A survey of an urban university (population of 25,450) showed that 870 of 1,100 students sampled supported a fee increase to fun

d improvements to the student recreation center. Using the 95% level of confidence, what is the confidence interval for the proportion of students supporting the fee increase? A. [0.714, 0.866] B. [0.759, 0.822] C. [0.767, 0.815] D. [0.771, 0.811]

Answer:

95% confidence interval for the proportion of students supporting the fee increase is [0.767, 0.815]. Option C

Step-by-step explanation:

The confidence interval for a proportion is given as [p +/- margin of error (E)]

p is sample proportion = 870/1,100 = 0.791

n is sample size = 1,100

confidence level (C) = 95% = 0.95

significance level = 1 - C = 1 - 0.95 = 0.05 = 5%

critical value (z) at 5% significance level is 1.96.

E = z × sqrt[p(1-p) ÷ n] = 1.96 × sqrt[0.791(1-0.791) ÷ 1,100] = 1.96 × 0.0123 = 0.024

Lower limit of proportion = p - E = 0.791 - 0.024 = 0.767

Upper limit of proportion = p + E = 0.791 + 0.024 = 0.815

95% confidence interval for the proportion of students supporting the fee increase is between a lower limit of 0.767 and an upper limit of 0.815.

Lins father is paying $20 for a meal. He has 15%-off coupon for the meal. After the discount, 7% sales tax is applied, How much
tankabanditka [31]

Answer: $18.19

Step-by-step explanation:

The tax is applied after the discount so first find the discounted price:

= Price * ( 1 - discount rate)

= 20 * ( 1 - 15%)

= $17

The sales tax of 7% can then be applied:

= Price * ( 1 + tax rate)

= 17 * ( 1 + 7%)

= $18.19

To determine how a city’s residents feel about building a new youth center, a group considers surveying 50 random children at a
Lemur [1.5K]
This would result in a biased sample because:

- the survey is surveying elementary kids about a new youth center

most of those kids are more likely than not to want a youth center, so most of them will naturally agree without a doubt for the need of a youth center

- Even the adults at the elementary school are more likely than not to agree with a new youth center because they are teachers and can even benefit from working at the youth center

- in final words the reason why this survey will be biased is because there is no variety in the participants being tested. It is basically just asking teachers she students their preference, excluding the rest of an entire community

please vote my answer brainliest. thanks!

What is the definition of mean???
Scilla [17]
Mean, in terms of math, is the total added values of all the data in a set divided by the number of data <em>in</em> the set. Make sense? If not, here' an example...

Let's say this is my data set:
1, 2, 5, 4, 3, 8, 7, 4, 6,10

To find the mean...
Step 1: Add all of them together.
1+2+5+4+3+8+7+4+6+10 is what? 50. Now that you have this number...
Step 2: Divide by the amount there are. Basically, count up all of the numbers. How many are there? There are 10. Finally...
Step 3: Divide. 50/10 is 5, so the mean of this data set would be 5. Get it? I sure hoped this helped :)
