Answer:

(0.2935, 0.4265)

Step-by-step explanation:

Given that a random sample of 200 books purchased at a local bookstore showed that 72 of the books were murder mysteries.

Sample proportion p follows the following characteristics

p 0.36

q 0.64

pq/n 0.001152

Std dev 0.033941125

For 95% confidence level we have critical value as

Z critical = 1.96

Hence margin of error = 1.96*std dev

Confidence interval = (sample proportion - margin of error, sample proportion + margin of error)

=(0.2935, 0.4265)

The figure below shows half circles at the ends of a rectangle with the demensions shown. Which is closest to the area of the fi
loris [4]
The closest answer is 95 square inches. Here is why.  You can find the area of the rectangle by multiplying the length by the width.  This would be 15 x 5 = 75 square inches.  The area of the whole circle that is created when you put both halves together would be found by multiplying 3.14 x 2.5 in (the radius) x 2.5 in.  This answer is about 20 square inches.  The combined area is approximately 95 square inches.
