A random sample of 1,175 people in a certain country were asked whether they thought climate change was a problem. The sample pr

oportion of those who think climate change is a problem was calculated, and a 95 percent confidence interval was constructed as (0.146, 0.214). Which of the following is a correct interpretation of the interval?
a. We are 95 percent confident that any sample of 1,175 people will produce a sample proportion between 0.146 and 0.214. b. We are 95 percent confident that the proportion of all people in the country who think climate change is a problem is between 0.146 and 0.214.
c. We are 95 percent confident that the proportion of people in the sample who think climate change is a problem is between 0.146 and 0.214.
d. The probability that 95 percent of all people in the country who think climate change is a problem is between 0.146 and 0.214.
e. The probability is 0.95 that the proportion of all people in the country who think climate change is a problem is between 0.146 and 0.214.

Answer: c. We can state with 95 percent confidence that the percentage of individuals surveyed who regard climate change as a significant issue is between 0.146 and 0.214.

Step-by-step explanation:

Interpretation of the 95% confidence interval :

This means one can be 95% certain that the actual proportion in the broader population falls within this range.

From the provided details, we identify the population parameter as p (the proportion of individuals that believe in climate change )

As a result, the 95 percent confidence interval is represented as (0.146, 0.214)

Interpretation: We can assert with 95% confidence that the actual population proportion of individuals who perceive climate change as a problem ranges from 0.146 to 0.214.

<ptherefore the="" accurate="" choice="" is="">

c. We are 95 percent confident that the proportion of people in the sample who think climate change is a problem is between 0.146 and 0.214.

According to the manufacturer, about 26% of sour candy in a package of Sandy's Sours are grape. What is the probability that the
Zina [12379]

Response:


Step-by-step explanation:

Assuming there are 100 sour candies, thus-  

since 26% of the candies are grape, it follows that 26% of 100 candies means we have 26 grape candies

Consequently, the remaining candies that are not grape amount to 100-26 = 74

Applying the multiplication principle:

P(A ∩ B) = P(A)/ P(B|A)  

 Initially, there are 26 grape candies, therefore the probability of selecting the first grape candy =  26C1 = 26

 After choosing the first one, we put the selected grape candy back, so there are still 100 candies total P(B|A) = 100C3 = 100 x 99 x 98 x 97!/3! X 97!

= 50 x 33 x 98

Thus, the probability becomes 1/ 50 x 33 x 98 x 26

= 1/4204200

The area of the postcard is 24 square inches. What is the width b of the message (in inches)?
Leona [12618]
Area of a rectangle = length x width
For this postcard:
length = 4 in
width = (3+b) in
area = 24 in^2

Substitute into the area formula:
24 = 4 x (3+b)
24 = 12 + 4b
24 - 12 = 4b
12 = 4b
b = 3 in

Therefore:
the length of the postcard = 4 inch
the width of the postcard = b+3 = 3 + 3 = 6 inch

An equiangular triangle has one side of length six inches. What is the height of the triangle, drawn from that side, to the near
AnnZ [12381]
The height of the triangle measures 5.2 inches. An equiangular triangle has equal measures for all interior angles, which means it is equivalent to an equilateral triangle. Since all angles equal 60 degrees, applying the Pythagorean theorem enables us to calculate the height based on the provided side length.
