Katrina wants to estimate the proportion of adults who read at least 10 books last year. to do​ so, she obtains a simple random

sample of 100 adults and constructs a​ 95% confidence interval. matthew also wants to estimate the proportion of adults who read at least 10 books last year. he obtains a simple random sample of 400 adults and constructs a​ 99% confidence interval. assuming both katrina and matthew obtained the same point​ estimate, whose estimate will have the smaller margin of​ error? justify your answer.

E=Z*sqrt (p(1-p)/N), where E= error margin, p=proportion, N=sample size

Katrina's margin error at 85% confidence interval: E=1.96*sqrt (p(1-p)/100) = 0.196 sqrt (1(1-p))

Mathew's margin error at 99% confidence interval: E= 2.58*sqrt (p(1-p)/400) = 0.129 sqrt (p(1-p))

Since both obtained same estimate of proportion (that is, value of p), it can be seen that Mathew's estimate will have a small error (That is, 0.129 is smaller than 0.196). This can be attributed to larger sample size although a wider confidence (99%) interval was considered.

Dafna11 [192]

The inequality that represents the possible ways nina can eat 12 or more grams of protein is 2x + 3y ≥ 12

<h3>What is an equation?</h3>

An equation is an expression that shows the relationship between two or more number and variables.

Let x be the number of cheese squares that she eats and y is the number of turkey slices that she eats. If nina can eat 12 or more grams of protein, hence:

2x + 3y ≥ 12

The inequality that represents the possible ways nina can eat 12 or more grams of protein is 2x + 3y ≥ 12

I need help factoring this polynomial please.
Mashcka [7]

You get (2x+3)(4x^2-6x+9) when you factor 8x^3+27=0. You just divide by 3 to simplify it.

Planes S and R both intersect plane T .
neonofarm [45]
<h2>[A] Plane S contains points B and E.</h2>

False

As indicated in Figure A below, Plane S contains only point B (remarked in red). Point E (remarked in blue) lies on plane R.

<h2>[B] The line containing points A and B lies entirely in plane T.</h2>

True

As indicated in Figure B below, the line containing points A and B lies entirely in plane T. That line has been remarked in red and it is obvious that lies on plane T.

<h2>[C] Line v intersects lines x and y at the same point.</h2>

False

As indicated in Figure C below, line v intersects lines x and y, but line x in intersected at point B while line y (remarked in red) is intersected at point A (remarked in blue), and they are two different points, not the same.

<h2>[D] Line z intersects plane S at point C.</h2>

True

As indicated in Figure D below, line z that has been remarked in yellow, intersects plane S at point C that has been remarked in blue.

<h2>[E]  Planes R and T intersect at line y.</h2>

True

As indicated in Figure E below, planes R and T intersect at line y. The line of intersection has been remarked in red.
