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
, and a confidence level of
, we have the following confidence interval of proportions.

In which
z is the zscore that has a pvalue of 
The margin of error is:

99% confidence level
So
, z is the value of Z that has a pvalue of
, so
.
(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
, which is when we are going to need the largest sample size.






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.

So






Rounding up
n = 1026.
Answer:
-4 < -13(a+6)-17
-4<-13a+(-78)-17
-4<-13a+(-95)
-4<-13a-95
91<-13a
-91>13a
-7>a
Step-by-step explanation:
Answer:
-45 < x < 5 (see graph below)
Step-by-step explanation:
to isolate x by itself, subtract 20 from all three terms of the equation:

once you finish subtracting 20, x should be by itself, making the equation graphable:

since x is not equal to -45 or 25, the graph line endings have open circles.
