In a survey of 1000 large corporations, 250 said that, given a choice between a job candidate who smokes and an equally qualified nonsmoker, the nonsmoker would get the job (USA Today).(a) Let p represent the proportion of all corporations preferring a nonsmoking candidate. Find a point estimate for p.(b) Find a 0.95 confidence interval for p.(c) As a news writer, how would you report the survey results regarding the proportion of corporations that hire the equally qualified nonsmoker? What is the margin of error based on a 95% confidence interval?

- 11 of 11 I Review | Constants Periodic Table Suppose that you want to construct a line with slope m = 3 that passes through the point (2, 1). You would begin by setting up the equation y = 3x +b If you plug in the coordinates for any point on that line, the two sides of the equation will be equal. Once you've done this, you can solve for b. What is the value of b?
