The issue of capital punishment is a hotly debated topic. Do more Republicans than Democrats support capital punishment? A researcher randomly selects 100 republicans and 100 democrats and asks them if they support or do not support capital punishment. In this problem, we want to make inferences about: A. one meanB. comparing means from dependent samplesC. comparing means from two independent samplesD. one proportionE. comparing proportions from two independent samplesF. comparing proportions from dependent samples

E. comparing proportions from two independent samples

Step-by-step explanation:

First of all, we have two different populations: Republicans (group A) and Democrats (group B). We want to be able to compare if group A favors/likes certain policy more than group B. In order to do so, we must take independent samples from each population. Only after we have processed our data and calculated the results, can we compare between both groups.

(a) {a₁, a₁r, a₁r², … a₁rⁿ⁻¹, …}

(b) $59 398

step-by-step explanation:

(a) the annual sequence of profits

aₙ = a₁rⁿ⁻¹

the model for the sequence of profits is {a₁, a₁r, a₁r², … a₁rⁿ⁻¹, …} .

(b) profit after 15 yr

  a₁ = $ 30 000

  r = 1.05

a₁₅ = 30 000 × 1.05¹⁴

a₁₅ = 30 000 × 1.979 93

a₁₅ = $59 398

the profit in year 15 will be $59 398.
