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

What is the equation of the line? Graph of a line in the coordinate plane through the origin and the point begin ordered pair 1
Margarita [4]

Here the line passes through (0,0) and (1,3).

First we need to find the slope , and for that we need to use the following formula

m=\frac{y_{2}-y_{1}}{x_{2}-x_{1}}

On substituting the values from the point, we will get

m=\frac{3-0}{1-0}=3

Now we will use slope intercept form, which is

y = mx+ b

Where m is the slope and b is the y intercept

And on substituting the values of x and y from the point (1,3) and slope, m = 3, we will get

3 = 3(1)+b

3=3+b

b =0

Substituting the values of m and b in the slope intercept form, we will get

y= 3x

Ksivusya [100]

Step-by-step explanation:

we know,

volume of pyramid = 1/3 × base area × height

so,

→ 1/3 × 120 × 9

→ 40 × 9 = 360 ft

so the volume of the pyramid is 360 ft².

base area = length × slant height

so, 12 × 10 = 120
