16/20 = 0.8
0.8*100= 80
100-80= 20%

Following table shows the calculations:

Delta, X Southwest , Y X^2 Y^2 XY

45.96 38.76 2112.3216 1502.3376 1781.4096

46.8 45.41 2190.24 2062.0681 2125.188

47.93 15.7 2297.2849 246.49 752.501

51.78 49.58 2681.1684 2458.1764 2567.2524

52.17 44.34 2721.7089 1966.0356 2313.2178

47.36 18 2242.9696 324 852.48

Total 292 211.79 14245.6934 8559.1077 10392.0488

Sample size: n =6

Now

$S_{yy}=\sum y^{2}-\frac{\left (\sum y \right )^{2}}{n}=1083.27$

$S_{xx}=\sum x^{2}-\frac{\left (\sum x \right )^{2}}{n}=35.03$

$S_{xy}=\sum xy-\frac{\left (\sum x \right )\left (\sum y \right )}{n}=84.94$

The coefficient of correlation is :

$r=\frac{S_{xy}}{\sqrt{S_{xx}S_{yy}}}=0.436$

A computer manufacturing company has sent a mail survey to 2,800 of its randomly selected customers that have purchased a new la

vodka [1.7K]

Answer:

The 96% confidence interval for the population proportion of customers satisfied with their new computer is (0.77, 0.83).

Step-by-step explanation:

We have to calculate a 96% confidence interval for the proportion.

We consider the sample size to be the customers that responded the survey (n=800), as we can not assume the answer for the ones that did not answer.

The sample proportion is p=0.8.

$p=X/n=640/800=0.8$

The standard error of the proportion is:

$\sigma_p=\sqrt{\dfrac{p(1-p)}{n}}=\sqrt{\dfrac{0.8*0.2}{800}}\\\\\\ \sigma_p=\sqrt{0.0002}=0.014$

The critical z-value for a 96% confidence interval is z=2.054.

The margin of error (MOE) can be calculated as:

$MOE=z\cdot \sigma_p=2.054 \cdot 0.014=0.03$

Then, the lower and upper bounds of the confidence interval are:

$LL=p-z \cdot \sigma_p = 0.8-0.03=0.77\\\\UL=p+z \cdot \sigma_p = 0.8+0.03=0.83$

The 96% confidence interval for the population proportion is (0.77, 0.83).
