Answer:

Check Explanation.

Step-by-step explanation:

The sample will be a representative of the entire build us in the city.

For a sample size 35, 3 have fire code violations, hence, the proportion of houses with fire code violations = (3/35) = 0.0857 = 8.57 %

The uncertainty in the estimate is given in the form of standard error.

Standard error = √[(p(1-p)/n]

n = sample size = 35, p = 0.0857, 1 - p = 0.9143

Standard error of the sample = √(0.0857×0.9143/35) = 0.1616

In terms of the population, (0.1616/35) = 0.00462

Proportion of buildings with fire code violations = (8.57 ± 0.462) %

Ok, so I'm pretty sure this one is 11.5 I just wanted to make sure with u guys! :)
Furkat [3]

Answer:

C: 23 cm

Step-by-step explanation:

This is the answer because:

1) Area of trapezoid is: (base1 + base2)/2 x height

2) In this case, it is 14 + 8 which is 22. 22/2 is 11.

3) Now we have to do 253/11 which is 23 cm.

Hope this helps! :D
