Answer:

(a) (0.9240,  0.956)

(b) (0.6383, 0.7017)

Step-by-step explanation:

The number of internet users involved in the survey, n = 846

The percentage of the respondents that said the internet has been good thing for them personally, \hat p = 94%

(a) The confidence interval of a percentage is given as follows;

CI=\hat{p}\pm z\times \sqrt{\dfrac{\hat{p}(1-\hat{p})}{n}}

The z-value for 95% confidence interval = 1.96

We get;

CI=0.94\pm 1.96\times \sqrt{\dfrac{0.94 \times (1-0.94)}{846}} \approx 0.94 \pm 1.6003 \times 10^{-2}

CI = 0.9240 ≤ \hat p ≤ 0.956 = (0.9240,  0.956)

(b) The percentage of the internet users that said the internet has directly strengthened their relationship with their families, \hat p = 67% = 0.67

The 95% confidence interval is therefore;

CI=0.67\pm 1.96\times \sqrt{\dfrac{0.67 \times (1-0.67)}{846}} \approx 0.67 \pm 3.1686\times 10^{-2}

From which we have;

CI = 0.6383 ≤ \hat p ≤ 0.7017 = (0.6383, 0.7017)

Y = 2x + 50, 

It's easier to look at the first set of numbers and then make a formula from there. so we need x to be zero and y to be 50, which is why the formula listed works.

40 green cars 20 silver if same # of green stayed the same how many more silver would need to be added so the ratio of green to
slega [8]
So, there will be 40 green cars. if we want the ratio to be 1:3, we will need there to b three times as many silver cars as green cars: 40*3=120.

we already have 20 silver, so we need to add 120-20, that is 100 silver cars!

Birth weights in the United States are normally distributed with a mean of 3420 g and a standard deviation of 495 g. The Newport
s344n2d4d5 [400]

Answer:

P(2450

And we can find this probability with this difference:

P(-1.96

If we use the normal standard table or excel we got:

P(-1.96

And that represent 95% of the data. so then the percentage below 2450 is 2.5% and above 4390 is 2.5 %

Step-by-step explanation:

Let X the random variable that represent the birth weights of a population, and for this case we know the distribution for X is given by:

X \sim N(3420,495)  

Where \mu=3420 and \sigma=495

We are interested on this probability

P(2450

And we can use the z score formula given byÑ

z=\frac{x-\mu}{\sigma}

If we apply this formula to our probability we got this:

P(2450

And we can find this probability with this difference:

P(-1.96

If we use the normal standard table or excel we got:

P(-1.96

And that represent 95% of the data. so then the percentage below 2450 is 2.5% and above 4390 is 2.5 %
