What is 2.35 rounded to the nearest hundredth.

In a simple random sample of 14001400 young people, 9090% had earned a high school diploma. Complete parts a through d below.

ratelena [41]

Answer:

(a) The standard error is 0.0080.

(b) The margin of error is 1.6%.

(c) The 95% confidence interval for the percentage of all young people who earned a high school diploma is (88.4%, 91.6%).

(d) The percentage of young people who earn high school diplomas has increased.

Step-by-step explanation:

Let p = proportion of young people who had earned a high school diploma.

A sample of n = 1400 young people are selected.

The sample proportion of young people who had earned a high school diploma is:

$\hat p=0.90$

(a)

The standard error for the estimate of the percentage of all young people who earned a high school diploma is given by:

$SE_{\hat p}=\sqrt{\frac{\hat p(1-\hat p)}{n}}$

Compute the standard error value as follows:

$SE_{\hat p}=\sqrt{\frac{\hat p(1-\hat p)}{n}}$

$=\sqrt{\frac{0.90(1-0.90)}{1400}}\\$

$=0.008$

Thus, the standard error for the estimate of the percentage of all young people who earned a high school diploma is 0.0080.

(b)

The margin of error for (1 - α)% confidence interval for population proportion is:

$MOE=z_{\alpha/2}\times SE_{\hat p}$

Compute the critical value of z for 95% confidence level as follows:

$z_{\alpha/2}=z_{0.05/2}=z_{0.025}=1.96$

Compute the margin of error as follows:

$MOE=z_{\alpha/2}\times SE_{\hat p}$

$=1.96\times 0.0080\\=0.01568\\\approx1.6\%$

Thus, the margin of error is 1.6%.

(c)

Compute the 95% confidence interval for population proportion as follows:

$CI=\hat p\pm MOE\\=0.90\pm 0.016\\=(0.884, 0.916)\\\approx (88.4\%,\ 91.6\%)$

Thus, the 95% confidence interval for the percentage of all young people who earned a high school diploma is (88.4%, 91.6%).

(d)

To test whether the percentage of young people who earn high school diplomas has increased, the hypothesis is defined as:

H₀: The percentage of young people who earn high school diplomas has not increased, i.e. p = 0.80.

Hₐ: The percentage of young people who earn high school diplomas has not increased, i.e. p > 0.80.

Decision rule:

If the 95% confidence interval for proportions consists the null value, i.e. 0.80, then the null hypothesis will not be rejected and vice-versa.

The 95% confidence interval for the percentage of all young people who earned a high school diploma is (88.4%, 91.6%).

The confidence interval does not consist the null value of p, i.e. 0.80.

Thus, the null hypothesis is rejected.

Hence, it can be concluded that the percentage of young people who earn high school diplomas has increased.

Help me!!! Is for today!!! And what is its congruency?

solniwko [45]

Answer:

Side-Side-Side (SSS) Congruence Property

Step-by-step explanation:

Congruence just means that two things are of the same size. For instance, if you have two congruent side lengths, they are the same length. In this picture, you can see that both triangles have a side with one dash and a side with two dashes. In geometry, to show that two lines are congruent you give them the same number of dashes, and therefore you know for sure that those two pairs of sides are congruent. Finally, the triangles share a side length, so you know that that side length is equal for them. Therefore, the appropriate congruence property here is SSS, since you know that three pairs of sides are congruent.

Oscar was not safeguarding his personal identification and chose a two-digit PIN for his debit card using the numbers 0 - 9. Wit

There are 90 different identification numbers possible.

<h3>What are the permutation and combination?</h3>

In terms of mathematical concepts, “permutation” and “combination” are related to each other.

The combination is the counting of selections that we make from n objects.

Oscar was not safeguarding his personal identification and chose a two-digit PIN for his debit card using the numbers 0 - 9.

There are 10 possible values for each digit of the PIN (namely: 0, 1, 2, 3, 4, 5, 6, 7, 8, 9), so there are;

10 × 10 = 100 total possible PINs.

Now, because you can't use the same number twice, we subtract 10 from 100 because there are 10 numbers that can match themselves.

100 -10 =90

Hence, there are 90 different identification numbers possible.

Can someoe help? 7x-24=6x-2

just olya [345]

Answer:

$7x - 24 = 6x - 2 \\ collecting \: like \: terms \: \\ 7x - 6x = - 2 + 24 \\ 1x = 22 \\ x = \frac{22}{1} \: \: or \: \: x = 22$

Let one side of the square be x
all sides of the square are equal
A=x•x(area formula of a square)
240.25 = x^2
so then the lengths of the sides of the square is 15.5 in
