If you think about it and you use a calculator and do 1300×5% it will give you a number and divide it by 10 and there you should get you answer like that.
Answer:
We are 95% confident that the proportion of American voters who favor congressional term limits is 64 percent with a difference of 3% for small sample size.
Step-by-step explanation:
95 % confidence means that we are 95 % confident that the the proportion of American voters who favor congressional term limits is 64 percent.
95 % confidence means that of all the sample about 95 % values are within in the given range.
And only 5% sample are not included in the given parameter.
Margin of error is the amount of miscalculation or difference in change of circumstances from the obtained data.
3% margin of error usually occurs when the data size is small.
As the data size increases the margin of error decreases.
So this statement tells us that we are 95% confident that the proportion of American voters who favor congressional term limits is 64 percent with a difference of 3% for small sample size.
Margin of error= z *σ/√n→
This indicates that as the sample size decreases the margin of error increases and vice versa.
To solve this problem, we must imagine the triangles and
parallel lines which are formed. It is best to draw the triangle described in
the problem so that you can clearly understand what I will be talking about.
The first step we have to do is to make an equality equation
in triangle ABC.
In triangle ABC, we are given that lines XY and BC are two
parallel lines (XY || BC). Therefore
this means that:
AX / XB = AY / YC --->
1
The next step is to make an equality equation in triangle
AXC.
We are given that lines ZY and XC are two parallel lines (ZY
|| XC). Therefore this also means that:
AZ / ZX = AY / YC ---> 2
Combining 1 and 2 since they have both AY / YC in common:
AX / XB = AZ / ZX
we are given that:
AZ = 8, ZX = 4 therefore AX = AZ + ZX = 12, hence
12 / XB = 8 / 4
XB = 6
