Answer:

let the first term of an A.P. is 'a' and common difference 'd'

∴ 8th term = sum of the first 8 terms

a8 = S

a + 7d = 8/2(2a + (8 - 1)d)

a + 7d = 8/2(2a + 7d)

2a + 14d = 16a + 56d

16a + 56d - (2a + 14d) = 0

14a + 52d = 0

divide eq. by 14 we get  ,

a + 3d = 0

and a + 3d = a4  = 0

A researcher surveyed 150 high school students and found that 68% played a musical insturment. What would be a reasonable range
maria [59]

Answer:

The reasonable range for the population mean is (61%, 75%).

Step-by-step explanation:

The interval estimate of a population parameter is an interval of values that consist of the values within which the true value of the parameter lies with a certain probability.

The mean of the sampling distribution of sample proportion is, \hat p.

One of the best interval estimate of population proportion is the 95% confidence interval for proportion,

CI=\hat p \pm z_{\alpha/2}\sqrt{\frac{\hat p(1-\hat p)}{n}}

Given:

n = 150

\hat p = 0.68

The critical value of <em>z</em> for 95% confidence level is:

z_{\alpha/2}=z_{0.05/2}=z_{0.025}=1.96

Compute the 95% confidence interval for proportion as follows:

CI=\hat p \pm z_{\alpha/2}\sqrt{\frac{\hat p(1-\hat p)}{n}}

     =0.68\pm1.96\sqrt{\frac{0.68(1-0.68)}{150}}\\\\=0.68\pm 0.0747\\\\=(0.6053, 0.7547)\\\\\approx (0.61, 0.75)

Thus, the reasonable range for the population mean is (61%, 75%).
