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.

The example on direct variation is illustrated below based on the information given.

<h3>How to illustrate the direct variation?</h3>

An example will be:

When x = 2, y = 10. Find the value of y when x is 6.

In this case, this will be calculated thus:

y = kx

10 = 2k

k = 10/2

k = 5

Since y = kx.

y = 5 × 6

y = 30

The value of y is 30.

simplify 4 square root of 2 end root plus 7 square root of 2 end root minus 3 square root of 2. 2 square root of 8 8 square root
Alex787 [66]

<u>Answer</u>

8√2


<u>Explanation</u>

Simply: 4√2 + 7√2 - 3√2

Let √2 = x

4√2 + 7√2 - 3√2 = 4x + 7x - 3x

                             = 11x - 3x

                             = 8x

Substituting x with √2

4√2 + 7√2 - 3√2 = 8√2
