Answer:

0.5375

Step-by-step explanation:

The point estimate of  proportion of all Americans who are in favor of outlawing cheese can be computed as

p=x/n

Here. x is the number of favorable outcomes and n is sample size.

We are given that x=2150 and n=4000, So,

p=2150/4000

p=0.5375.

Thus, the point estimate of  proportion of all Americans who are in favor of outlawing cheese is 0.5375.

Two different lines lie in the same plane.
nikitadnepr [17]

Answer:

Two lines, both in the same plane, that never intersect are called parallel lines. Parallel lines remain the same distance apart at all times. The symbol // is used to denote parallel lines.

how to prove that two lines are equal: If two lines are cut by a transversal and the alternate exterior angles are equal, then the two lines are parallel. Angles can be equal or congruent; you can replace the word "equal" in both theorems with "congruent" without affecting the theorem. So if ∠B and ∠L are equal (or congruent), the lines are parallel.                                 therefore the answer is E. The two lines are everywhere equidistant.

the ratio of men and women in a certain factory is 3 to 4. there are 198 men. How many workers are there?
LUCKY_DIMON [66]

3 men

4 women

7 total


3 men/ 7 total = 198 men/ x total

using cross products

3*x = 7 * 198

divide each side by 3

x = 7*198/3

x = 462

There are 462 workers


If you mean 3 men and 1 women for a total of 4 workers when you state a  ratio of men and women in a certain factory is 3 to 4.

3/4 =198/x

Using cross products

3x = 4* 198

Divide each side by 3

3x/3 = 4*198/3

x =264

264 workers


It all depends on how you define ratio of men and women in a certain factory is 3 to 4.   This is incorrect phrasing and I took it to be men to women.   You cannot have a ratio of men and women.

PETS Becky wants to buy some fish for her aquarium. She has $20 to spend and the fish cost $2.50 each. Write and solve an inequa
Vilka [71]
To start, you want to determine the inequality. You can do this by setting the number of buying n fish to be less than or equal to her current amount of money, being as it can't go over or she wouldn't be able to afford the fish. This inequality would be written so her amount of money (20) would be greater than or equal to the cost of n fish (2.5n), which would then look as such: 20≥2.5n. To solve this inequality, just solve for n by dividing both sides by 2.5, giving you 8≥n. This would mean that Becky can afford to buy up to 8 fish.
