Answer:

a. The margin of error for the survey is of 0.0308 = 3.08%.

b. The 95% confidence interval that is likely to contain the exact percent of all people who favor the home team winning is (65.96%, 78.04%).

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 z-score that has a p-value of 1 - \frac{\alpha}{2}.

The margin of error of the survey is:

M = \sqrt{\frac{\pi(1-\pi)}{n}}

The confidence interval can be written as:

\pi \pm zM

In a survey of 212 people at the local track and field championship, 72% favored the home team winning.

This means that n = 212, \pi = 0.72

a. Find the margin of error for the survey.

M = \sqrt{\frac{0.72*0.28}{212}} = 0.0308

The margin of error for the survey is of 0.0308 = 3.08%.

b. Give the 95% confidence interval that is likely to contain the exact percent of all people who favor the home team winning.

95% confidence level

So \alpha = 0.05, z is the value of Z that has a p-value of 1 - \frac{0.05}{2} = 0.975, so Z = 1.96.

Lower bound:

\pi - zM = 0.72 - 1.96*0.0308 = 0.6596

Upper bound:

\pi + zM = 0.72 + 1.96*0.0308 = 0.7804

As percent:

0.6596*100% = 65.96%

0.7804*100% = 78.04%.

The 95% confidence interval that is likely to contain the exact percent of all people who favor the home team winning is (65.96%, 78.04%).

How do I work out A & B ?
Sonja [21]

Answer:

see explanation

Step-by-step explanation:

(a)

Given

x² + 5x + 6

Consider the factors of the constant term ( + 6) which sum to give the coefficient of the x- term ( + 5)

The factors are 3 and 2, since

3 × 2 = 6 and 3 + 2 = 5, hence

x² + 5x + 6 = (x + 3)(x + 2) ← in factored form

(b)

To solve

x² + 5x + 6 = 0 ← use the factored form, that is

(x + 3)(x + 2) = 0

Equate each factor to zero and solve for x

x + 3 = 0 ⇒ x = - 3

x + 2 = 0 ⇒ x = - 2

What solution do 2x2 - 13x + 21 = 0 and 2x2 + 9x - 56 = 0 have in common? Round your answer to the nearest tenth if necessary.
lys-0071 [83]
So if we want to know the common solution(s) to a system of 2 equations, So we can just set both equations equal to each other and solve for the x value(s). That’s where I start below;

2x^2-13x+21 = 2x^2+9x-56
2x^2 cancels out and moving everything to one side and anything with an x variable to the other side we have then;
-22x=-77
22x=77 by cancelling the negative signs
x=77/22 therefore x=7/2 or 3.5

Hope this helps you. Any questions please ask.
