The <u><em>correct answer</em></u> is:

d) People per hour, because the dependent quantity is the people

Explanation:

In this situation, the two quantities are people and hours. These are the two things in this problem we can count or measure.

The independent variable is the one that causes a change, while the dependent variable is the one that <em>gets</em> changed. In this situation, the number of people change every hour; this means the number of people <em>gets</em> changed, which makes it the dependent variable. This means that the independent variable must be time.

Since people is dependent and time is independent, "people per hour" would be the best form of this statement.

Of 1,050 randomly selected adults, 360 identified themselves as manual laborers, 280 identified themselves as non-manual wage ea

Answer:

We can claim with 95% confidence that the proportion of executives that prefer trucks is between 19.2% and 32.8%.

Step-by-step explanation:

We have a sample of executives, of size n=160, and the proportion that prefer trucks is 26%.

We have to calculate a 95% confidence interval for the proportion.

The sample proportion is p=0.26.

The standard error of the proportion is:

$\sigma_p=\sqrt{\dfrac{p(1-p)}{n}}=\sqrt{\dfrac{0.26*0.74}{160}}\\\\\\ \sigma_p=\sqrt{0.0012}=0.0347$

The critical z-value for a 95% confidence interval is z=1.96.

The margin of error (MOE) can be calculated as:

$MOE=z\cdot \sigma_p=1.96 \cdot 0.0347=0.068$

Then, the lower and upper bounds of the confidence interval are:

$LL=p-z \cdot \sigma_p = 0.26-0.068=0.192\\\\UL=p+z \cdot \sigma_p = 0.26+0.068=0.328$

The 95% confidence interval for the population proportion is (0.192, 0.328).

We can claim with 95% confidence that the proportion of executives that prefer trucks is between 19.2% and 32.8%.
