Answer:

The 90% confidence interval is   0.8315 <  p < 0.8685

Step-by-step explanation:

From the question we are told that

   The sample size is n =  1007  

    The sample proportion is  \^ p =  0.85

From the question we are told the confidence level is  90% , hence the level of significance is    

      \alpha = (100 - 90 ) \%

=>   \alpha = 0.10

Generally from the normal distribution table the critical value  of  \frac{\alpha }{2} is  

   Z_{\frac{\alpha }{2} } =  1.645

Generally the margin of error is mathematically represented as  

      E = Z_{\frac{\alpha }{2} } * \sqrt{\frac{\^ p(1- \^ p)}{n}}

=>   E =1.645 * \sqrt{\frac{0.85 (1- 0.85 )}{1007}}

=>   E = 0.0185    

Generally 90% confidence interval is mathematically represented as  

      \^ p -E <  p <  \^ p +E

=>  0.85 -0.0185 <  p < 0.85 + 0.0185

=>  0.8315 <  p < 0.8685

An airplane can travel at a speed of 550 mph. Write and solve an equation to find the time it will take to fly from London to Mo
Cerrena [4.2K]
Hey! Hope that I can help.

An equation that could be used to find this is (h=hours) 550h = 3300. To solve this equation, we need to divide both sides by 550.     ÷550      ÷550
You get h = 6.                                                                             h = 6

Select the answer that correctly orders the set of numbers from greatest to least. 15% ,1/2 , 0.2 , 0.09.
Lilit [14]
15% in decimal form would be 0.15. 1/2 would be 0.50. So following that, if we were to place these in greatest to least form, then it would be: 0.50, 0.15, 0.09, 0.2. I hope I've ordered these correctly and that I've helped. Have a nice day.

What is the solution to this system of equations graphed?
Levart [38]

Answer:

(2,-2)

Step-by-step explanation:

The solution to a system of equations like these, is where the two lines intersect. In this case, I believe, it would be at point (2,-2). Although, it is a little hard to pinpoint without the labeled number lines.

Hope this helps! Best of luck!
