With some simple rearrangement, we can rewrite the numerator as

$2x^3 - 3x^2 - x + 4 = 2(x^3 - x) - 3x^2 + x + 4 \\\\ ~~~~~~~~ = 2x(x^2-1) - 3(x^2 - 1) + x + 1 \\\\ ~~~~~~~~ = (2x-3)(x^2-1) + x+1$

Then factorizing the difference of squares, $x^2-1=(x-1)(x+1)$ , we end up with

$\dfrac{2x^3 - 3x^2 - x + 4}{x^2 - 1} = \dfrac{(2x-3)(x-1)(x+1) + x+1}{(x-1)(x+1)} \\\\ ~~~~~~~~ = \boxed{2x-3 + \dfrac1{x-1}}$

Answer:

a) n = 1037.

b) n = 1026.

Step-by-step explanation:

In a sample with a number n of people surveyed with a probability of a success of $\pi$ , and a confidence level of $1-\alpha$ , we have the following confidence interval of proportions.

$\pi \pm z\sqrt{\frac{\pi(1-\pi)}{n}}$

In which

z is the zscore that has a pvalue of $1 - \frac{\alpha}{2}$

The margin of error is:

$M = z\sqrt{\frac{\pi(1-\pi)}{n}}$

99% confidence level

So $\alpha = 0.01$ , z is the value of Z that has a pvalue of $1 - \frac{0.01}{2} = 0.995$ , so $Z = 2.575$ .

(a) Assume that nothing is known about the percentage to be estimated.

We need to find n when M = 0.04.

We dont know the percentage to be estimated, so we use $\pi = 0.5$ , which is when we are going to need the largest sample size.

$M = z\sqrt{\frac{\pi(1-\pi)}{n}}$

$0.04 = 2.575\sqrt{\frac{0.5*0.5}{n}}$

$0.04\sqrt{n} = 2.575*0.5$

$(\sqrt{n}) = \frac{2.575*0.5}{0.04}$

$(\sqrt{n})^{2} = (\frac{2.575*0.5}{0.04})^{2}$

$n = 1036.03$

Rounding up

n = 1037.

(b) Assume prior studies have shown that about 55% of full-time students earn bachelor's degrees in four years or less.

$\pi = 0.55$

$M = z\sqrt{\frac{\pi(1-\pi)}{n}}$

$0.04 = 2.575\sqrt{\frac{0.55*0.45}{n}}$

$0.04\sqrt{n} = 2.575*\sqrt{0.55*0.45}$

$(\sqrt{n}) = \frac{2.575*\sqrt{0.55*0.45}}{0.04}$

$(\sqrt{n})^{2} = (\frac{2.575*\sqrt{0.55*0.45}}{0.04})^{2}$

$n = 1025.7$

Rounding up

n = 1026.

Answer: 22%, 0.22, 11/50

Step-by-step explanation:

As a percent, 44/200 × 100 =

0.22 × 100

= 22%

As a decimal, divide 44 by 200 using a calculator; 44÷200 = 0.22

As a fraction in the simplest form, 44/200, we find the greatest common factor for the numerator and denominator, which is 4, divide 4 by numerator = 11

Divide 4 by denominator = 50

44/200 as a fraction = 11/50
