<h3>Answer:</h3>

C). The function is linear because it decreases at a constant rate.

<h3>Step-by-step explanation:</h3>

y changes by -1 every time x changes by +2. When the rate of change is constant, the function is linear.

Answer:

The box to the left will have the equation p(x) = 5x² and the box to the right will have the equation n(x) = $\frac{1}{5} x^{2}$

Step-by-step explanation:

The coefficient of the x² decides how wide or narrow a quadratic graph is. If the coefficient is a fraction of 1, the smaller the fraction the wider the graph gets. If the coefficient is a number bigger than 1, the bigger the number, the narrower the graph gets.

Answer:

a) $0.93 - 1.96\sqrt{\frac{0.93(1-0.93)}{500}}=0.908$

$0.93 + 1.96\sqrt{\frac{0.93(1-0.93)}{500}}=0.952$

The 95% confidence interval would be given by (0.908;0.0.952)

b) $0.21 - 2.58\sqrt{\frac{0.21(1-0.21)}{500}}=0.163$

$0.21 + 2.58\sqrt{\frac{0.21(1-0.21)}{500}}=0.257$

The 99% confidence interval would be given by (0.163;0.0.257)

c) The margin of error for part a is:

$ME= 1.96\sqrt{\frac{0.93(1-0.93)}{500}}=0.0224$

And for part b is:

$ME=2.58\sqrt{\frac{0.21(1-0.21)}{500}}=0.0470$

So then the margin of error is larger for part b.

Step-by-step explanation:

Previous concepts

A confidence interval is "a range of values that’s likely to include a population value with a certain degree of confidence. It is often expressed a % whereby a population means lies between an upper and lower interval".

The margin of error is the range of values below and above the sample statistic in a confidence interval.

Normal distribution, is a "probability distribution that is symmetric about the mean, showing that data near the mean are more frequent in occurrence than data far from the mean".

The population proportion have the following distribution

$p \sim N(p,\sqrt{\frac{p(1-p)}{n}})$

Part a

In order to find the critical value we need to take in count that we are finding the interval for a proportion, so on this case we need to use the z distribution. Since our interval is at 95% of confidence, our significance level would be given by $\alpha=1-0.95=0.05$ and $\alpha/2 =0.025$ . And the critical value would be given by:

$z_{\alpha/2}=-1.96, z_{1-\alpha/2}=1.96$

The confidence interval for the mean is given by the following formula:

$\hat p \pm z_{\alpha/2}\sqrt{\frac{\hat p (1-\hat p)}{n}}$

If we replace the values obtained we got:

$0.93 - 1.96\sqrt{\frac{0.93(1-0.93)}{500}}=0.908$

$0.93 + 1.96\sqrt{\frac{0.93(1-0.93)}{500}}=0.952$

The 95% confidence interval would be given by (0.908;0.0.952)

Part b

In order to find the critical value we need to take in count that we are finding the interval for a proportion, so on this case we need to use the z distribution. Since our interval is at 99% of confidence, our significance level would be given by $\alpha=1-0.99=0.01$ and $\alpha/2 =0.005$ . And the critical value would be given by:

$z_{\alpha/2}=-2.58, z_{1-\alpha/2}=2.58$

The confidence interval for the mean is given by the following formula:

$\hat p \pm z_{\alpha/2}\sqrt{\frac{\hat p (1-\hat p)}{n}}$

If we replace the values obtained we got:

$0.21 - 2.58\sqrt{\frac{0.21(1-0.21)}{500}}=0.163$

$0.21 + 2.58\sqrt{\frac{0.21(1-0.21)}{500}}=0.257$

The 99% confidence interval would be given by (0.163;0.0.257)

Part c

The margin of error for part a is:

$ME= 1.96\sqrt{\frac{0.93(1-0.93)}{500}}=0.0224$

And for part b is:

$ME=2.58\sqrt{\frac{0.21(1-0.21)}{500}}=0.0470$

So then the margin of error is larger for part b.
