Answer:

y = (1/3)x + 7

y = (1/3)x - 15

These are two examples out of an unlimited number of possibilities.

Step-by-step explanation:

The slope of this given line is -3.  Any new line perpendicular to this one is the negative reciprocal of -3:  1/3.

The slope-intercept form is y = mx + b.  Here m = 1/3, so the revised form is

y = (1/3)x + b.

Two straight lines perpendicular to the given line are easily found by selecting two different values for b:

y = (1/3)x + 7

y = (1/3)x - 15

Use the given degree of confidence and sample data to construct a confidence interval for the population proportion p. n = 195,
Semenov [28]
Given:
n = 195, sample size.
x = 162, successes in the sample

The proportion is
p = x/n = 162/195 = 0.8308

n* p = 195*0.8308 = 162
n*(1-p) = 195*(1 - 0.8308) = 33
If n*p >= 10, and n*(1-p) >= 10, then the sample proportions will have a normal distribution. This condition is satisfied.

The proportion mean is
μ = 0.8308
The proportion standard deviation is
\sigma =  \sqrt{ \frac{p(1-p)}{n} }  = \sqrt{ \frac{0.8308(1-0.8308)}{195} } =0.0269

σ/√n = 0.0269/√195 = 0.00192

At the 95% confidence level, the interval for the population proportion is
(μ - 1.96(σ/√n), μ + 1.96(σ/√n))
= (0.8308 - 1.96*0.00192, 0.8308 + 1.96*0.00192)
= (0.827, 0.8345)

Answer: The 95% confidence interval is (0.827, 0.835)
