Answer:

Smallest: 15,840 ft

Largest: 16,896 ft

Step-by-step explanation:

1 mi = 5,280 ft

Setup proportion to solve for the <u>smallest</u>:

\frac{1mi}{5,280ft} =\frac{3mi}{xft}

Do butterfly method and you should get this:

xft=3(5280)\\x=15,840ft

Setup proportion to solve for the <u>largest</u>:

\frac{1mi}{5,280ft} =\frac{3.2mi}{xft}

Butterfly method:

xft=3.2(5280)\\x=16,896ft

In 2001 polls indicated that 74% of Americans favored mandatory testing of students in public schools as a way to rate the schoo
Kryger [21]

Answer:

The right answer is:

"If 74% of Americans still favor mandatory testing this year, then there is a 1.5% chance that poll results will show 71% or fewer with this opinion."

Step-by-step explanation:

The P-value represents the probability of getting the sample we got, given that the null hypothesis is true. For this reason, it the P-value is lower than the significance level, it means that the sample result is unlikely due to chance, but due to a false null hypothesis.

In this case, the P-value represents a probability P=0.015 of having a sample with proportion p=0.71, given that the population has a proportion π=0.74.

The right answer is:

"If 74% of Americans still favor mandatory testing this year, then there is a 1.5% chance that poll results will show 71% or fewer with this opinion."
