Step 1: Find the slope:
This gives you , but we need to find b.
To find b, substitute in one (x,y) pair and it doesn't matter which one. I'll go with (4,-2):
Now take that b-value and plug in into the slope-intercept form:
It's always a good idea to toss in the other x-value from the other point, to make sure it checks out.
Answer: a) (0.755, 0.925)
Step-by-step explanation:
Let p be the population proportion of 8th graders are involved with some type of after school activity.
As per given , we have
n= 100
sample proportion:
Significance level :
Critical z-value : (using z-value table)
Then, the 98% confidence interval that estimates the proportion of them that are involved in an after school activity will be :-
i.e.
i.e.
i.e.
Hence, the 98% confidence interval that estimates the proportion of them that are involved in an after school activity : a) (0.755, 0.925)
