According to a study done by Wakefield Research, the proportion of Americans who can order a meal in a foreign language is 0.47. Suppose a random sample of 200 Americans is asked to disclose whether they can order a meal in a foreign language. What is the probability the proportion of Americans who can order a meal in a foreign language is greater than 0.5

Probability that the proportion of Americans who can order a meal in a foreign language is greater than 0.5 is 0.19766.

Step-by-step explanation:

We are given that according to a study done by Wake field Research, the proportion of Americans who can order a meal in a foreign language is 0.47.

Suppose a random sample of 200 Americans is asked to disclose whether they can order a meal in a foreign language.

Let = sample proportion of Americans who can order a meal in a foreign language

The z-score probability distribution for sample proportion is given by;

          Z =  ~ N(0,1)

where, = sample proportion

p = population proportion of Americans who can order a meal in a foreign language = 0.47

n = sample of Americans = 200

Probability that the proportion of Americans who can order a meal in a foreign language is greater than 0.5 is given by = P( > 0.50)

  P( > 0.06) = P( > ) = P(Z > 0.85) = 1 - P(Z 0.85)

                                                               = 1 - 0.80234 = 0.19766

Now, in the z table the P(Z  x) or P(Z < x) is given. So, the above probability is calculated by looking at the value of x = 0.85 in the z table which has an area of 0.80234.

Therefore, probability that the proportion of Americans who can order a meal in a foreign language is greater than 0.5 is 0.19766.

answer: 370

step-by-step explanation:

remember use pemdas! there are no parentheses or exponents so lets move onto the first part of the equation: multiplication and division. first, lets break the first part of the equation up into something easier using the distributive property. 28 * 12= (20 *12) + (8*12) you know that 20*12 is 240 and 8*12 is 96. add them and you get 336. then, lets solve the last part of the equation (the last part of pemdas is addition and subtraction). 336 plus 34 is 370. hope this !
