(b) What is the variable of interest in this study? ls it qualitative or quantitative?
(c) Based on the results of this survey, obtain a point estimate for the proportion of adults 19 years of age or older who bring their cell phone every trip to the bathroom.
(d) Explain why the point estimate found in part (c) is a statistic. Explain why it is a random variable. What is the source of variability in the random variable?
(e) Construct and interpret a 95% confidence interval for the population proportion of adults 19 years of age or older who bring their cell phone every trip to the bathroom.

Answer: kindly check explanation

Step-by-step explanation:

A) The sample is a fraction of the total population used in the study.

The sample is 1000 19 years of age or older U.S adult.

The population : all U.S adults aged 19 or older.

B.) Confession about bringing cell phone to the bathroom and it is a qualitative variable

C.) point estimate (p) :

Total number of sample = 1000

Number who confessed to bring cellphone = 241

p = 241/ 1000

= 241/1000 = 0.241

D.) The point estimate was deduced from the sample information and not the population. Random selection because selection is unbiased.

E.) 95% confidence interval (CI)

95% CI = (1 - 0.95) = 0.05

For a two-tailed test : 0.05 / 2 = 0.025

Z - score = 1.96

Error : (√[p(1 - p) / n])*z

1.96 * √0.241(1-0.241)/1000

1.96* √0.000182919

1.96 * 0.0135247

= 0.0265085

Boundary :

(0.241 - 0.0265085), (0.241 + 0.0265085)

(0.2144915, 0.2675085)

F) The sample can be said to be representative of the total population since the sampling was performed and participants were chosen at random.

Given matrices S and T below, which statement is true?
harina [27]
The matrices are
S =(4 11                           T= ( -8 11
      -3  -8)                                 3  4 )
Inverse of a matrix is a matrix derived from another matrix such that if you pre- multiply it with the original matrix you get a unit matrix.
if we multiply S and T
 ST will be 
        ( 4 11    ×      (-8 11   = ( 1 0
          -3 -8)           -3 -4)         0 1)
and also TS
          ( -8 11      ×     (4 11  = ( 1 0
             -3 -4)            -3 -8)       0 1)
therefore, matrices S and T are inverses of each other because ST = TS= I
