Evaluate the following expression. (-3)-2

1 answer:

3 0

Integers are whole numbers that are either positive or negative. Operation of signs is important when dealing with integers.
In this case, -3 and -2 are integers that are being added.
if we add -3 by -2 we get -6 because when a negative number is added to a negative number the negative sign does not change
thus, (-3)-2 = -5

An automobile manufacturer would like to know what proportion of its customers are not satisfied with the service provided by th

butalik [34]

Answer:

a) A sample size of 5615 is needed.

b) 0.012

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:

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

99.5% confidence level

So $\alpha = 0.005$ , z is the value of Z that has a pvalue of $1 - \frac{0.005}{2} = 0.9975$ , so $Z = 2.81$ .

(a) Past studies suggest that this proportion will be about 0.2. Find the sample size needed if the margin of the error of the confidence interval is to be about 0.015.

This is n for which M = 0.015.

We have that $\pi = 0.2$

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

$0.015 = 2.81\sqrt{\frac{0.2*0.8}{n}}$

$0.015\sqrt{n} = 2.81\sqrt{0.2*0.8}$

$\sqrt{n} = \frac{2.81\sqrt{0.2*0.8}}{0.015}$

$(\sqrt{n})^{2} = (\frac{2.81\sqrt{0.2*0.8}}{0.015})^{2}$

$n = 5615$

A sample size of 5615 is needed.

(b) Using the sample size above, when the sample is actually contacted, 12% of the sample say they are not satisfied. What is the margin of the error of the confidence interval?

Now $\pi = 0.12, n = 5615$ .

We have to find M.

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

$M = 2.81\sqrt{\frac{0.12*0.88}{5615}}$

$M = 0.012$

1+1=3 proof needs step by step explanation

Vsevolod [243]

Answer:

1+1=3, See explenation

Step-by-step explanation:

1+1=2 but thats basically 2.1 because whole numbers are boring, but 2.1 is basically 2.2 because we want it as an even number, but 2.2 is basically 2.3 because 2.3 is the luckiest number, which is basically 2.5 if you think about it because 2.3 looks like 2/3 and two thirds can't be a whole (which is why we say 3/3 instead of 2/3) and 2.5 rounded up is 3. So thats how 1+1=3
