Answer:

(0.3798, 0.4602)

Step-by-step explanation:

Let p be the true proportion of US adults who believe raising the minimum wage will help the economy. A point estimate for p is \hat{p}=0.42 and a good aproximation (because we have a large sample) for the standard deviation of \hat{p} is \sqrt{\hat{p}(1-\hat{p})/n}=\sqrt{0.42(0.58)/1000}=0.0156. Therefore, a 99% confidence interval for p is given by \hat{p}\pm z_{\alpha/2}\sqrt{\frac{\hat{p}(1-\hat{p})}{n}} where \alpha=0.01 and z_{\alpha/2} is the \alpha/2th quantile of the standard normal distribution, so we have, 0.42\pm z_{0.005}0.0156, i.e., 0.42\pm(-2.5758)(0.0156) or equivalently (0.3798, 0.4602).

Answer:

  • 40 sq. units

Step-by-step explanation:

<h3>Solution 1</h3>

The figure (kite) is symmetric and covers half of the area of rectangle with sides 8 units aby 10 units

<u>The area of the rectangle:</u>

  • A = 8*10 = 80 sq. units

<u>The area of the kite:</u>

  • A = 1/2*80 = 40 sq. units
<h3>Solution 2</h3>

Split the kite into two triangles and calculate their area and add up

<u>Triangle DCB has b = 8, h = 2 and has area:</u>

  • A = 1/2*8*2 = 8 sq. units

<u>Triangle DAB has b = 8, h = 8 and has area:</u>

  • A = 1/2*8*8 = 32 sq. units

<u>Total area:</u>

  • 8 + 32 = 40 sq. units
