Answer:

Second step x( x +5 ) -8 (x+ 5 ) in process of factoring .

Step-by-step explanation:

Given : Trinomial x²-3x-40 .

To find : The second step in the process for factoring .

Solution : We have x²-3x-40 .

On factoring x²+ 5x - 8x - 40 .

Taking common x from first two terms and -8 from last two terms.

x( x +5 ) -8 (x+ 5 ) .

Therefore , Second step x( x +5 ) -8 (x+ 5 ) in process of factoring .

I think it's to find the sum of the factors of −40.

Hope this helps !

A survey of 200 students is selected randomly on a large university campus. They are asked if they use a laptop in class to take

Lina20 [59]

Answer:

The 95% confidence interval for the true proportion of university students who use laptop in class to take notes is (0.2839, 0.4161).

Step-by-step explanation:

The (1 - α)% confidence interval for population proportion P is:

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

The information provided is:

x = number of students who responded as"yes" = 70

n = sample size = 200

Confidence level = 95%

The formula to compute the sample proportion is:

$p=\frac{x}{n}$

The R codes for the construction of the 95% confidence interval is:

> x=70

> n=200

> p=x/n

> p

[1] 0.35

> s=sqrt((p*(1-p))/n)

> s

[1] 0.03372684

> E=qnorm(0.975)*s

> lower=p-E

> upper=p+E

> lower

[1] 0.2838966

> upper

[1] 0.4161034

Thus, the 95% confidence interval for the true proportion of university students who use laptop in class to take notes is (0.2839, 0.4161).
