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.

3x+7=13 what's the answer?
Dafna11 [192]
The first step to this is to subtract 7 from both sides. The +7 and -7 cancel each other out leaving you with 3x=6 then divide by 3 on each side giving you x=2.

Answer:

b. w= 8x^2-2y / y

Step-by-step explanation:

Given:

(2*x^2)/y = (w+2)/4

Isolating w, we get:

w = (8*x^2)/y - 2  

Multiplying and dividing the second term in the right-side of the equality by y, we get:

w = (8*x^2)/y - 2*y/y  

Subtracting the fractions:

w = (8*x^2 - 2y)/y

Can someone please help me!!
Vladimir [108]

Answer:

#18)  <em>m</em>∠B = 107°

#19) <em>m</em>∠B = 17°

Step-by-step explanation:

*Supplementary angles are angles who's measures equal 180°

*Complementary angles are angles who's measures equal 90°

#18) If ∠A is 73°, then we must subtract 73 from 180.

180 - 73 = 107

This means that <em>m</em>∠B = 107°.

#19) If ∠A is 73°, then we must subtract 73 from 90.

90 - 73 = 17

This means that <em>m</em>∠B = 17°.
