Answer:

Hello your question has some missing parts below is the complete question

In a survey of 2065 adults in a certain country conducted during a period of economic​ uncertainty, 63​% thought that wages paid to workers in industry were too low. The margin of error was 4 percentage points with ​95% confidence. For parts​ (a) through​ (d) below, which represent a reasonable interpretation of the survey​ results? For those that are not​ reasonable, explain the flaw.

part a:(We are 95 % confident 63 % of adults in the country during the period of economic uncertainty felt wages paid to workers in industry were too low.)

part b:  We are 91 % to 99 % confident 63 % of adults in the country during the period of economic uncertainty felt wages paid to workers in industry were too low.

part c:  We are 95 % confident the proportion of adults in the country during the period of economic uncertainty who believed wages paid to workers in industry were too low was between 0.59 and 0.67. Is the interpretation reasonable?

part d: In 95 % of samples of adults in the country during the period of economic uncertainty, the proportion who believed wages paid to workers in industry were too low is between 0.59 and 0.67. Is the interpretation reasonable?

Answer : For part A :

The interpretation is flawed. No interval has been provided about the population proportion.  

part B :

The interpretation is flawed. The interpretation indicates that the level of confidence is varying.  

Part C

The interpretation is reasonable.

Part D

The interpretation is flawed. The interpretation suggests that this interval sets the standard for all the other intervals, which is not true.

Step-by-step explanation:

Given data: Population = 2065 ,

probability = 63% = 0.6,

margin of error = 4% = 0.04

confidence interval (95%) = ( 0.59,0.67 )  

For part A :

The interpretation is flawed. No interval has been provided about the population proportion.  this is because the confidence interval is not mentioned

part B :

The interpretation is flawed. The interpretation indicates that the level of confidence is varying.  this is because the confidence interval is a fixed value

Part C

The interpretation is reasonable.

this is because the confident level given is fixed

Part D

The interpretation is flawed. The interpretation suggests that this interval sets the standard for all the other intervals, which is not true.

Setler79 [48]

Answer and Step-by-step explanation:

According to the given situation, The r-value associated with the ordered pairs for the linear function is very nearest to zero which does not results in adequate presentation of the outcome.

A quadratic model could properly comprise of a combination of data, as the set of data has a turning point.

This result in data rises and falls which represents the graph of quadratic's graph

The probability that a person in the United States has type B​+ blood is 12​%. Three unrelated people in the United States are s
V125BC [204]

Answer:

The probability that all three have type B​+ blood is 0.001728

Step-by-step explanation:

For each person, there are only two possible outcomes. Either they have type B+ blood, or they do not. The probability of a person having type B+ blood is independent of any other person. So we use the binomial probability distribution to solve this question.

Binomial probability distribution

The binomial probability is the probability of exactly x successes on n repeated trials, and X can only have two outcomes.

P(X = x) = C_{n,x}.p^{x}.(1-p)^{n-x}

In which C_{n,x} is the number of different combinations of x objects from a set of n elements, given by the following formula.

C_{n,x} = \frac{n!}{x!(n-x)!}

And p is the probability of X happening.

The probability that a person in the United States has type B​+ blood is 12​%.

This means that p = 0.12

Three unrelated people in the United States are selected at random.

This means that n = 3

Find the probability that all three have type B​+ blood.

This is P(X = 3).

P(X = x) = C_{n,x}.p^{x}.(1-p)^{n-x}

P(X = 3) = C_{3,3}.(0.12)^{3}.(0.88)^{0} = 0.001728

The probability that all three have type B​+ blood is 0.001728

A wire that is 0.20 meters long is moved perpendicularly through a magnetic field of strength 0.45 newtons/amperes meter at a sp
Natali [406]

Answer:

Given:

length of the wire = 0.20 meters

magnetic field strength = 0.45 newtons/amperes meter

speed = 10.0 meters per second

emf = B * l * v 

B = flux density ; l = length of the wire ; v = velocity of the conductor

emf = 0.45 newtons / ampere meter * 0.20 meters * 10.0 meters/seconds

emf = 0.90 volts

The emf produced is 0.90 volts.
