A recent study was conducted in which a random sample of men and a random sample of women were surveyed about whether they were fans of a professional football team. The study found that 39 percent of men in the sample were fans and 22 percent of women in the sample were fans. A 99 percent confidence interval for the difference in the proportion of fans of a professional football team between men and women was reported as (0.133,0.207) . Which of the following statements is the best interpretation of the interval? a. The difference in the percents of fans of a professional football team between men and women is 17%.
b. There is a 99% chance of finding a difference between 13.3% and 20.7% for the percents of men and women who are fans of a professional football team.
c. We are 99% confident that the percent of men who are fans of a professional football team exceeds that of women by at least 20.7%.
d. We are 99% confident that the difference in the sample percents of men and women who are fans of a professional football team is between 13.3% and 20.7%.
e. We are 99% confident that the difference in the population percents of all men and women who are fans of a professional football team is between 13.3% and 20.7%.

e. We are 99% confident that the difference in the population percents of all men and women who are fans of a professional football team is between 13.3% and 20.7%.

Step-by-step explanation:

x% confidence interval:

A confidence interval is built from a sample, has bounds a and b, and has a confidence level of x%. It means that we are x% confident that the population mean is between a and b.

In this question:

99% confidence interval for the difference  in the proportion of fans of a professional football team between men and women is of (0.133, 0.207)

The interpretation is that we are 99% sure that the true proportion is in this interval for the entire population, so the correct answer is given by option e.

-3

step-by-step explanation:

a drawing really does here:

so i draw the horizontal line y=2 and the vertical line x=-2 at this intersection i put b (this is where my right angle is going to be).   so point b is at (-2,2).   point a is 5 units long and is also on y=2 so this point has to be (3,2) or (-7,2) -doesn't matter i will go with (3,2).

now we know c is at (-2,y) we don't know the y yet bet we know that c is on x=-2.

we have the area of the triangle is .5bh=12.5

we know the base length is 5 (ab)

we have the height is (2-y) if you look at your

plug in

.5(5)(2-y)=12.5

solve for y to get the y-coordinate for c

2.5(2-y)=12.5

divide both sides by 2.5 giving:

2-y=5

now subtract 2 on both sides

-y=3

y=-3
