Answer: D) Increase the sample size and decrease the confidence level.

Step-by-step explanation:

A reduced interval width means that the data is more accurate. This can only be achieved if the sample size is increased because a larger sample size is able to capture more of the characteristics of the variables being tested.

A smaller confidence interval will also lead to a reduced interval width because it means that the chances of the prediction being correct have increased.

Greeley [361]
<u></u><u>The correct answer is 47.5%, or 0.475.</u>

Explanation:
The empirical rule states that in any normal distribution:

68% of data will fall within 1 standard deviation of the mean;
95% of data will fall within 2 standard deviations of the mean; and
99.7% of data will fall within 3 standard deviations of the mean.

The mean is 500 and the standard deviation is 100.  This means that 700 is 2 standard deviations away from the mean:

(700-500)/100=200/100=2.

We know that 95% of data will fall within 2 standard deviations from the mean.  However, included in the 95% is data less than the mean and greater than the mean.  Since we are only concerned with the scores from 500 to 700, we only want the half that is greater than the mean:

95/2 = 47.5%, or 0.475.

What is the value of the fraction below?<br> 14/0
klasskru [66]

Answer:

It isn't a number so you would call it undefined

You can think of it like 14 divided by 0 and like siri said “Imagine that you have zero cookies, and you split them evenly among zero friends. How many cookies does each person get? See? It doesn’t make sense. And Cookie Monster is sad that there are no cookies, and you are sad that you have no friends.” In this case, “Imagine that you have 14 cookies, and you split them evenly among zero friends. How many cookies does each person get? See? It doesn’t make sense. And Cookie Monster is happy he gets 14 cookies, and you are sad that you have no friends.”
