The margin of error is ±2%

<h3>What is Margin error?</h3>

A margin of error is a statistical measurement that accounts for the difference between actual and projected results in a random survey sample.

Let x be margin of error and y be the percentages of the population.  

So,

y-x =33%

y +x = 37%

Solving above equations

2y= 70

y= 35%

and x= 2%

Hence, the margin of error is ±2%.

Classify the triangle with angles with measures 20°, 133°, and 27° as acute, right, or obtuse. Please help will give 24 pts
ololo11 [35]
Acute is any angle that measures less than 90 degrees
so 20 degrees and 27 degrees would be acute
also any angle that measures more than 90 degrees is obtuse.
so 133 degrees is obtuse.
also just so you know right angles measure exactly 90 degrees.

In a hospital, 30% of the beds are vacant. There are 210 patients in beds at the hospital currently. How many beds are there at
ANTONII [103]

By using the concept and properties of percentages, we conclude that the hospital has a total of 300 beds.

<h3>How many beds are available in a hospital?</h3>

In accordance with the statement, there are 210 patients in the beds of a hospital and 30 % of the beds are available. We must take advantage of the concept of percentage to calculate the total number of beds. 210 patients occupy 70 % of the beds.

Then, the total number of beds at the hospital is determined by dividing the number of beds with patients and its respective percentage:

n = 210 / 70 %

n = 210 / (70 / 100)

n = (210 · 100) / 70

n = 300

A certain railway company claims that its trains run late 5 minutes on the average. The actual times (minutes) that 10 randomly
iragen [17]

Answer:

Option C)  We would reject the claim that the trains run late an average of 5 minutes and conclude that they run late an average of more than 5 minutes since the 99% confidence interval exceeds 5.

Step-by-step explanation:

We are given the following in the question:  

Population mean, μ = 5 minutes

Sample mean, \bar{x} = 9.130 minutes

Sample size, n = 10

Alpha, α = 0.01

Sample standard deviation, s = 1.4 minutes

First, we design the null and the alternate hypothesis

H_{0}: \mu = 5\text{ minutes}\\H_A: \mu \neq 5\text{ minutes}

We have to construct 99% confidence interval.

99% Confidence interval:  

\bar{x} \pm t_{critical}\displaystyle\frac{s}{\sqrt{n}}  

Putting the values, we get,  

t_{critical}\text{ at degree of freedom 9 and}~\alpha_{0.01} = \pm 3.249  

9.130 \pm 3.249(\dfrac{1.4}{\sqrt{10}} ) = 9.130 \pm 1.4383 = (7.6917,10.5683)

99% Confidence interval:  (7.6917,10.5683)

Since the population mean does not lie in he calculated confidence interval, thus, we fail to accept the null hypothesis and accept the alternate hypothesis.

Option C) We would reject the claim that the trains run late an average of 5 minutes and conclude that they run late an average of more than 5 minutes since the 99% confidence interval exceeds 5.
