Answer:

The value of <em>α</em> is 0.05.

Step-by-step explanation:

A poll of 1000 adults was conducted to determine their favorite pie.

The poll result states that among the 1000 ​respondents, 14 ​% chose chocolate​ pie, and the margin of error was given as plus or minus 3 percentage points.

\hat p=\text{Sample Proportion of adults who chose chocolate pie} = 0.14\\\hat q=\text{Sample Proportion of adults who did not chose chocolate pie}\\=1-\hat p\\=0.86\\n=\text{Sample size}=1000\\E=\text{Margin of Error}=0.03\\p=\text{Population Proportion of adults who chose chocolate pie}

The confidence level is 95%.

Determine the value of significance level, <em>α</em> as follows:

\text{Confidence Level}=(1-\alpha)\%\\\\95\%=(1-\alpha)\%\\\\0.95=(1-\alpha)\\\\\alpha=1-0.95\\\\\alpha=0.05

Thus, the value of <em>α</em> is 0.05.

Find the distance between M(-1,-10) and P(-12,-3) * Round to the nearest tenth.
DedPeter [7]

Answer:

13.0 units

Step-by-step explanation:

To find the distance between two points, we use the formula

d = sqrt( (y2-y1)^2+ (x2-x1)^2)

   sqrt((-3--10)^2 + (-12--1)^2)

   sqrt( (-3+10)^2 + (-12+1)^2)

   sqrt( (7^2  + (-11)^2)

  sqrt( 49+121)

  sqrt( 170)

13.038

Rounding to the nearest tenth
