A magazine provided results from a poll of 500500 adults who were asked to identify their favorite pie. Among the 500500 ​respon
Komok [63]

Answer:

99% confidence interval is wider as compared to the 80% confidence interval.

Step-by-step explanation:

We are given that a magazine provided results from a poll of 500 adults who were asked to identify their favorite pie.

Among the 500 respondents, 14​% chose chocolate​ pie, and the margin of error was given as plus or minus ±3 percentage points. 

The pivotal quantity for the confidence interval for the population proportion is given by;

                            P.Q.  =  \frac{\hat p-p}{\sqrt{\frac{\hat p(1-\hat p)}{n} } }  ~ N(0,1)

where, \hat p = sample proportion of adults who chose chocolate​ pie = 14%

            n = sample of adults = 500

            p = true proportion

Now, the 99% confidence interval for p =  \hat p \pm Z_(_\frac{\alpha}{2}_)  \times \sqrt{\frac{\hat p(1-\hat p)}{n} }

Here, \alpha = 1% so  (\frac{\alpha}{2}) = 0.5%. So, the critical value of z at 0.5% significance level is 2.5758.

Also, Margin of error = Z_(_\frac{\alpha}{2}_)  \times \sqrt{\frac{\hat p(1-\hat p)}{n} }  = 0.03 for 99% interval.

<u>So, 99% confidence interval for p</u>  =  0.14 \pm2.5758  \times \sqrt{\frac{0.14(1-0.14)}{500} }

                                                        = [0.14 - 0.03 , 0.14 + 0.03]

                                                        = [0.11 , 0.17]

Similarly, <u>80% confidence interval for p</u>  =  0.14 \pm 1.2816  \times \sqrt{\frac{0.14(1-0.14)}{500} }

Here, \alpha = 20% so  (\frac{\alpha}{2}) = 10%. So, the critical value of z at 10% significance level is 1.2816.

Also, Margin of error = Z_(_\frac{\alpha}{2}_)  \times \sqrt{\frac{\hat p(1-\hat p)}{n} }  = 0.02 for 80% interval.

So, <u>80% confidence interval for p</u>  =  [0.14 - 0.02 , 0.14 + 0.02]

                                                           =  [0.12 , 0.16]

Now, as we can clearly see that 99% confidence interval is wider as compared to 80% confidence interval. This is because more the confidence level wider is the confidence interval and we are more confident about true population parameter.

1. Solve the equation using the zero-product property.<br> -x(5x – 4) = 0
Oxana [17]

Answer:

x = 0, 4/5

Step-by-step explanation:

The zero-product property states that if the product of a and b is zero, then either a = 0, b = 0, or both terms equal zero

  • Here our a term is -x and our b term is (5x - 4)
  • Setting each term equal to zero and solving for x we get
  • -x = 0 → x = 0
  • 5x - 4 = 0 → 5x = 4 → x = 4/5

Please help, I'll mark Brainiest. It's 8th grade math
yawa3891 [41]

Answer:

(-5, 2)

Step-by-step explanation:

<u>plug x into the equation x - 5y = -15</u>

-5 - 5y = -15

add 5 to both sides: -5y = -10

divide by -5: y = 2
