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.

Given f(x)=3^(x-2) and g(x)=f(3x)+4, write the function rule for function g and describe the types of transformations that occur
klio [65]

Answer with Step-by-step explanation:

We are given that

f(x)=3^{x-2}

g(x)=f(3x)+4

We have to write the rule for function g and describe the transformation between f and g.

Compress the function by scale factor 3 and the translation rule is given by

(x,y)\rightarrow (3x,y)

Then, we get h(x)=f(3x)=3^{3x-2}

Now, shift the y coordinate 4 units above the origin.

Then, the translation rule is given by

(x,y)\rightarrow (x,y+4)

Then , we get

g(x)=3^{3x-2}+4

Factor 8x^3y + 38x^2y - 10xy
Sophie [7]

Answer:

2xy(x+5)(4x−1)

Step-by-step explanation:

1 Find the Greatest Common Factor (GCF).

GCF = 2xy

2 Factor out the GCF. (Write the GCF first. Then, in parentheses, divide each term by the GCF.)

2xy (8x^3y + 38x^2y/2xy + −10xy/2xy)

3 Simplify each term in parentheses.

2xy(4x^2 +19x−5)

4 Split the second term in 4x^2+19x-5 into two terms.

2xy(4x^2 +20x−x−5)

5 Factor out common terms in the first two terms, then in the last two terms.

2xy(4x(x+5)−(x+5))

6 Factor out the common term x+5.

2xy(x+5)(4x−1)
