<h2>Answer with explanation:</h2>

The confidence interval for population mean is given by :-

\hat{p}\pm z_{\alpha/2}\sqrt{\dfrac{\hat{p}(1-\hat{p})}{n}}

, where \hat{p} is the sample proportion, n is the sample size , z_{\alpha/2} is the critical z-value.

The  values needed to calculate a confidence interval at the 99% confidence level are :

Given : Significance level : \alpha:1-0.99=0.01

Sample size : n=450

Critical value : z_{\alpha/2}=2.576

Sample proportion: \hat{p}=\dfrac{280}{450}\approx0.62

Now, the  99% confidence level will be :

\hat{p}\pm z_{\alpha/2}\sqrt{\dfrac{\hat{p}(1-\hat{p})}{n}}\\\\=0.62\pm(2.576)\sqrt{\dfrac{0.62(1-0.62)}{450}}\\\\\approx0.62\pm0.023\\\\=(0.62-0.023,\ 0.62+0.023)=(0.597,\ 0.643)

Hence, the  99% confidence interval is (0.597,\ 0.643)

How do you do this question?
daser333 [38]

Answer:

B. 1/2

Step-by-step explanation:

\lim_{z \to 0} \frac{g(z)e^{-z}-3}{z^{2}-2z}

If we plug in 0 for z, we get 0/0.  Apply l'Hopital's rule.

\lim_{z \to 0} \frac{-g(z)e^{-z}+g'(z)e^{-z}}{2z-2}

Now when we plug in 0 for z, we get:

\frac{-g(0)e^{0}+g'(0)e^{0}}{2(0)-2}\\\frac{-g(0)+g'(0)}{-2}\\\frac{-3+2}{-2}\\\frac{1}{2}
