Question Help Of 515515 samples of seafood purchased from various kinds of food stores in different regions of a country and gen

etically compared to standard gene fragments that can identify the​ species, 6262​% were mislabeled. ​a) Construct a 9090​% confidence interval for the proportion of all seafood sold in the country that is mislabeled or misidentified. ​b) Explain what your confidence interval says about seafood sold in the country. ​c) A government spokesperson claimed that the sample size was too​ small, relative to the billions of pieces of seafood sold each​ year, to generalize. Is this criticism​ valid?

Answer:

(0.5848 ; 0.6552)

We are confident that about 58% to 66% of sea foods in the country are Mislabelled.

No, criticism isnt valid and generalization can be made once the assumptions for constructing a confidence interval is met.

Step-by-step explanation:

Sample size, n = 51

p = 0.62

1 - p = 1 - 0.62 = 0.38

n = 515

Confidence level = 90% = Zcritical at 90% = 1.645

Confidence interval = (p ± margin of error)

Margin of Error = Zcritical * sqrt[(p(1-p))/n]

Margin of Error = 1.645 * sqrt[(0.62(0.38))/515]

Margin of Error = 1.645 * 0.0214

Margin of Error = 0.035203

Lower boundary = (0.62 - 0.035203) = 0.584797

Upper boundary = (0.62 + 0.035203) = 0.655203

(0.5848 ; 0.6552)

We are confident that about 58% to 66% of sea foods in the country are Mislabelled.

No, criticism isnt valid and generalization can be made once the assumptions for constructing a confidence interval is met.

What are the real and complex solutions of the polynomial equation? x^4-41x^2=-400. *work needed*
pickupchik [31]
<h3>Answer: x = -5, -4, 4 and 5.</h3><h3>All four zeros are real solutions.</h3>

Step-by-step explanation:

Given the polynomial equation x^4-41x^2=-400.

Adding 400 on both sides to get rid 400 from right side and set 0 on right side, we get

x^4-41x^2+400=-400+400.

x^4-41x^2+400=0.

Factoring by product sum rule.

We need product of 400 and sum upto -41.

We can see that 400 = -25 × -16 = 400 and -25-16 = -41.

Therefore,

x^4-25x^2-16x^2+400=0

Making it into two groups, we get

(x^4-25x^2)+(-16x^2+400)=0

Factoring out GCF of each group, we get

x^2(x^2-25)-16(x^2-25)=0

(x^2-25)(x^2-16) =0

Factoring out  (x^2-25) and (x^2-16) separately by difference of the squares identity a^2-b^2=(a-b)(a+b), we get

(x^2-25) = x^2-5^2= (x-5)(x+5) and

x^2-16 = x^2-4^2 =(x-4)(x+4).

Therefore,

(x-5)(x+5)(x-4)(x+4) =0

Applying zero product rule,

x-5=0

x+5=0

x-4=0 and

x+4=0.

Therefore,

<h3>x = -5, -4, 4 and 5.</h3><h3>All four zeros are real solutions.</h3>
