Answer:

(0.4958, 0.7422)

Step-by-step explanation:

Let p be the true proportion of water specimens that contain detectable levels of lead. The point estimate for p is \hat{p}=26/42=0.6190. The estimated standard deviation is given by \sqrt{\hat{p}(1-\hat{p})/n}=\sqrt{(0.6190)(1-0.6190)/42}=0.0749. Because we have a large sample, the 90% confidence interval for p is given by 0.6190\pm z_{0.05}0.0749 where z_{0.05}=1.6448 is the value that satisfies that above this and under the standard normal density there is an area of 0.05. So, the confidence interval is 0.6190\pm (1.6448)(0.0749), i.e., (0.4958, 0.7422).

Answer:

2.25

Step-by-step explanation:

in order to find the scale factor from A to B you need to divide B by A. 13.5÷6=2.25. 11.25÷5=2.25 and 4.5÷2=2.25.

therefore the scale factor is 2.25 because when you multiply the sides from A by 2.25 you get the length of the side from B.

\frac{8 -  \sqrt{ - 36} }{2}  \\  =  \frac{8 -  \sqrt{ 2 \times \: 2 \times  3  \times  - 3} }{2}  \\  =  \frac{8 -2 \sqrt{ - 9}  }{2}  \\  =  \frac{2(4 -  \sqrt{ - 9} )}{2}  \\  = 4 -  \sqrt{ - 9}

Hope you could get an idea from here.
