Answer:          410 possible points

To solve for the possible points in the course, use a proportion and cross multiply.

<h2>What is a proportion?</h2>

A proportion is two fractions that are equal to each other. For the fractions to be equal, they are proportionate. In our math problem, percentage is proportionate the the number of points.

The fractions represent information you have, and one variable will represent what you are solving for.

<h2 /><h3>Given</h3>

Your points = 361

Points to get an 'A' = your points + 8

'A' = 90% of possible points

<h3>Find the points needed for an 'A' at 90%</h3>

Points to get an 'A' = your points + 8

= 361 + 8

= 369

<h3>State variables</h3>

let <em>x</em> be the amount of possible points

<h3 /><h3>Write a proportion</h3>

We know the number of points for 90% is 369 points. Remember that 90% is the same as 90/100.

Keep the information with the same units inside the same fraction. Here, percentage is represented by the first fraction. Points is represented by the second fraction.

\displaystyle{\frac{90}{100}=\frac{369}{x}}

<h3>Solve</h3>

We can solve using cross multiplication. This is when we multiply each numerator by the denominator from the other fraction.

90x = 369*100        Simplify by multiplying.

90x = 36,900            Isolate the variable <em>x</em>.

\displaystyle{\frac{90x}{90} = \frac{36,900}{90}}           Divide both sides by 90 to cancel out 90 on the left.

\displaystyle{x = \frac{36,900}{90}}              Divide.

x = 410                    Solved for <em>x</em>, representing the possible points.

∴ The possible points in the art course is 410.

The state education commission wants to estimate the fraction of tenth grade students that have reading skills at or below the e
Korolek [52]

Answer:

A sample of 499 is needed.

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 given by:

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

In this question, we have that:

\pi = 0.21

90% confidence level

So \alpha = 0.1, z is the value of Z that has a pvalue of 1 - \frac{0.1}{2} = 0.95, so Z = 1.645.

How large a sample would be required in order to estimate the fraction of tenth graders reading at or below the eighth grade level at the 90% confidence level with an error of at most 0.03

We need a sample of n, which is found when M = 0.03. So

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

0.03 = 1.645\sqrt{\frac{0.21*0.79}{n}}

0.03\sqrt{n} = 1.645\sqrt{0.21*0.79}

\sqrt{n} = \frac{1.645\sqrt{0.21*0.79}}{0.03}

(\sqrt{n})^2 = (\frac{1.645\sqrt{0.21*0.79}}{0.03})^2

n = 498.81

Rounding up

A sample of 499 is needed.
