Let p be the proportion. Let c be the given confidence level , n be the sample size.

Given: p=0.3, n=1180, c=0.99

The formula to find the Margin of error is

ME = z _{\alpha/2}  \sqrt{\frac{p*(1-p)}{n}}

Where z (α/2) is critical value of z.

P(Z < z) = α/2

where α/2 = (1- 0.99) /2 = 0.005

P(Z < z) = 0.005

So in z score table look for probability exactly or close to 0.005 . There is no exact 0.005 probability value in z score table. However there two close values 0.0051 and 0.0049 . It means our required 0.005 value lies between these two probability values.

The z score corresponding to 0.0051 is -2.57 and 0.0049 is -2.58. So the required z score will be average of -2.57 and -2.58

(-2.57) + (-2.58) = -5.15

-5.15/2 = -2.575

For computing margin of error consider positive z score value which is 2.575

The margin of error will be

ME = z _{\alpha/2}  \sqrt{\frac{p*(1-p)}{n}}

= 2.575  \sqrt{\frac{0.30*(1-0.3)}{1180}}

= 2.575 * 0.0133

ME = 0.0342

The margin of error is 0.0342

bearhunter [10]

Answer:

<em>Hello, </em><u><em>Your answer will be  "12.5"</em></u>

Step-by-step explanation:

To write 50/4 as a decimal you have to divide numerator by the denominator of the fraction.

We divide now 50 by 4 what we write down as 50/4 and we get 12.5<em> Hope That Helps!</em>

Help plese.........ooj
Tatiana [17]
The answer is 6. You can find slope by using the slope formula: M= y1 - y2 / x1 - x2. In this case you can choose any two points from the table. I chose the second two points. the equation would then be (7-1) / (2-1). It would then be 6/1 or 6.
Hope this helped(:
