<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)

Answer:

(6, -2)

Step-by-step explanation:

The midpoint of the segment RS is point M (5, 3). Therefore, the average of the x coordinates of R and S is 5, and the average of the y coordinates of R and S is 3. The x coordinate of R is 4. For 4 and the x coordinate of S to have an average of 5, the x coordinate of S must be 6. Therefore, our point is of the form (6, y). For 8 and the y coordinate of S to have an average of 3, the y coordinate of S must be -2. Therefore, our answer is (6, -2)

PLS AWNSER ASAP!!Which expression can be used to determine the length of segment ZY? On a coordinate plane, triangle X Y Z has p
MArishka [77]
Sqrt(8^2 + 3^2)

Y is 3,4
Z is -5,1

3-(-5) = 8 (difference between x coords)
4-1 = 3 (difference between y coords)
Equation is: sqrt( (xdiff)^2 + (ydiff)^2 )
