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.

Complete the equation of the line through (−10,3) (−8,−8). Use exact numbers. y=
fomenos

Answer:

y = -11/2x - 52

Step-by-step explanation:

Now follow the equation for slope: m = change in y / change in x.

\frac{y2-y1}{x2-x1}

\frac{-8-3}{-8--10}

\frac{-11}{2}

The slope is -11/2. m=-11/2

Use slope-intercept form:

y=mx+b

Plug in a point and the slope:

-8 = (-11/2)(-8) + b

-8 = 44 + b

b = -52

<u></u>

<u>y = -11/2x - 52</u>

Need help on number 6 and 13 plz
Ivahew [28]

Answer:


Step-by-step explanation:

6A) Death Valley is located below sea level.  It says it is -282 feet.  This means that it is below 0 and sea level is marked at 0.

6B) 5280 + 282 = 5562 ft higher

6C)  The closer you get to the ocean the closer you are to 0.  If you were in the water floating on top you would be at 0.

13) all 3 are 28

The parenthesis have to stay.  This is how we know to distrubute the 2 across the problem.

maks197457 [2]
Draw a number line from -10 to +10 with tick marks (division lines) every 1 unit.  Now find the origin (in the middle of the line you have just drawn).  Now move your pencil point 3 units to the left and plot a dark (closed) dot there.  Then draw a ray from that closed dot to the left.  Apparently we cannot extend that ray beyond -10.

(-10,-3] would be my representation of this situation.

Translate the given phrase to an expression. Subtract 2/7 from 25/28. Do not simplify

25/28 - 2/7
it doesn’t need to be solved because it asked for an expression and not an equation, so no equal sign either

gizmo_the_mogwai [7]

Answer:

990

Step-by-step explanation:

The center position can be selected in 3 different ways, the other 4 players can be selected in combinations of 11 players (the center is already selected) taken 4 at a time.

By the Fundamental Principle of Counting, there are

3\displaystyle\binom{11}{4}=3*\displaystyle\frac{11!}{4!(11-4)!}=3*\displaystyle\frac{11!}{4!7!}=990

ways for her to select the starting line-up.
