Answer:

1 lbs=$7.90

Step-by-step explanation:

To solve this problem we need to use a proportion

$\frac{lbs}{price} =\frac{187}{1,477.38}= \frac{1}{?}$

to solve the proportion we would divide 1,477.38 by 187 which is 7.9 so the price per pound is 7.9

Answer:

$-0.061 < P_1 -P_2< 0.025$

Step-by-step explanation:

Give data:

$n_1 = 350$

$n_2 =250$

$x_1 = 23$

$x_2 = 21$

$\hat{P} 1 = \frac{x_1}{n_1} = \frac{23}{350} = 0.066$

$\hat{P} 2 = \frac{x_2}{n_2} = \frac{21}{250} = 0.084$

for 95% confidence interval

$\alpha = 1 - 0.95 = 0.05 and \alpha/2 = 0.025$

$z_{\alpha/2} = 1.96$ from standard z- table

confidence interval for P_1 and P_2 is

$\hat{P} 1 - \hat{P} 2 \pm z_{\alpja/2} \sqrt{\frac{\hat{P} 1(1-\hat{P} 1)}{n_1} +\frac{\hat{P} 2(1-\hat{P} 2)}{n_2}}$

$(0.066 - 0.084) \pm 1.96 \sqrt{\frac{0.066(1-0.066)}{350} +\frac{0.084(1-0.084)}{250}}$

$-0.018 \pm 0.043$

confidence interval is

$-0.018 - 0.043 < P_1 -P_2$

$-0.061 < P_1 -P_2< 0.025$
