Answer:

9:8

Step-by-step explanation:

According to the word problem, Joe has 6 frogs, 8 hamsters, 9 goldfish, and 3 snakes.

The question is asking the ratio of Joe's frogs AND snakes TO hamsters.

To find out the ratio of frogs and snakes, add how many frogs there are to how many snakes there are.

6 + 3 = 9.

The last part of the equation should be obvious.

There are 8 hamsters.

Therefore, the ratio of Joe's frogs and snakes to hamsters is 9:8.

Answer:

The 99% confidence interval for the proportion of readers who would like more coverage of local news is (0.3685, 0.4315).

Step-by-step explanation:

In a sample with a number n of people surveyed with a probability of a success of $\pi$ , and a confidence level of $1-\alpha$ , we have the following confidence interval of proportions.

$\pi \pm z\sqrt{\frac{\pi(1-\pi)}{n}}$

In which

z is the zscore that has a pvalue of $1 - \frac{\alpha}{2}$ .

For this problem, we have that:

$n = 1600, \pi = 0.4$

99% confidence level

So $\alpha = 0.01$ , z is the value of Z that has a pvalue of $1 - \frac{0.01}{2} = 0.995$ , so $Z = 2.575$ .

The lower limit of this interval is:

$\pi - z\sqrt{\frac{\pi(1-\pi)}{n}} = 0.4 - 2.575\sqrt{\frac{0.4*0.6}{1600}} = 0.3685$

The upper limit of this interval is:

$\pi + z\sqrt{\frac{\pi(1-\pi)}{n}} = 0.4 + 2.575\sqrt{\frac{0.4*0.6}{1600}} = 0.4315$

The 99% confidence interval for the proportion of readers who would like more coverage of local news is (0.3685, 0.4315).
