The answer you are looking for is B, there is a small chance of the event occurring. <span />

B. There is a small chance that the event will occur.
C and D are definitely wrong since 0.001 is equal to 0.1%, that's not even 1%.
But even though it's small, that doesn't mean it's impossible, just highly unlikely.
So the answer is B.

SCORPION-xisa [38]

Answer:

77°F

Step-by-step explanation:

C = 5/9 (F - 32)

25 = 5/9 (F - 32)

-----------------------

        5/9

45 = F - 32

+32       +32

------------------

77=F

3. Using the sample size of 800 and the proportion 0.47, calculate the margin of error associated with the estimate of the propo
salantis [7]

Answer:

ME=1.96\sqrt{\frac{0.47 (1-0.47)}{800}}=0.0346  

Step-by-step explanation:

Previous concepts

A confidence interval is "a range of values that’s likely to include a population value with a certain degree of confidence. It is often expressed a % whereby a population means lies between an upper and lower interval".  

The margin of error is the range of values below and above the sample statistic in a confidence interval.  

Normal distribution, is a "probability distribution that is symmetric about the mean, showing that data near the mean are more frequent in occurrence than data far from the mean".  

The population proportion have the following distribution

p \sim N(p,\sqrt{\frac{p(1-p)}{n}})

Solution to the problem

We assume for this case a confidence level of 95%. In order to find the critical value we need to take in count that we are finding the interval for a proportion, so on this case we need to use the z distribution. Since our interval is at 95% of confidence, our significance level would be given by \alpha=1-0.95=0.05 and \alpha/2 =0.025. And the critical value would be given by:

z_{\alpha/2}=-1.96, z_{1-\alpha/2}=1.96

The confidence interval for the mean is given by the following formula:  

\hat p \pm z_{\alpha/2}\sqrt{\frac{\hat p (1-\hat p)}{n}}

The margin of error for the proportion interval is given by this formula:  

ME=z_{\alpha/2}\sqrt{\frac{\hat p (1-\hat p)}{n}}    (a)  

And if we replace the values obtained we got this:

ME=1.96\sqrt{\frac{0.47 (1-0.47)}{800}}=0.0346

Work out the size of angle x
kompoz [17]

Answer:

x = 117 degrees

Step-by-step explanation:

A triangle has 180 degrees in total.

A straight line is also 180 degrees in total.

180 - 101 = 79

Angles inside the triangle

79 + 38 = 117

180 - 117 = 63

63 degrees is the missing angle

x = 180 - 63

x = 117

Given that CD¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯ is a perpendicular bisector of AB¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯, where D is on AB¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯, how can you use the Pythagorean Theor
Liula [17]

Answer:

(AD)^2 + (CD)^2 = (CA)^2 and (CD)^2 + (BD)^2 = (CB)^2

Step-by-step explanation:

Given

Bisector: CD

of Line AB

Required

Apply Pythagoras Theorem

From the question, CD bisects AB and it bisects it at D.

The relationship between AB and CD is given by the attachment

Considering ACD

From the attachment, we have that:

Hypothenuse = CA

Opposite = CD

Adjacent = AD

By Pythagoras Theorem, we have

(AD)^2 + (CD)^2 = (CA)^2

Considering CBD

From the attachment, we have that:

Hypothenuse = CB

Opposite = CD

Adjacent = BD

By Pythagoras Theorem, we have:

(CD)^2 + (BD)^2 = (CB)^2
