Answer:

The 95% confidence interval of the proportion of all adults that have high blood pressure is 0.17059 < \hat{p} < 0.314695

Step-by-step explanation:

The confidence interval for a proportion is given by the following formula;

CI=\hat{p}\pm z\times \sqrt{\frac{\hat{p}(1-\hat{p})}{n}}

Where:

x = 33

n = 136

\hat{p} = x/n = 33/136 = 0.243

z value for 95% confidence is 1.96

Plugging in the values, we have;

CI=0.243\pm 1.96\times \sqrt{\frac{0.243(1-0.243)}{136}}

Which gives;

0.17059 < \hat{p} < 0.314695

Hence the 95% confidence interval of the proportion of all adults that have high blood pressure = 0.17059 < \hat{p} < 0.314695

From the above we have;

23.2 < x < 42.798

Since we are dealing with people, we round down as follows;

23 < x < 42.

Zoe works in a bakery. She uses 250 milliliters of milk to make a loaf of bread. How many liters of milk will she need to make 1
bonufazy [111]

Answer: 3.75 liters

Step-by-step explanation:

Zoe uses 250 milliliters of milk to make a loaf of bread.

If she needed to make 15 loaves therefore, she would do the following:

= 250 * 15 loaves

= 3,750 milliliters of milk

Then convert the above quantity to liters.

1 Liter = 1,000 milliliters.

3,750 milliters to liters is:

= 3,750 / 1,000

= 3.75 liters

HELP!!!!!
8090 [49]
Hi!

2.06m + 6.13 = 17.78

First subtract 6.13 from both sides
2.06m + 6.13 - 6.13 = 17.78 - 6.13
2.06m = 11.65

Divide by 2.06 on both sides
2.06m/2.06 = 11.65/2.06
m = 5.7

Rachel can travel 5.7 miles.

Hope this helps! :)

What are the types of roots of the equation below?<br><br>x^4 - 81 = 0​
natali 33 [55]

Answer:

x^4 - 81 = 0  

(x² - 9)(x² + 9) = 0  

Notice that the first of these is itself a difference of two squares:  

(x - 3)(x + 3)(x² + 9) = 0  

So the solutions are x = 3, x = -3, x = 3i, x = -3i
