Answer:  (0.143, 0.257)

Step-by-step explanation:

Given : Level of significance : 1-\alpha:0.99

Then , significance level : \alpha: 1-0.99=0.01

Since , sample size : n=300 .

Critical value : z_{\alpha/2}=2.576

Also, the proportion of people said that they were fans of the visiting team :-

\hat{p}=\dfrac{ 60}{300}\approx0.2

The confidence interval for population proportion is given by :-

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

0.2\pm(2.576)\sqrt{\dfrac{0.2(1-0.2)}{329}}\\\\\approx0.2\pm0.057\\\\=(0.2-0.057, 0.2+0.056=(0.143,\ 0.257)

Hence,   the confidence interval for the population proportion with a 99% confidence level= (0.143, 0.257)

Answer:

.141, .259

p′=60300=0.2.

The standard error of the sampling distribution of the sample proportion is

σp′=p^(1−p′)n−−−−−−−−√=0.2(1−0.2)300−−−−−−−−−−√≈0.023.

With zα2=2.576 for a confidence level of 99%, the margin of error is thus

marginof error=(zα2)σp′≈(2.576)(0.023)≈0.059.

With point estimate p′=0.2=0.200 and a margin of error of 0.059, the confidence interval is

(0.200−0.059,0.200+0.059)(0.141,0.259).

We estimate with 99% confidence that the true population proportion of people who rent their home is between 0.141 and 0.259.

LuckyWell [14K]

Answer:

the equation ( in t(n) form) is t(n)= 325(1.04) to the 12th exponent. otherwise the answer is 520.34 if you round up the half cent.

Step-by-step explanation:

325 is the starting value, or figure 0. 1.04 is the multiplier because it is growing buy .04 and you need to add in the 1 otherwise it'd decrease by 96% each time.

A clothing store has a section of jeans on sale. There is a 30% chance of picking a pair with a 30-inch inseam; a 25% chance of
Andrej [43]

The expected value of the inseam length of the jeans is found as

30% of 30+ 25% of 32+ 10% of 34+ 10% of 36 + 10% of 38 + 15% of 40

= \frac{30}{100}\times30 +\frac{25}{100}\times32+ \frac{10}{100}\times34+ \frac{10}{100}\times36 +\frac{10}{100}\times38+ \frac{15}{100}\times40

= 9+8+3.4+3.6+3.8+6=33.8

Hence, the third option 33.8 is the correct expected value.

Which are equal to 3/2?
KIM [24]
Explanation:

Starting with the first option, the square root of 12 and 8 isn’t a perfect square so it definitely can’t be reduced to 3/2.

It is the same for the second option as well.

Third option :
Root of 36 is 6
Root of 16 is 4

6/4 = 3/2

Fourth option:
Root of 81 is 9
Root of 36 is 6

9/6 = 3/2

Answer:

Therefore, the third and fourth options are the correct choices.

Hope this helped!
