<h3>Further explanation</h3>

<u>The Problem:</u>

  • Subtract 4 from \frac{1}{6} of 42.
  • Write an expression to match and then evaluate.

<u>The Process:</u>

Here are some early expressions that need attention.  

  • 1 sixth is \boxed{\frac{1}{6}}
  • 1 sixth of 42 is \boxed{\frac{1}{6} \times 42} or \boxed{\frac{1}{6}} multiply 42.

Let us write an expression to match for subtract 4 from \frac{1}{6} of 42.

\boxed{\boxed{ \ \bigg(\frac{1}{6} \times 42 \bigg) - 4 \ }}

And now we evaluate the expression.

\boxed{ \ = \bigg(\frac{1}{6} \times 42 \bigg) - 4 \ }

We cross out 6 and 42 because they both can be divided.

\boxed{ \ = 7 - 4 \ }

Thus the answer is \boxed{\boxed{ \ 3 \ }}

<u>Notes:</u>

  • Recall that \boxed{\frac{42}{6} \rightarrow 42 \div 6 = 7}
  • Since \boxed{ \ \boxed{7}\boxed{7}\boxed{7}\boxed{7}\boxed{7}\boxed{7} = 42 \ }, then one of six parts of 42 or \boxed{\frac{1}{6} \ of \ 42 \ equal \ to \ 7}
  • Since \boxed{1}\boxed{1}\boxed{1}\boxed{1}\boxed{1}\boxed{1}\boxed{1} = 7, then subtract 4 from 7 equal to 3, that is \boxed{1}\boxed{1}\boxed{1} = 3.

In 2015 as part of the General Social Survey, 1289 randomly selected American adults responded to this question:
Radda [10]

Answer:

B (0.312, 0.364)

Step-by-step explanation:

In a sample with a number n of people surveyed with a probability of a success of \pi, and a confidence interval 1-\alpha, we have the following confidence interval of proportions.

\pi \pm z\sqrt{\frac{\pi(1-\pi)}{n}}

In which

z is the zscore that has a pvalue of 1 - \frac{\alpha}{2}

For this problem, we have that:

1289 randomly selected American adults responded to this question. This means that n = 1289.

Of the respondents, 436 replied that America is doing about the right amount. This means that \pi = \frac{436}{1289} = 0.3382.

Determine a 95% confidence interval for the proportion of all the registered voters who will vote for the Republican Party. ​

So \alpha = 0.05, z is the value of Z that has a pvalue of 1 - \frac{0.05}{2} = 0.975, so z = 1.96.

The lower limit of this interval is:

\pi - z\sqrt{\frac{\pi(1-\pi)}{n}} = 0.3382 - 1.96\sqrt{\frac{0.3382*0.6618}{1289}} = 0.312

The upper limit of this interval is:

\pi + z\sqrt{\frac{\pi(1-\pi)}{n}} = 0.3382 + 1.96\sqrt{\frac{0.3382*0.6618}{1289}} = 0.364

The 95% confidence interval is:

B (0.312, 0.364)
