A TV report conducted a survey of 947 people in New York City and found that 35% of the population believe that the Yankees will miss the playoffs this year. In the accompanying dialogue, the reporter states, we are 97% confident that the true proportion of people in New York City who believe that the Yankees will miss the playoffs this year lies between 28% and 42% . What does 35% represent in the report

represents the sample proportion of the population

Step-by-step explanation:

From the question we are told that

   The sample size is  n  = 947

   The proportion of the population that believes that the Yankees will miss the playoffs this year is    

From the question we are told the confidence level is  97%

   The lower limit of the confidence level is a = 28%

    The upper limit of the  b = 42%

Generally the sample proportion of this population is mathematically represented as

=>      

=>      

Hence   represents the sample proportion

x=17

step-by-step explanation:

solve 3x-24=x+10

then that makes it 2x=34 because you subtract an x from both sides to get rid of the one on the right, and then you add 24 to both sides to get rid of the 24 on the left

divide by both sides by 2 to get your answer so that you can get your answer
