Step-by-step explanation:

$\displaystyle \lim_{x \to 1} \dfrac{(x^2 - 1)}{(x-1)} = \lim_{x \to 1} \dfrac{(x - 1)(x+1)}{(x-1)}$

$\:\:\:\:\:\:\:\:\displaystyle = \lim_{x \to 1} (x+1) =2$

The area of a parallelgoram is:

A = bh,

Answer: (0.132132, 0.274368)

Step-by-step explanation:

Given : A simple random sample of 123 people living in Gastown and finds that 25 have an annual income that is below the poverty line.

i.e. n= 123

$\hat{p}=\dfrac{25}{123}\approx0.203252$

Critical value for 95% confidence interval : $z_{\alpha/2}=1.96$

Confidence interval for population :

$\hat{p}\pm z_{\alpha/2}\sqrt{\dfrac{\hat{p}(1-\hat{p})}{n}}$

i.e. $0.203252\pm (1.96)\sqrt{\dfrac{0.203252(1-0.203252)}{123}}$

$0.203252\pm (1.96)\sqrt{\dfrac{0.203252(1-0.203252)}{123}}\\\\\0.203252\pm0.071118\\\\=(0.20325-0.071118,\ 0.203252+0.071118)\\\\=(0.132132,\ 0.274368)$

Hence, the 95% confidence interval for the true proportion of Gastown residents living below the poverty line : (0.132132, 0.274368)

Answer:

1:17

Step-by-step explanation:

Find out how long it it between 5.30pm and 9am. This is 8 hours 30 minutes or 510 minutes.

Now, arrange them in the ratio of Lunch Break to Total office time

30:510. This can be simplified to 1:17

Please check if the question is worded correctly, just in case. Because ratio questions are usually based on a part and the remaining parts of the same thing, and not part to whole.

Anyway. The answer given if for the question you have typed.

Hope this helps.
