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)

Mr. smith has 5 courses he teaches at the community college. his course a has 102 students with an average tardiness of 3 studen
Furkat [3]

The percentage of tardiness among the 102 pupils is 2.94.

<h2>Calculation of the percentage</h2>

According to the query,

Course A: Total number of students = 102

                   Number of tardy students = 3

Percent of students tardy in course A = (number of tardy students/total  

                                                                   number of students) * 100

  =(3/102)*100

  = 2.941

  ≈2.94

In case of course B: Total number of students = 85 & tardy student = 5

So, the percent of tardy student = (5/85)*100 = 5.88 %

Therefore, it is concluded that the percentage of student tardiness in course A is 2.94.
