The yearbook committee polled 80 randomly selected students from a class of 320 ninth graders to see if they would be willing to

pay more for a yearbook if their names were printed on the front. Of the students who were surveyed, 26 of them said they would be willing to pay extra. With a desired confidence interval of 90%, which has a z*-score of 1.645, what is the margin of error of this survey? E = z* 4% 6% 8% 9%

Answer:

The margin of error is given below:

E=z \times \sqrt{\frac{\hat{p}(1-\hat{p}}{n} }

Where:

\hat{p}=\frac{26}{80}=0.325

\therefore E = z \times \sqrt{\frac{0.325(1-0.325}{80} }

                           =z \times 0.0523659

Therefore, the option E = z*6% is correct as it closest to the given answer

Answer:

Find the sample size and sample proportion then multiply the sample proportion by 1-p divide the result by n take the square root of the calculated value multiply the result by the appropriate z value.

Sample size = 80 sample proportion is the number in the sample with the characteristic of interest, divided by n, so it is computed by = 26/80 = .325 or .33 The margin of error for this polling question is calculated in this matter: Z* square root of ((p(1-p)) divided by sample size=1.645* square root of (.33)(.67) divided by 80= 1.645 * 0.0526= 0.0865 or 8.7% According to this data, you conclude with 90% confidence that 33% of the students who were surveyed are willing to pay extra have a margin of error of 8.7% which rounds out to 9%

Anit [1.1K]

Answer:

10.2 ft

Step-by-step explanation:

a^{2} +b^{2} = c^{2} \\8^{2} +b^{2} =13^{2} \\

64 + b^{2} = 169

b^{2} = 105\\

b=\sqrt{105}

b= 10.2469

kvv77 [185]
The height of the fence is irrelevant. The bottom of the ladder is 3+8 = 11 feet from the building. The window is 14ft above the ground:
sqrt(14^2+11^2) = length of your ladder.

A water cooler can hold 50 pt of water.
Nookie1986 [14]

Water cooler holds = 50 pt of water

1 L≈1.06 qt (which is the value of US liquid quart)

1.06 qt = 2.12 pt (which is the value of US liquid pint)

So when we are calculating how many liters of water cooler holds, divide the 50pt with 2.12pt

50pt/2.12pt = 23.6 Liters

<span>So 23.6 is the correct answer.</span>
