Answer:

The confidence interval for this proportion = (0.09, 0.13)

Step-by-step explanation:

Confidence Interval for Proportion =

p ± z ×√p(1 - p/n)

p = proportion = x /n

x = 71

n = 635

p = 71/635

p = 0.1118110236

p ≈ 0.1118

z score for 90% confidence interval = 1.645

Confidence Interval =

0.1118 ± 1.645 × √0.1118 (1 - 0.1118)/635

0.1118 ± 1.645 × √0.09930076/635

0.1118 ± 1.645 × √0.0001563791

0.1118 ± 1.645 × 0.0125051629

0.1118 ± 0.020570993

Confidence Interval =

0.1118 - 0.020570993

= 0.091229007

Approximately to the nearest hundredth ≈ 0.09

0.1118 + 0.020570993

= 0.132370993

Approximately to the nearest hundredth = 0.13

Therefore, the confidence interval for this proportion = (0.09, 0.13)

Roberto and Maria Santanos spend approximately $11.50 per week to wash and dry their family's clothes at a local coin laundry. A
Elena L [17]

Answer:

68 weeks

Step-by-step explanation:

1 week costs $11.50.

so, how many such weekly each cycles fit into the price of new machines ?

if they wait to long (to many weeks) they spend in total more money than buying a new machine.

but if they stay still below that max. number of weeks, they have at least the illusion that they are cheaper of with the weekly laundromat investment (but they forget, sooner or later they will need the new machines).

so the break even point is simply

782 / 11.5 = 68 weeks.

after 68 weeks it has cost them exactly the same amount of money, as if they had bought new machines right away at the beginning.

What is the slope !!!!!
Ratling [72]
Hello there! Slope is rise/run. The formula for finding slope is y2 - y1/ x2 - x1, meaning that you subtract the first x and y-coordinates from the second x and y-coordinates. We'll use the points (0, 3) and (3, 2) for this case. Plug in the values into the formula to get this:

2 - 3 / 3 - 0

Subtract the values in order to get -1/3. There. The slope of the line is -1/3.
