Answer:

520 out of 800 students ride the bus

Step-by-step explanation:

Given

$Proportion = 65\%$

$Students = 800$

Required

Determine the number of students $that\ ride\ the\ bus$

To do this, we simply multiply the proportion by the total number of students.

i.e.

$Bus = Proportion * Students$

$Bus = 65\% * 800$

Express the percentage as decimal

$Bus = 0.65* 800$

$Bus = 520$

<u>Supposing 60 out of 100 scores are passing scores</u>, the 95% confidence interval for the proportion of all scores that are passing is (0.5, 0.7).

The lower limit is 0.5.
The upper limit is 0.7.

In a sample with a number n of people surveyed with a probability of a success of $\pi$ , and a confidence level of $\alpha$ , we have the following confidence interval of proportions.
