Confidence interval is 0.2911

Step-by-step explanation:

Given that 32% of fans sport is basketball as favorite sport. So total number of fans is,

$32\%\times 1000$

$= \dfrac{32}{100}\times 1000$

=320

So 320 fans favorite sport is basket ball.

Now find sample proportion ,

$\widehat{p}=\dfrac{number\:of\:people\:in\:the\:sample}{total\:number\:of\:people}$

Substituting the value,

$\widehat{p}=\dfrac{320}{1000}$

$\widehat{p}=0.320$

Formula for confidence interval is,

$CI=\widehat{p}\pm z\sqrt{\dfrac{\widehat{p}\left (1-\widehat{p}\right )}{n}}$

To calculate the z value.

$Confidence Level=1-\alpha$

$0.95=1-\alpha$

$0.05=\alpha$

Now divide above value by 2,

$\dfrac{0.05}{2}=\dfrac{\alpha}{2}$

$0.025=\dfrac{\alpha}{2}$

To find the value of z score calculate the area under the curve as follows

$A=\dfrac{1+CL}{2}$

$A=\dfrac{1+0.95}{2}$

$A=\dfrac{1.95}{2}$

A=0.975

On z table, find the value of 0.975. So the row corresponding to 0.975 is 1.9 and column corresponding to 0.975 is 0.06. Adding these two values the z score is 1.96.

or find the value from excel by using command as follows,

=NORM.S.INV(0.025)= -1.959963985

Now substituting the value,

$CI=0.320\pm 1.96\sqrt{\dfrac{0.320\left (1-0.320\right )}{1000}}$

$CI=0.320\pm 0.02891$

Lower end of the interval is,

CI=0.320- 0.02891

CI=0.2911

Upper end of the interval is,

CI=0.320+ 0.02891

CI=0.3489

Therefore 95% confidence interval is 0.2911

Answer from: Quest

54 kilometers per hour

step-by-step explanation:

according to rules:

1 km = 1000 meter

which means that 1 meter = 1/1000 km

1 hour = 3600 second [ as 1 hour = 60 min = 60 *60 seconds ]

which means that 1 second = 1/3600 hour

therefore, 1 kilometer/hour = $(1/1000)/(1/3600)=3600/1000=18/5=3.6 kilometer/hour$

thus to convert 15 meter per second to kilometer per hour, we multiply 15 to 3.6 kilometer/hour.

15 meter/second= $15*3.6=54 kilometer/hour$ which is the required answer.

Answer from: Quest

so firstly, we need to isolate the y variables to be able to solve these inequalities. firstly, add 0.5x on both sides of the first inequality and subtract 1.5x on both sides of the second inequality:

now since the slope is positive for the first inequality, this means that the line going upwards belongs to the first inequality, and the line going downwards belongs to the second inequality.

next, since y ≥ in the first inequality, this means that the shaded region will be above the first inequality's line, thus shading regions a and b.

next, since y ≤ in the second inequality, this means that the shaded region is going to be below this line, thus shading regions a and c.

since both lines shade region a, this means that region a is the solution.
