Of the population of all fruit flies we wish to give a 90% confidence interval for the fraction which possess a gene which gives immunity to fungal infections. To this end we have obtained a random sample of 400 fruit flies. We find that 280 of the flies in the sample possess the gene. Give the margin of error for the 90% confidence interval. Round your answer to 3 decimal

The margin of error for the 90% confidence interval is of 0.038.

Step-by-step explanation:

In a sample with a number n of people surveyed with a probability of a success of , and a confidence level of , we have the following confidence interval of proportions.

In which

z is the zscore that has a pvalue of .

The margin of error is:

To this end we have obtained a random sample of 400 fruit flies. We find that 280 of the flies in the sample possess the gene.

This means that

90% confidence level

So , z is the value of Z that has a pvalue of , so .

Give the margin of error for the 90% confidence interval.

The margin of error for the 90% confidence interval is of 0.038.

solution:

as, mean is defined as sum of all the observations divided by total number of observations.

and , median is mid value of the data whether arranged in ascending order or descending order.

consider, roadsters:

2,3,4,5,6,7,8,9

mean =

also, median= , because number of observations is even, so median is mean of two mid values.

now, coming to bandits

2,3,4,5,6

mean =  

median = 4, as number of observations is odd.

so, roadsters has greater median as well mean than bandits.

→option a is true about the repairs performed on 2 types of cars:

bandits have lower median and mean than roadsters.

the answer is 96 degrees

step-by-step explanation:

you have to realize that a line equals 180 degrees
