The total carbon dioxide that the country would emit over the course of the 6 year period is 661,505 kilotons.

<h3>What is the total carbon dioxide that would be emitted?</h3>

The formula that can be used to determine the emission each year is:

Emission in the first year x(1 - rate of decrease)^number of years

Emission in the first year = 120,000

Emission in the second year = 120,000 x (1 - 0.034)^1 = 115,920

Emission in the third year = 120,000 x (1 - 0.034)^2 = 111,978.72

Emission in the fourth year = 120,000 x (1 - 0.034)^3 = 108,171.44

Emission in the fifth year = 120,000 x (1 - 0.034)^4 = 104,493.61

Emission in the sixth year = 120,000 x (1 - 0.034)^5 = 100,940.83

Sum of emissions from the first year to the sixth year = 661,505

This illustrates the concept of exponential decrease.

poizon [28]

Answer:

B. <em>There is a 90​% chance that the true value of the population proportion will fall between the lower bound and the upper bound. </em>

Step-by-step explanation:

A. <em>One has 90​% confidence that the sample proportion is equal to the population proportion. </em>

Confidence interval gives an interval estimate, not an equality

B. <em>There is a 90​% chance that the true value of the population proportion will fall between the lower bound and the upper bound. </em>

<em>Ture. </em>

<em>C.</em><em> One has 90​% confidence that the interval from the lower bound to the upper bound actually does contain the true value of the population proportion. </em>

Also true but <em>One has 90​% confidence is not good interpretation. </em>

<em>D</em><em>. 90​% of sample proportions will fall between the lower bound and the upper bound.</em>

<em>Lower bound and upper bound is given to estimate population proportion. </em>
