According to a study conducted by the Gallup Organization, the the proportion of Americans who are afraid to fly is 0.10. A rand

Answer: 0.1457

Step-by-step explanation:

Let p be the population proportion.

Given: The proportion of Americans who are afraid to fly is 0.10.

i.e. p= 0.10

Sample size : n= 1100

Sample proportion of Americans who are afraid to fly =\hat{p}=\dfrac{121}{1100}=0.11

We assume that the population is normally distributed

Now, the probability that the sample proportion is more than 0.11:

P(\hat{p}>0.11)=P(\dfrac{\hat{p}-p}{\sqrt{\dfrac{p(1-p)}{n}}}>\dfrac{0.11-0.10}{\sqrt{\dfrac{0.10(0.90)}{1100}}})\\\\=P(z>\dfrac{0.01}{0.0090453})\ \ \ [\because z=\dfrac{\hat{p}-p}{\sqrt{\dfrac{p(1-p)}{n}}} ]\\\\=P(z>1.1055)\\\\=1-P(z\leq1.055)\\\\=1-0.8543=0.1457\ \ \ [\text{using z-table}]

Hence, the probability that the sample proportion is more than 0.11 = 0.1457

Which equations and/or functions represent the graphed line? Select three options.
Zarrin [17]

Answer:

f(x) = 0.5x + 2

f(x) = 1/2x + 2

y - 3 = 1/2(x - 2)

y - 1 = 0.5(x + 2)

Step-by-step explanation:

In the figure attached, the graphed line is shown.

The missing options are:

<em>f(x) = 0.2x - 4 </em>

<em>f(x) = 0.5x + 2  </em>

<em> f(x) = 1/2x + 2 </em>

<em> y – 3 = 1/2(x – 2) </em>

<em> y – 1 = 0.5(x + 2)</em>

From the picture, we can see that points (0, 2) and (2, 3) are on the line. Then, the slope of the line is:

m = (3 - 2)/(2 - 0) = 1/2 = 0.5

The y-intercept is (0, 2), or b = 2

Therefore, in the slope y-intercept form, the equation is:

f(x) = mx + b

f(x) = 1/2x + 2 = 0.5x + 2

In the point-slope form, the equations is:

y - y1 = m(x - x1)

y - 3 = 1/2(x - 2)

Using point (-2, 1), in the point-slope form, the equation is:

y - y1 = m(x - x1)

y - 1 = 0.5(x + 2)
