Answer:

The 90% confidence interval is between a lower limit of 0.7306 and an upper limit of 0.7754.

Step-by-step explanation:

Confidence interval for a proportion is given as p +/- margin of error (E)

p is sample proportion = 753/1000 = 0.753

n is sample size = 1000

confidence level = 90%

critical value corresponding to 90% confidence level and infinity degree of freedom is 1.645

E = critical value×sqrt[p(1-p) ÷ n] = 1.645×sqrt[0.753(1-0.753) ÷ 1000] = 1.645×sqrt[1.85991×10^-4] = 1.645×0.0136 = 0.0224

Lower limit of proportion = p - E = 0.753 - 0.0224 = 0.7306

Upper limit of proportion = p + E = 0.753 + 0.0224 = 0.7754

90% confidence interval is (0.7306, 0.7754)

bob travels from inglewood to Anytown; a distance of 20km. he walks 800m and cycles the rest of the way. What percentage of the
Semmy [17]
We can convert 20km to 20,000m. Then, we can subtract 800m (walking distance) from 20,000m which would result in 19,200m. Then we can put 19,200m and 20,000m as a fraction (19200/20000). Before we can multiply it by 100 to make it in the percentage form, we can get rid of 2 zeroes for both number making it 192/200 and then further simplifying it to 24/25 by dividing both numbers by 8. Finally to get the percentage we can multiply 24 and 100 (2400) and then divide the result (2400) by 25. The final answer is 2400/25=96 meaning he cycled 96% of the journey and walked 4% of the journey (100-96=4).

5 g of margarine contains 3.6 g
Komok [63]

Answer:

59.04g of fat

Step-by-step explanation:

I) Figure out how much grams of fat is in 1g of margarine:

3.6 ÷ 5 = 0.72

II) Next, we can figure out how much fat is in 82 g of margarine:

0.72 × 82 = 59.04

One shot formula:

(3.6g ÷ 5g) × 82g = 59.04g

Gelneren [198K]

This question is incomplete, in that the Excel File: data07-11.xlsx a. was not provided, but I was able to get the information on the Excel File: data07-11.xlsx a. from google as below:

57 61 86 74 72 73

20 57 80 79 83 74

The image of the Excel File: data07-11.xlsx a. is also attached below.

Answer:

a) Point estimate of sample mean  = 68

b) Point estimate of standard deviation (4 decimals) = 17.8122

Step-by-step explanation:

a) Point estimate of sample mean, \bar{x}  =  ∑Xi / n = (57 + 61 + 85 + 74 + 73 + 72 + 20 + 58 + 81 + 78 + 84 + 73)/12 = 68

b) Point estimate of standard deviation = sqrt ∑ Xi² - n\bar{x}² / n-1)

= sqrt(((57 - 68)^2 + (61 - 68)^2 + (85 - 68)^2 + (74 - 68)^2 + (73 - 68)^2 + (72 - 68)^2 + (20 - 68)^2 + (58 - 68)^2 + (81 - 68)^2 + (78 - 68)^2 + (84 - 68)^2 + (73 - 68)^2)/11) = 17.8122

44.1 = 4.9p what does “p” equal
Talja [164]

Step 1: Flip the equation.

4.9p=44.1

Step 2: Divide both sides by 4.9.

4.9p= 44.1

4.9/4.9 = 44.1/4.9

p=9

What’s the calculation of the equation 5/8-1/4=
Kay [80]

Answer: 3/8

Explanation: To subtract unlike fractions such as 5/8 - 1/4, first find a common denominator. The common denominator of 8 and 4 will be the least common multiple of 8 and 4 which is 8.

Notice that our first fraction already has 8 in the denominator so it stays the same. To get 8 in the denominator of 1/4, we multiply the numerator and denominator by 2 to get 2/8.

Now we have 5/8 - 2/8.

To subtract like fractions, we simply subtract the numerators to get 3 and keep our denominator of 8 and we have 3/8.

Since 3/8 is in lowest terms, it's our final answer.

Therefore, 5/8 - 1/4 = 3/8.
