Answer:

In order to divide polynomials using synthetic division, you must be dividing by a linear expression and the leading coefficient (first number) must be a 1. For example, you can use synthetic division to divide by x + 3 or x – 6, but you cannot use synthetic division to divide by x2 + 2 or 3x2 – x + 7.

The town of Hayward (CA) has about 50,000 registered voters. A political research firm takes a simple random sample of 500 of th

timama [110]

Answer: (0.076, 0.140)

Step-by-step explanation:

Confidence interval for population proportion (p) is given by :-

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

, where $\hat{p}$ = sample proportion.

n= sample size.

$\alpha$ = significance level .

$z_{\alpha/2}$ = critical z-value (Two tailed)

As per given , we have

sample size : n= 500

The number of Independents.: x= 54

Sample proportion of Independents $\hat{p}=\dfrac{x}{n}=\dfrac{54}{500}=0.108$

Significance level 98% confidence level : $\alpha=1-0.98=0.02$

By using z-table , Critical value : $z_{\alpha/2}=z_{0.01}=2.33$

The 98% confidence interval for the true percentage of Independents among Haywards 50,000 registered voters will be :-

$0.108\pm (2.33)\sqrt{\dfrac{0.108(1-0.108)}{500}}\\\\=0.108\pm2.33\times0.013880634\\\\=0.108\pm0.03234187722\\\\\approx0.108\pm0.032=(0.108-0.032,\ 0.108+0.032)=(0.076,\ 0.140)$

Hence, the 98% confidence interval for the true percentage of Independents among Haywards 50,000 registered voters.= (0.076, 0.140)

Find the surface area of a cylinder with a base radius of 2 yd and a height of 3 yd.

kherson [118]

Answer:

20 π

Step-by-step explanation:

The surface area of a cylinder is made up of 2 circles and its side.

To find the circles' areas, use the area formula for a circle: A = π $r^2$ .

Since our radius is 2 yd, we can substitute r = 2 into this formula.

A = π $2^2$ = 4π

Now remember, this is only the area of once circle. Multiply 4π by 2 to get the area of both circles: 8π.

Now we need to find the surface area of the side.

If we flatten it out, we can see that the side is actually a curled up rectangle.

The length is the circumference of the circle and the width is the height of the cylinder.

To find the circumference, use the circumference formula for a circle: C = 2πr.

Substitute r = 2 into the formula.

C = 2π2 = 4π

Now that we know that the length is 4π, we can multiply the length by the width to find the area of the cylinder's side.

l = 4π

w = 3

A = lw = 4π * 3 = 12π

Finally, we can add the areas of the circles and the side to get the total surface area.

8π + 12π = 20π

And that is your answer!
