Answer: 278.30 pounds (if the gasoline does not contain ethanol)

317.12 pounds (if the gasoline does contain ethanol)

Step-by-step explanation:

If the truck averages 12 miles per gallon, then in 170 miles it consumes:

170mi/12mi = 14.17 gallons.

We know that for one gallon consumed, the carbon dioxide emitted into the atmosphere is 19.64 pounds. (assuming it does not contain ethanol)

Then for 14.17 gallons consumed, we have a emission of:

14.17*19.64 pounds = 278.30 pounds

I the gasoline contains ethanlol, for a gallon the emiision is around  22.38 pounds.

In this case the total emission is:

14.17*22.38 pounds = 317.12 pounds

In a survey of 2957 adults, 1455 say hey have started paying bills online in the least year construct a 99% confidence interval
Vikki [24]

Answer: 0.49 ± 0.0237

Step-by-step explanation: A interval of a 99% confidence interval for the population proportion can be found by:

p_{hat} ± z.\sqrt{\frac{p_{hat}(1-p_{hat})}{n} }

p_{hat} is the proportion:

p_{hat} = \frac{1455}{2957}

p_{hat} = 0.49

For a 99% confidence interval, z = 2.576:

0.49 ± 2.576.\sqrt{\frac{0.49(1-0.49)}{2957} }

0.49 ± 2.576.\sqrt{\frac{0.49*0.51}{2957} }

0.49 ± 2.576.(0.0092)

0.49 ± 0.0237

For a <u>99% confidence interval</u>, the proportion will be between 0.4663 and 0.5137 or 0.49 ± 0.0237
