A 2007 survey of 980 American drivers concluded that 38% of the driving population would be willing to pay higher gas prices to

protect the environment. Which of the following best describes what is meant by the poll having a margin of error of 3%?
a. Three percent of those surveyed refused to participate in the poll.
b. It would not be unexpected for 3 percent of the population to readily agree to the higher gas price.
c. Between 343 and 402 of the 980 drivers surveyed responded that they would be willing to pay higher gas prices to protect the environment.
d. If a similar survey of 980 American drivers was taken weekly, a 3% change in each week's results would not be unexpected.
e. If is likely that between 35% and 41% percent of the driving population would be willing to pay higher gas prices to protect the environment.

Answer:

The correct answer to the question is

e. If is likely that between 35% and 41% percent of the driving population would be willing to pay higher gas prices to protect the environment.

Step-by-step explanation:

The margin of error expresses the number of percentage points of error is contained within  survey result. A large error margin therefore reduces the level of dependence on a given statistic. The margin of error describes the expected variation between the statistic sample and the real population value.

In the question, the option

e. If is likely that between 35% and 41% percent of the driving population would be willing to pay higher gas prices to protect the environment , clearly depicts the definition of margin of error as it shows the expected variance from te real population

A professor thinks that the students in her statistics class this term are less creative than most students at this university.
choli [55]

Answer:

It is not enough evidence to reject null hypothesis. It is not enough evidence to say that mean score is not equal to 35.

Step-by-step explanation:

\mu=35\\n=23\\\=x=33\\s=5\\\alpha=0.1

1. Null and alternative hypothesis

H_{0}:\mu=35\\H_{1}:\mu

2. Significance level

\alpha=0.1\\1-\alpha=0.99

Freedom degrees is given by:

v=n-1\\v=23-1=22

For a sgnificance level of 0,01 and 22 freedom degrees,  t-student distribution value is:

t_{0.01;23}=-2. 5083

3. Test statistic

t=\frac{\=x-\mu}{\frac{s}{\sqrt{n} } }

t=\frac{33-35}{\frac{5}{\sqrt{23} } }

t=-1,918

In this case, we have an one left tailed analysis, it means that null hypothesis is rejected if t

-1.918>-2.5083

Conclusion:

It is not enough evidence to reject null hypothesis. It is not enough evidence to say that mean score is not equal to 35.

Evaluate the expression 4(2x + 3) + 2(x + 1)-7
Svetlanka [38]
4 (2x + 3) + 2 (x + 1) - 7

8x + 12 + 2x +  2 - 7

10x + 7

10x = -7
10x/10 = -7/10

x = -7/10

hope this helps
