It is not a sum, it is a product.

3 times x = 24 (write equation)
3x = 24 (isolate x by dividing the coefficient, 3, on both sides)
/3 /3
x = 8 (this i your answer)

Therefore 3 times 8 gives you 24.

Hey there!

I believe instead of sum, it should be product. A product is a result of a multiplication problem, which is what we're doing when we do something "times" something else.

You could solve this by simply dividing 24 by 3 to get 8. You could then check this by multiply 3 by 8 to get 24 again.

Hope this helped you out! :-)

We need to use the formula to find Margin of Error but through the sample proportion, that is

$E=z*\sqrt{\frac{\hat{p}(1-\hat{p})}{n}}$

We will use a 95% confidence interval, that is a z value of 1.96 (Search in a Normal distribution table)

A) For A our $\hat{p}$ (proportion) is equal to 0.45. So applying the formula,

$E=1.96*\sqrt{\frac{0.45(1-0.45)}{900}}$

$E=3.25\%$

B) We make the same of point A, but change our proportion to 0.35

$E=1.96*\sqrt{\frac{0.35(1-0.35)}{900}}$

$E=3.116\%$

c) We need to calculate the SE through proportion for 0.1, that is

$SE = \sqrt{(\frac{\hat{p_1}(1-\hat{p_1})}{n})+(\frac{\hat{p_2}(1-\hat{p_2})}{n})}$

Then our Error is given by,

$E=z*SE$

$E=1.96*\sqrt(0.45*\frac{0.55}{900}+0.35\frac{0.65}{900}$

$E=0.045$
