Three vertices of a square are given. Find the coordinates of the fourth vertex. (_5, 5), (_5, 2), (_2, 2)

1 answer:

4 0

If you plot these points, you can probably see where the missing square corner is. But you might also notice that a square's sides are equal length. Between the first two coordinate pairs, the only thing that changes is the y value, from 5 to 2, or a change of 3. Between the 2nd two coordinate pairs, only the x value changes, from -5 to -2, or a change of 3. So it looks like the sides are 3 units long. The fourth coordinate should be 3 units away on the x coordinate from one "neighbor" and 3 units away on the y coordinate from its other neighbor. But it really would help to sketch it out so you don't get mixed up.

Elderly drivers. In January 2011, The Marist Poll published a report stating that 66% of adults nationally think licensed driver

katrin [286]

Answer:

(a) Hence, the margin of error reported by The Marist Poll was correct.

(b) Based on a 95% confidence interval the poll does not provide convincing evidence that more than 70% of the population think that licensed drivers should be required to retake their road test once they turn 65.

Step-by-step explanation:

We are given that the Marist Poll published a report stating that 66% of adults nationally think licensed drivers should be required to retake their road test once they reach 65 years of age.

It was also reported that interviews were conducted on 1,018 American adults, and that the margin of error was 3% using a 95% confidence level.

(a) Margin of error formula is given by;

Margin of Error = $Z_(_\frac{\alpha}{2}_) \times \sqrt{\frac{\hat p(1-\hat p)}{n} }$

where, $\alpha$ = level of significance = 1 - 0.95 = 0.05 or 5%

Standard of error = $\sqrt{\frac{\hat p(1-\hat p)}{n} }$

Also, $\hat p$ = sample proportion of adults nationally think licensed drivers should be required to retake their road test once they reach 65 years of age = 66%

n = sample of American adults = 1.018

The critical value of z for level of significance of 2.5% is 1.96.

So, Margin of Error = $Z_(_\frac{\alpha}{2}_) \times \sqrt{\frac{\hat p(1-\hat p)}{n} }$

= $1.96 \times \sqrt{\frac{0.66(1-0.66)}{1,018} }$ = 0.03 or 3%

Hence, the margin of error reported by The Marist Poll was correct.

(b) Now, the pivotal quantity for 95% confidence interval for the population proportion who think that licensed drivers should be required to retake their road test once they turn 65 is given by;

P.Q. = $\frac{\hat p-p}{ \sqrt{\frac{\hat p(1-\hat p)}{n} }}$ ~ N(0,1)

So, 95% confidence interval for p = $\hat p \pm \text{Margin of error}$

= $0.66 \pm 0.03$

= [0.66 - 0.03 , 0.66 + 0.03]

= [0.63 , 0.69]

Hence, based on a 95% confidence interval the poll does not provide convincing evidence that more than 70% of the population think that licensed drivers should be required to retake their road test once they turn 65 because the interval does not include the value of 70% or more.
