Answer: $(0.0445,\ 0.0755)$

Step-by-step explanation:

The confidence interval for the population proportion is given by :-

$p\pm z_{\alpha/2}\sqrt{\dfrac{p(1-p)}{n}}$

Given : A Bernoulli random variable X has unknown success probability p.

Sample size : $n=100$

Unknown success probability : $p=0.06$

Significance level : $\alpha=1-0.99=0.01$

Critical value : $z_{\alpha/2}=2.576$

Now, the 99% confidence interval for true proportion will be :-

$0.06\pm(2.576)\sqrt{\dfrac{0.06(0.06)}{100}}\\\\\approx0.06\pm(0.0155)\\\\=(0.06-0.0155,\ 0.06+0.0155)\\\\=(0.0445,\ 0.0755)$

Hence, the 99% confidence interval for true proportion= $(0.0445,\ 0.0755)$

Select the correct answer.<br> What is the value of y in this triangle?

slamgirl [31]

Answer:

36°

Step-by-step explanation:

134° is the exterior angle of the triangle.

By the exterior angle theorm

134° = 98° + y

y = 134° - 98° = 36°

Answer:

See below

Step-by-step explanation:

The first two questions are slope = 0

a horizontal line has zero slope

slope = rise/run = 0 / run = 0

Greatest y value is + 4 from x = 3 to 4

the least y value is -3 fro x = -4 to -3

Answer:

x = 24.

r $\ne$ 0.

Step-by-step explanation:

2. The given equation is:

$\frac{1}{2} (x - 4) = \frac{1}{3} x + 2$

a) To eliminate the fractions multiply the equation throughout by the LCM of the denominators of the fraction. In this case, the LCM of (2, 3). The LCM is 6. So, multiply the entire equation by 6.

b) Half of the difference between an integer and 4 equals the sum of one - third of the integer and 2. Find the integer.

c) We have the equation:

$\frac{1}{2} (x - 4) = \frac{1}{3} x + 2$

Multiplying throughout by 6, we get:

$\frac{6}{2}(x - 4) = \frac{6}{3} x + 6(2)$

$\implies 3(x - 4) = 2x + 12$

$\implies 3x - 12 = 2x + 12$

$\implies x = 24$

Therefore, the solution of the equation is 24.

3. The given equation is: $ry + s = tx - m$

To solve for y:

We can rearrange the equation as:

$ry = tx - m - s$

$\implies y = \frac{tx - m - s}{r}$

or, $y = \frac{tx - (m + s)}{r}$

Note that we have to impose a condition on variable $r$ . It would be that $r$ can never be zero. i.e., $r \ne 0$ . Otherwise, the value of $y$ would be undefined.
