College alcohol and drug use: In a Washington Post/Kaiser Family Foundation poll conducted from January through March 2015, 56%

of adults (ages 17‐26) who attended college during the past 4 years say that alcohol and drug use at their school is a big problem. The 95% confidence interval is (0.53, 0.59).
Which of the following is an appropriate interpretation of the 95% confidence interval?

A)There is a 95% probability that the proportion of adults (ages 17‐26) who attended college during the past 4 years say that alcohol and drug use at their school is a big problem is between 53% and 59%.
B)We are 95% confident that the proportion of the sample who say that alcohol and drug use at their school is a big problem is between 53% and 59%.
C)Of random samples of the same size, 95% will have between 53% and 59% of respondents who say that alcohol and drug use at their school is a big problem.
D)We are 95% confident that the proportion of adults (ages 17‐26) who attended college during the past 4 years and say that alcohol and drug use at their school is a big problem is between 53% and 59%.

Answer:

D)We are 95% confident that the proportion of adults (ages 17‐26) who attended college during the past 4 years and say that alcohol and drug use at their school is a big problem is between 53% and 59%.

Step-by-step explanation:

x% confidence interval:

A confidence interval is built from a sample, has bounds a and b, and has a confidence level of x%. It means that we are x% confident that the population mean is between a and b.

In this question:

95% confidence interval is (0.53, 0.59).

This means that we are 95% sure that the true proportion for the population of adults who attended college who say that alcohol is a big problem is between 0.53 and 0.59. This means that the answer is given by option D.

The area of a rectangular gymnasium is (5x+5x) square feet. If it is 5x feet wide, what is the length, in feet?
Amiraneli [1.4K]

Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:

Area = L x W      gym area is (5x + 5x) ft²      if   W = 5x      Find the L

Area = L x W       divide both sides by W

Area/W  = (L x W) / W

Area/W  =  L  =  Area/W

    L = Area/W

       =  (5x + 5x) / (5x)

       =  5x( 1 + 1) / 5x

       =  5x(2) / 5x                      the 5x's cancel each other  5x/5x = 1

       =   2 ft          I got 2.  I suspect the 12 was a typo and should have been 2

A line includes the point (7,5)has a slope of 1.What is its equation in slope intercept form?
Lina20 [59]

Given:

Point( 7, 5)

x = 7 and y=5

slope(m) = 1

We need to first find the intercept.

Substitute x=7, y=5 and m=1 into y=mx + b and solve for intercept(b)

5 = 1(7) + b

5 = 7 + b

5 - 7 = b

-2 = b

Now, form the equation by substituting the value of the slope and intercept into y=mx + b

y = x - 2
