8 0

Answer:

x=2

Step-by-step explanation:

5x - 6(x + 1) + 8 = 0

Distribute

5x -6x-6+8 =0

Combine like terms

-x+2 = 0

Add x to each side

-x+2+x = 0+x

2 =x

balu736 [363]

Answer:

(a) The sample size required is 43.

(b) The sample size required is 62.

Step-by-step explanation:

The (1 - α) % confidence interval for population mean is:

 CI=\bar x\pm z_{\alpha/2}\ \frac{\sigma}{\sqrt{n}}

The margin of error for this interval is:

 MOE=z_{\alpha/2}\ \frac{\sigma}{\sqrt{n}}

(a)

The information provided is:

<em>σ</em> = 4 minutes

MOE = 72 seconds = 1.2 minutes

Confidence level = 95%

α = 5%

Compute the critical value of z for α = 5% as follows:

 z_{\alpha/2}=z_{0.05/2}=z_{0.025}=1.96

*Use a z-table.

Compute the sample size required as follows:

 MOE=z_{\alpha/2}\ \frac{\sigma}{\sqrt{n}}

       n=[\frac{z_{\alpha/2}\times \sigma}{MOE} ]^{2}

          =[\frac{1.96\times 4}{1.2}]^{2}\\\\=42.684\\\\\approx 43

Thus, the sample size required is 43.

(b)

The information provided is:

<em>σ</em> = 4 minutes

MOE = 1 minute

Confidence level = 95%

α = 5%

Compute the critical value of z for α = 5% as follows:

 z_{\alpha/2}=z_{0.05/2}=z_{0.025}=1.96

*Use a z-table.

Compute the sample size required as follows:

 MOE=z_{\alpha/2}\ \frac{\sigma}{\sqrt{n}}

       n=[\frac{z_{\alpha/2}\times \sigma}{MOE} ]^{2}

          =[\frac{1.96\times 4}{1}]^{2}\\\\=61.4656\\\\\approx 62

Thus, the sample size required is 62.
