5 0

Answer: 114

Step-by-step explanation:

Let the number be y

35% of y = 40

35/100 × y = 40

35y/40 = 100

Cross multiply

35y = 100×40

35y= 4000

y= 4000/35

y= 114.29

The number is 114.29

A Rasmussen Reports survey of 1,000 US adults found that 42% believe raising the minimum wage will help the economy. Construct a

Answer:

(0.3798, 0.4602)

Step-by-step explanation:

Let p be the true proportion of US adults who believe raising the minimum wage will help the economy. A point estimate for p is $\hat{p}=0.42$ and a good aproximation (because we have a large sample) for the standard deviation of $\hat{p}$ is $\sqrt{\hat{p}(1-\hat{p})/n}=\sqrt{0.42(0.58)/1000}=0.0156$ . Therefore, a 99% confidence interval for p is given by $\hat{p}\pm z_{\alpha/2}\sqrt{\frac{\hat{p}(1-\hat{p})}{n}}$ where $\alpha=0.01$ and $z_{\alpha/2}$ is the $\alpha/2$ th quantile of the standard normal distribution, so we have, $0.42\pm z_{0.005}0.0156$ , i.e., $0.42\pm(-2.5758)(0.0156)$ or equivalently (0.3798, 0.4602).
