Answer:

y = 3x + 7

Step-by-step explanation:

When lines are parallel, the slope is the same but the y-intercept is not

The blue line is the graph for y = 3x + 2

The slope for the line is 3/1

So the slope for the line containing (-2,1) should be 3/1

I plotted (-2,1) and used the Rise/Sun (3/1) to find a point on the y-axis, the teal point.

I graphed the line in yellow

In y=mx + b, b = 7, and mx = 3x

So the equation is y = 3x + 7

If my answer is incorrect, pls correct me!

Determine the sample size needed to construct a 90% confidence interval to estimate the population proportion when p = 0.65 and

WINSTONCH [101]

Answer:

n=170

Step-by-step explanation:

1) Notation and definitions

$n$ random sample taken (variable of interest)

$\hat p=0.65$ estimated proportion.

$p$ true population

A confidence interval is "a range of values that’s likely to include a population value with a certain degree of confidence. It is often expressed a % whereby a population means lies between an upper and lower interval".

The margin of error is the range of values below and above the sample statistic in a confidence interval.

Normal distribution, is a "probability distribution that is symmetric about the mean, showing that data near the mean are more frequent in occurrence than data far from the mean".

The population proportion have the following distribution

$p \sim N(p,\sqrt{\frac{\hat p(1-\hat p)}{n}})$

In order to find the critical value we need to take in count that we are finding the interval for a proportion, so on this case we need to use the z distribution. Since our interval is at 90% of confidence, our significance level would be given by $\alpha=1-0.90=0.1$ and $\alpha/2 =0.05$ . And the critical value would be given by:
