Given:

p = 7.6% = 0.076, the percentage of people who stay overnight at the hospital.

E = 1.5% = 0.015, margin of error

95% confidence interval.

The standard error is

Es = \sqrt{ \frac{p(1-p)}{n} }

where

n = the sample size.


The margin of error is

E=z^{*}E_{s}

where

z* = 1.96 at the 95% confidence level.

Because the margin of error is given, there is no need to calculate it.

The 95% confidence interval is

p +/- E = 0.076 +/- 0.015 = (0.061, 0.091) = (6.1%, 9.1%)


Answer: 

The 95% confidence interval is between 6.1% and 9.1%.

How to solve 10m-2/5=48/5
Romashka [77]

Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:

10m-2/5=9 and 3/5

10m-2/5=9.6 (where 9 and 3/5 is equal to 9.6)

50m-2=48 (i multiplied 10m by 5 and 9.6 by 5)

50m=50 ( i added 2 to both sides)

m=1 ( i divided by 50 to both sides to find m)

What is the value of y in the equation 2(3y + 7 + 5) = 196 − 16? (1 point) Group of answer choices 13 14 26 28
Tema [17]

Answer:

Option c) is correct.

The value of y in the given equation is 26 ie., y=26

Step-by-step explanation:

Given equation is

2(3y+7+5)=196-16

Now to the find the value of y in the above equation.

To find y simplify the above equation

2(3y+7+5)=196-16

2(3y+12)=180

Now apply distributive property

6y+24=180

6y=180-24

=\frac{156}{6}

Therefore y=26

Option c) is correct.

The value of y in the given equation is 26 ie., y=26
