Answer:

In 1956, the height will be 33.05 ft

Step-by-step explanation:

Let +x+ = number of years after 1900

Calll 1900 +x+=+0+

Then 1990 is +x+=+90+

Let +y+ = height in feet

--------------------------

You are gven the points

( 0, 33 )

( 90, 33.08 )

Use general point-slope formula

+%28+y+-+33+%29+%2F+%28+x+-+0+%29+=+%28+33.08+-+33+%29+%2F+%28+90+-+0+%29+

Multiply both sides by +90x+

+90%2A%28+y+-+33+%29+=+.08x+

+90y+-+2970+=+.08x+

+90y+=+.08x+%2B+2970+

+y+=+.000889x+%2B+33+ ( equation to use )

--------------------------

Check:

does it go through ( 90, 33.08 ) ?

+33.08+=+.000889%2A90+%2B+33+

+33.08+=+.08001+%2B+33+

+33.08+=+33.08001+

close enough

-------------------------------

(a)

+x+=+61%0D%0A%7B%7B%7B+y+=+.000889x+%2B+33+

+y+=+.000889%2A61+%2B+33+

+y+=+.0542+%2B+33+

+y+=+33.0542+

In 1961, the height will be 33.05 ft

AlekseyPX

Answer:

His 95% confidence interval is (0.065, 0.155).

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 = 186, \pi = 0.11

95% confidence level

So \alpha = 0.05, z is the value of Z that has a pvalue of 1 - \frac{0.05}{2} = 0.975, so Z = 1.96.

The lower limit of this interval is:

\pi - z\sqrt{\frac{\pi(1-\pi)}{n}} = 0.11 - 1.96\sqrt{\frac{0.11*0.89}{186}} = 0.065

The upper limit of this interval is:

\pi + z\sqrt{\frac{\pi(1-\pi)}{n}} = 0.11 + 1.96\sqrt{\frac{0.11*0.89}{186}} = 0.155

His 95% confidence interval is (0.065, 0.155).

Make w the subject of the formula y-aw=2w-1
kipiarov [429]
Answer: <span>w = [ y + 1] / [a + 2]

Solution step by step:
</span>
1) given <span>formula: y-aw=2w-1

2) transpose aw and - 1

2w + aw = y + 1

3) common factor w:

w (a + 2) = y + 1

4) divide both sides by (a + 2):

w = [ y + 1] / [a + 2]
