Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:

$\dfrac{2}{3}x-\dfrac{1}{5}>1\qquad\text{multiply both sides by 15}\\\\15\!\!\!\!\!\diagup^5\cdot\dfrac{2}{3\!\!\!\!\diagup_1}x-15\!\!\!\!\!\diagup^3\cdot\dfrac{1}{5\!\!\!\!\diagup_1}>15\cdot1\\\\(5)(2x)-3>15\qquad\text{add 3 to both sides}\\\\10x>18\qquad\text{divide both sides by 10}\\\\\boxed{x>1.8}$

Answer:

a. The 99% confidence interval for the population proportion is (0.7872, 0.8610).

D. Yes, we can conclude that the population proportion exceeds 75% because 75% is below the lowest believable value of the confidence interval.

b. The 99% confidence interval would be wider than a 95% confidence interval.

As the confidence level increases, the width interval increases, as we are requiring more confidence with the same information (there is no new sample). This means that, to be more confident, the only way is to include more values in the interval.

Step-by-step explanation:

We have to calculate a 99% confidence interval for the proportion.

The sample proportion is p=0.8241.

$p=X/n=581/705=0.8241$

The standard error of the proportion is:

$\sigma_p=\sqrt{\dfrac{p(1-p)}{n}}=\sqrt{\dfrac{0.8241*0.1759}{705}}\\\\\\ \sigma_p=\sqrt{0.000206}=0.0143$

The critical z-value for a 99% confidence interval is z=2.5758.

The margin of error (MOE) can be calculated as:

$MOE=z\cdot \sigma_p=2.5758 \cdot 0.0143=0.0369$

Then, the lower and upper bounds of the confidence interval are:

$LL=p-z \cdot \sigma_p = 0.8241-0.0369=0.7872\\\\UL=p+z \cdot \sigma_p = 0.8241+0.0369=0.8610$

The 99% confidence interval for the population proportion is (0.7872, 0.8610).

We can conclude that there is, at least, 99% chances that the true proportion is higher than 0.7872. So there is at least 99% chances that the population proportion is higher than 0.75.
