One hundred five of the 195 members surveyed at a local gym say they worked out more often when they were in their twenties than

they did when they were teenagers. Calculate the margin of error (ME), rounded to the nearest tenth of a percent. Is it reasonable that the federal health department claims the percentage for the entire country is 48%? Justify your answer.
Hint: ME equals plus or minus two times square root of start fraction p hat left parenthesis one minus p hat right parenthesis over N end fraction end square root, where p hat is the yes proportion in the sample and N is the sample size


No, it is not reasonable because the ME is 2.9% and the population proportion of 48% falls outside the sample interval of 53.8% ± 3.6%

Yes, it is reasonable because the ME is 7.1% and the population proportion of 54% falls within the sample interval of 48.0% ± 7.1%

Yes, it is reasonable because the ME is 7.1% and the population proportion of 48% falls within the sample interval of 53.8% ± 7.1%

No, it is not reasonable because the ME is 6.7% and the population proportion of 48% falls outside the sample interval of 53.8% ± 6.7%

Yes, it is reasonable, because the ME is 7.1% and 48% falls within the range of 53.8% to 7.1%.

Calculating the ME:

ME=\pm 2\sqrt{\frac{\hat{p}(1-\hat{p})}{N}}=\pm 2\sqrt{\frac{0.54(0.46)}{195}}
=\pm 2\sqrt{\frac{0.2484}{195}}=0.071=7.1

The sample proportion was 53.8%.  This gives us 
53.8% +/- 7.1%

sorry guys its not 4.9 i made mistake with 3.25 i was thinking that it was 3.50 any wwy

i have good method too

we can make 3.25 equal 13/4 and 1.40 equal 7/5 the multiply it

we will find 91/20 but we have problem its The 10 dont worry we can take the 10 from the both number and we will get 9.1/2 and We can devide easily now and the answer is 4.55

Find the missing sides from the right-angled triangles given below. Step by step
strojnjashka [21]

Answer:

BD = √13cm, AC = 10c,

Step-by-step explanation:

AB^2 = AD^2 + BD^2\\\\49 = 36 + BD^2\\\\BD = \sqrt{49 - 36} = \sqrt{13}cm\\\\AC^2 = AD^2 +DC^2\\

       =36 + 64\\=100

\\AC = \sqrt{100} = 10cm

The volume of cube x divided by the volume of cube y is 27. What is the side length of cube x divided by side length of cube y
Svetach [21]
If the volume of cube x divided by the volume of cube y is 27, then <span>he side length of cube x divided by side length of cube y would be 3. This is computed by solving the cube root of 27, since the side of the cube was multiplied thrice to get the volume so when geeting the side of the cube it is best to have the number be in cube root form.</span>
