A random sample of 150 mortgages in the state of Florida was randomly selected. From this sample, 17 were found to be delinquent on their current payment. The 98% confidence interval for the proportion based on this sample is .

The 98% confidence interval for the proportion based on this sample is (0.0531, 0.1735).

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 .

For this problem, we have that:

98% confidence level

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

The lower limit of this interval is:

The upper limit of this interval is:

The 98% confidence interval for the proportion based on this sample is (0.0531, 0.1735).

step-by-step explanation:

given that ab is divided into equal parts as

ac, cd, de, ef, fg, gh, hi, ib.

from this we find that f is the midpoint of ab.

so using mid point formula we find

f = (3,7)

similarly considering fb, we get

h = mid point of fb = ((6,6) and g, mid point of fh is

g = (9/2, 13/2)

i is mid point of hb

so i =(15/2,11/2)
