Answer:

With a .95 probability, the sample size that needs to be taken if the desired margin of error is .04 or less is of at least 216.

Step-by-step explanation:

In a sample with a number n of people surveyed with a probability of a success of \pi, and a confidence level of 1-\alpha, we have the following confidence interval of proportions.

\pi \pm z\sqrt{\frac{\pi(1-\pi)}{n}}

In which

z is the zscore that has a pvalue of 1 - \frac{\alpha}{2}.

The margin of error:

M = z\sqrt{\frac{\pi(1-\pi)}{n}}

For this problem, we have that:

p = 0.1

95% confidence level

So \alpha = 0.05, z is the value of Z that has a pvalue of 1 - \frac{0.05}{2} = 0.975, so Z = 1.96.

With a .95 probability, the sample size that needs to be taken if the desired margin of error is .04 or less is

We need a sample size of at least n, in which n is found M = 0.04.

M = z\sqrt{\frac{\pi(1-\pi)}{n}}

0.04 = 1.96\sqrt{\frac{0.1*0.9}{n}}

0.04\sqrt{n} = 0.588

\sqrt{n} = \frac{0.588}{0.04}

\sqrt{n} = 14.7

(\sqrt{n})^{2} = (14.7)^{2}

n = 216

With a .95 probability, the sample size that needs to be taken if the desired margin of error is .04 or less is of at least 216.

AfilCa [17]

Answer:

The answer is C. -2

Step-by-step explanation:

The formula for slope is referred to "rise over run". So in this case you rise 2 over one (2/1) That gives you 2. But since the line is going down is -2

Han can run 100 meters in 20 seconds how long will it take him to run 3000 metres
Juliette [100K]

Answer:

600 seconds

Step-by-step explanation:

In this case we have to calculate the speed;

Speed = Distance/Time

Speed = 100/20 = 5 mph

Next to get our answer we have to calculate the amount of time

Time = Distance/Speed

Time = 3000/5 = 600 seconds

Write the standard form of the equation of the circle with the given characteristics.
SOVA2 [1]
<h2><u>Circle Equations</u></h2>

<h3>Write the standard form of the equation of the circle with the given characteristics.</h3><h3>Center: (0, 0); Radius: 2</h3>

To determine the equation of a circle, use the standard form of a circle (x - h)² + (y - k)² = r² where,

  • <u>(h, k)</u> is the center; and
  • <u>r</u> is the radius

Substitute the values of the center and radius to the standard form.

<u>Given:</u>

<u>(0, 0)</u> - <u>center</u>

<u>2</u> - <u>radius</u>

  • (x - h)² + (y - k)² = 2²
  • (x - 0)² + (y - 0)² = 4
  • x² + y² = 4

<u>Answer:</u>

  • The equation of the circle is <u>x² + y² = 4</u>.
