Answer:

a. p`± z₀.₀₂₅\sqrt{ \frac{p`q`}{n}  

b.0.6 ±  1.96 \sqrt \frac{0.6* 0.4}{1000}  

c. { -1.96 ≤  p`± z₀.₀₂₅\sqrt{ \frac{p`q`}{n}     ≥ 1.96} = 0.95  

Step-by-step explanation:

Here the total number of trials is n= 1000

The number of successes is p` = 600/1000 = 0.6. The q` is 1 - p`= 1- 0.6 = 0.4

The degree of confidence is 95 %  therefore z₀.₀₂₅ = 1.96 ( α/2 = 0.025)

a.  The formula used will be

p`± z₀.₀₂₅\sqrt{ \frac{p`q`}{n}       ( z with the base alpha by 2 (α/2 = 0.025))

b. Putting the values

0.6 ±  1.96 \sqrt \frac{0.6* 0.4}{1000}  

c. Confidence Interval in Interval Notation.

{ -1.96 ≤  p`± z₀.₀₂₅\sqrt{ \frac{p`q`}{n}     ≥ 1.96} = 0.95  

{ -z( base alpha by 2) ≤  p`± z₀.₀₂₅\sqrt{ \frac{p`q`}{n}     ≥ z( base alpha by 2)  } = 1- α

Given that the points (-1, 5) and (2, 1) are vertices of a rectangle with sides parallel to the axes, how much longer is the len
Norma-Jean [14]

Answer:

Correct choice is A

Step-by-step explanation:

Two vertices of the rectangle have coordinates A(-1, 5) and B(2, 1). If rectangle sides are parallel to the axes, then two remaining vertices have coordinates C(-1,1) and D(2,5) (see attached diagram for details).

Find the length and the width:

AC=\sqrt{(-1-(-1))^2+(5-1)^2}=4\ units,\\ \\AD=\sqrt{(2-(-1))^2+(5-5)^2}=3\ units.

Then the length is 1 unit longer than the width.

A yellow ribbon is 56 centimeters long. It is twice as long as a green ribbon. A brown ribbon is 4 times as long as the green ri
Shkiper50 [21]

56 dived by 2 equals 28. 28=green ribbon. Brown ribbon is 4 times as long. 28 times 4 equals 112. The brown ribbon is 112 cm long.

Find the area of the composite figure to the nearest hundredth.
Lyrx [107]

Answer:

745.31

Step-by-step explanation:

1.  12.5^2 * 2 = 312.5

2. (3,14 * 156,25)/2 = 245.31

3.  (30 * 12.5)/2 = 187.5

4. 187.5 + 245.31 + 312.5 = 745.31
