Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:

Hello!

The variable of interest is X: number of individuals that hold multiple jobs in a sample of 225.

And you need to calculate the probability of the proportion of individuals being between 0.14 and 0.18.

Considering that the parameter of interest is the proportion and the sample is large enough you can use the standard normal approximation to calculate this interval.

Z= \frac{p'-p}{\sqrt{\frac{p(1-p)}{n} } }

Unfortunately, there is no given value for the population proportion of individuals that have multiple jobs. Let's say, for example, that his proportion is 10%.

You can symbolize the probabilities as:

P(0.14≤X≤0.18)= P(X≤0.18)-P(X≤0.14)

Using the approximation of the standard normal you can standardize these proportion values:

P(Z≤(0.18-0.1)/√[(0.1*0.9)/225])-P(Z≤(0.14-0.1)/√[(0.1*0.9)/225])

P(Z≤4)-P(Z≤2)

Now you have to look for the corresponding values in the table of the Z distribution (right table, positive numbers of Z)

P(Z≤4)-P(Z≤2)= 1 - 0.97725= 0.02275

I hope it helps!

Answer:

0.1276

Step-by-step explanation:

Let sample space = S

∴ n(S) = 225

Probability of multiple jobs A, that is, P(A) = 0.14

Probability of multiple jobs B, that is, P(B) = 0.18

Hence, P(A) = n(A)/n(S)

∴ 0.14 = n(A)/225

n(A) = 0.14 X 225 = 31.5%

Also, P(B) = n(B)/n(S)

∴ 0.18 = n(B)/225

n(B) = 0.18 X 225 = 40.5%

The probability that the multiple jobs, P( A2 ∩ B2) = P(A2) X P(B2)

P(A2) = 0.315 and P(B2) = 0.405

∴ P(A2 ∩ B2) =  P(A2) X P(B2) = 0.315 X 0.405 = 0.1276

Find the area of the parallelogram​
inn [45]

Hello from MrBillDoesMath!

Answer:

32 ft^2

Discussion:

You solved it yourself. The area of a parallelogram of base "b" and height  (altitude) "h" is b*h. In this case

Area = 8 * 4 = 32 ft^2

Thank you,

Answer:

The following tells what variable terms are and a explanation. I hope this is helpful

Step-by-step explanation:

Each expression is made up of terms. A term can be a signed number, a variable, or a constant multiplied by a variable or variables. ... In , the terms are: 5x, 3y, and 8. When a term is made up of a constant multiplied by a variable or variables, that constant is called a coefficient.
