Arthur is conducting a study on the preferred study options of students from East County College. He randomly selected 32 studen

ts from the college, and found that 25% of those surveyed preferred studying abroad. Assuming a 95% confidence level, which of the following statements holds true?
A. As the sample size is too small, the margin of error cannot be trusted.
B. As the sample size is too small, the margin of error is ±0.15.
C. As the sample size is appropriately large, the margin of error is ±0.178.
D. As the sample size is appropriately large, the margin of error is ±0.15.

The sample size of the confidence interval test of a proportion is considered appropriately large if np and n(1 - p) > 5.

<span>Given that Arthur is conducting a study on the preferred study options of students from East County College and that 25% of those surveyed preferred studying abroad. Thus, p = 25% = 0.25 and 1 - 0.25 = 0.75

np = 32(0.25) = 8

n(1 - p) = 32(0.75) = 24

Thus, the sample size is appropriately large.

The margin of error is given by:

</span>\pm z_{ \alpha /2} \sqrt{ \frac{p(1-p)}{n} }
<span>
The </span>z_{ \alpha /2} for 95% confidence interval is 1.96

Thus, the margin of error is given by:

\pm1.96 \sqrt{ \frac{0.25(1-0.25)}{32} } =\pm1.96 \sqrt{\frac{0.25(0.75)}{32}}  \\  \\ =\pm1.96 \sqrt{ \frac{0.1875}{32} } =\pm1.96 \sqrt{0.005859375}  \\  \\ =\pm1.96(0.0765)=\pm0.15

Therefore, the statement that holds true is "a<span>s the sample size is appropriately large, the margin of error is ±0.15".</span>

The following two-way table describes student's after school activites. Find the probability that a randomly selected student is
stiv31 [10]

The probability that a randomly selected student is in music/drama is 25%

<h3>How to determine the probability?</h3>

From the table, we have the following values

Music/Drama = 7 + 13 + 5 = 25

Total = (20 + 20 + 25 + 7 + 13 + 5 + 3 + 2 + 5) = 100

The probability is then calculated as:
P = Music/Drama / Total

So, we have:

P = 25/100

Express as percentage

P = 25%

Hence, the probability that a randomly selected student is in music/drama is 25%

11. What is the value of x in the figure at the right? (Examples 3 and 4)
natka813 [3]

Answer:

x = 11

Step-by-step explanation:

  • Vertically opposite angles are equal
  • Angles around a point add up to 360°

Therefore, 15x + 15x + 15 + 15 = 360

\implies 30x+30=360

\implies 30x=330

\implies x=11
