A human resource manager wants to see if there is a difference in the proportion of minority applicants who get the job and the

proportion of Caucasian applicants who get the job. After reviewing the records, she came up with the following confidence interval for the difference between the proportions: [ − 0.23 , − 0.15 ] . The sample mean difference was -0.19. The error bound is defined by: Right Endpoint - Sample Mean Difference Find the error bound.

Answer:

Error Bound = 0.04

Step-by-step explanation:

Whenever we want to estimate parameter from a subset (or sample) of the population, we need to considerate that your estimation won't be a 100% precise, in other words, the process will have a random component that prevents us from always making the exact decision.

With that in mind, the objective of a confidence interval is to give us a better insight of where we expect to find the "true" value of the parameter with a certain degree of certainty.

The estivamative of the true difference between proportions was -0.19 and the confidence interval was [-0.23 ; -0.15].

The question also defines the error bound, as the right endpoint of the confidence interval minus the sample mean difference, so it's pretty straight foward:

Error Bound = -0.15 -(-0.19) = -0.15 + 0.19 = 0.04

The interpretation of this would be that we expect that the estimative for the difference of proportions would deviate from the "true" difference about \pm 0.04 or 4%.

Whats the awnser to this question
horsena [70]
The sum of the angles of a triangle is 180º.
We have three angles:
∠yxz=3x+5
∠xzy=180º-(8x-14)
∠xyz=4x

Therefore:
(3x+5º) + [180º-(8x-14º)]+(4x)=180º
3x-8x+4x=180º-5º-14º-180º
-x=-19º
x=19º

∠yxz=3x+5º =3(19º)+5º=62º
∠xzy=180º-(8x-14)=180º-(8(19º)-14)=42º
∠xyz=4x=4(19º)=76º

Answer:  m∠yxz= 62º.

What is the range of the function below:<br> Let a(x)=x+2 such that x is a positive integer.
liubo4ka [24]
So all positive integers is the domain (the number  you can use)

and the range (the numbers you get when you put the numbers in the domain in) is all positive integers more than 2

Find the value of x if g(x) = - 18 for g(x) = 2x - 8
nalin [4]

Hi there!

\large\boxed{x = -5}

Find the value of 8 by substituting in -18 for g(x):

-18 = 2x - 8

Add 8 to both sides:

-10 = 2x

Divide both sides by 2:

-10/2 = 2x/2

x = -5
