Express your length and width as algebraic expressions:

width = x

length = 4x

Use the formula for the perimeter of a rectangle to solve for x:

perimeter = 2(length) + 2(width)

50 = 2(4x) + 2(x)

50 = 8x + 2x

50 = 10x

5 = x

The width (x) is 5 feet and the length (4x) is 20 feet.

A survey found that 89% of a random sample of 1024 American adults approved of cloning endangered animals. Find the margin of er

Kobotan [32]

Answer:

The margin of error for the survey is 0.016

Step-by-step explanation:

We are given the following in the question:

Sample size, n = 1024

Sample proportion:

$\hat{p} = 89\% = 0.89$

We have to find the margin of error associated with a 90% Confidence interval.

Formula for margin of error:

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

$z_{critical}\text{ at}~\alpha_{0.10} = 1.64$

Putting the values, we get:

$M.E = 1.64\times (\sqrt{\dfrac{0.89(1-0.89)}{1024}})\\\\M.E=0.016$

Thus, the margin of error for the survey is 0.016
