Answer:

Event is not unusual(p>0.05).

Step-by-step explanation:

Given that :

p=0.10\\\\n=1100\\\\x=121

#The sample proportion is calculated as:

\hat p=\frac{x}{n}\\\\=\frac{121}{1100}\\\\=0.1100

#Mathematically, the z-value is the value decreased by the mean then divided  the standard deviation :

z=\frac{\hat p- p}{\sqrt{\frac{p(1-p)}{n}}}\\\\\\\\=\frac{0.11-0.10}{\sqrt{\frac{0.10(1-0.10)}{1100}}}\\\\\\=1.1055

#We use the normal probability table to determine the corresponding probability;

P(X\geq 121)=P(Z>1.1055)\\\\=0.1314

Hence, the probaility is more than 0.05, thus the event not unusual  and thus  this is not necessarily evidence that the proportion of Americans who are afraid to fly has increased.

Please please help !!! will give brainliest to first correct answer
Oksi-84 [34.3K]

Answer:

[See Below]

Step-by-step explanation:

❶ It is irrational because to make it repeating it must be <u>EXACT</u>. In this case it is adding a 0 after every 1. So it'd be irrational since it doesn't have an end.

❷ Irrational because no one knows the end of pi. It doesn't have an ending so therefore irrational.

A sports ball has a diameter of 27 cm. Find the volume of the ball. cm.) Round your answer to the nearest tenth if necessary.​
Anestetic [448]
To calculate the volume of a sphere you must use the formula
v=4/3pir^3

The radius (r) is half of the diameter
r=13.5

v=4/3pi13.5^3
v=10305.99

Therefore the volume of the sports ball is 10306cm^3 (to the nearest tenth)
