Answer:

5026.55in²

Step-by-step explanation:

Area = πr^2

radius (r) is half of the diameter, hence the radius is 40 inches

So after plugging that in, the equation should look like

Area = π(40)^2

A = 1600π ≈ 5026.55

The units for this is in² so just add that in the end

Suppose that insurance companies did a survey. They randomly surveyed 400 drivers and found that 320 claimed they always buckle

Answer:

i) $ME=z_{\alpha/2}\sqrt{\frac{\hat p (1-\hat p)}{n}}$

And replacing we got:

$ME= 1.96*\sqrt{\frac{0.8 (1-0.8)}{400}} =0.0392$

ii) $Lower = 0.8-0.0392= 0.7608$

$Upper = 0.8 +0.0392= 0.8392$

Step-by-step explanation:

Notation and definitions

$X=320$ number of people that claimed always buckle up.

$n=400$ random sample taken

$\hat p=\frac{320}{400}=0.8$ estimated proportion of people that claimed always buckle up

$p$ true population proportion of people that claimed always buckle up

A confidence interval is "a range of values that’s likely to include a population value with a certain degree of confidence. It is often expressed a % whereby a population means lies between an upper and lower interval".

The margin of error is the range of values below and above the sample statistic in a confidence interval.

Normal distribution, is a "probability distribution that is symmetric about the mean, showing that data near the mean are more frequent in occurrence than data far from the mean".

The population proportion have the following distribution

$p \sim N(p,\sqrt{\frac{p(1-p)}{n}})$

Solution to the problem

Part i

In order to find the critical value we need to take in count that we are finding the interval for a proportion, so on this case we need to use the z distribution. Since our interval is at 95% of confidence, our significance level would be given by $\alpha=1-0.95=0.05$ and $\alpha/2 =0.025$ . And the critical value would be given by:
