Fewer young people are driving. In 1983, of -year-olds had a driver's license. Twenty-five years later that percentage had dropped to 75% (University of Michigan Transportation Research Institute website, April 7, 2012). Suppose these results are based on a random sample of -year-olds in 1983 and again in 2008. Requried:
a. At 95% confidence, what is the margin of error and the interval estimate of the number of 19 years old drivers in 1983?
b. At 95% confidence, what is the margin of error and the interval estimate of the number of 19 years old drivers in 2008?
c. Is the margin of error is same in part (a) and (b).

a) MOE = 0.0190

b) MOE = 0.0245

c) No, because the margin of error depends on the standard error, and the later depends on the proportion. The closer the proportion to 0.5, the larger the standard error (for equal sample size).

Step-by-step explanation:

The question is incomplete:

Fewer young people are driving. In 1983, 87% of 19-year-olds had a driver's license. Twenty-five years later that percentage had dropped to 75% (University of Michigan Transportation Research Institute website, April 7, 2012). Suppose these results are based on a random sample of  1200 19-year-olds in 1983 and again in 2008.

a) The sample proportion is p=0.87.

The standard error of the proportion is:

The critical z-value for a 95% confidence interval is z=1.96.

The margin of error (MOE) can be calculated as:

b) The sample proportion is p=0.75.

The standard error of the proportion is:

The critical z-value for a 95% confidence interval is, as in point a, z=1.96.

The margin of error (MOE) can be calculated as:

c) No, because the margin of error depends on the standard error, and the later depends on the proportion. The closer the proportion to 0.5, the larger the standard error (for equal sample size).

step-by-step explanation:

the required function is .

step-by-step explanation:

from the given table it is noticed that the graph passing through (-3,7), (0,4), (3,1) and (8,-4).

it is a linear function because the value of y is decrease by one as the value of x increase by 1.

the slope of the function is

the slope of the function is -1 and the y-intercept is 4.

the slope intercept form is

where, m is slope and b is y-intercept.

therefore the required function is . the graph of this function is shown below.
