A 2011 Gallup Poll found that 76% of Americans believe that high achieving high school students should be recruited to become te

achers. This poll was based on a random sample of 1002 Americans. Find a 90% confidence interval for the proportion of Americans who would agree with this. Interpret your interval in this context. Explain what “90% confidence” means. Do these data refute a pundit’s claim that 2 / 3 of Americans believe this statement? Explain.

Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:

Let p be the proportion of Americans who believe that high achieving high school students should be recruited to become teachers

Given that p = 0.76 and q = 1-p =0.24

Std error for proportion= \sqrt{\frac{pq}{n} } \\=0.0135

For 90% confidence interval we have

0.76±Margin of error

= 0.76±1.645(0.0135)

=0.76±0.0222

thus confidence interval

= (0.7378, 0.7822)

This means we are 90% confidence for randomly selected samples of large size, proportion will fall within this interval

Since proportion lower bound is 73.78% we can say that pundit claim of 2/3 is correct.

In ΔUVW, the measure of ∠W=90°, UV = 6.2 feet, and WU = 1.2 feet. Find the measure of ∠V to the nearest tenth of a degree.
Crazy boy [7]

Answer:

m<V = 11.2 degrees

Step-by-step explanation:

In ΔUVW, the measure of ∠W=90°, UV = 6.2 feet, and WU = 1.2 feet.

From the triangle;

UV = hypotenuse = 6.2feet

WU = opposite = 1.2feet

Required

m<V

Using the SOH CAH TOA identity

sin m<V = opp/hyp

sin m<V = WU/UV

sin m<V = 1.2/6.2

sin m<V = 0.1936

m<V = arcsin(0.1936)

m<V = 11.16

m<V = 11.2 degrees ((to the nearest tenth of a degree)

Aisha wants to paint the four walls of her living room. Each wall is 2.6 m high and 3.5 m long. One wall has a door of 2.2 m by
Snowcat [4.5K]

Answer:

£22

Step-by-step explanation:

Area to be painted

4walls - door

a = 4(2.6 * 3.5) - 2.2 * 0.8

a = 34.64 m²

Paint needed

p = 34.64 / 8

p = 4.33

Must round up

p = 5 liters

Tins needed

t = 5/2

t = 2.5

must round up

t = 3

Cost

since 1 is free with 2 will pay for 2

c = 11 * 2

c = 22
