4. According to statistics reported on IN-CORP a surprising number of motor vehicles are not covered by insurance. Sample result

s, consistent with the IN-CORP report, showed 46 of 200 vehicles were not covered by insurance. a. What is the point estimate of the proportion of vehicles not covered by insurance? b. Develop a 95% confidence interval for the population proportion.

Answer:

a) 0.23

b) The 95% confidence interval for the population proportion is (0.1717, 0.2883).

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 level of 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}.

Point estimate

The point estimate is:

\pi = \frac{46}{200} = 0.23

95% confidence level

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}} = 0.23 - 1.96\sqrt{\frac{0.23*0.77}{200}} = 0.1717

The upper limit of this interval is:

\pi + z\sqrt{\frac{\pi(1-\pi)}{n}} = 0.23 + 1.96\sqrt{\frac{0.23*0.77}{200}} = 0.2883

The 95% confidence interval for the population proportion is (0.1717, 0.2883).

The first is a. you can rewrite it
\sqrt{x^5} = \sqrt{x^2x^2x} = \sqrt{x^2}\sqrt{x^2}\sqrt{x} = xx\sqrt{x} = x^2\sqrt{x}

the second is d. the only common factor between 20 and 40 that can be taken out is the 4 which becomes a 2, but inside the square roots there is still a 5 and 10, which cannot be combined

the third is c.
\sqrt{36x} + \sqrt{100x} - \sqrt{25x} \\ 6\sqrt{x}+10\sqrt{x}-5\sqrt{x} \\ 11\sqrt{x}

the fourth is d.
add 3 to both sides \sqrt{2x} = 10
then square both sides 2x=100
then divide both sides by 2, x=50

Dan bought 8 shirts and 3 pants. Devonte bought 12 shirts and 5 pants. For each person, write a ratio to represent the number of
shutvik [7]

Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:

Dan bought 8 shirts and 3 pants. This means that the ratio representing the number of shirts to the number of pants that Dan bought is 8/3 = 2.67

Devonte bought 12 shirts and 5 pants. This means that the ratio representing the number of shirts to the number of pants that Devonte bought is 12/5 = 2.4

Therefore, they are not equivalent ratios because the relationship is not exactly the same.
