In a sample of 150 cars, 18 cars failed a safety inspection. The sampling method had a margin of error of 0.02

What is the interval estimate for the proportion that would fail in the form

(lower limit, upper limit)?

(Lower limit, Upper limit) = (0.10, 0.14)

(Lower limit, Upper limit) = (10%, 14%)

Step-by-step explanation:  

Total number of cars = 150

Cars that failed the safety inspection = 18

The proportion is given by

p = 18/150

p = 0.12

p = 12%

The confidence interval is given by

p ± margin of error

Where margin of error is 0.02

0.12 ± 0.02

Lower limit = 0.12 - 0.02

Lower limit = 0.10

Lower limit = 10%

Upper limit = 0.12 + 0.02

Upper limit = 0.14

Upper limit = 14%

(Lower limit, Upper limit) = (0.10, 0.14)

(Lower limit, Upper limit) = (10%, 14%)

this answer is !

x is the total time in minutes for the free response

you are given number of questions as 15 - m and time per item as 8 minutes

to find x multiply the two givens together:

x = 8 * (15-m) = 8(15-m)
