Based on the NYC Department of Health Community Health Survey in 2010, a 95% confidence interval for the proportion of New Yorkers who were tested for HIV in the past 12 months is (29.9%, 32.9%). If the population size is 6 million in 2010, with 95% confidence, we know that at least how many New Yorkers were tested for HIV within the past 12 months?

With 95% confidence, at least 1,794,000 were tested for HIV within the past 12 months

Step-by-step explanation:

The lower bound of the confidence interval is 29.9%.

So, with 95% confidence, we know that at least 29.9% of the New York population tested for HIV.

Out of 6 million, that is:

0.299*6000000 = 1,794,000

With 95% confidence, at least 1,794,000 were tested for HIV within the past 12 months

answer: evaluate the objective function at each vertex to determine which - and -values, if any, maximize or minimize the function. example: find the minimum value and maximum value of the objective function f ( x , y ) = 4 x + 5 y , subject to the following constraints

look at the picture.

y-intercept for the function on a picture is 4 → point (0, 4).

y-intercept for the function

is for x = 0. substitute:

y-intercept is 8 → point (0, 8).
