Finding the sample size for estimating a population proportion.

The formula is:

n = (z/m)^2 p~(1−p~)

where:
Z is the z value of the confidence level where 95% is equal to 1.96

M is the margin of error where 0.05

And p~ is the estimated value of the proportion where it is 0.50

Solution:

n = (1.96/0.05)^2 (0.5) (1-0.5)

= 1.536.64 (0.5) (0.5)

= 768.32 (0.5)

= 384.16

This is the minimum sample size, therefore we should round it up to 385. The answer is letter c.

Alexis is a lawyer. She bills her clients $100 an hour for her services. She can also mow her lawn in 30 minutes. She can hire s
Papessa [141]

Answer:

b) $49

Step-by-step explanation:

The question here is not if Alexis can mow the lawn faster or slower than the person who hires (actually, the time that the person hired took to mow the lawn is irrelevant).

The important part is the time Alexis can save hiring someone:

  • Alexis mow her lawn in 30 minutes.
  • Alexis earns $100 an hour. Then 30 minutes of her time is worthy $50.

Then, paying $50 or less is a good choice for Alexis.

Therefore the answer is b) $49.

20 POINTS 20 POINTS Each of these equations represents the same function written in different forms.
Makovka662 [10]

Answer:

Factor form of the equation makes it easiest to see the zeros of the function.

Step-by-step explanation:

f(x)=(x−4)(x−6), because you can see when each factor is equal to zero.

Just equate the factor with zero and you will get its zeros.

f(x)=(x−4)(x−6)

Let f(x)= 0

Therefore

(x−4)(x−6) = 0

Therefore

(x−4) = or (x−6)= 0

Therefore, x = 4 or x = 6

Hence, 4 and 6 are the zeros of the given function.

1) Which of the following has a probability of 0?
melamori03 [73]

Answer:

3. rolling a sum of 20 with two standard dice

Step-by-step explanation:

If something has a probability of 0 then there is no chance of it happening

A standard die goes up to 6. The max sum you can get by rolling two dice would be 12 as 6 + 6 = 12. So you have no chance of rolling a sum of 20 with two standard dice therefore the probability would be 0.
