Hello :
<span>f(x)=x²+4x-5
</span><span>The axis of symmetry for a function in the form f(x)=x^2+4x-5 is x=-2 :
</span>f(x) = (x+2)² + b
f(x) x²+4x+4+b= x² +4x-5
4+b= -5
b = -9
the vertex is : (2 , -9)

The probability that the sample proportion is within ± 0.02 of the population proportion is 0.3328

<h3>How to determine the probability?</h3>

The given parameters are:

Sample size, n = 100
Population proportion, p = 82%

Start by calculating the mean:

$\mu = np$

$\mu = 100 * 82\%$

$\mu = 82$

Calculate the standard deviation:

$\sigma = \sqrt{\mu(1 - p)$

$\sigma = \sqrt{82 * (1 - 82\%)$

$\sigma = 3.84$

Within ± 0.02 of the population proportion are:

$x_{min} = 82 * (1 - 0.02) = 80.38$

$x_{max} = 82 * (1 + 0.02) = 83.64$

Calculate the z-scores at these points using:

$z = \frac{x - \mu}{\sigma}$

So, we have:

$z_1 = \frac{80.36 - 82}{3.84} = -0.43$

$z_2 = \frac{83.64 - 82}{3.84} = 0.43$

The probability is then represented as:

P(x ± 0.02) = P(-0.43 < z < 0.43)

Using the z table of probabilities, we have:

P(x ± 0.02) = 0.3328

Hence, the probability that the sample proportion is within ± 0.02 of the population proportion is 0.3328
