Answer: (0.1481323,\ 0.2018677)

Step-by-step explanation:

The confidence interval for population proportion :

\hat{p}\pm z^*\sqrt{\dfrac{\hat{p}(1-\hat{p})}{n}} , where n= sample size, \hat{p} = sample proportion , z*= Critical  z-value.

Let p = population proportion of successes.

Given: n= 200 , \hat{p}=\dfrac{35}{200}=0.175

Critical z value for 95% confidence = 1.96

The 95% confidence interval for a population proportion is:

0.175\pm (1.96)\sqrt{\dfrac{(0.175)(1-0.175)}{200}}\\\\=\ 0.175\pm (1.96)\sqrt{0.000721875}\\\\= 0.175\pm (1.96)(0.0268677)\\\\=(0.175-0.0268677,0.175+0.0268677)\\\\= (0.1481323,\ 0.2018677)

Required confidence interval: (0.1481323,\ 0.2018677)

erik [133]

Answer:

x = 0

Step-by-step explanation:

Given

Represent the number with x.

So:

2 + x + x + x + x + x + x  + x + x + x + x = 2

or

2 + 10x = 2

We want to solve for x

Subtract both sides by 2

2 - 2 + 10x = 2 - 2

10x = 0

Solve for x

x = \frac{0}{10}

x = 0

No other number aside 0, satisfy the property.
