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.

PLEASE HELP!!!

P=12T

Q=66T

-----------

Toys added to each bag:

P=12T+nT

Q=66T+nT

Therefore, 66T+nT=3(12T+nT)

------------

66T+nT=36T+3nT

T(66+n)=T(36+3n)

66+n=36+3n

3n-n=66-36

2n=30

Therefore, n=30/2=15

*She added 15 toys to each bag.

The best estimate of the population means is always the sample mean. We have the sample values, using them we can find the sample mean.

The sum of the sampled rates = 248
Sample Size = 10

Mean value of the sample = Sum of Sample Rate/Sample Size

So,

Mean of the sample = 248/10 = 24.8

Therefore, we can say that the best estimate for the population mean is 24.8
