Answer: (0.5496, 0.5754)

Step-by-step explanation:

The confidence interval for population proportion (p) is given by :-

\hat{p}\pm z*\sqrt{\dfrac{\hat{p}(1-\hat{p})}{n}}  , where \hat{p}= Sample proportion , n= sample size , z*= Critical z-value.

Let p be the  proportion of all college students who are in favor of banning Hawaiian shirt.

Given, A random sample of 4000 college students yielded 2250 who are in favor of banning Hawaiian shirts.

i.e. n=4000

\hat{p}=\dfrac{2250}{4000}=0.5625

z-value for 90% confidence level is 1.645

Now , 90% confidence interval for p would be :

0.5625\pm (1.645)(\sqrt{\dfrac{0.5625(1-0.5625)}{4000}})

=0.5625\pm (1.645)(\sqrt{0.0000615234375})\\\\=0.5625\pm (1.645)(0.00784368774876)\\\\\approx0.5625\pm0.0129\\\\=(0.5625-0.0129, \ 0.5625+0.0129)\\\\=(0.5496,\ 0.5754)

Hence, the required 90% interval = (0.5496, 0.5754)

-4(-3x - 8) - 4x + 8 = -8x + 40
Andrew [12]
First we expand and combine the terms on the left side.  This gives us

12x + 32 -4x + 8 = -8x + 40 

8x + 40 = -8x + 40.  Because the two sides cancel each other out when you try and bring all the x to one side, the answer is x = 0.

The difference between the acute angles of a right angled triangle is 72degree find them .
MaRussiya [10]

The 2 angles add up to 90 degrees so

x + y = 90, also:-

x - y = 72 (given)

adding the 2 equations:-

2x = 162

x = 81

and therefore

y + 81 = 90

y = 9


Answer the 2 angles are 81 and 9 degrees

1. Construct Paasche's price index number from the following table for 2017
Crank

Answer:

A

Step-by-step explanation:

Tess is going to purchase a new car that has a list price of $29,190. She is planning on trading in her good-condition 2006 Dodge Dakota and financing the rest of the cost over four years, paying monthly. Her finance plan has an interest rate of 10.73%, compounded monthly. Tess will also be responsible for 7.14% sales tax, a $1,235 vehicle registration fee, and a $97 documentation fee. If the dealer gives Tess 75% of the listed trade-in price on her car, once the financing is paid off, what percent of the total amount paid will the interest be? (Consider the trade-in to be a reduction in the amount paid.)             <u> ANSWER A</u>

A 100-foot rope from the top of a tree house to the ground forms a 45∘ angle of elevation from the ground. How high is the top o
DochEvi [55]

Answer:

The height of tree house is 70.71 feet

Step-by-step explanation:

We are given that A 100-foot rope from the top of a tree house to the ground forms a 45∘ angle of elevation from the ground

Refer the attached figure

Length of rope AC = Hypotenuse =100 feet

The top of a tree house to the ground forms a 45∘ angle of elevation from the ground =\angle ACB = 45^{\circ}

We are supposed to find the height of tree house i.e.AB = Perpendicular

So, Using trigonometric ratio

Sin \theta = \frac{perpendicular}{Hypotenuse}\\Sin 45= \frac{AB}{AC}\\\frac{1}{\sqrt{2}}=\frac{AB}{100}\\100 \times \frac{1}{\sqrt{2}}=AB\\70.71=AB

Hence The height of tree house is 70.71 feet
