They could both be correct, since one could be measuring the width and the other the height. Typically a paper clip has a bigger length than width, so Juan most likely measured the length and Brooke probably measured the width.

A fair spinner has 9 equal sections: 2 red, 3 blue and 4 green.
Alex17521 [72]

Answer:

The Probability of not getting two consecutive reds is 0.9506

Step-by-step explanation:

Number of sections = 9

Number of red sections = 2

Number of blue sections = 3

Number of green sections = 4

Probability of getting two consecutive reds = \frac{2}{9} \times \frac{2}{9}=\frac{4}{81}

So,The Probability of not getting two consecutive reds =1- \frac{4}{81}=\frac{77}{81}=0.9506

Hence The Probability of not getting two consecutive reds is 0.9506

Of 560 samples of seafood purchased from various kinds of food stores in different regions of a country and genetically compared
frutty [35]

Answer:

a) (0.5256,0.5944)  

c) Criticism is invalid

Step-by-step explanation:

We are given the following in the question:

Sample size, n = 560

Proportion of mislabeled = 56%

\hat{p} = 0.56

a) 90% Confidence interval:

\hat{p}\pm z_{stat}\sqrt{\dfrac{\hat{p}(1-\hat{p})}{n}}

z_{critical}\text{ at}~\alpha_{0.05} = \pm 1.64

Putting the values, we get:

0.56\pm 1.64(\sqrt{\dfrac{0.56(1-0.56)}{560}}) = 0.56\pm 0.0344\\\\=(0.5256,0.5944)

b) Interpretation of confidence interval:

We are 90% confident that the true proportion of all seafood in the country that is mislabeled or misidentified is between 0.5256 and 0.5944 that is 52.56% and 59.44%.

c) Validity of criticism

Conditions for validity:

np > 10\\n(1-p)>10

Verification:

560\times 0.56 = 313.6>10\\560(1-0.56) = 246.4>10

Both the conditions are satisfied. This, the criticism is invalid.
