Answer:

Confidence limit = [52.8%, 75.2%]

Step-by-step explanation:

P=\frac{45}{70}= 0.64

(1-P)=1-0.64=0.36

n= 70

P ± z \sqrt{\frac{P(1-P)}{n} }

where the value z will be taken from the z-table for 95% confidence interval

1-0.95= 0.05/2= 0.025

0.95+0.025= 0.0975

From the z-table the value of z corresponding to 0.0975 is 1.96

0.64 ± 1.96 \sqrt{\frac{0.64*0.36}{70} }

0.64 ± 1.96 (0.057)

0.64 ± 0.112

64%% ± 11.2%

so the confidence interval is

64+11.2=75.2%

64-11.2=52.8%

[52.8, 75.2]

A taste test asks people from Texas and California which pasta they prefer,
melamori03 [73]

Answer:

Yes, they are independent because P(Texas) ≈ 0.45 and P(Texas/brand A) ≈ 0.45.

Step-by-step explanation:

We are given that a taste test asks people from Texas and California which pasta they prefer,  brand A or brand B. The table is given in the question.

A person is randomly selected from those tested.

And we have find that are being from Texas and preferring brand A independent events or not.

Firstly, we know that these two events will be independent when;

               P(Texas) = P(Texas/brand A)

Now, P(Texas) =  \frac{\text{Number of people from Texas}}{\text{Total number of people}}

                        =  \frac{125}{275}  ≈ 0.45

Also,  P(Texas/brand A)  =  \frac{P(Texas \bigcap Brand A)}{P(Brand A)}

                                        =  \frac{\text{Number of people from Texas and preferring brand A}}{\text{Number of people preferring brand A}}

                                        =  \frac{80}{176}  ≈ 0.45

Therefore, being from Texas and preferring brand A are independent events because P(Texas) ≈ 0.45 and P(Texas/brand A) ≈ 0.45.

Which function describes the arithmetic sequence shown?<br> 1,-2, -5, -8, -11, ...
antiseptic1488 [7]

Answer:

a(n)=1+(n-1)(-3)

Step-by-step explanation:

Notice there's a common difference of d=-3.

If we use the formula a(n)=a1+(n-1)d to find the nth term given the first term and the common difference, we will see that the function that describes the arithmetic sequence as a(n)=1+(n-1)(-3)
