The Fox TV network is considering replacing one of its prime-time crime investigation shows with a new family-oriented comedy sh

ow. Before a final decision is made, network executives commission a sample of 400 viewers. After viewing the comedy, 250 indicated they would watch the new show and suggested it replace the crime investigation show.

Answer:

a) The population proportion is 0.625

b) The confidence interval is (0.578 , 0.672)

Step-by-step explanation:

* Lets explain how to solve the problem

- The Fox TV network is considering replacing one of its prime-time

  crime investigation shows with a new family-oriented comedy show

- There are 400 viewers

∴ The sample size is 400

- 250 of them indicated they would watch the new show and

  suggested it replace the crime investigation show

∴ The number of success is 250

∵ The population proportion P' = number of success/sample size

∴ P' = 250/400 = 0.625

a) The population proportion is 0.625

* Lets solve part b

- Develop a 95 percent confidence interval for the population

  proportion

∵ The confidence interval (CI) = P'(+/-)z*(\sqrt{\frac{P'(1-P')}{n}},

  where P' is the sample proportion, n is the sample size, and z*

  is the value from the standard normal distribution for the desired

  confidence level

∵ 95% z is 1.96

∴ z* = 1.96

∵ P' = 0.625

∵ n = 400

∵ \sqrt{\frac{P'(1-P')}{n}}=\sqrt{\frac{0.625(1-0.625)}{400}}=0.0242

∴ CI = 0.625 ± (1.96)(0.0242)

∴ CI = (0.625 - 0.047 , 0.625 + 0.047)

∴ CI = (0.578 , 0.672)

b) The confidence interval is (0.578 , 0.672)

The answer is 92,776 because 10 times as much as 70 is 700 which gives the answer for the hundreds position.

Answer:

A = 23.6 units^2

Step-by-step explanation:

Let the base be 8 (as shown).

Find the height of the triangle:   Find the supplement of the 100 degree angle; it is (180 - 100), or 80 degrees.  The side "opposite" this 80-degree angle is the height of the triangle:

   

                               height      

sin 80 degrees = ---------------

                                    6

and so the height of the triangle is h = 6 sin 80 degrees, or 5.91 units.

The area of the triangle is found using A = (1/2)(base)(height), which here amounts to:

A = (1/2)(8 units)(5.91 units), or

                                                       A = 23.64 units^2, or A = 23.6 units^2
