construct a 90% confidence interval of the population proportion using the giver information x=74 n=150
FrozenT [24]

Answer:

The 90% confidence interval of the population proportion is (0.43, 0.56).

Step-by-step explanation:

The (1 - <em>α</em>)% confidence interval for population proportion <em>p</em> is:

CI=\hat p\pm z_{\alpha/2}\ \sqrt{\frac{\hat p(1-\hat p)}{n}}

The information provided is:

<em>X</em> = 74

<em>n</em> = 150

Confidence level = 90%

Compute the value of sample proportion as follows:

\hat p=\frac{X}{n}=\frac{74}{150}=0.493

Compute the critical value of <em>z</em> for 90% confidence level as follows:

z_{\alpha/2}=z_{0.10/2}=z_{0.05}=1.645

*Use a <em>z</em>-table.

Compute the 90% confidence interval of the population proportion as follows:

CI=\hat p\pm z_{\alpha/2}\ \sqrt{\frac{\hat p(1-\hat p)}{n}}

     =0.493\pm 1.645\times \sqrt{\frac{0.493(1-0.493)}{150}}\\\\=0.493\pm 0.0672\\\\=(0.4258,\ 0.5602)\\\\\approx (0.43,\ 0.56)

Thus, the 90% confidence interval of the population proportion is (0.43, 0.56).

Choose the equation below that represents the line passing through the point (2, -5) with a slope of -3.
mash [69]
The point-slope form: y-y_0=m(x-x_0)

m=-3;\ (2;-5)\to x_0=2;\ y_0=-5

subtitute

y-(-5)=-3(x-2)\\\\y+5=-3x+6\ \ \ \ \ |subtract\ 5\ from\ both\ sides\\\\\boxed{y=-3x+1}
