This problem has been solved!See the answerFor many years businesses have struggled with the rising cost of health care. But rec

ently the increases have slowed due to less inflation in health care prices and employees paying for a larger portion of health care benefits. A recent Mercer survey showed that 52% of U.S. employers were likely to require higher employee contributions for health care coverage in 2009. Suppose the survey was based on a sample of 800 companies. Compute the margin of error and a 95% confidence interval for the proportion of companies likely to require higher employee contributions for health care coverage in 2009.

<h2>Answer with explanation:</h2>

Given : The proportion of U.S. employers were likely to require higher employee contributions for health care coverage in 2009 : p=0.52

Sample size : n= 800

Significance level : \alpha=1-0.95=0.05

Critical value : z_{\alpha/2}=1.96

Margin of error : E=z_{\alpha/2}\sqrt{\dfrac{p(1-p)}{n}}

\\\\\Rightarrow\ E=(1.96)\sqrt{\dfrac{0.52(1-0.52)}{800}}=0.03462050259\approx0.03

The 95% confidence interval for the proportion of companies likely to require higher employee contributions for health care coverage in 2009 will be :_

p\pm E\\\\=0.52\pm0.03=(0.52-0.03,0.52+0.03)=(0.49,\ 0.55)

Sharon is making 100 liters of punch for a party. The punch contains ginger ale (g) and fruit (f). The cost of the ginger ale is
SIZIF [17.4K]

Answer:

12 liters of fruit.

88 liters of ginger ale.

Step-by-step explanation:

100 = g + f

130 = 1g + 1.5f 

f = 12 

because u can use elimination by multiplying equation 2 by -1 to cancel out g variable then combine both equations

g = 88

because plug in f's value of 12 to 1st equation then subtract 12 from each side
