A zoning board in Pine County is interested in estimating the proportion of its residents in favor of larger school zones in tha

t county. A random sample of Pine County residents was selected. All the selected residents were asked, "Are you in favor of larger school zones in your county?" A 95% confidence interval for the proportion of residents in favor of larger school zones in that county was calculated to be 0.48 ± 0.02. Which of the following statements is correct?
A) At the 95% confidence level, the majority of area residents is in favor of larger school zones in that county.
B) In repeated sampling, 95% of sample proportions will fall in the interval (0.46, 0.50).
C) At the 95% confidence level, the estimate of 0.48 is within 0.02 of the true proportion of county residents in favor of larger school zones in that county.
D)In repeated sampling, the true proportion of county residents in favor of larger school zones in that county will fall in the interval (0.46, 0.50).
E) In repeated sampling, 95% of the time, the true proportion of county residents in favor of larger school zones in that county will be equal to 0.48.

Answer:

C) At the 95% confidence level, the estimate of 0.48 is within 0.02 of the true proportion of county residents in favor of larger school zones in that county.

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% CI between 0.48 - 0.02 = 0.46 and 0.48+0.02 = 0.5.

The interpretation is that we are 95% sure that the true population proportion is in this interval, that is, with 95% confidence, the estimate is within 0.02 of the true proportion, and so the correct answer is given by option C.

A)

\bf \textit{area of a circle}\\\\
A=\pi r^2
\\\\\\
\cfrac{dA}{dt}=\pi \cdot 2r\cfrac{dr}{dt}\implies \cfrac{dA}{dt}=2\pi r\cfrac{dr}{dt}\implies \cfrac{\frac{dA}{dt}}{2\pi r}=\cfrac{dr}{dt}\\\\
-----------------------------\\\\
\left. \cfrac{dr}{dt}  \right|_{r=3000}\implies \cfrac{1200}{2\pi \cdot 3000}=\cfrac{dr}{dt}\\\\

B)

\bf A=\pi r^2\qquad A=490000\implies 490000=\pi r^2\implies \sqrt{\cfrac{490000}{\pi }}=r
\\\\\\
\left. \cfrac{dr}{dt}  \right|_{r=\sqrt{\frac{490000}{\pi }}}\implies \cfrac{1200}{2\pi \cdot \sqrt{\frac{490000}{\pi }}}=\cfrac{dr}{dt}

Rewrite 8x - 7 as the product of two factors
kykrilka [37]

Answer:

factors are any group of number or expressions which, when multiplied, produce another number or expression.

Basic example:  4 can be broken into 2 factors---2 and 2.  2 times 2 = 4

Example using an unknown:

2X + 6 = 2 * (X + 3)

In the given problem, there is no whole-number common factor.  A normal convention would be to factor based on the unknown term----thus 8X is factored into 8 and X.

So:  8X + 7 = 8 ( X + 7/8 )

The following would also be correct:

8X + 7 = 4 ( 2X + 7/4 )

What is the probability that the first card is a kingking and the second card is a kingking if the sampling is done with​ replac
IRINA_888 [86]
You want to draw 2 kings from a 52 card deck. And you do it with replacement.
There are 4 kings in a standard deck. The probability of getting one of them is 
4/52 on the first draw.

For the second draw the probability is the same.
4/52

The probability for both happening is 
(4/52)*(4/52) = (1/13)*(1/13) = 1/169 = 0.001597
