Out of 100 people sampled, 42 had kids. Based on this, construct a 99% confidence interval for the true population proportion of

maksim [4K]

Answer:

The 99% confidence interval for the true population proportion of people with kids is (0.293, 0.547).

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 $1 - \frac{\alpha}{2}$ .

Out of 100 people sampled, 42 had kids.

This means that $n = 100, \pi = \frac{42}{100} = 0.42$

99% confidence level

So $\alpha = 0.01$ , z is the value of Z that has a p-value of $1 - \frac{0.01}{2} = 0.995$ , so $Z = 2.575$ .

The lower limit of this interval is:

$\pi - z\sqrt{\frac{\pi(1-\pi)}{n}} = 0.42 - 2.575\sqrt{\frac{0.42*0.58}{100}} = 0.293$

The upper limit of this interval is:

$\pi + z\sqrt{\frac{\pi(1-\pi)}{n}} = 0.42 + 2.575\sqrt{\frac{0.42*0.58}{100}} = 0.547$

The 99% confidence interval for the true population proportion of people with kids is (0.293, 0.547).

Romashka-Z-Leto [24]

Answer:

Lateral surface area of pentagonal prism = 750 cm²

Step-by-step explanation:

Given information:

Height of pentagonal prism = 15 cm

Length of edge = 10 cm

Length of apothem = 16.8 cm

Find:

Lateral surface area of pentagonal prism

Computation:

Lateral surface area of pentagonal prism = 5(a)(h)

Lateral surface area of pentagonal prism = 5(10)(15)

Lateral surface area of pentagonal prism = 750 cm²
