Answer: A. 664

Step-by-step explanation:

Given : A marketing firm is asked to estimate the percent of existing customers who would purchase a "digital upgrade" to their basic cable TV service.

But there is no information regarding the population proportion is mentioned.

Formula to find the samples size , if the prior estimate to the population proportion is unknown :

n=0.25(\dfrac{z*}{E})^2

, where E = Margin of error.

z* = Two -tailed critical z-value

We know that critical value for 99% confidence interval = z*=2.576  [By z-table]

Margin of error = 0.05

Then, the minimum sample size would become :

n=0.25(\dfrac{2.576}{0.05})^2

Simplify,

n=0.25\times2654.3104=663.5776\approx664

Thus, the required sample size= 664

Hence, the correct answer is A. 664.

LaTonda rolls two number cubes that are each numbered 1 through 6. What is the probability that the sum of the numbers on the to
ZanzabumX [31]

Answer:

1/4

Step-by-step explanation:

The maximum sum of the two cubes is 6 + 6 = 12

The multiples of 4 until 12 are: 4, 8 and 12.

each cube has 6 possible values, so two cubes have a total of 6 * 6 = 36 possible results

We can have a sum of 4 with the pairs (1,3), (2,2), (3,1).

We can have a sum of 8 with the pairs (2,6), (3,5), (4,4), (5,3), (6,2)

We can have a sum of 12 with the pair (6,6)

So we have a total of 9 pairs that satisfy our condition over a total of 36 possibilities, so the probability is 9 / 36 = 1/4

Suppose that 16 inches of wire costs 48 cents.
padilas [110]
Let’s divide 48 by 16 to see how many cents per inch of wire. 48/16=3 so it costs 3 cents per inch of wire. now all we have to do is multiply 47 by 3, and you will get 141 cents, or $1.41.

the hypotenuse of a 45-45-90 triangle has a length of 10 units. what is the length of one of its legs?
SIZIF [17.4K]
When a triangle is a 45-45-90 triangle, the following rules apply:

-the 2 legs are equal lengths
- the length of the hypotenuse is: the square root of 2 x the length of a leg.
- the length of the leg is: hypotenuse divided by the square root of 2.

if the hypotenuse is 10, then 10 divided by the square root of 2 is how you find the leg.
the square root of 2 is <span>1.41421356237. 
10 divided by </span>1.41421356237 is <span>7.07106781188, which can be rounded to about 7.1. The length of one leg is about 7.1 units!</span>
