Given:
p = 7.6% = 0.076, the percentage of people who stay overnight at the hospital.
E = 1.5% = 0.015, margin of error
95% confidence interval.

The standard error is 
Es = \sqrt{ \frac{p(1-p)}{n} }
where 
n =  the sample size.

The margin of error is
E=z^{*}E_{s}
where
z* = 1.96 at the 95% confidence level.

Because the margin of error is given, there is no need to calculate it.
The 95% confidence interval is
p +/- E = 0.076 +/- 0.015 = (0.061, 0.091) = (6.1%, 9.1%)

Answer: 
The 95% confidence interval is between 6.1% and 9.1%.

The student council sold jars of mixed nuts at their bazaar they were given 40 empty jars. They paid $19.60 for the nuts and $11
Alex Ar [27]

Answer:

\$1.75

Step-by-step explanation:

Total amount paid for the nuts is $19.60

Total amount paid for the ribbons is $11.20

Profit made on each jar is 98¢= $0.98

Cost price of the nuts and ribbon for the 40 jars is 19.6+11.2=\$30.8

Cost price for nuts and ribbonn for one jar = \dfrac{30.8}{40}=\$0.77

Selling price is the sum of the cost price and profit.

Selling price for one jar = 0.77+0.98=\$1.75

They charged \$1.75 for each jar.
