On a scale drawing inch = 1 foot. What are the dimensions on the scale for a room that is 27 feet by 20 feet?

1 answer:

7 0

If 1 inch = 1 foot then 1 foot = 1 inch.
With this, you can make a ratio of 1 foot:1 inch, or 1:1.
Starting with the first dimension, 27 feet, just change the 1 to 27 in the ratio.
27:?
To find how many inches this is in the scale drawing, find how much 1 had to be multiplied by to get to 27. This is 27, since anything times 1 is itself.
Just multiply the other side by 27 as well to get the answer for the first dimension.
1 • 27 = 27
So 27 feet = 27 inches in the scale drawing.
Now do the same for the second dimension.
1:1
20:?
1 • 20 = 20
20:20
The answer is that the scale drawing has dimensions of 27 inches by 20 inches if 1 inch = 1 foot is the scale

Suppose that an internal report submitted to the managers at a bank in Boston showed that with 95 percent confidence, the propor

Answer:

The sample size used to compute the 95% confidence interval is 1066.

Step-by-step explanation:

The (1 - α)% confidence interval for population proportion is:

$CI=\hat p\pm z_{\alpha/2}\sqrt{\frac{\hat p(1-\hat p)}{n}}$

The 95% confidence interval for proportion of the bank's customers who also have accounts at one or more other banks is (0.45, 0.51).

To compute the sample size used we first need to compute the sample proportion value.

The value of sample proportion is:

$\hat p=\frac{Upper\ limit+Lower\ limit}{2}=\frac{0.45+0.51}{2}=0.48$

Now compute the value of margin of error as follows:

$MOE=\frac{Upper\ limit-Lower\ limit}{2}=\frac{0.51-0.45}{2}=0.03$

The critical value of z for 95% confidence level is:

$z_{\alpha/2}=z_{0.05/2}=z_{0.025}=1.96$

Compute the value of sample size as follows:

$MOE=z_{\alpha/2}\sqrt{\frac{\hat p(1-\hat p)}{n}}\\0.03=1.96\times \sqrt{\frac{0.48(1-0.48)}{n}}\\(\frac{0.03}{1.96})^{2}=\frac{0.48(1-0.48)}{n}\\n=1065.404\\n\approx1066$
