According to a Pew Research Center nationwide telephone survey of adults conducted March 15 to April 24, 2011, 69% of college graduates said that their college education gave them maturity (Time, May 30, 2011). Suppose that this survey included n=1390 college graduates. A. What is the point estimate of the corresponding population proportion?

A. The point estimate corresponding to the population proportion is 959 college graduates

Step-by-step explanation:

The given parameters are;

The percentage of the college graduates that said that college education gave them maturity, p' = 69%

The number of college graduates included in the study, n = 1,390

The point estimation is the process of using a sample data for the calculation of a single value

The point estimate of a population proportion, p', in a sample where there are 'x' number of success and the sample size is 'n', is given as follows;

p' = x/n

Therefore, we have;

x = n × p'

A. The point estimate, x', corresponding to the population proportion, p' = 69%, is given as follows;

x = 1,390 × 69/100 ≈ 959 (we round down to the nearest whole number (college graduate)

Therefore;

The point estimate corresponding to the population proportion, x = 959

15

step-by-step explanation:

we are given the following expression and we are to solve it and find the product:

-13 × (-5)

solving the given expression in the standard order of solving a mathematical expression, beginning with the opening of brackets and then multiplying the terms and changing their signs.

-3 × -5 = 15 (answer is positive because when negative is multiplied with negative, it gives a positive answer)
