3. A medical devices company wants to know the number of MRI machines needed per day. A previous study found a standard deviatio

n of four hours. How many MRI machines must the company study in order to have a margin of error of 0.5 hours when calculating a 90% confidence interval

Answer:

173 MRI machines

Step-by-step explanation:

Margin of error E = 0.5

Confidence interval 90% = 1-0.9 = 0.1

Standard deviation = 4 hours

Number of MRI machines needed per day n, = [(z alpha/2 * SD)/E]²

Z alpha/2 = 1.645 at alpha = 0.1

Inputting these values into n we have that

[(1.645*4)/0.5]²

= 13.16²

= 173.18 is approximately equal to 173

The company has to study 173 machines.

Trigonometry, can anybody help??
WINSTONCH [101]

Answer:

angle B: 39

AC: 7.288

AB: 11.58

(note: you cut off the part about rounding so make sure that it's rounded correctly before you put in your answer)

Step-by-step explanation:

To solve this we will use SOH, CAH, TOA

we have the angle and the one opposite to it which means we can use either SOH or TOA

let's use TOA

tan(51)=(9/x)

x= 7.288

We can now use pahtagaryous theroem to solve for the hyptonouse

we have

9²+7.288²=C²

C=11.58

Finally, to find angle B we will recall that the angles of a triangle must add to 180.

51+90+a=180

a=39

Create a linear function that has a rate of change of -4 and a solution at (-5,2)
san4es73 [151]

You would use the point-slope equation of y-y₁=mx(x-x₁)

So the rate of change is the slope and equals m, so m=-4

and has a solution at (-5,2) which would be the (x₁, y₁) and then it is just plugging in the numbers

y - (2) = (-4)(x - (-5))

y - 2 = -4 (x+5)

y - 2 = -4x - 20

y = -4x - 18
