Answer:

$(\hat p_A -\hat p_B) \pm z_{\alpha/2} \sqrt{\frac{\hat p_A(1-\hat p_A)}{n_A} +\frac{\hat p_B (1-\hat p_B)}{n_B}}$

And for this case the confidence interval is given by: (0.275, 0.305)

We can estimate the proportion difference as:

$\hat p_D = \frac{0.275+0.305}{2}=0.29$

And the margin of error would be:

$ME=0.305-0.29=0.015$

So then for this case the possibl two options are:

We are 95% confident that the true difference in proportion of Latinos who view global warming as a serious problem and whites who view global warming as a serious problem is 27.5% to 30.5%.

We are 95% confident that the difference between Latino and white opinions about the severity of global warming is 29% with a margin of error of 1.5%.

Step-by-step explanation:

Previous concepts

A confidence interval is "a range of values that’s likely to include a population value with a certain degree of confidence. It is often expressed a % whereby a population means lies between an upper and lower interval".

The margin of error is the range of values below and above the sample statistic in a confidence interval.

Normal distribution, is a "probability distribution that is symmetric about the mean, showing that data near the mean are more frequent in occurrence than data far from the mean".

$p_A$ represent the real population proportion of Latinos who view global warming as a serious problem

$\hat p_A=0.75$ represent the estimated proportion Latinos who view global warming as a serious problem

$n_A$ is the sample size required of Latinos who view global warming as a serious problem

$p_B$ represent the real population proportion of white who view global warming as a serious problem

$\hat p_B =0.46$ represent the estimated proportion of whitewho view global warming as a serious problem

$n_B$ is the sample size required of white

$z$ represent the critical value for the margin of error

Solution to the problem

The population proportion have the following distribution

$p \sim N(p,\sqrt{\frac{p(1-p)}{n}})$

The confidence interval for the difference of two proportions would be given by this formula

$(\hat p_A -\hat p_B) \pm z_{\alpha/2} \sqrt{\frac{\hat p_A(1-\hat p_A)}{n_A} +\frac{\hat p_B (1-\hat p_B)}{n_B}}$

And for this case the confidence interval is given by: (0.275, 0.305)

We can estimate the proportion difference as:

$\hat p_D = \frac{0.275+0.305}{2}=0.29$

And the margin of error would be:

$ME=0.305-0.29=0.015$

So then for this case the possibl two options are:

We are 95% confident that the true difference in proportion of Latinos who view global warming as a serious problem and whites who view global warming as a serious problem is 27.5% to 30.5%.

We are 95% confident that the difference between Latino and white opinions about the severity of global warming is 29% with a margin of error of 1.5%.

1-i need to mix 25% mineral spirits to the varnish i am using what ratio of spirit to varnish am i using? 2-if i use 240 ml of v

In-s [12.5K]

Answer: (a) The ratio of spirit to varnish is 1 : 3

(b) You will need 80 ml of mineral spirits

(c) Ratio = 3 : 2

Step-by-step explanation: (a) If you have to mix 25% mineral spirit to the varnish as required in the question, then the whole solution would effectively contain 25 percent spirit and 75 percent varnish, giving you a hundred percent solution. To express both quantities in ratio can be done as follows;

Ratio = Spirit : Varnish

Ratio = 25 : 75

Ratio = 1 : 3

(b) Next, if you use 240 ml of varnish, this quantity would constitute 75 percent or ratio 3 out of 4 of your total solution. Therefore 240 ml of varnish can be expressed as follows;

240 : x = 3 : 4

Where x is the total solution and the right hand side (3 : 4) expresses the ratio of varnish in relation to the total solution. Hence,

240/x = 3/4

By cross multiplication you now have,

3x = 240 * 4

x = 960/3

x = 320

If x is the total solution which is 320 ml, and varnish constitutes 240 ml, then spirit equals,

Spirit = Total solution - varnish

Spirit = 320 - 240

Spirit = 80.

Therefore, you would need 80 ml of mineral spirits.

(c) Robson's tapestries all measure 1.5 m by 1 m. This can be expressed in whole numbers by first eliminating the decimal. Multiplying both dimensions by 10 results in,

1.5 (10) x 1 (10)

15 x 10

If both measurements can also be expressed as 15 m by 10 m, then reducing to the least terms would result in 3 by 2. That is,

15/5 by 10/5

3 by 2

Expressed as a ratio, this now becomes

Ratio = 3 : 2

A coat at a store is originally priced at 54.99.The store marks the price down to 32.99.To the nearest percent ,what is the perc

AnnZ [28]

For this case what we can do is the following rule of three:
54.99 ------> 100%
32.99 ------> x
We clear the value of
x = (32.99 / 54.99) * (100)
x = 59.99272595
Therefore, the discount percentage is:
100-59.99272595 = 40.00727405%
To the nearest percent;
40%
Answer:
The percent markdown of the coat is:
40%
