Answer:

Cost of shrubs = 23

Cost of tree = 47

Step-by-step explanation:

Let

Cost of shrubs = x

Cost of tree = y

13x + 4y = 487 (1)

6x + 2y = 232 (2)

Multiply (2) by 2

12x + 4y = 464 (3)

13x + 4y = 487 (1)

Subtract (3) from (1)

13x - 12x = 487 - 464

x = 23

Substitute x = 23 into (2)

6x + 2y = 232 (2)

6(23) + 2y = 232

138 + 2y = 232

2y = 232 - 138

2y = 94

y = 94/2

= 47

y = 47

Which expression should you simplify to find the 90% confidence interval,
bogdanovich [222]

Answer:

0.45 - 1.96\sqrt{\frac{0.45(1-0.45)}{36}}=0.2870.45 + 1.96\sqrt{\frac{0.45(1-0.45)}{36}}=0.613

we can conclude at 95% of confidence that the true proportion of interest for this case is between 0.287 and 0.613

Step-by-step explanation:

The estimated proportion of interest is \hat p=0.45

We need to find a critical value for the confidence interval using the normla standard distributon. For this case we have 95% of confidence, then the significance level would be given by \alpha=1-0.95=0.05 and \alpha/2 =0.025.

And the critical value is:z_{\alpha/2}=-1.96, z_{1-\alpha/2}=1.96

The confidence interval for the true population proportion is interest is given by this formula:  

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

Replacing the values provided we got:

0.45 - 1.96\sqrt{\frac{0.45(1-0.45)}{36}}=0.287\\\\0.45 + 1.96\sqrt{\frac{0.45(1-0.45)}{36}}=0.613

And we can conclude at 95% of confidence that the true proportion of interest for this case is between 0.287 and 0.613
