You want to determine the percentage of seniors who drive to campus. You take a random sample of 125 seniors and ask them if the

y drive to campus. Your 95% confidence interval turns out to be from 0.69 to 0.85. Select each correct interpretation of this situation. There might be no, one, or more than one correct statement. Explain, the reason if it is not a correct interpretation.

Answer:

The statements that are true are: A, B, F, G, and H.

Step-by-step explanation:

The statements are:

A. A 90% confidence interval would be narrower than the interval given.

TRUE.

The less confidence, the less conservative is the interval and the narrower it can be. So this statement is true.

 

B. You are 95% confident that the proportion of all seniors who drive to campus is in the interval from .69 to .85.

TRUE.

That is the definition of confidence interval.

C. 95% of all seniors drive to campus from 69% to 85% of the time, and the rest drive more frequently or less frequently.

FALSE.

The confidence interval only has meaning referred to the population proportion, not the individual values. So we can not claim this is true.

D. All seniors drive to campus an average of 77% of the time.

FALSE.

The average is expected to be, with 95% confidence, between 0.69 and 0.85. The sample proportion is 0.77*, and this outcome is used to calculate the confidence interval, but we don't know if the true average is 0.77.

*Sample proportion:

p=(LL+UL)/2=(0.69+0.85)/2=1.54/2=0.77

E. You are 95% confident that the proportion of seniors in the sample who drive to campus is between .69 and .85.

FALSE.

The sample proportion is known and it is 0.77.

F. 77% of the seniors in your sample drive to campus.

TRUE.

This is the sample proportion.

G. If the sampling were repeated many times, you would expect 95% of the resulting samples to have a sample proportion that falls in the interval from .69 to .85.

TRUE.

This is a property of the confidence intervals.

<em>H. If the sampling were repeated many times, you would expect 95% of the resulting confidence intervals to contain the proportion of all seniors who drive to campus.</em>

TRUE.

This is a property of the confidence intervals.

The angle whose sine is 0.39581 is
Lorico [155]
The angle whose sine is 0.39581 is 23.31650126° (round it how you want). 
To calculate this, you need to do the inverse sine of 0.39581. 

Inverse sine looks like sin^{-1}, however, it is not the sine of the angle to the power of -1.

Suppose Primo Pizza's profit on a given day is always the same as the profit of Pizza Supreme's profit 3 days later. Write a fun
Andru [333]

Complete Question

Each summer Primo Pizza and Pizza Supreme compete to see who has the larger summer profit.

Let p(x) represent Primo Pizza's profit (in dollars) x days after June 1. Let s(x) represent Pizza Supreme's profit (in dollars) x days after June 1.

Suppose Primo Pizza's profit each day is 1.9 times as large as the profit of Pizza Supreme.

Write a function formula for p using the function s

Answer:

The function formula for p using the function s is p(x) = 1.9s(x)

Step-by-step explanation:

Given

p(x) = Primo Pizza's profit (in dollars) x days after June 1.

s(x) = Pizza Supreme's profit (in dollars) x days after June 1.

It is given that Primo Pizza's profit each day is 1.9 times as large as the profit of Pizza Supreme.

This implies that

p(x) = 1.9*s(x)

So, p(x) = 1.9s(x)

Hence, the function formula for p using the function s is p(x) = 1.9s(x)

On a piece of paper, graph y&lt; x-3. Then determine which answer matches<br> the graph you drew
Aneli [31]

Answer:

The graph is shown below.

Step-by-step explanation:

Given:

The inequality of a line to graph is given as:

y

In order to graph it, we first make the 'inequality' sign to 'equal to' sign. This gives,

y=x-3

Now, we plot this line on a graph. The given line is of the form:

y=mx+b Where, 'm' is the slope and 'b' is the y-intercept.

So, for the line y=x-3, m=1,b=-3

The y-intercept is at (0, -3).

In order to draw the line correctly we find another point. Let the 'y' value be 0.

Now, 0=x-3\\x=3

So, the point is (3, 0).

Now, we mark these points and draw a line passing through these two points.

Now, consider the line inequality y. The 'y' value is less than x-3. So, the solution region will be region below the line and excluding all the points on the line. So, we draw a broken line and shade the region below it.

The graph is shown below.
