Answer:

Answer : (0.1183 ≤ p ≤ 0.3103)

Step-by-step explanation:

Solution :

Given that,

a) n = 70

x = 15

Point estimate = sample proportion (p)= x / n = 15 / 70 = 0.2143

1 - p = 1 - 0.2143 = 0.7857

At 95% confidence level

α = 1 - 95%

α =1 - 0.95 =0.05

α/2 = 0.025  

Zα/2 = Z0.025 = 1.960

Margin of error = E = Zα / 2 * √ (( p * (1 - p )) / n)

= 1.96 (√((0.2143 * 0.7857) / 70)

= 0.096

A 95% confidence interval for population proportion p is ,

P - E ≤ p ≤ P + E

0.2143 - 0.096 ≤p ≤ 0.2143 + 0.096

(0.1183 ≤ p ≤ 0.3103)

The base of the 37 foot ladder is 9 feet from the wall of a building. will the top of the ladder reach a window ledge 35 feet ab
AnnZ [28]

Answer:

The answer to your question is Yes.

Step-by-step explanation:

The math in this problem is that we need to use the Pythagorean theorem to solve it. Pythagorean theorem is part of trigonometry a branch of Maths.

Data

base = 9 ft                      

length = 37 ft

height = ?

Pythagorean theorem

                                     c² = a² + b²

length = c

base = a

height = b

                                   37² = 9² + b²

-Solve for b

                                    b² = 37² - 9²

-Simplify

                                    b² = 1369 - 81

                                    b² = 1288

-Result

                                   b = 35.88

-Conclusion

The ladder will reach a height higher than 35 ft.

Why is 1/6 greater than 1/8 but less than 1/3??
ollegr [7]
1/6 is greater than 1/8 but less than 1/3 because: think of 1 slice taken away from a pizza with 6 slices, now think of 1 slice taken away from a pizza with 8 slices. Do the same with the last pizza. Think how much space was taken away from each pizza.
