The FBI wants to determine the effectiveness of their 10 Most Wanted list. To do so, they need to find out the fraction of people who appear on the list that are actually caught.

Step 2 of 2 : Suppose a sample of 1390 suspected criminals is drawn. Of these people, 514 were captured. Using the data, construct the 98% confidence interval for the population proportion of people who are captured after appearing on the 10 Most Wanted list. Round your answers to three decimal places.

Step-by-step explanation:

Confidence interval is written as

Sample proportion ± margin of error

Margin of error = z × √pq/n

Where

z represents the z score corresponding to the confidence level

p = sample proportion. It also means probability of success

q = probability of failure

q = 1 - p

p = x/n

Where

n represents the number of samples

x represents the number of success

From the information given,

n = 1390

x = 514

p = 514/1390 = 0.37

q = 1 - 0.37 = 0.63

To determine the z score, we subtract the confidence level from 100% to get α

α = 1 - 0.98 = 0.02

α/2 = 0.02/2 = 0.01

This is the area in each tail. Since we want the area in the middle, it becomes

1 - 0.01 = 0.99

The z score corresponding to the area on the z table is 2.33. Thus, confidence level of 98% is 2.33

Therefore, the 98% confidence interval is

0.37 ± 2.33√(0.37)(0.63)/1390

Confidence interval = 0.37 ± 0.0302

answer: the resulting cross section is a rectangle. solution: a plane parallel to the base of a triangular prism will intersect a cross section that is the same shape as its bases. so the cross section is a triangle.
