Answer:

The sample proportion is 0.158.

Step-by-step explanation:

In a confidence interval of proportions, we have the lower bound and the upper bound of the interval. The sample proportion is the halfway points between these bounds, that is, the sum of these bounds divided by 2.

In this problem, we have that:

Lower bound: 0.142

Upper bound: 0.174

Sample proportion: (0.142+0.174)/2 = 0.158

The sample proportion is 0.158.

Write the expression as the sine, cosine, or tangent of an angle. sin 5x cos x - cos 5x sin x
mrs_skeptik [129]

Answer:

sin 5x cos x - cos 5x sin x = sin(4x)

Step-by-step explanation:

Given that the trigonometric expression,

sin 5x cos x - cos 5x sin x

Here we use the "sum and difference formulas"

Sum and Difference Formulas

sin(A+B)=sin A cos B + cos A sin B

sin(A-B)=sin A cos B - cos A sin B

cos(A+B)=cos A cos B - sin A sin B

cos(A-B)=cos A cos B + sin A sin B

So,

sin 5x cos x - cos 5x sin x = sin (5x - x)

sin 5x cos x - cos 5x sin x =  sin(4x)

That's the final answer.

saw5 [17]

Answer:

The correct answer is option C.

Step-by-step explanation:

The lower your interest rate is, the lower your monthly payments are. This is true. The interest rate is directly proportional to monthly or yearly payments. If the rates are high, the installments are high and if the rate of interest is low, the installments are lower.

As a sales person Jonathan is paid 50 per week +3% of the total Amount he sells. This week he wants to earn at least 100. Write
steposvetlana [31]

Answer:

The Inequality with integer coefficient for the total sales is 5000+3x\geq 10000

Hence Jonathan should make total sales of at least <u>1667</u> to earn at least 100.

Step-by-step explanation:

Given:

Amount paid per week = 50

Addition amount = 3% of Total sales.

Let the Total sales be 'x'.

∴ Additional amount = \frac{3}{100}x

Amount he wants to earn this week  \geq 100

We need to write the inequality with integer coefficient for the total sales and also to find the total sales.

Solution:

We cans say that;

Amount paid per week plus Additional amount should be greater than or equal to Amount he wants to earn this week.

framing in equation form we get;

50+\frac{3}{100}x\geq 100

Now we will make the denominator common using LCM we get;

\frac{50\times100}{100}+\frac{3}{100}x\geq 100

\frac{5000}{100}+\frac{3}{100}x\geq 100

\frac{5000+3x}{100}\geq 100

Multiplying both side by 100 we get;

100 \times\frac{5000+3x}{100}\geq 100\times 100\\\\5000+3x\geq 10000

Hence The Inequality with integer coefficient for the total sales is 5000+3x\geq 10000

On solving the above equation we get;

Subtracting both side by 5000 we get;

5000+3x-5000\geq 10000-5000\\\\3x\geq 5000

Dividing both side by 3 we get;

\frac{3x}{3}\geq \frac{5000}{3}\\\\x\geq 1666.67

Hence Jonathan should make total sales of at least <u>1667</u> to earn at least 100.
