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.

What is an expression for the distance between the origin and a point P(x,y)
kirza4 [7]

Answer:

d =  \sqrt{ {x}^{2}  +  {y}^{2} }

Step-by-step explanation:

Distance between origin (0, 0) and point (x, y) is given as:

d =  \sqrt{ {(x - 0)}^{2}  +  {(y - 0)}^{2} }  \\  \\ \red{ \bold{ d =  \sqrt{ {x}^{2}  +  {y}^{2} } }}

Explain why a graph that fails the vertical-line test does not represent a function
Anon25 [30]
For any given y value, there can only be one x value. Let's consider a graph with a line that curves and intersects x=2 twice. This would mean that if you plug 2 into the function you would get two answers. However, this is not possible as plugging in any value to x will result in only one answer. For example, if y= 4x + 3, no matter how many times I plug a number in there, I'm always going to get the same y value, and this is true for all real functions.
