Answer: The point estimate of the population proportion is . 485.​

The margin of error is 0.273.​

Step-by-step explanation:

Confidence interval for population proportion(p):

sample proportion ± Margin of error

Given:  Lower bound of confidence interval  = 0.212

Upper bound = 0.758

⇒sample proportion - Margin of error=0.212  (i)

sample proportion + Margin of error= 0.758  (ii)

Adding (i) and (ii) , we get

2(sample proportion) =0.970

⇒ sample proportion = 0.970÷2= 0.485

Since sample proportion is the point estimate of the population proportion.

So, the point estimate of the population proportion=  0.485

Now put sample proportion =0.485 in (ii), we get

0.485+ Margin of error= 0.758

⇒  Margin of error= 0.758 - 0.485 =0.273

i.e. The margin of error is 0.273.​

The sides of a parallelogram are 14ft and 16ft. One angle is 41° while another angle is 139°. Find the lengths of the diagonals
Semenov [28]

We will have the following:

First, we have that the problem can be seeing as follows:

Now, knowing this and the the properties of the diagonals we will have that [We use the law of cosines}:

First diagonal [AC} is given by:

\begin{gathered} AC=\sqrt{16^2+14^2-2cos(41)}\Rightarrow AC=10.67193085... \\  \\ \Rightarrow AC\approx10.7 \end{gathered}

So, one of the diagonals has an approximate length of 10.7 ft.

Second diagonal [BD] is given by:

\begin{gathered} BD=\sqrt{16^2+14^2-2(16)(14)cos(139)}\Rightarrow BD=28.10889347... \\  \\ \Rightarrow BD\approx28.1 \end{gathered}

So, the second diagonal has a length of approximately 28.1 ft.

<em>**Diagonals**</em>

\begin{gathered} AC\approx10.7ft \\  \\ BD\approx28.1ft \end{gathered}

The price of 1 lb of potatoes is $ 1.65. if all the potatoes sold today at the store bring in $ 1220, how many kilograms of pota
natali 33 [55]

1220/1.65 = 739.39 pounds of potatoes were sold

1 pound = 0.453592 kilograms

739.39 x 0.453592 = 335.38 kilograms

The admissions director from Big City University found that (107.8, 116.2) is a 95% confidence interval for the mean IQ score of
katen-ka-za [31]

Answer:  The explanation is correct.

Step-by-step explanation:

The interpretation of 95% confidence interval for population mean is that "A person can be 95% sure that the true population mean lies in it."

Given : The admissions director from Big City University found that (107.8, 116.2) is a 95% confidence interval for the mean IQ score of all freshmen.

Interpretation: The admissions director can be 95% sure that the true population mean IQ score of all freshmen lies in  (107.8, 116.2).

i.e. There is a 95% probability (chance) that the interval from 107.8 to 116.2 contains μ.

Hence, the  explanation is absolutely "correct" .

MANY PTS AND BRAINLY FAST
Troyanec [42]

Answer:

Option C

Step-by-step explanation:

we have

-6x^{2} -6x+12=0

step 1

Group terms that contain the same variable, and move the constant to the opposite side of the equation

-6x^{2} -6x=-12

step 2

Factor -6 leading coefficient'

-6(x^{2} +x)=-12

step 3

Complete the square

Remember to balance the equation by adding the same constants to each side

-6(x^{2} +x+0.25)=-12-1.5

-6(x^{2} +x+0.25)=-13.5

step 4

Rewrite as perfect squares

-6(x+0.5)^{2}=-13.5

simplify

(x+0.5)^{2}=2.25
