There are 2,000 eligible voters in a precinct. 500 of the voters are randomly selected and asked whether they planned to vote fo

r the democratic incumbent or the republican challenger. of the 500 surveyed, 350 said they would vote for the democratic incumbent. using the 0.99 confidence coefficient, what are the confidence limits for the proportion that plan to vote for the democratic incumbent?

99% confidence limits for population proportion is:

CL = P +- Z * √(P*(1-P)/N))

Where:

P = sample proportion

Z = Z-score taken at 99% confidence = 2.575

N = sample size

Calculating for the values:<span>
P = 350/500 = 0.7
N = 500 </span>

Substituting know values to the CL equation:

<span>CL = 0.7 +- 2.575* </span>√<span>(0.7*(1-0.7)/500))</span>

<span>CL = 0.647 , 0.753</span>

<span>
</span>

<span>Therefore confidence limits range from 0.647 to 0.753.</span>

5. Mis the midpoint of CD. C has coordinates (-1,-1) and

lana66690 [7]

Answer/Step-by-step Explanation:

4. Midpoint (M) of AB, for A(-2, -3) and B(1, 2) is given as:

$M(\frac{x_1 + x_2}{2}, \frac{y_1 + y_2}{2})$

Let $A(-2, -3) = (x_1, y_1)$

$B(1, 2) = (x_2, y_2)$

Thus:

$M(\frac{-2 + 1}{2}, \frac{-3 + 2}{2})$

$M(\frac{-1}{2}, \frac{-1}{2})$

5. Given M(3, 5) as midpoint of CD, and C(-1, -1),

let $C(-1, -1) = (x_2, y_2)$

$D(?, ?) = (x_1, y_1)$

$M(3, 5) = (\frac{x_1 +(-1)}{2}, \frac{y_1 +(-1)}{2})$

Rewrite the equation to find the coordinates of D

$3 = \frac{x_1 - 1}{2}$ and $5 = \frac{y_1 - 1}{2}$

Solve for each:

$3 = \frac{x_1 - 1}{2}$

$3*2 = \frac{x_1 - 1}{2}*2$

$6 = x_1 - 1$

$6 + 1= x_1 - 1 + 1$

$7 = x_1$

$x_1 = 7$

$5 = \frac{y_1 - 1}{2}$

$5*2 = \frac{y_1 - 1}{2}*2$

$10 = y_1 - 1$

$10 + 1= y_1 - 1 + 1$

$11 = y_1$

$y_1 = 11$

Coordinates of D is (7, 11)

Which graph best represents an exponential function?

stellarik [79]

Hey there! :)

Answer:

Choice B.

Step-by-step explanation:

We can eliminate each graph:

a). This is what is known as a step function. This is incorrect.

b). This is an exponential function because the graph is shaped like a geometric equation. This means that the rate of change is exponential. This is the correct choice.

c). This is an absolute value function. This is incorrect.

d). This is a graph of a polynomial. This does not represent an exponential function, which makes it incorrect.
