Harris Interactive® conducted a poll of American adults in August of 2011 to study the use of online medical information. Of the

1,019 randomly chosen adults, 60% had used the Internet within the past month to obtain medical information. Use the results of this survey to create an approximate 95% confidence interval estimate for the percentage of all American adults who have used the Internet to obtain medical information in the past month.

Answer:

0.60 - 1.96\sqrt{\frac{0.60(1-0.60)}{1019}}=0.570

0.60 + 1.96\sqrt{\frac{0.60(1-0.60)}{1019}}=0.630

The 95% confidence interval for the true proportion would be given by (0.570;0.630) .

And if we convert this into % we got (57.0%, 63.0%)

Step-by-step explanation:

The information given we have the following info given:

n = 1019 represent the sampel size

\hat p=0.6 represent the sample proportion of interest

The confidence level is 95%, our significance level would be given by \alpha=1-0.95=0.05 and \alpha/2 =0.025. And the critical value would be given by:

z_{\alpha/2}=-1.96, z_{1-\alpha/2}=1.96

The confidence interval for the mean is given by the following formula:  

\hat p \pm z_{\alpha/2}\sqrt{\frac{\hat p (1-\hat p)}{n}}

Replacing the info given we got:

0.60 - 1.96\sqrt{\frac{0.60(1-0.60)}{1019}}=0.570

0.60 + 1.96\sqrt{\frac{0.60(1-0.60)}{1019}}=0.630

The 95% confidence interval for the true proportion would be given by (0.570;0.630) .

And if we convert this into % we got (57.0%, 63.0%)

I need to find the angles of A and B. From what I know, they should be congruent, but I've been stuck for wayyyy to long.​
ANTONII [103]

Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:

If I'm not mistaken, the 76 degrees means that a is equal to 76 deg. Just visually, if you were to widen that angle, similarly, a would grow just as much.

If you know that a = 76d, b = 76d as well

The graph of F(x) can be stretched vertically and flipped over the x axis to produce the graph of G(x) if F(x)=x^2 which of the
ladessa [460]

Answer:

g(x) = -5x²

(option B)

Step-by-step explanation:

we know that our original graph, f(x) = x² is a parabola.

So, we can consider what happens when we adjust the function/equation of a parabola.

when we "vertically stretch" a parabola, we are increasing the value of x.

 think of it this way: the steepness of a slope is rise over run. If we rise ten, and run one, that's going be a lot more steep than if we rise 1, run 1.

Let's say our x = 5

if f(x)=x²

f(5) = 25

> y value / steepness is 25

f(x) = 3x²

f(5) = 75

 > y value / steepness is 75

So, we are looking for an equation with an increase in x present.

When a parabola has been flipped over the x-axis, we know that the original equation now includes a negative

suppose that x = 1

if y = x² ; y = 1² = 1

if y = -(x²) ; y = -(1²) ; y = -1

So, when we set x to be negative, we make our y-values end up as negative also (which makes the graph look as if it has been flipped upside-down)

This means that we are looking for a function with a negative x value.

So, we are looking for a negative x-value that is multiplied by a number >1

The graph that fits our requirements is g(x) = -5x²

hope this helps!!

Evaluate 3 - (-1) + (-1) - 3.
lara [203]

Answer:

0

Step-by-step explanation:

3 <em><u>-</u></em> (<u><em>-</em></u>1) + (-1) -3 =

Minus and a negative makes it positive. In other words it would be written like this: 3 + 1 <u><em>+</em></u> (<u><em>-</em></u>1) - 3 =

Next step would be making it minus 1, because plus sign and negative makes the number to be subtracted. It would be rewritten like this: <em><u>3 + 1 </u></em>- 1 - 3 =

Then you will simply add 3 and 1, which makes it 4. So it would be rewritten likes this: <em><u>4 - 1</u></em> - 3 =

Then you will simply subtract 1 from 4, which would equal to 3. So it would be rewritten like this: <em><u>3 - 3</u></em> =

Last step, would be subtracting 3 from 3. Whatever is subtracted from itself would always be 0.

So the answer would be 0!

you have a bottle with a leak . after 2 seconds there are 28 ounces left in the bottle. after 6 seconds , there are 20 ounces le
Arte-miy333 [17]
We determine first the rate of flow of water out of the bottle by dividing the difference in the volume with the difference in time. 
                           r = (28 - 20) / (6 - 2)
                             r = 2 ounce/s
We calculate the first term by adding 2 ounce/s to the 2nd term, giving us the answer which is equal to 30 ounce/second.
