Mr. Starnes wondered what proportion of Katy Perry's Twitter followers are
1 answer:
Answer and Step-by-step explanation:
To calculate a confidence interval for a proportion:
1) Determine the proportion
p = 0.616
2) A 90% confidence interval has z-score that is 1.645.
3) Calculate margin of error
where
n is the sample size
So
ME = 0.02175
Then the interval is given by
p ± z(ME)
0.62 ± 1.645(0.02175)
0.62 ± 0.035
The interval will be
0.585 < p < 0.655
What this means is that we are 90% confident that the true proportion of Katy Perry's Twitter female followers is between 0.585 and 0.655.

The graph of the linear equation can be seen in the image below.
<h3 /><h3>How to graph the linear equation?</h3>Here we have the linear equation:
y = (2/5)*x - 6
To graph it, we just need to find two points on the line, and then connect them with a line.
To find the points we just evaluate in two values of x.
if x = 0.
y = (2/5)*0 - 6 = -6
Then we have the point (0, -6)
If x = 5.
y = (2/5)*5 - 6 = 2 - 6 = -4
Then we have the point (5, - 4)
Now we can graph these two points and connect them with a line. The graph of the line can be seen below.
