Eric is studying people's typing habits. He surveyed 525 people and asked whether they leave one space or two spaces after a per

iod when typing. 440 people responded that they leave one space. Create a 90% confidence interval for the proportion of people who leave one space after a period. Round your results to four decimal places.

Answer: (0.8115, 0.8645)

Step-by-step explanation:

Let p be the proportion of people who leave one space after a period.

Given:  Sample size : n= 525

Number of people responded that they leave one space. =440

i.e. sample proportion: \hat{p}=\dfrac{440}{525}\approx0.838

z-score for 90% confidence level : 1.645

Formula to find the confidence interval :

\hat{p}\pm z^*\sqrt{\dfrac{\hat{p}(1-\hat{p})}{n}}

0.838\pm (1.645)\sqrt{\dfrac{0.838(1-0.838)}{525}}\\\\=0.838\pm (1.645)\sqrt{0.00025858285}\\\\=0.838\pm (1.645)(0.01608)\\\\= 0.838\pm0.0265\\\\=(0.838-0.0265,\ 0.838+0.0265)\\\\=(0.8115,\ 0.8645)

Hence, a 90% confidence interval for the proportion of people who leave one space after a period: (0.8115, 0.8645)

Calls from a call box are charged per minute at one rate for the five minutes, then a different rate for each additional minute.
nirvana33 [79]

Answer:

  c.  $0.75 per minute at one rate for the first 5 minutes and $0.25 per minute thereafter

Step-by-step explanation:

The last 5 minutes of the 12-minute call cost ...

  $5.50 -4.25 = $1.25

so the per-minute rate at that time is ...

  $1.25/(5 min) = $0.25/min . . . . . . . . matches choice C only

__

You know the answer at this point, but if you want to check the rate for the first 5 minutes, you can subtract 2 minutes from the 7-minute call to find that ...

  The first 5 minutes cost $4.25 - 2·0.25 = $3.75, so are charged at ...

     $3.75/(5 min) = $0.75/min . . . . . . . matches choice C
