order to increase education spending. Of those surveyed, 48% of the people said they were in favor of the plan. Determine a 95% confidence interval for the percentage of people who favor the tax plan, rounding values to the nearest tenth.

Answer:

(0.4543 ; 0.5057)

Step-by-step explanation:

This is a confidence interval for one sample proportion :

Phat , = 0.48

Sample size = 1450

1 - phat = 1 - 0.48 = 0.52

Zcritical = 95% ; Zcritical at 95% = 1.96

Using the relation :

Phat ± Zcritical *√[phat(1-phat) / n]

√[phat(1-phat) / n] = √(0.48*0.52) /1450) = 0.0131201

Lower boundary :

0.48 - (1.96 * 0.0131201) = 0.4543

Upper boundary :

0.48 + (1.96 * 0.0131201) = 0.5057

(0.4543 ; 0.5057)

Find a 3 digit number with all these properties: all 3 digits are different, the 1st digit is the square of the second digit in
DanielleElmas [232]

Answer:

425 or 937

Step-by-step explanation:

First, I listed out all the possible numbers for the first digits, namely, the squares under 10.

1*1=1

2*2=4

3*3=9

Since all the digits have to be different, the first digit cannot be 1 because 1 squared is 1. So that leaves us 4 and 9 to work with, which I tried out one at a time.

Starting with 4:

2 squared is 4.

42

2 times 2 plus 1 equals 5.

425

Starting with 9:

3 squared is 9.

93

2 times 3 plus 1 equals 7.

937

So here we have two numbers that both work and meet the requirements (unless I understood the problem wrong at the part where it says "...the second digit in the 3rd digit on one more than twice the second digit")!

I hope this helped! :D

What is the relationship between fractions and decimals?
Tanzania [10]
The relationship between fractions and decimals is that with a fraction you are dividing whereas a decimal is treated like a number.
i.e.      1/4=0.25
Think of decimals as 100 being the whole or 1 so split 100 into 4 and you get 25 or 0.25
