Answer:

The 95% confidence interval for the population parameter is (0.4718, 0.6882).

Step-by-step explanation:

In a sample with a number n of people surveyed with a probability of a success of \pi, and a confidence interval 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 = 80, p = 0.58

95% confidence interval

So \alpha = 0.05, z is the value of Z that has a pvalue of 1 - \frac{0.05}{2} = 0.975, so z = 1.96.

The lower limit of this interval is:

\pi - z\sqrt{\frac{\pi(1-\pi)}{n}} = 0.58 - 1.96\sqrt{\frac{0.58*0.42}{80}} = 0.4718

The upper limit of this interval is:

\pi + z\sqrt{\frac{\pi(1-\pi)}{n}} = 0.58 + 1.96\sqrt{\frac{0.58*0.42}{80}} = 0.6882

The 95% confidence interval for the population parameter is (0.4718, 0.6882).

A diamond ring was reduced from $999.99 to $699.99. Find the percent decrease in the price. Round the answer to the nearest tent
poizon [28]

Answer:

30.0% decrease.

Step-by-step explanation:

A diamond ring was reduced from $999.99 to $699.99

The decrease is; $999.99 - $699.99 = $300.00

Percentage decrease = \frac{decrease}{original price} × 100

i.e percentage decrease = \frac{300}{999.99} × 100 = 30.0003%

And it equals to 30.0% (rounded off to the nearest tenth of a percent)
