Answer:

The point estimate = 0.507

Margin error of a given confidence interval = 0.032

Step-by-step explanation:

The point estimate is calculated by using the sample statistics of a population.

Thus; point estimate can be expressed with the formula:

$\overline x = \dfrac{\sum \limits ^n _{i=1} \ x _i}{n}$

Given that : 0.475 < p < 0.539

$\overline x = \dfrac{0.475+0.539}{2}$

$\overline x = \dfrac{1.014}{2}$

$\overline x = 0.507$

The point estimate = 0.507

The margin of error which shows the percentage of points that the derived results would differ from that of the given population value can be calculated with the formula:

Margin error of a given confidence interval = $\mathtt{\dfrac{upper \ confidence \ limit - lower \ confidence \ limit }{2}}$

Margin error of a given confidence interval = $\dfrac{0.539-0.475}{2}$

Margin error of a given confidence interval = $\dfrac{0.064}{2}$

Margin error of a given confidence interval = $0.032$

forsale [732]

Diide both sides by -1
|j|=9
rememeber if |a|=b, then assume a=b and a=-b

Cody's Gym charges a $15 fee to join and $30 per month. Tyler's Gym charges a $30 fee to join and $20 per month. Write an inequa

posledela

Answer:

After (3/2) months Tyler's gym would be a better deal.

Step-by-step explanation:

Let x the number of months

Cody's Gym charges a $15 fee to join and $30 per month

y₁= 15 + 30x (1)

Tyler's Gym charges a $30 fee to join and $20 per month

y₂ = 15 + 30x (2)

See the attached figure which represent the graph of y₁ (with blue color) and y₂ (with red color)

The point of intersection between y₁ and y₂ is ( 3/2 , 60)

After 3/2 months Tyler's Gym charges will be less than Cody's Gym charges

So, the inequality will be:

After (3/2) months Tyler's gym would be a better deal.

Complete the following invoice for upholstery fabric.

Degger [83]

Answer:

a) $49.48

b) $220921.91

Step-by-step explanation:

(a) 4 yd @ $12.37 per yd = 4 x $12.37 = $49.48

(b) 271 yd @ 815.21 per yd = 271 x $815.21 = $220921.91

(c) 20% yd @ $4.95 per yd : Here the nunber of yards are missing. Hence could not be answer . However if number of yards is x . The answer would be

20% of 4.95x

(20%=0.20)

0.20 × 4.95x

Simplify the square root of 147

Sergio [31]

Answer:

7√3

Step-by-step explanation:

To simplify a square root, look for some of its factors. You are especially looking for factors that are square numbers, or sometimes factors that repeat (repeating factors give you a square number).

√147

=√3·49 Remember 49 is a square number, you can take out its square root.

=7√3 Simplified.

You might also end up with these factors instead.

√147

=√3·7·7 Two same factors mean a square number you can take out.

=7√3 Simplified form.
