Answer: 0.05

Step-by-step explanation:

  • Sampling error is the error occurs by considering sample for study instead of entire population.

Given : The proportion of items in a population that possess a specific attribute is known to be 0.45.

Sample size : n= 100

Sample proportion of items in a population that possess a specific attribute : \hat{p}=0.48

Now, the formula to find the sampling error :

\text{Sampling error} =\sqrt{\dfrac{\hat{p}(1-\hat{p})}{n}}

\text{Sampling error} =\sqrt{\dfrac{0.48(1-0.48)}{100}}

=\sqrt{\dfrac{0.48(0.52)}{100}}\\\\=\sqrt{0.002496}\approx0.05

Hence, the sampling​ error =0.05

kari74 [83]

Answer:

\boxed{\boxed{\sf x=-6}}

Step-by-step explanation:

\sf \cfrac{9-x}{5}=3

\sf \cfrac{5\left(9-x\right)}{5}=3\times \:5

\sf 9-x=15

\sf 9-x-9=15-9

\sf -x=6

\sf \cfrac{-x}{-1}=\cfrac{6}{-1}

\sf x=-6

75 POINTS IF U GET THIS RIGHT !!!!!Every June 1, an ecologist takes a census of the number of wrens in a state park. She noticed
RUDIKE [14]

Answer:

In 2009

Step-by-step explanation:

If the wren population is going down by 40% each year, that means the following year's population is just 60% of what was in the previous year. This means that what we have to do is multiply the previous year's number by 0.6 to get the current year's population. If we take the data from 2004 as 100%, we have the following numbers:

2004 = 100%

2005 = 60 % (100 * .6)

2006 = 36 % (60 * .6)

2007 = 21.6 % (36 * .6)

2008 = 12.96 % (21.6 * .6)

2009 = 7.776% (12.96 * .6)

This means that 2009 will show that the wren population is less than 10% (7.776%) than what it was in the year 2004.

I hope this helps! :D

Answer:

The margin of error at 90% confidence is 0.5133 gram.

Step-by-step explanation:

Margin of error (E) = (critical value × sample standard deviation) ÷ sqrt(n)

sample standard deviation = 1.5 grams

confidence level = 90% = 0.9

significance level = 1 - C = 1 - 0.9 = 0.1 = 10%

n (sample size) = 25

degree of freedom = n - 1 = 25 - 1 = 24

critical value (t) corresponding to 24 degrees of freedom and 10% significance level is 1.711

E = (1.711×1.5) ÷ sqrt(25) = 2.5665 ÷ 5 = 0.5133 gram
