Answer:

The 95% confidence interval for those opposed is: (0.298, 0.334).

Step-by-step explanation:

In a sample with a number n of people surveyed with a probability of a success of \pi, and a confidence level of 1-\alpha, we have the following confidence interval of proportions.

\pi \pm z\sqrt{\frac{\pi(1-\pi)}{n}}

In which

z is the zscore that has a pvalue of 1 - \frac{\alpha}{2}.

For this problem, we have that:

1786 of the 2611 were in favor, so 2611 - 1786 = 825 were opposed. Then

n = 2611, \pi = \frac{825}{2611} = 0.316

95% confidence level

So \alpha = 0.05, z is the value of Z that has a pvalue of 1 - \frac{0.05}{2} = 0.975, so Z = 1.96.

The lower limit of this interval is:

\pi - z\sqrt{\frac{\pi(1-\pi)}{n}} = 0.316 - 1.96\sqrt{\frac{0.316*0.684}{2611}} = 0.298

The upper limit of this interval is:

\pi + z\sqrt{\frac{\pi(1-\pi)}{n}} = 0.316 + 1.96\sqrt{\frac{0.316*0.684}{2611}} = 0.334

The 95% confidence interval for those opposed is: (0.298, 0.334).

gregori [183]
The answer for the exercise shown above is the second option, which is: <span>Maximum: 32°; minimum: −8°; period: 10 hours.
 The explanation is shown below:
</span> You can make a graph of the function given in the problem above: f(t)=20Sin(π/5t)+12.
 As you can see in the graph, the maximum point is at 32 over the y-axis, and the minimum is at -8.
 The lenght of the repeating pattern of the function (Its period) is 10.

Find the slope of each line
yuradex [85]
The slope is -2. this is because if you look at the graph it goes down 2 units and it goes right to the once so it’ll be -2/1 which equals -2.

6. If 55% of the selling price is markup, the remainder (45%) is the cost. Gaitan can pay up to 45% of 489.50 = $220.28.

7. If 52% of the selling price is markup, the remainder (48%) is the cost. 48% of the selling price is $38.87.

... 0.48 × selling price = cost

... selling price = cost/0.48 = $38.87/0.48 = $80.98

8. If 40% of the selling price is markup, the remainder (60%) is the cost, $12.95.

... 0.60 × selling price = $12.95

... selling price = $12.95/0.60 = $21.58

9. If 35% of the selling price is markup, the remainder (65%) is the cost.

... 0.65 × $24.00/dz = $15.60/dz

10. If 60% of the selling price is markup, the remainder (40%) is the cost. Veronica can pay up to 40% of $600.00 = $240 for the jacket.
