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).

If 48% of the students in a certain college are female and there are 1440 female students, what is the total number of students
Andrews [41]

Answer:

3000 students

Step-by-step explanation:

If 48% of the students are female, and there are 1440 female students, we can set up a percentage proportion, assuming x is the total amount of students.

\frac{1440}{x} = \frac{48}{100}

We can use the cross products property to find the value of x.

1440\cdot100=144000\\\\144000\div48=3000

Hope this helped!

8 1/2 x 2 3/4 x 2/3= 12
Aloiza [94]

Answer:

155.25= 12

Step-by-step explanation:

              17/2*2*1/2 = 12

                 17*1/2 = 12

8 1/2          17/1* 1/2

8*2+1          17*1/1*2  

   2             17*1/1*2

16+1               17/1*2

  2                  17/2

17                     8.5=12
