solution:

a) The population of interest is all the adults

b) The parameter of interest is p, the proportion of adults who own a cell phone

c) The statistic is the proportion, p^, of the sample of 1572 adults who own a cell phone. The value of the sample proportion is 0.83.

d) We dont the the exact proportion with 100 % but we know that the proportion would lie in a certain range with certain degree of confidence

Ahmad just put some money into a cd that pays 11.3% interest compounded semiannually according to the rule of 72 in approximatel
lilavasa [31]
The "rule of 72" says that the doubling time in years is approximately 72 divided by the interest rate in percent. To make the money grow by a factor of 4 requires that it double twice, so will take twice as long as the period to double once.
  2×72/11.3 ≈ 12.7 . . . . years

_____
The "rule of 72" is an approximation. The actual quadrupling time for this interest rate and compounding is about 12.6 years. (The actual product of doubling time and nominal interest rate is about 71.25.)

Explain how knowing 1+7 helps you find the sum for7+1
ss7ja [257]
1+7 and 7+1 are the same equations. The numbers are just switched around .
Example:
1+2=3
2+1+3

<span>They add up to the same answer no matter where they are placed, therefore knowing 1+7 helps you find the sum of 7+1 (again, because they are the same)  </span>

Shayna enlarged a square photo by adding 10 inches to each side so it could be seen on a large poster. The area of the enlarged
Over [174]
The area of a square is expressed as the length of the side to the power of two, A = s^2. We were given the area of the enlarged photo which is 256 in^2. Also, it was stated that the length of the enlarged photo is the length of the original photo plus ten inches. So, from these statements we can make an equation to solve for x which represents the length of the original photo.

A = s^2
where s = (x+10)
A = (x+10)^2 = 256
Solving for x,
x= 6 in.

The dimensions of the original photo is 6 x 6.
