Using the z-distribution, we have that:
a) The confidence interval is: (24.33%, 30.37%).
b) The correct option is: No, the confidence interval includes 0.25, so the true percentage could easily equal 25%.
What is a confidence interval of proportions?A confidence interval of proportions is given by:
[tex]\pi \pm z\sqrt{\frac{\pi(1-\pi)}{n}}[/tex]
In which:
[tex]\pi[/tex] is the sample proportion.z is the critical value.n is the sample size.In this problem, we have a 90% confidence level, hence[tex]\alpha = 0.9[/tex], z is the value of Z that has a p-value of [tex]\frac{1+0.9}{2} = 0.95[/tex], so the critical value is z = 1.645.
The other parameters are given as follows:
[tex]n = 427 + 161 = 588, \pi = \frac{161}{588} = 0.2735[/tex]
Then the bounds of the interval are:
[tex]\pi - z\sqrt{\frac{\pi(1-\pi)}{n}} = 0.2735 - 1.645\sqrt{\frac{0.2735(0.7265)}{588}} = 0.2433[/tex]
[tex]\pi + z\sqrt{\frac{\pi(1-\pi)}{n}} = 0.2735 + 1.645\sqrt{\frac{0.2735(0.7265)}{588}} = 0.3037[/tex]
As a percentage, the interval is: (24.33%, 30.37%).
25% is part of the interval, hence the correct statement is:
No, the confidence interval includes 0.25, so the true percentage could easily equal 25%.

The value of a house wa shilling 600,000 in 2005.It increased by 25% in 2006 and 10% in 2007 but dropped by 15% in 2007 find its value in 2008
Given:
The value of a house is 600,000 in 2005.
It increased by 25% in 2006 and 10% in 2007 but dropped by 15% in 2007.
To find:
The value of the house in 2008.
Solution:
We have,
Value of house in 2005 = 600,000
It increased by 25% in 2006.
Value of house in 2006 = [tex]600,000+\dfrac{25}{100}600,000[/tex]
= [tex]600,000+150,000[/tex]
= [tex]750,000[/tex]
It increased by 10% in 2007
Value of house in 2007 = [tex]750,000+\dfrac{10}{100}750,000[/tex]
= [tex]750,000+75,000[/tex]
= [tex]825,000[/tex]
But it dropped by 15% in 2007.
Value of house in 2008 = [tex]825,000-\dfrac{15}{100}825,000[/tex]
= [tex]825,000-123,750[/tex]
= [tex]701,250[/tex]
Therefore, the value of the house in 2008 is 701,250.

The dock foreman gets to work each day at 5:30 A.M. He goes to lunch at 11:01 A.M. and gets back to work at noon. He goes home for the day at 3:20 P.M.
How many hours does the foreman work in a 5−day work week?
Answer:
The foreman works approximately 44 hours in a 5−day workweek.
Step-by-step explanation:
In one day the dock foreman works the following hours:
[tex]t = (11 h + 01 min*\frac{1 h}{60 min}) - (5 h + 30 min*\frac{1 h}{60 min}) + 15 h + 20 min*\frac{1 h}{60 min} - 12 h = 8.85 h = 8 h + 51 min[/tex]
Now, in 1 5-day work week the man works:
[tex]T = 5*t = 5*8.85 h = 44.25 h = 44 h + 15 min[/tex]
Therefore, the foreman works approximately 44 hours in a 5−day workweek.

(5 pts) It takes Jack 3 hours longer to write holiday cards than it takes Jill. Together, they can write them
in 2 hours. How long does it take each person to write the cards working alone?
Answer:
Jack needs 6 hours and Jill needs 3 hours.
Step-by-step explanation:
Let's define the variables:
X = rate at which Jack can write a holiday card.
Y = rate at which Jill can write a holiday card.
Each of them will need a given time to write a card, such that:
X*T = 1 card
We know that Jack needs 3 more hours to write a card than Jill, then Jill needs 3 hours less than Jack, so if Jack needs T hours, Jill will need T - 3 hours
Then we have the equation:
Y*(T - 3 hr) = 1 card
And we also know that when they work together, they need 2 hours, then:
(X + Y)*2 hr = 1 card.
So we have 3 equations:
X*T = 1 card
Y*(T - 3 hr) = 1 card
(X + Y)*2 hr = 1 card.
Now let's ignore the card part just for the equations, then we get:
X*T = 1
Y*(T - 3 hr) = 1
(X + Y)*2 hr = 1
To solve it, we first need to isolate one variable in one of the equations, let's isolate T in the first equation, we get:
T = 1/X
Now we can replace this in the second equation to get:
Y*((1/X) - 3hr) = 1
So now we have two equations:
(X + Y)*2 hr = 1
Y*((1/X) - 3hr) = 1
We need to do the same, isolate one variable in one of the equations, let's isolate Y in the above one:
Y*2hr = 1 - X*2hr
Y = (1 - X*2hr)/2hr
Now we can replace this in the other equation to get:
((1 - X)/2hr)*((1/X) - 3hr) = 1
Now we can solve this for X:
((1 - X)/2hr)*((1/X) - 3hr) = 1
(1 - X)*((1/X) - 3hr) = 2 hr
1/X - 3hr - X*2hr/X + X*2hr*3hr = 2hr
1/X - 3hr - 2hr + X*6hr^2 = 2hr
1/X + X*6hr^2 = 2hr + 3 hr + 2 hr = 7hr
1/X + X*6hr^2 = 7hr
Now we can multiply all by X to get:
X/X + X*(X*6hr^2) = 7hr*X
Now we have the quadratic equation:
(6hr^2)*X^2 - (7hr)*X + 1 = 0
We can find the solutions of this equation if we use the Bhaskara's formula, the solutions are:
[tex]X = \frac{-(-7hr) +- \sqrt{(-7hr)^2 - 4*(6hr^2)*1} }{2*6hr^2} = \frac{7hr +- 5hr}{12 hr^2}[/tex]
Then we have two solutions:
X = (7hr + 5hr)/12hr = 1 hr^-1
And this is the rate at which Jack writes a card, so the actual units are:
X = 0.167 card/hr
Then Jill's rate will be:
Y = (1 - X*2hr)/2hr = (1 - 1card/hr*2hr)/2hr = -0.5 card/hr
So we have a negative rate, this makes no sense, so we can discard this option. The other solution for X is:
X = (7hr - 5hr)/12hr = 0.166... hr^-1
And this is the rate at which Jack writes a card, so the actual units are:
X = 0.166... card/hr
If we have this, then the rate for Jill will be:
Y = Y = (1 - X*2hr)/2hr = (1 - 0.167card/hr*2hr)/2hr = 0.333 card/hr
Then we have:
X = 0.167 card/hr
If we use the first equation, we get:
(0.166... card/hr)*T = 1 card
T = 1 card/((0.166... card/hr)) = 6 hours
Then Jack needs 6 hours to write a card.
And we know that Jill needs 3 hours less than that, then Jill needs 3 hours.
A researcher wants to determine whether the number of minutes adults spend online per day is related to gender. A random sample of 315 adults was selected and the results are shown below. Find the expected frequency for the cell E2,2 to determine if there is enough evidence to conclude that the number of minutes spent online per day is related to gender. Round to the nearest tenth if necessary. Gender| 0-30| 30-60| 60-90| 90+ Male| 23|35|76|46 Female|31|42|46|16
Answer:
The expected frequency for the cell E2,2 is = 33
Step-by-step explanation:
The given data is
Gender | 0-30| 30-60| 60-90| 90+ Totals
Male | 23 | 35 | 76 | 46 180
Female | 31 | 42 | 46 | 16 135
Totals 54 77 122 62 315
The expected frequency for the cell E2,2 is :
Expected for the (30-60 box for females) = Total of (30-6)/ (total )* females
= ( 77/315)135= 33
Here p= 77/315 and n= 135
therefor X= pn = 33
χ²= (33-42)²/33= 2.455 ( for the single value of E2,2=33)
Expected for the (30-60 box for males) = Total of (30-6)/ (total )* males
= ( 77/315)180= 44
χ²= (44-42)²/44= 0.09
The critical region is χ² (0.05) 3 ≥ χ²= 11.34
Let the null and alternate hypothesis be
H0:the number of minutes spent online per day is not related to gender
against
Ha: the number of minutes spent online per day is related to gender
The single value of χ² for E2,2 = 2.45 is less than the critical value of 11.34.

5. The students in class usually drink a lot of water to help with their studies. I have found that
with five students in the class at least 30 litres of water is needed. How much water will be
needed when there are 30 students in the class?
Answer:
For s students, at least 6s liters of water will be needed. So, for 30 students, at least 6*30 = 180 liters of water will be needed.
Step-by-step explanation:
This question is solved by proportions, using rule of three.
I am going to say that:
s is the number of students.
l is the number of liters of water needed for s students.
I have found that with five students in the class at least 30 litres of water is needed.
This means that:
[tex]\frac{s}{l} = \frac{5}{30}[/tex]
[tex]5l = 30s[/tex]
[tex]l = \frac{30s}{5}[/tex]
[tex]l = 6s[/tex]
This means that for s students, at least 6s liters of water will be needed. So, for 30 students, at least 6*30 = 180 liters of water will be needed.

Identify each angle pair as adjacent, vertical, or neither. Identify Structure Refer to the diagram at the right. Identify each angle pair as adjacent, vertical, or neither.
Answer:
angle 5 and angle 6 are adjacent angles, all adjacent means is directly next to each other, another example would be 6 and 1; 1 and 2; 2 and 3, etc
and example of vertical angles would be 6 and 3, they basically form an x, another example is 5 and 2, 1 and 4, etc
an examples of angles that would qualify as neither would be 1 and 3, they are not next to one another, thus they are not adjacent, and they do not form an x so they are not vertical, another example would be 5 and 3
A college newspaper interviews a psychologist about student ratings of the teaching of faculty members. The psychologist says that the evidence indicates that the correlation between the research productivity and teaching rating of faculty members is close to zero. The paper reports this as Professor McDaniel said that good researchers tend to be poor teachers, and vice versa. Which statement in plain language (i.e. without the word correlation) correctly explains the psychologist's meaning?
A)There is little connection between research productivity and teaching rating.
B) While bad researchers tend to be good teachers, there is no similar relationship between good researchers and bad teachers.
C) While good researchers tend to be bad teachers, there is no similar relationship between bad researchers and good teachers.
D) Good researchers tend to be bad teachers and bad researchers tend to be good teachers.
Answer:
The correct option is A.
Step-by-step explanation:
As the psychologist states that there is no correlation found between teaching ratings and research productivity of the same faculty member, meaning that there is no significant relationship between the two. The paper's report states quite the opposite, that there is an inverse correlation. The statement that explains what the psychologist says correctly is A. There is little connection between teaching rating and research productivity.
