The margin of error is 3.92.

To find the margin of error, we use the formula

z*(σ/√n)

We first find the z-score.  
Convert 95% to a decimal:  0.95
Subtract from 1: 1-0.95 = 0.05
Divide by 2:  0.05/2 = 0.025
Subtract from 1:  1-0.025 = 0.975

Using a z-table (http://www.z-table.com) we see that the z-score for this is 1.96:
1.96*(σ/√n)

Since the variance is 900, the standard deviation (σ) is √900 = 30:
1.96*(30/√n)

The sample size, n, is 225:
1.96*(30/√225) = 1.96*(30/15) = 1.96*2  = 3.92

What is the value of the expression below 6^1/4 . 6^1/4 . 6^1/4 . 6^1/4
adell [148]

Answer:

6

Step-by-step explanation:

The expression can be written as follows;

6^1/4 . 6^1/4 . 6^1/4 . 6^1/4 = (6^1/4)^4

So the powers will multiply each other;

= 6^(1/4 * 4) = 6^1 = 6

Solve for n 50 points <br><br> a=p(1+r/n)^rn
Andreyy89

Answer:

n = \frac{r}{\sqrt[nt]{\frac{a}{p}} -1 }

Step-by-step explanation:

a=p(1+\frac{r}{n} )^{nt}

\frac{a}{p} =(1+\frac{r}{n} )^{nt}

\sqrt[nt]{\frac{a}{p}}  =(1+\frac{r}{n} )

\sqrt[nt]{\frac{a}{p}} -1 =(\frac{r}{n} )

n = \frac{r}{\sqrt[nt]{\frac{a}{p}} -1 }

[ Do not confuse, as there are 2 n's, one in subject and another as power. We can never make the power or in a root, the subject. In order to solve for n, we have to make the character "n", the subject. ]
