Answer:

The magin of error is 0.0552 = 5.52 percentage points.

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}.

The margin of error is:

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

For this problem, we have that:

n = 329, \pi = \frac{49}{329} = 0.1489

99.5% confidence level

So \alpha = 0.005, z is the value of Z that has a pvalue of 1 - \frac{0.005}{2} = 0.9975, so z = 2.81.

M.E:

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

M = 2.81\sqrt{\frac{0.1489*(0.8511)}{329}} = 0.0552

The magin of error is 0.0552 = 5.52 percentage points.

The outside temperature decreases by 7F in 3 1 2hours. Part A How would you represent the temperature change as a unit rate? Exp
Evgesh-ka [11]

Answer:

A)  2f / hour

B) 10 f

Step-by-step explanation:

outside temperature decreases by ; 7 F in 3 1/2 hours

a ) represent temperature change as a unit rate

To do this you will need to represent the temperature change per hour

7 f / 3.5 hours

= 7 f / 3.5 = 2 therefore the temperature change as a unit rate = 2f / hour

b) Temperature change after 5 hours

Δ temperature  in 5 hours = temperature change per hour * 5

                             = 2 F * 5 =  10 F
