Answer:

If he divide the trail mix among 8 hikers equally each will get 48/8 = 6 ounces.

Step-by-step explanation:

He makes a trail mix . He mixed 1 1/8 pounds of peanuts , 12 ounces of raisins, 11 ounces of walnuts and 7 ounces of pretzels. Notice the weight units are not equal to we have to convert the pounds to ounces so all the weight will be in ounces.

1 pound = 16 ounces

1 1/8 pounds = ? ounces

cross multiply

1 1/8 × 16

9/8 × 16 = 18 ounces

Therefore,

His trail mix are

18 ounces of peanuts

12 ounces of raisins

11 ounces of walnuts

7 ounces of pretzels

The total weight = 18 + 12 + 11 + 7 = 48 ounces

Weight of the trail mix = 48 ounces

If he divide the trail mix among 8 hikers equally each will get 48/8 = 6 ounces.

A Rasmussen Reports survey of 1,000 US adults found that 42% believe raising the minimum wage will help the economy. Construct a

Answer:

(0.3798, 0.4602)

Step-by-step explanation:

Let p be the true proportion of US adults who believe raising the minimum wage will help the economy. A point estimate for p is $\hat{p}=0.42$ and a good aproximation (because we have a large sample) for the standard deviation of $\hat{p}$ is $\sqrt{\hat{p}(1-\hat{p})/n}=\sqrt{0.42(0.58)/1000}=0.0156$ . Therefore, a 99% confidence interval for p is given by $\hat{p}\pm z_{\alpha/2}\sqrt{\frac{\hat{p}(1-\hat{p})}{n}}$ where $\alpha=0.01$ and $z_{\alpha/2}$ is the $\alpha/2$ th quantile of the standard normal distribution, so we have, $0.42\pm z_{0.005}0.0156$ , i.e., $0.42\pm(-2.5758)(0.0156)$ or equivalently (0.3798, 0.4602).
