Let x be the unknown number.
7x + 668 < 2000 => 7x plus 668 is less than 2000
where:
7x => x represents the number of cans to be collected in 7 days
668 is the number of cans already collected.
2000 is the target number of cans.
7x + 668 < 2000
<u> - 668 -668</u>
7x < 1332
<u>÷7 ÷7</u>
x < 190.30
or
x < 190
To check:
7x + 668 < 2000
7(190) + 668 < 2000
1330 + 668 < 2000
1998 < 2000
Answer: There is a 90% chance that the true proportion of teenagers who drive their own car to school will lie in (0.5907, 0.9093).
Step-by-step explanation:
Interpretation of a% confidence interval : A person can be a% confident that the true population parameter lies in it.
Here, A 90% confidence interval to estimate the true proportion of teenagers who drive their own car to school is found to be (0.5907, 0.9093).
i.e. A person can be 90% confident that the true proportion of teenagers who drive their own car to school lies in (0.5907, 0.9093).
Hence, correct interpretation is : There is a 90% chance that the true proportion of teenagers who drive their own car to school will lie in (0.5907, 0.9093).
Factoring the expression would be 6a(2a^2+4a-1)
