Try this solution:
let the unknown two-digits number be 'xy'.
Then it is possible to write any two-digit number as 10x+y, where x - the tens digit and y - the unit digit.
Using the rule described above the phrase 'the tens digit of a number is twice the units digit' may be written as x=2y.
Using the same rule the phrase 'if the digits are reversed, the new number is 36 is less than the original number' may be written as (10x+y)-(10y+x)=36.
These two equations may be resolved as system of two equations:
Check: the original number is 84, the new number is 48; difference is 84-48=36.
answer: 84

Answer: b. Yes
Step-by-step explanation: Confidence Interval for a population proportion is calculated as:
p ±
where
p is the sample proportion
n is sample size
z is z-score, in this case, as it is 95%, z-score=1.96
Calculating confidence interval:
p = 0.3248
0.3248 ±
0.3248 ±
0.3248 ± 0.0425
Interval: 0.2823 < μ < 0.3673
The interval means we are 95% sure the true mean is between 0.2823 and 0.3673. As the campaign claims a proportion of no more than 0.32 of the voters wants to see Mayor Waffleskate defeated and the number is in the confidence interval, the claim is supported.
