Solution :

Given :

n = 221

x = 17

a). $p=\frac{17}{221}$

       = 0.076

b). At the 95 confidence interval

   Value of z = 1.96

  Margin of error

    $=1.96 \times  \sqrt{\frac{p(1-p)}{n}}$

    $=1.96 \times  \sqrt{\frac{0.076(1-0.076)}{221}}$

   $=1.96 \times  \sqrt{\frac{0.076\times 0.924 }{221}}$

   = 1.96 x 0.017

   = 0.03332

c). confidence interval

   = ( 0.076-0.033,  0.076+0.033)

   = ( 0.043, 0.109 )

d). The confidence interval does not contain null value, so it is significant.

Use the points (0, 4) and (-2, 3) to find the slope of the line and give the equation of this line.​
Sauron [17]

Answer:

Choice C:   m=\frac{1}{2}; y=\frac{1}{2} x+4

Step-by-step explanation:

To find your slope do:

\frac{y^2-y^1}{x^2-x^1}

\frac{3-4}{-2-0}=\frac{-1}{-2} =\frac{1}{2}

that's how you get 1/2

4 is just the y-int.

The value of a car is $30,000 and depreciates at a rate of 6.5% each year.
navik [9.2K]

Answer:$20250

Step-by-step explanation:

6.5% of 30000

6.5/100 x 30000

(6.5 x 30000)/100

195000/100=1950

First year depreciation 30000-1950=28050

Second year=28050-1950=26100

Third year=26100-1950=24150

Fourth year=24150-1950=22200

Fifth year=22200-1950=20250
