A simple random sample of size n equals 200 individuals who are currently employed is asked if they work at home at least once p

er week. Of the 200 employed individuals​ surveyed, 41 responded that they did work at home at least once per week. Construct a​ 99% confidence interval for the population proportion of employed individuals who work at home at least once per week.

Answer: 99% of confidence interval for the population proportion of employed individuals who work at home at-least once per week

//0.20113,0.20887[/tex]

Step-by-step explanation:

<u>step 1:-</u>

Given sample  size n=200

of the 200 employed individuals surveyed 41 responded that they did work at home at least once per week

 Population proportion of employed individuals who work at home at least once per week  P = \frac{x}{n} =\frac{41}{200} =0.205

Q=1-P= 1-0.205 = 0.705

<u>step 2:-</u>

Now  \sqrt{\frac{P Q}{n} } =\sqrt{\frac{(0.205)(0.705)}{200} }

=0.0015

<u>step 3:-</u>

<u>Confidence intervals</u>

<u>using formula</u>

(P  -  Z_∝} \sqrt{\frac{P Q}{n},} (P  +  Z_∝} \sqrt{\frac{P Q}{n},

(0.205-2.58(0.0015),0.205+2.58(0.0015)\\0.20113,0.20887

=0.20113,0.20887[/tex]

<u>conclusion:</u>-

99% of confidence interval for the population proportion of employed individuals who work at home at-least once per week

//0.20113,0.20887[/tex]

The equation of a circle is ( x - 3) 2 + ( y + 2) 2 = 25. The point (8, -2) is on the circle.
Shtirlitz [24]

Answer:

x =8 is the equation of the tangent.

Step-by-step explanation:

Here the equation of the given circle is: (x-3)^{2}  + (y+2)^{2}  = 25

Now, comparing it with the general equation of circle: (x-h)^{2}  + (y -k)^{2}  = r^2

we get the central coordinates (h,k)  = (3,-2)

So, the slope of the line joining center and (8, -2) = \frac{-2 -(-2)}{8-3} = \frac{0}{5} = 0

Since the slope of line = 0, line is parallel to x axis.

Now, as tangent and the line is perpendicular to each other

⇒Slope of the tangent = -1/ slope of the line = \frac{-1}{0}

Now, by point slope formula: the equation of the tangent is

(y-y0)  = m (x-x0)

or, (y +2) = \frac{-1}{0} (x -8)

or x =8 is the equation of the tangent.

In a certain manufacturing process, it is known that, on average, 1 in every 100 items is defective.
Rashid [163]

Answer:

A. 0.009899

B. 0.005624

Step-by-step explanation:

Data:

Let the probability that an item is defective = \frac{1}{100}

The probability that the item is not defective = \frac{99}{100}

The probability that the fifth item is defective = \frac{1}{100}* \frac{98}{99}

                                                                            = 0.009899

Probability that one in 5 items is defective  = 0.005624

What is the equation of a line with slope 4 and passes through point (4,2)?
bezimeni [28]

Answer:

y = 4x - 14

Step-by-step explanation:

Use point-slope form and substitute the values.

y - 2 = 4(x - 4)

y - 2 = 4x - 16

y = 4x - 14
