Answer:

\hat p  \sim N (p , \sqrt{\frac{p(1-p)}{n}})

The mean is given by:

\mu_{\hat p} = 0.55

And the deviation:

\sigma_{\hat p} =\sqrt{\frac{0.55*(1-0.55)}{953}}= 0.0161

Step-by-step explanation:

For this case we assume that the true population proportion of Americans do not know that GOP stands for Grand Old Party is 0.55 and we select a random sample of n = 953 americans

For this case we assume that we satisfy the conditions to use the normal approximation for \hat p

1) np >10 , n(1-p)>10

2) Independence

3) Random sample

4) The sample size is less than 10% of the population size

We assume that all the conditions are satisfied and the distribution for \hat p would be:

\hat p  \sim N (p , \sqrt{\frac{p(1-p)}{n}})

The mean is given by:

\mu_{\hat p} = 0.55

And the deviation:

\sigma_{\hat p} =\sqrt{\frac{0.55*(1-0.55)}{953}}= 0.0161

Answer:

277cm²

Step-by-step explanation:

Base = 9x8=72

There are 2 triangles with a bottom edge of 9 and a slant height of 13:

1/2(9)(13)=58.5

There are 2 triangles with a bottom edge of 8 and a slant height of 11:

1/2(8)(11)=44

72+58.5+58.5+44+44=277cm²

Arturiano [62]
The interest would be $14.17 so the total in the account is $329.17.

you find this by using the formula:
I = P*R*T
I =300*.015*3
I = 14.17
