AlekseyPX

Answer:

His 95% confidence interval is (0.065, 0.155).

Step-by-step explanation:

In a sample with a number n of people surveyed with a probability of a success of \pi, and a confidence level of 1-\alpha, we have the following confidence interval of proportions.

\pi \pm z\sqrt{\frac{\pi(1-\pi)}{n}}

In which

z is the zscore that has a pvalue of 1 - \frac{\alpha}{2}.

For this problem, we have that:

n = 186, \pi = 0.11

95% confidence level

So \alpha = 0.05, z is the value of Z that has a pvalue of 1 - \frac{0.05}{2} = 0.975, so Z = 1.96.

The lower limit of this interval is:

\pi - z\sqrt{\frac{\pi(1-\pi)}{n}} = 0.11 - 1.96\sqrt{\frac{0.11*0.89}{186}} = 0.065

The upper limit of this interval is:

\pi + z\sqrt{\frac{\pi(1-\pi)}{n}} = 0.11 + 1.96\sqrt{\frac{0.11*0.89}{186}} = 0.155

His 95% confidence interval is (0.065, 0.155).

zhannawk [14.2K]

Answer:

15.26km

Step-by-step explanation:

Con la informacion de la pregunta e hecho un diagrama de la situacion. Podemos ver en el diagrama que el recorido forma un triángulo rectángulo. Entonces para saber la distancia que recorreria por el camino recto desde su casa a su trabajo tendriamos que calcular el valor de x, que se puede calcular usando el teorema de pitagoras que es el siguiente.

a^{2} + b^{2} = c^{2}

donde a y b son el ancho y el alto del triangulo y el c seria x

8^{2} + 13^{2}  = x^{2}

64 + 169 = x^{2}

233 = x^{2}

15.26 = x

Finalmente, podemos ver que la distancia seria 15.26km
