A survey of an urban university (with a finite population of 25,450) showed that 750 of 1,100 students sampled attended a home f

ootball game during the season. Using the 99% level of confidence, what is the confidence interval for the proportion of students attending a football game?

Answer: (0.644,\ 0.716)

Step-by-step explanation:

Given : Sample size = 1100

The number of students attended a home football game during the season = 750

Then, the proportion of students attending a football game =\dfrac{750}{1100}=0.681818181818\approx0.68

Critical value = z_{\alpha/2}=z_{0.01/2}=z_{0.005}=2.576

Now, the confidence interval for the population proportion is given by :-

p\pm z_{\alpha/2}\sqrt{\dfrac{p(1-p)}{n}}\\\\=0.68\pm (2.576)\sqrt{\dfrac{0.68(0.32)}{1100}}\\\\\approx0.68\pm0.036\\\\=(0.644,0.716)

Hence, the 99% confidence interval for the proportion of students attending a football game = (0.644,\ 0.716)

In a study of bat migration habits, 240 male bats and 160 female bats have been tagged. If 100 more female bats are tagged, how
valentinak56 [21]
Remark 
The way you have to set this up is to take the new number for the males and put it over the total for the males and females. The new number for the males / total = 3/5.

Step One
Find the total number of females
100 + 160 = 260 when 100 females have been added to the study.

Step Two 
Find the number of males
The total number of males = 240 + x where x is the number of males to be added.

Step Three
Find the total for both
260 + 240 + x = Total
500 + x = Total.

Step Four
Find the ratio of males to total
(240 + x) / (500 + x) = 3/5   

Step Five
Cross multiply and solve
(240 + x)*5 = (500+x)*3
1200 + 5x = 1500 + 3x    Subtract 1200 from both sides.
5x = 1500 - 1200 + 3x     
5x = 300 + 3x                   Subtract 3x from both sides.
5x - 3x = 300
2x = 300                          Divide by 2 
x = 300  / 2
x = 150

Check
(240 + 150 ) / (500 + 150) = ? 3/5
390 / 650 = ? 3/5
39/65 = ? 3/5  Divide the top and bottom on the left by 13
3/5 = 3/5 and it checks.

The answer is c (4, 1) because when you add 1 to the x value it moves right one and then when you subtract 3 from the y value it goes down 3 making it (4, 1)
