Answer:
The maximum value of the confidence interval for this set of survey results is 51.73%.
Step-by-step explanation:
A confidence interval has two bounds, a lower bound and an upper bound.
These bounds depend on the sample proportion and on the margin of error.
The lower bound is the sample proportion subtracted by the margin of error.
The upper bound is the margin of error added to the sample proportion.
In this question:
Sample proportion: 46.1%
Margin of error: 5.63%.
Maximum value is the upper bound:
46.1+5.63 = 51.73
The maximum value of the confidence interval for this set of survey results is 51.73%.
For this, we need to find the area of the larger rectangle (The room) and subtract from that the area of the smaller, shaded rectangle (The rug).
A=LW (L=Length, W=Width, A=Area)
The larger rectangle first:
A=(15)(10)
A=150 feet squared
Now the Rug:
A=(12)(7)
A=84 feet squared
Now to find the area that is NOT covered by the rug, we subtract:
150-84
= 66 feet squared will NOT be covered by the rug.
Hope this Helps!

the answer is 1/8. Because you divide how many pieces there are by that same number.
