The student body President of a high school claims to know the names of at least 1000 of the 1800 students at the school. To tes

t this claim, the Student Government Advisor 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. What would be the 99% confidence interval for p in this case?

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

99% confidence level

So \alpha = 0.01, z is the value of Z that has a pvalue of 1 - \frac{0.01}{2} = 0.995, so Z = 2.575.

The lower limit of this interval is:

\pi - z\sqrt{\frac{\pi(1-\pi)}{n}} = 0.46 - 2.575\sqrt{\frac{0.46*0.54}{100}} = 0.3317

The upper limit of this interval is:

\pi + z\sqrt{\frac{\pi(1-\pi)}{n}} = 0.46 + 2.575\sqrt{\frac{0.46*0.54}{100}} = 0.5883

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

HELP ME!! im so stumped. will give brainliest!

Answer:

x=1+\sqrt{3} and x=1-\sqrt{3}

Step-by-step explanation:

We have been given the parabola with vertex (1, -9) and y intercept at (0, -6).

Now we need to find the x-intercepts of that parabola. So first we begin by finding the equation of parabola using vertex formula:

y=a\left(x-h\right)^2+k

Vertex for this formula is given by (h,k)

Compare that with given vertex (1,-9), we get: h=1, k=-9

So plug these into vertex formula:

y=a\left(x-1\right)^2-9...(i)

Plug given point (0, -6). into (i)

-6=a\left(0-1\right)^2-9

-6=a\left(-1\right)^2-9

-6=a\left(1\right)-9

-6+9=a

3=a

Plug a=3 into (i)

y=3\left(x-1\right)^2-9

Now to find x-intercept, we just plug y=0 and solve for x

y=3\left(x-1\right)^2-9

0=3\left(x-1\right)^2-9

9=3\left(x-1\right)^2

3=\left(x-1\right)^2

\pm \sqrt{3}=x-1

1+\pm \sqrt{3}=x

Hence final answer are

x=1+\sqrt{3} and x=1-\sqrt{3}
