-5/16

Our choices:-

A.-3/8

B.-11/12

C.-1/4

 D.-1/8

Let us get all of them with a LCD

-1*2 = -2
8*2 = 16

-2/16 is not bigger than -5/16

-11/12 is bigger than -5/16 because half of 16 is 8.

-1*4 = -4
4*4= 16

-4/16 is not bigger than -5/16

-1/8 is smaller than -5/16

Final answer: -11/12 is the only fraction bigger than -5/16

4. A statistician working for the National Basketball Association supplies the television announcers with interesting statistics

Sonbull [250]

Answer: 0.038

Step-by-step explanation:

Given: Total games : n= 375

Number of games won by the team that was winning the game at the end of the third quarter. = 300

The proportion (p) of the team that was winning the game at the end of the third quarter: $p=\dfrac{300}{375}=0.8$

Critical z-value for 90% confidence: z* = 1.645

Margin of error = $z^*\sqrt{\dfrac{(1-p)p}{n}}$

The margin of error in a 90% confidence interval estimate of p $=1.645\sqrt{\dfrac{0.2\times0.8}{300}}\\= 1.645\times\sqrt{0.00053333}\\\\=1.645\times0.0231\\\\=0.0379995\approx$$0.038$
