Answer:

[0.4979, 0.5479]

Step-by-step explanation:

-We first determine the sample proportion:

\hat p=\frac{x}{n}\\\\=\frac{528}{1008}\\\\=0.5238

-The confidence  intervals of a sample proportion is calculated using the formula:

CI=\hat p\pm z\sqrt{\frac{\hat p(1-\hat p}{n}}

#We substitute for the sample proportion and z value to get the Confidence interval:

CI=\hat p\pm z\sqrt{\frac{\hat p(1-\hat p}{n}}\\\\=0.5238\pm 1.645\times \sqrt{\frac{0.5238\times0.4762}{1008}}\\\\=0.5238\pm0.0259\\\\=[0.4979,0.5497]

Hence, the 90% confidence intervals is [0.4979,0.5479]

Evaluate f(x) = 4x + 3x^2 − 5 when x = -2.<br> 23<br><br><br> -1<br><br><br> -25<br><br><br> -49
frozen [14]

Answer:

f(-2) = -1

Step-by-step explanation:

One way of doing this is to substitute -2 for x in every place where x shows up:

f(x) = 4x + 3x^2 − 5  →  f(-2) = 4(-2) + 3(-2)^2 − 5  

                                 → f(-2)  = -8    + 3(4) -   5, or f(-2) = 4 - 5, or f(-2) = -1

Find the sum of the first 10<br> terms.<br> 40,37,34,31,...
MArishka [77]

Answer:

It seems each number is 3 less than the previous number.

We must sum these 10 numbers

40, 37, 34, 31, 28, 25, 22, 19, 16, 13

The sum would equal the average of the middle 2 numbers times 10.

(28 + 25) / 2 = 53 / 2 = 26.5

We multiply by 10 because there are 10 numbers and this equals

265

Determine the value of w and x in the figure below. (Thanks for the help I really appreciate it!)​
storchak [24]
Triangle HAM looks like an isosceles triangle, and we know that in an isosceles triangle 2 of the angles are the same.

so :
180 - 106 = 74 ( sum of the other 2 angles )
74/2 = 37 ( sum of angle HMA / HAM )

angles on a straight line add up to 180.
180-37=143 ( angle x )

since triangle YMH is also an isosceles,
180-37=143
143/2=71.5 ( angle w )

Please help this is past due
Rom4ik [11]

Answer:

See below.

Step-by-step explanation:

Alexi originally has $43 in his bank account and deposits $7 per week.

Week 1: $50

Week 2: $57

Week 3: $64

Week 4: $71

Week 5: $78

The pattern is that it increased $7 every week starting from $43.

A pattern rule would be: y = 7x + 43 where x represents the number of weeks.
