Answer: 8.3

Step-by-step explanation:

To find the variance, you want to find the mean of the data.

$\frac{3+3+8+1+9+6}{6} =5$

Now that we have the mean, we find the difference between each data point and the mean.

3-5=-2

8-5=3

1-5=-4

9-5=4

6-5=1

With the difference, you square each and find the average.

(-2)²=4

3²=9

(-4)²=16

4²=16

1²=1

$\frac{4+4+9+16+16+1}{6} =\frac{25}{3}$

The variance is 8.3.

Answer:

The 99% confidence interval for p in this case is (0.3317, 0.5883).

Step-by-step explanation:

In a sample with a number n of people surveyed with a probability of a success of $\pi$ , and a confidence level of $1-\alpha$ , we have the following confidence interval of proportions.

$\pi \pm z\sqrt{\frac{\pi(1-\pi)}{n}}$

In which

z is the zscore that has a pvalue of $1 - \frac{\alpha}{2}$ .

Randomly selects 100 students from the school and asks the President to name each one. The President is able to correctly name 46 of the students.

This means that:

$n = 100, \pi = \frac{46}{100} = 0.46$
