Let us always base on the present age. We denote this by x. Now, the age he had 2 years ago would then be denoted as (x-2). Let's equate this to 20 years old.

x - 2 = 20
x = 20 + 2
x = 22 years old
He should be 22 years old now.

Let's check the other condition. After 1 year, his age should be (x+1). Let's equate this to 23 years old.

x + 1 = 23
x = 23 - 1
x = 22


Thus, this is possible if Reuben is 22 years old as of the present.

Suppose that administrators of a large school district wish to estimate the proportion of children in the district enrolling in
11Alexandr11 [23.1K]

Answer:

95% z-confidence interval for the proportion of all children enrolled in kindergarten who attended preschool is between a lower limit of 0.528 and an upper limit of 0.772.

Step-by-step explanation:

Confidence interval = p + or - zsqrt[p(1-p) ÷ n]

p is sample proportion = 39/60 = 0.65

n is the number of children sampled = 60

Confidence level (C) = 95% = 0.95

Significance level = 1 - C = 1 - 0.95 = 0.05

Divide significance level by 2 to obtain critical value (z)

0.05/2 = 0.025 = 2.5%

z at 2.5% significance level = 1.96

zsqrt[p(1-p) ÷ n] = 1.96sqrt[0.65(1-0.65) ÷ 60] = 1.96sqrt[0.2275 ÷ 60] = 1.96sqrt(3.792×10^-3) = 1.96×0.062 = 0.122

Lower limit = p - 0.122 = 0.65 - 0.122 = 0.528

Upper limit = p + 0.122 = 0.65 + 0.122 = 0.772

95% confidence interval is between 0.528 and 0.772
