If the width is literally x then:
12(2)+2(x)
24+2x is the perimeter

12(x)
12x is the area

A survey is being conducted to decide on how much time people spend watching sports on television. Tell whether the given sample

Naddika [18.5K]

Sampling bias occurs when some members of a population are systematically more likely to be selected in a sample than others. From this definition,

For sample 1, Every fifth person who enters Little Casesars Arena for a Red Wings game. This is not biased because no person is more likely to be selected than another

For sample 2, Every tenth name in the phone. This is also not biased

because no person is more likely to be selected than another

Why is division not commutative

Kamila [148]

Division CANNOT be commutative, here is why

lets say the problem is 24÷4

it is obviously 6

but when you flip 24÷4, you get 4÷24

and... 4÷24 is 0.16666666

6 and 0.1666 is totally different :p

A clinical trial tests a method designed to increase the probability of conceiving a girl. In the study 335335 babies were born

strojnjashka [21]

Answer:

The 99% confidence interval estimate of the percentage of girls born is (74.37%, 85.63%).

Usually, 50% of the babies are girls. This confidence interval gives values considerably higher than that, so the method to increase the probability of conceiving a girl appears to be very effective.

Step-by-step explanation:

Confidence Interval for the proportion:

In a sample with a number n of people surveyed with a probability of a success of $\pi$ , and a confidence level of $1-\alpha$ , we have the following confidence interval of proportions.

$\pi \pm z\sqrt{\frac{\pi(1-\pi)}{n}}$

In which

z is the zscore that has a pvalue of $1 - \frac{\alpha}{2}$ .

For this problem, we have that:

$n = 335, \pi = \frac{268}{335} = 0.8$

99% confidence level

So $\alpha = 0.01$ , z is the value of Z that has a pvalue of $1 - \frac{0.01}{2} = 0.995$ , so $Z = 2.575$ .

The lower limit of this interval is:

$\pi - z\sqrt{\frac{\pi(1-\pi)}{n}} = 0.8 - 2.575\sqrt{\frac{0.8*0.2}{335}} = 0.7437$

The upper limit of this interval is:

$\pi + z\sqrt{\frac{\pi(1-\pi)}{n}} = 0.8 + 2.575\sqrt{\frac{0.8*0.2}{335}} = 0.8563$

For the percentage:

Multiplying the proportions by 100.

The 99% confidence interval estimate of the percentage of girls born is (74.37%, 85.63%).

Usually, 50% of the babies are girls. This confidence interval gives values considerably higher than that, so the method to increase the probability of conceiving a girl appears to be very effective.
