You collect a random sample of size n from a population and calculate a 98% confidence interval. Which of the following strategies produces a new confidence interval with a decreased margin of error?

A: Use a 99% confidence level.
B: Use a 95% confidence level.
C: Decrease the sample size.
D: Use the same confidence level, but compute the interval n times. Approximately 2% of these intervals will be larger.
E: Nothing can guarantee that you will obtain a larger margin of error. You can only say that the chance of obtaining a larger interval is 0.02.

Answers

Answer 1

Answer:

B: Use a 95% confidence level.

Step-by-step explanation:

In the case when the random sample size from a population is collected and it determined the 98% confidence interval so that decrease the margin of error is to use a 95% confidence interval as it is needed to have a less critical value

So according to the given options, the option B is correct

Y=3\4+2

Slope=rise/run. 3\4
Y-intercept = 2

Answer (assuming it can be in slope-intercept form):

[tex]y = \frac{3}{4} x+2[/tex]

Step-by-step explanation:

When knowing the y-intercept and a slope of a line, you can write its equation in slope-intercept form, or y = mx + b format.  

1) First, find the slope. Use two points from the graph. We can see that the points (0,2) and (4,5) are on the line, therefore substitute their x and y values into the slope formula [tex]m = \frac{y_2-y_1}{x_2-x_1}[/tex] and solve:

[tex]m = \frac{(5)-(2)}{(4)-(0)} \\m = \frac{5-2}{4-0} \\m = \frac{3}{4}[/tex]

Thus, the slope is [tex]\frac{3}{4}[/tex].

2) Next, find the y-intercept of the line by looking at the graph. The y-intercept is the point at which the line intersects the y-axis. By reading the graph, we can see that that point is (0,2), thus 2 is the y-intercept.

3) Now, using the slope-intercept formula [tex]y = mx + b[/tex], substitute the found values for the [tex]m[/tex]  and the [tex]b[/tex] to write the equation of the line.

Since [tex]m[/tex] represents the slope, substitute [tex]\frac{3}{4}[/tex] in its place. Since [tex]b[/tex] represents the y-intercept, substitute 2 in its place. This gives the following answer and equation:

[tex]y = \frac{3}{4} x+2[/tex]

Kami went out to eat. She ordered a sandwich and chips. The total was $12.50 including tax. How much will she pay with a 15% tip

Answers

Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:

Hello! So with finding out the total + tax, we just multiply $12.50 by .15 (that is our 15% tip). Then we add that new number to $12.50 and that is the total with the tip! Let's do it,

12.50 * .15 = 1.88

12.50 + 1.88 = $14.38

Hope that helps, let me know if you have questions!

In a particular lottery, 5 winning numbers are drawn from a set of 37 numbers. What is the probability of picking exactly 2 of the winning numbers in this lottery? Round your answer to the nearest
thousandth (three decimal places).

Answers

Since 5 winning numbers are draw and there are exactly 2 winning numbers, the other 3 numbers chosen have to be incorrect.

The 2 numbers picked right, there are 5C2=10 different possibilities.

The other 3 numbers are just picked from the rest of the 32 numbers. Getting there are 32C3=4960 different possibilities.

For each set of 2 correct winning numbers, you could have the 4960 different losing numbers to match up to make a unique set. This meant that there are 4690*10=46900 different total possibilities.

Now the total different outcomes of how you can choose the numbers are 37C5=435897 outcomes.

Now the way to find probabilities is want/total

The want is 46900 and the total is 435897

Doing the division you get the number rounded to the nearest thousandths as   0.107 or in percent form as

10.759% chance of picking exactly 2 winning numbers.

This seems like a competition problem of some sort therefore I assume that you already know what combinations in form nCk and permutation in form nPk means.

The slope-intercept form is y=mx+b, where m is the slope and b is the y-intercept.

y= −1/2x+8

Step-by-step explanation:

Hope it is helpful...

Hey there!

The answer is y = [tex]\frac{-1}{2}[/tex]x + 8

To put it into slope-intercept form, we must get "y" by itself on one side of the equation. First, to do this, we will subtract "x" from both sides.

2y = -x + 16

Lastly, we divide both sides by 2

y = [tex]\frac{-1}{2}[/tex]x + 8

A angle bisector is a ray that bisects an angle into two congruent parts.

Using that information, Angle CAP=Angle PAB.

Angle PAB or Angle 2 =22 so using transitive Property, CAP or angle 1 =22.

We are asked to find the full angle so using Angle Addition

Angle CAP+ Angle PAB=CAB

determine an equation and the radius for the circle that has its centre at the origin (0,0) passes through the point A 4-3

Answers

Given:

The center of the circle is at (0,0).

The circle passes through the point A(4,-3).

To find:

The radius and the equation of the circle.

Solution:

Distance formula:

[tex]d=\sqrt{(x_2-x_1)^2+(y_2-y_1)^2}[/tex]

The radius of the circle is the distance between the points (0,0) and (4,-3).

[tex]r=\sqrt{(4-0)^2+(-3-0)^2}[/tex]

[tex]r=\sqrt{(4)^2+(-3)^2}[/tex]

[tex]r=\sqrt{16+9}[/tex]

[tex]r=\sqrt{25}[/tex]

[tex]r=5[/tex]

So, the radius of the circle is 5 units.

The standard form of a circle is

[tex](x-h)^2+(y-k)^2=r^2[/tex]

Where, (h,k) is center of circle and r is the radius.

Putting h=0, k=0, r=5, we get

[tex](x-0)^2+(y-0)^2=5^2[/tex]

[tex]x^2+y^2=25[/tex]

Therefore, the radius of the circle is 5 units and the equation of the circle is [tex]x^2+y^2=25[/tex].
