Answer:

B. 0.60

Step-by-step explanation:

Let be

X = adults in the survey said they were rooting for North High School

µ = mean

σ = standard deviation

let be

X1 = 0.52

X2 = 0.68

We know that a 95% confidence interval correspond to z values of -1.96 and 0.96

Now we have two equations to find µ and σ

-1.96 = (0.52 –µ)/σ  ….. equation 1

1.96 = (0.68 –µ)/σ   ….. equation 2

Dividing equation 1 and equation 2

-1.0 = (0.52 –µ)/ (0.68 –µ)

-1.0 (0.52 –µ) = (0.68 –µ)  

-0.52 + µ =0.68 - µ

µ + µ = 0.68 + 0.52

2 µ = 1.2

µ = 0.6

Jim wishes to buy 3 gifts that cost 15 dollars, 9 dollars, and 12 dollars. he has 1/4 of the money he needs, how much more money
Archy [21]
In order to solve this, you have to plug in all of the costs of the gifts and add them, which in all equals $36. since jim only has 1/4 of the money he needs to buy the gifts, you need to divide 36 by 4. this gives you 9, so now you know he has 9 dollars.
and to find out how much more money he needs, you can subtract 9 from 36 which represents a fourth of the required money. the answer is 27, that's how much jim needs in order to buy his gifts.
