A researcher wishes to estimate the proportion of X-ray machines that malfunction. A random 275 sample of machines is taken, and

228 of the machines in the sample malfunction.
Based upon this, compute a 95% confidence interval for the proportion of all X-ray machines that malfunction. Then complete the table below.
Carry your intermediate computations to at least three decimal places. Round your answers to two decimal places.
What is the lower limit of the 95% confidence interval?
What is the upper limit of the 95% confidence interval?

Answer:

Following are the solution to the given question:

Step-by-step explanation:

95\% Confidence Interval for both the percentage of all x-ray machines

p = the machinery's share is not working:

= \frac{228}{275}\\\\ = 0.829

\text{Margin of Error} = Z_{(\frac{\alpha}{2})} \times \sqrt{( p \times (1-p)}{n})

                         = 1.96 \times \sqrt{(0.829 \times \frac{0.171}{275})} \\\\= 1.96 \times 0.023 \\\\= 0.045

Lower 95\% Confidence interval = p - error margin = 0.829 - 0.045 = 0.784

Upper 95\% Confidence Interval = p + error margin= 0.829 + 0.045 = 0.874

So, 95\% Confidence Interval = ( 0.78 , 0.87 )

Lexi bought 1 2/5 of green grapes and 2 3/10 of red grapes. Grapes are 2.99 a pound.Did lexi spend more or less then $12?
Romashka-Z-Leto [24]
Less. If you multiple 1 2/5 by $2.99 you would get about $4.19. If you multiple 2 3/10 by $2.99 you would get about $6.88. If you add those together, you would get $11.07, which is less than $12.

What is 4/20 simplified
frozen [14]
4/20 simplified would be 1/5. You must know what simplify means first. It means to break down a fraction to its simplest form. So, to simplify 4/20, you must divide 4 from the denominator and numerator. A numerator is a number that is the number above the line. A denominator is the number on the bottom of the line. 
Dividing 4 from the denominator and numerator would make it 1/5. Therefore, the answer in simplest form is 1/5. Good luck!
