Answer:

0.333 - 2.58 \sqrt{\frac{0.333(1-0.333)}{219}}=0.251

0.333 + 2.58 \sqrt{\frac{0.333(1-0.333)}{219}}=0.416

The 99% confidence interval would be given (0.251;0.416).

(25.0 ,41.6)

Step-by-step explanation:

1) Data given and notation  

n=219 represent the random sample taken    

X=73 represent the students that reported that they have at least $1000 of credit card debt.

\hat p=\frac{73}{219}=0.333 estimated proportion of students that reported that they have at least $1000 of credit card debt.

\alpha=0.01 represent the significance level

z would represent the statistic (variable of interest)    

p= population proportion of students that reported that they have at least $1000 of credit card debt.

2) Confidence interval

The confidence interval would be given by this formula

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

For the 99% confidence interval the value of \alpha=1-0.99=0.01 and \alpha/2=0.005, with that value we can find the quantile required for the interval in the normal standard distribution.

z_{\alpha/2}=2.58

And replacing into the confidence interval formula we got:

0.333 - 2.58 \sqrt{\frac{0.333(1-0.333)}{219}}=0.251

0.333 + 2.58 \sqrt{\frac{0.333(1-0.333)}{219}}=0.416

And the 99% confidence interval would be given (0.251;0.416).

We are confident that about 25.1% to 41.6% of students have at least $1000 of credit card debt.

And for this case the most accurate option is:

(25.0 ,41.6)

Craig has a building block in the shape of a rectangular pyramid. A net of which is shown below.
Alex787 [66]

Answer:

the answer is D: 294 sq. cm

Step-by-step explanation:

first you want to split the net into 4 triangles and 1 rectangle

a = 12 cm

b =  6 cm

d = 13 cm

calculate the surface area of the pyramid...

1st find the area of the rectangle base

Rectangle base area

b x a = (6 cm) (12 cm)

= 72 sq. cm

next find the area of the triangle on the left

Left triangle

1/2(b)(d) = 1/2 (6 cm)(13 cm)

= 1/2 (78 sq cm)

= 39 sq. cm

Since all the triangles are congruent (same), you will need to multiply by 2 to get the combined area of the triangle on the left and on the right.

Area of left & right triangles

= 2 (39 sq. cm)

= 78 sq. cm

Find the area of the triangle on the bottom

Bottom triangle area = 1/2 (a)(a)

= 1/2 (12 cm) (12 cm)

= 1/2 (144 sq. cm)

= 72 sq. cm

Since the bottom of the triangle is congruent to the top triangle, multiply that by 2 to get a combined area of the triangle on the bottom and top

Area of top & bottom triangles

2 (72 sq. cm) = 144 sq. cm

Finally...add the area of the 4 triangles to the area of the rectangular base

72 + 78 + 144 = 294 sq. cm

3 + 1 < 10 solve, then graph the solution
ryzh [129]

           3 + 1 < 10

There's no question there, and nothing to solve.  That's a simple statement
which, after simplifying it slightly, says " 4 < 10 ".

A statement with which, I'm sure, we can all agree.
