Answer:

D. 68%

Step-by-step explanation:

The following statistics are given;

sample mean = 47%

s = 5% ; the sample standard deviation

n = 625 ; the sample size

The confidence interval for a population mean is given as;

sample mean ± z-score*\frac{s}{\sqrt{n} }

Substituting the above values we have;

47 ± z-score*\frac{5}{\sqrt{625} }

47 ± z-score*0.2

The confidence interval has been given as;

lower limit = 46.8%

upper limit = 47.2%

We can use any of these two values with the above expression to solve for the z-score. Using the lower limit we have the following equation;

47 - z-score*0.2 = 46.8

-z-score*0.2 = 46.8 - 47

-z-score*0.2 = -0.2

z-score = 1

The area of the standard normal curve between -1 and +1 will be the confidence level for the given confidence interval.

Pr( -1<Z<1 ) = 0.68 = 68%

From the Empirical rule

Help with a graph problem pleaseeeeee graph the line with slope -1/2 passing through the point (-1,2)
timofeeve [1]

When you know the slope m and a point (x_0,y_0) of a line, the equation of the line is given by

y-y_0=m(x-x_0)

So, your line is given by

y-2=-\dfrac{1}{2}(x+1) \iff y=-\dfrac{1}{2}x-\dfrac{1}{2}+2=-\dfrac{1}{2}x+\dfrac{3}{2}

at the park, people can climb a rope ladder to its top. rosa climbed 2/8 of the up the ladder. Justin climbed 2/6 of the way up
Lerok [7]
Well if you make the denominater of the fraction the same, aka finding the lowest common multiple you can find out so what you do is 8 and 6 both go into 24 8 goes into 24 3 times and 6 goes 4 times so you multiply the numerator by how many times the denominator goes into the LCM(lowest common multiple) and get 6/24 and 8/24 meaning justin climbed higher
