Answer:

c. 0.778 < p < 0.883.

Step-by-step explanation:

The formula for confidence interval for proportion =

p ± z score × √p(1 - p)/n

p = x/n

n = 195, x = 162

z score for 95% confidence Interval = 1.96

p = 162/195

p = 0.8307692308

p ≈ approximately equal to = 0.8308

0.8308 ± 1.96 × √0.8308 × (1 - 0.8308)/195

0.8308 ± 1.96 ×√0.8308 × 0.1692/195

0.8308 ± 1.96 × √0.0007208788

0.8308 ± 1.96 × 0.0268491862

0.8308 ± 0.052624405

Confidence Interval

= 0.8308 - 0.052624405

= 0.778175595

Approximately = 0.778

= 0.8308 + 0.052624405

= 0.883424405

Approximately = p

0.883

Therefore, the confidence interval for this proportion = (0.778, 0.883) or option c. 0.778 < p < 0.883

For which value of x must the expression square root of 19x be further simplified? A. 15. B 21. C 28. D 41
algol [13]
<span>The expression of the square root of 19x must be simplified when x is equal to 28. This is because possible factors of 28 can be seen to be 4 and 7, and 4 is a perfect square. This means it can be pulled outside of the square root when evaluated. The other options include only prime factors that could not be pulled out. (3,5), (3,7), (1,41)
   28 simplifies as such:
 Sqrt(19*28) = Sqrt(19*4*7) = 2*Sqrt(19*7) = 2*Sqrt(133).</span>

At a bargain store.Tanya bought 5 items that each cost the same amount. Tony bought 6 items that each cost the same amount, but
Ray Of Light [21]

(A) For x representing the cost of one of Tanya's items, her total purchase cost 5x. The cost of one of Tony's items is then (x-1.75) and the total of Tony's purchase is 6(x-1.75). The problem statement tells us these are equal values. Your equation is ...

... 5x = 6(x -1.75)

(B) Subtract 5x, simplify and add the opposite of the constant.

... 5x -5x = 6x -6·1.75 -5x

... 0 = x -10.50

... 10.50 = x

(C) 5x = 5·10.50 = 52.50

... 6(x -1.75) = 6·8.75 = 52.50 . . . . . the two purchases are the same value

(D) The individual cost of Tanya's iterms was $10.50. The individual cost of Tony's items was $8.75.

Help!!!! If you wanted to model movements with both of the robot's arms in the air, what function
mixas84 [53]

Answer:

f(x)=x^2

Step-by-step explanation:

if you wanted have a function where both of the robot's arms are in the air the function could be x to the power of any even number such f(x)=x^2, f(x)=x^4, f(x)=x^6, or even f(x)=x^10. And you could still do the same transformations with these equations.

In an effort to estimate the mean of amount spent per customer for dinner at a major Lawrence restaurant, data were collected fo
larisa86 [58]

Answer:

The 99% confidence interval for the population mean is 22.96 to 26.64

Step-by-step explanation:

Consider the provided information,

A sample of 49 customers. Assume a population standard deviation of $5. If the sample mean is $24.80,

The confidence interval if 99%.

Thus, 1-α=0.99

α=0.01

Now we need to determine z_{\frac{\alpha}{2}}=z_{0.005}

Now by using z score table we find that  z_{\frac{\alpha}{2}}=2.58

The boundaries of the confidence interval are:

\mu-z_{\frac{\alpha}{2}}\times \frac{\sigma}{\sqrt{n} }\\24.80-2.58\times \frac{5}{\sqrt{49}}=22.96\\\mu+z_{\frac{\alpha}{2}}\times \frac{\sigma}{\sqrt{n} }\\24.80+2.58\times \frac{5}{\sqrt{49}}=26.64

Hence, the 99% confidence interval for the population mean is 22.96 to 26.64
