Part A)

Focus on the first column where it says "test finds student lying" since it asks "what percentage..were found to be lying". We can ignore the second column completely.

We have 282 people found to be lying based on the test (bottom of the first column). Of this total, 200 have not cheated meaning that the student isn't lying. This is based on the overall premise given at the top that states "All of them denied having cheated"

Simply divide the two values: 200/282 = 0.70921985815602 which rounds to roughly 0.7092 if you round to four decimal places

Now move the decimal over 2 spots to the right to convert to a percentage
0.7092 ---> 70.92%

Answer: 70.92%
==============================================================
Part B)

We'll use the result from part A. Subtract it from 100%

100% - 70.92% = (100 - 70.92)% = 29.08%

Answer: 29.08%

Note: another way to get this answer is to divide the values 82 over 282 to get 82/282 = 0.29078014184398 and we get the same answer roughly (after rounding)
==============================================================
Part C)

Now we focus on the second column only. We have 1718 people total and of this total, 12 have cheated. Since they initially deny cheating but they really did cheat, this is a lie they tell. 

So 12/1718 = 0.0069848661234 which rounds to 0.0070 and that converts to 0.7%

Note: this isn't 7% or 70%, its point 7 percent

Answer: 0.7%

elect the proper interpretation of a confidence interval for a mean at a confidence level of C % . a range of values produced by
Gnesinka [82]

Answer:

a range of values such that the probability is C % that a rndomly selected data value is in that range

Step-by-step explanation:

complete question is:

Select the proper interpretation of a confidence interval for a mean at a confidence level of C % .

a range of values produced by a method such that C % of confidence intervals produced the same way contain the sample mean

a range of values such that the probability is C % that a randomly selected data value is in that range

a range of values that contains C % of the sample data in a very large number of samples of the same size

a range of values constructed using a procedure that will develop a range that contains the population mean C % of the time

a range of values such that the probability is C % that the population mean is in that range

Answer:

d. 27 cubic feet

Step-by-step explanation:

volume of cube = s^3 = B * s

volume of pyramid = (1/3) * B * h

The volume of a pyramid is 1/3 of the area of the base multiplied by the height. The volume of a cube is the area of the base multiplied by the height. Since the volume of a pyramid has the fraction 1/3 and the volume of the cube does not, then the volume of a cube is 3 times greater than the volume of a pyramid that fits inside and has the same base area.

volume of pyramid = 9 cu ft

volume of cube = 3 * 9 cu ft = 27 cu ft

Answer: d. 27 cubic feet

(-3/2)x - 9 = - 27 solve for x
aleksklad [387]

Answer:

x = 12

Step-by-step explanation:

Solve for x:

(-3 x)/2 - 9 = -27

Put each term in (-3 x)/2 - 9 over the common denominator 2: (-3 x)/2 - 9 = (-18)/2 - (3 x)/2:

(-18)/2 - (3 x)/2 = -27

(-18)/2 - (3 x)/2 = (-3 x - 18)/2:

(-3 x - 18)/2 = -27

Multiply both sides of (-3 x - 18)/2 = -27 by 2:

(2 (-3 x - 18))/2 = -27×2

(2 (-3 x - 18))/2 = 2/2×(-3 x - 18) = -3 x - 18:

-3 x - 18 = -27×2

2 (-27) = -54:

-3 x - 18 = -54

Add 18 to both sides:

(18 - 18) - 3 x = 18 - 54

18 - 18 = 0:

-3 x = 18 - 54

18 - 54 = -36:

-3 x = -36

Divide both sides of -3 x = -36 by -3:

(-3 x)/(-3) = (-36)/(-3)

(-3)/(-3) = 1:

x = (-36)/(-3)

The gcd of -36 and -3 is -3, so (-36)/(-3) = (-3×12)/(-3×1) = (-3)/(-3)×12 = 12:

Answer:  x = 12
