EleoNora [17]3 years ago
8 0

Answer:

The data the department should collect is the incidents that occur at that intersection.

Step-by-step explanation:

The question told us that the Public Work's department is concerned that an intersection is dangerous and needs a stop sign. Due to them saying that it is dangerous, we would want to know how many incidents occur as that will let us know if it is dangerous or not.

a researcher at a major clinic wishes to estimate the proportion of the adult population of the united states that has sleep dep
Anna11 [10]

Answer:

The estimate of a population proportion is approximately 541.

Step-by-step explanation:

We can solve the the problem by using the formula for minimum sample needed for interval estimate of a population proportion which is given by the formula

n = pq ((Z/2) / E)^2

As, p is not defined so we use the standard p and q which is 0.5 and 0.5.

The reason for this is we have to choose form 0.1 to 0.9 both values of p and q, we will find the maximum value of pq occurs when they both are 0.5.

Next, we will find the value of (Z/2) by looking at the Z-table, we will find that at 98% confidence (Z/2) = 2.326. Now we start substituting the values in the above formula

n = (0.5)×(0.5) × (2.326/0.05)^2

n = 541.027

n ≅ 541.

I'm reasking a previous question to make it more clear. This is a Linear Equation that I must solve. It includes fractions (the
Ugo [173]

Assuming the equation is:

\frac{x}{2}-\frac{10x-25}{10}=3(x+3)-(x-14)


When fractions involve numeric denominators, the fractions can be removed by multiplying (both sides) by the LCM of the denominators.


Here the denominators are 2 and 10, hence the LCM is 10.


Multiply by 10 on both sides, not forgetting to distribute when multiplying on the right side:

10\frac{x}{2}-10\frac{10x-25}{10}=10*3(x+3)-10(x-14)

simplify, remember that there are always implied parentheses around numerators and denominators:

5x-(10x-25)=30(x+3)-10(x-14)

Now, distribute, i.e. remove parentheses and distribute:

5x-10x+25=30x+90-10x+140

Simplify

-5x+25=20x+230

transpose terms

25-230=20x+5x

solve

x=-205/25=-41/5


In this particular case, we can also take advantage of the term

(10x-25)/10=5(2x-5)/10=(2x-5)/2 which greatly simplifies the solution process, because the LCM will then be 2 instead of 10.

If we do that, the solution will be:

Multiply by 2 on both sides, not forgetting to distribute when multiplying on the right side:

\frac{x}{2}-\frac{10x-25}{10}=3(x+3)-(x-14)

simplify, remember that there are always implied parentheses around numerators and denominators:

2\frac{x}{2}-2\frac{2x-5}{2}=2*3(x+3)-2(x-14)

x-(2x-5)=6(x+3)-2(x-14)

Now, distribute, i.e. remove parentheses and distribute:

x-2x+5=6x+18-2x+28

Simplify

-x+5=4x+46

solve

5-46=4x+x

-41=5x

x=-41/5

with the same results.

Are these rates equivalent, 96 words typed for 3 minutes; 160 words typed for 5 minutes
monitta
<h2>Greetings</h2>

Answer:

Yes, they are.

Step-by-step explanation:

<h3>1st rate)</h3>

Lets simplify both rates to the rate typer per minute.

(m is minutes)

3m = 96

Divide both sides by 3:

\frac{3m}{3} = \frac{96}{3}

m = 32

So the rate is 32 words per minute.

<h3>2nd rate</h3>

5m = 160

Divide both sides by 5:

\frac{5m}{5} = \frac{160}{5}

m = 32

<h3>So because the rates per minute are the same, they are equivalent.</h3>
<h2>Hope this helps!</h2>

Seven blue and four red balls are to be arranged in order. How many ways can this be done if (1) The blue balls are distinguisha
Sav [38]

Answer:

1) n = 39916800

2) n = 1663200

3) n = 330

Step-by-step explanation:

1) If the blue balls are distinguishable as are the red balls

Then you can arrange these balls in the following ways, we must use a permutation

In totally we have 11 balls, then

n = 11P11

n = \frac{11!}{(11-11)!} = 11! = 39916800\\  

2) If Blue balls are distinguishable, but the red balls are identical

In this case, we need to do a correction due to the red balls are identical and we cannot identify the difference when we interchange two red balls

n = \frac{11!}{4!}  = \frac{39916800}{24} = 1663200

3) If the balls of each color are indistinguishable

We proceed equal to the before case but we include a correction due to blue balls also

n = \frac{11!}{4!*7!} = \frac{39916800}{24*5040} = 330
