A simple random sample of 85 is drawn from a normally distributed population, and the mean is found to be 146, with a standard d

eviation of 34. Which of the following values is outside the 99% confidence interval for the population mean? Use the table below to help you answer the question.
Confidence Level
90%
95%
99%

In a simple random sample of 14001400 young​ people, 9090​% had earned a high school diploma. Complete parts a through d below.
ratelena [41]

Answer:

(a) The standard error is 0.0080.

(b) The margin of error is 1.6%.

(c) The 95% confidence interval for the percentage of all young people who earned a high school diploma is (88.4%, 91.6%).

(d) The percentage of young people who earn high school diplomas has ​increased.

Step-by-step explanation:

Let <em>p</em> = proportion of young people who had earned a high school diploma.

A sample of <em>n</em> = 1400 young people are selected.

The sample proportion of young people who had earned a high school diploma is:

\hat p=0.90

(a)

The standard error for the estimate of the percentage of all young people who earned a high school​ diploma is given by:

SE_{\hat p}=\sqrt{\frac{\hat p(1-\hat p)}{n}}

Compute the standard error value as follows:

SE_{\hat p}=\sqrt{\frac{\hat p(1-\hat p)}{n}}

       =\sqrt{\frac{0.90(1-0.90)}{1400}}\\

       =0.008

Thus, the standard error for the estimate of the percentage of all young people who earned a high school​ diploma is 0.0080.

(b)

The margin of error for (1 - <em>α</em>)% confidence interval for population proportion is:

MOE=z_{\alpha/2}\times SE_{\hat p}

Compute the critical value of <em>z</em> for 95% confidence level as follows:

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

Compute the margin of error as follows:

MOE=z_{\alpha/2}\times SE_{\hat p}

          =1.96\times 0.0080\\=0.01568\\\approx1.6\%

Thus, the margin of error is 1.6%.

(c)

Compute the 95% confidence interval for population proportion as follows:

CI=\hat p\pm MOE\\=0.90\pm 0.016\\=(0.884, 0.916)\\\approx (88.4\%,\ 91.6\%)

Thus, the 95% confidence interval for the percentage of all young people who earned a high school diploma is (88.4%, 91.6%).

(d)

To test whether the percentage of young people who earn high school diplomas has​ increased, the hypothesis is defined as:

<em>H₀</em>: The percentage of young people who earn high school diplomas has not​ increased, i.e. <em>p</em> = 0.80.

<em>Hₐ</em>: The percentage of young people who earn high school diplomas has not​ increased, i.e. <em>p</em> > 0.80.

Decision rule:

If the 95% confidence interval for proportions consists the null value, i.e. 0.80, then the null hypothesis will not be rejected and vice-versa.

The 95% confidence interval for the percentage of all young people who earned a high school diploma is (88.4%, 91.6%).

The confidence interval does not consist the null value of <em>p</em>, i.e. 0.80.

Thus, the null hypothesis is rejected.

Hence, it can be concluded that the percentage of young people who earn high school diplomas has ​increased.

Find the lateral area of the pyramid to the nearest whole number.
son4ous [18]

Answer:

The correct answer is first option.  204 m²

Step-by-step explanation:

Formula:-

Lateral surface area of square pyramid = 4 * area  of triangle

<u>To find the slant height of triangle(l)</u>

l = √(6² + 6²) = 6√2

To find the area of triangle

Area = bh/2

b = 12 m

h =  6√2

Area = (12 * 6√2)/2 = 36√2

<u>To find the lateral surface area of Prism</u>

Lateral surface area of square pyramid = 4 * area  of triangle

= 36√2 * 4 = 203.64 ≈ 204 m²

First answer is the correct option
