Suppose that out of 10,351 convicts who escaped from u. s. prisons, only 7767 were recaptured. let p represent the proportion of all escaped convicts who will eventually be recaptured. find a point estimate for p. round your answer to four decimal places.

0.7504

Step-by-step explanation:

Let p represent the proportion of all escaped convicts who will eventually be recaptured.

Given : Out of 10,351 convicts who escaped from U.S. prisons, only 7767 were recaptured.

Then , the proportion of convicts who escaped from U.S. prisons, only 7767 were recaptured will be :-

Hence, the point estimate for p = 0.7504

step-by-step explanation:

d. 24+-0.114

step-by-step explanation:

the question requires us to calculate the approximate 95% confidence interval for the mean number of ounces of ketchup per bottle in the sample given the following statistics;

sample mean = 24

standard deviation, σ = 0.4

sample size , n = 49

the confidence interval for a population mean is calculated using the formula;

sample mean ± z-score*(σ/sqrt(n))

the z-score associated with a 95% confidence interval, from the standard normal tables, is;

1.96

substituting these values into the formula;

24 ± 1.96*(0.4/7)

= 24 ± 0.112

from the alternatives given, choice d is closest to the above expression;
