Answer:

Step 1 − Divide the decimal number to be converted by the value of the new base.

Step 2 − Get the remainder from Step 1 as the rightmost digit (least significant digit) of new base number.

Step 3 − Divide the quotient of the previous divide by the new base.

Step 4 − Record the remainder from Step 3 as the next digit (to the left) of the new base number.

Step-by-step explanation:

Repeat Steps 3 and 4, getting remainders from right to left, until the quotient becomes zero in Step 3.

The last remainder thus obtained will be the Most Significant Digit (MSD) of the new base number.

Maslowich

Answer: 2285

Step-by-step explanation:

Formula to find the sample size is given by :-

$n=p(1-p)(\dfrac{z_c}{E})^2$

, where p = prior estimate of population proportion.

E= Margin of error.

$z_c$ = z-value for confidence interval of c.

Given : Confidence interval : 95%

From the z-value table , the z-value for 95% confidence interval = $z_c=1.96$

The General Social Survey reported a sample where about 61% of US residents thought marijuana should be made legal.

i.e. the prior estimate of population proportion of US residents thought marijuana should be made legal : p=0.61

[∵ sample proportion is the best estimate for population proportion.]

Margin of error : E= 2%=0.02

Now, the required minimum sample size would be :-

$n=0.61(1-0.61)(\dfrac{1.96}{0.02})^2$

Simplify ,

$n=0.2379\times9604=2284.7916\approx2285$

Thus , we need to survey <u>2285</u> Americans .

rodikova [14]

Answer:

36a2 - b2

Step-by-step explanation:

( 6a + b)( 6a - b)

36a2 - b2

6^2 a2 - b^2

x2 y2 = (xy)2

(6a)2 - b^2

(6a + b)(6a - b)

Hope that helps :)

Use your TVM Solver to determine the future balance in a mutual fund account (a type of investment account) if you make weekly p

Paladinen [302]

Answer:

$46,141.71

Step-by-step explanation:

This looks about right, based on weekly deposits for the duration. However, I cannot vouch for it entirely, as the number of weekly deposits in 15 years will actually be 782.

_____

Computing this by hand doing the initial balance separately from the weekly deposits, I get a total of $46,252.10 using 782 weekly deposits. For that purpose, I tried to figure an equivalent weekly interest rate given monthly compounding and the fact there are 52 5/28 weeks in a year on average.

I suspect the only way to get this to the cent would be to build a spreadsheet with payment dates and interest computation/payment dates. Some months, there would be 5 deposits between interest computations; some years there would be 53 deposits.
