edges touching each other are one edge of a tile X and one edge of a tile Y.

From the second diagram below, the edge, X_2, and Y_4 are touching each other.

Now, the total number of edges that touch some edges is always even.

We can now say that:

The edge length of filling = No. of edges that do not touch another file

= Total no. of edges  -  No. of edges that touch another edge.

However, the total number of edges is even.

The number of edges that touch another edge is also even.

Thus, the difference is also even and the number of edges that do not touch another is even.

So, the edge length of filling is always even.

Answer:

1. -19x

3. 23 -  8x

5. -18x + 2y

Step-by-step explanation:

first: 3x - x = 2x

2x - 22x = -20x

-20x + x = -19x

second one:

8 - (-15) = 23

12x - 20x = -8 x

23 - 8x

third:

-10x - 8x = -18x

3y - y = 2y

-18x + 2y
