You want to find x such that

... 1 - x = (1 - 6%)³

... x = 1 - (0.94)³ = 1 - 0.830584 = 0.169416

... x ≈ 16.9%

The economy shrank by about 16.9% over the three-year period.

4.4x-4=3.4x

Substract '-3.4x' at LHS nad the RHS of the above expression.

\begin{gathered} 4.4x-4-3.4x=3.4x-3.4x \\ 4.4x-3.4x-4=0 \\ x-4=0 \end{gathered}

You recently sent out a survey to determine if the percentage of adults who use social media has changed from 66%, which was the
il63 [147K]

Answer:

The 98% confidence interval estimate of the proportion of adults who use social media is (0.56, 0.6034).

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}.

Of the 2809 people who responded to survey, 1634 stated that they currently use social media.

This means that n = 2809, \pi = \frac{1634}{2809} = 0.5817

98% confidence level

So \alpha = 0.02, z is the value of Z that has a pvalue of 1 - \frac{0.02}{2} = 0.99, so Z = 2.327.

The lower limit of this interval is:

\pi - z\sqrt{\frac{\pi(1-\pi)}{n}} = 0.5817 - 2.327\sqrt{\frac{0.5817*4183}{2809}} = 0.56

The upper limit of this interval is:

\pi + z\sqrt{\frac{\pi(1-\pi)}{n}} = 0.5817 + 2.327\sqrt{\frac{0.5817*4183}{2809}} = 0.6034

The 98% confidence interval estimate of the proportion of adults who use social media is (0.56, 0.6034).
