A survey of 1010 college seniors working towards an undergraduate degree was conducted. each student was asked, "are you plannin

g or not planning to pursue a graduate degree?" of the 1010 surveyed, 658 stated that they were planning to pursue a graduate degree. construct and interpret a 98% confidence interval for the proportion of college seniors who are planning to pursue a graduate degree. (0.612, 0.690); we are 98% confident that the proportion of college seniors who are planning to pursue a graduate degree is between 0.612 and 0.690. (0.621, 0.680); we are 98% confident that the proportion of college seniors who are planning to pursue a graduate degree is between 0.621 and 0.680. (0.616, 0.686); we are 98% confident that the proportion of college seniors who are planning to pursue a graduate degree is between 0.616 and 0.686. (0.620, 0.682); we are 98% confident that the proportion of college seniors who are planning to pursue a graduate degree is between 0.620 and 0.682.

The confidence interval is (0.616, 0.686).

To find the confidence interval, we first find p, the proportion of students:
658/1010 = 0.6515

The confidence interval follows the formula
p\pm z(\sqrt{\frac{p(1-p)}{N}})

To find the z-score associated with this level of confidence:
Convert 98% to a decimal:  98% = 98/100 = 0.98
Subtract from 1:  1-0.98 = 0.02
Divide by 2:  0.02/2 = 0.01
Subtract from 1:  1-0.01 = 0.99

Using a z-table (http://www.z-table.com) we see that this is closer to the z-score 2.33.  

Using our information, we have:
0.6515\pm 2.33(\sqrt{\frac{0.6515(1-0.6515)}{1010}})
\\
\\0.6515\pm 0.0349

This gives us the interval (0.6515-0.0349, 0.6515+0.0349) or (0.616, 0.686).

Answer:

About 525 times.

Step-by-step explanation:

You have a 5 in 8 chance of getting a consonant originally. You should try to find an equal ratio except with 840 as the second number. As of now it's      5/8 = ?/840

8 is a factor of 840 and if you divide 840 by 8 you get 105. If you actually think about it 105/840 would be an equal ratio to 1/8 so you multiply 108 by 5 to get 525.

A sequence is shown below. 4, 8, 16, 32, . . . Which formula can be used to determine the nth term in the sequence? Use the form
zvonat [6]

Answer:

a8 = 512.

Step-by-step explanation:

This is geometric sequence with common ratio r = 2 and first term a1 = 4.

nth term = a1 r^(n-1)

So a8 = 4 2(^8-1)

= 4 * 2^7

= 4*128 = 512.

2. The volume of a cylinder varies jointly with its height and the square of the radius. A 7.85 cubic inch spice container is 2.
Natali [406]

Answer:

Volume=21.195 cubic inch

Step-by-step explanation:

The volume of a cylinder varies jointly with its height and the square of the radius is expressed as

V∝hr^2

Introducing our constant of proportionality,K we have that

V =Khr^2

Given that A 7.85 cubic inch spice container is 2.5 inches tall and has a radius of 1 inch. We have that

V =Khr^2

7.85=K 2.5 X 1^2

K=7.85/2.5 x1

K=3.14

Given that another spice container is 3 inches tall with a radius of 1.5 inches, Volume=?

V =Khr^2

V=3.14 X 3 X 1.5^2

V=21.195 cubic inch

A driveway 18 ft wide and 36 ft. long is to be paved with concrete 3 in. thick. How many cubic yards of concrete are required?
amm1812

Answer:

6 yds^3

Step-by-step explanation:

I find these easiest if you put all of the dimensions into yards and then multiply

18 ft =  6 yds

36 ft = 12 yds

3 in = 3/36 yds    = 1/12 yds     now multiply them together

6 x 12 x 1/12 = 6 yds^3
