N = 600, the sample size

Because 102 voters said 'Yes' to the proposition, the sample proportion is
\hat{p} =  \frac{102}{600} =0.17 \\
1 - \hat{p} = 1-0.17 = 0.83

The standard error is
SE_{p} =  \sqrt{ \frac{\hat{p}(1-\hat{p})}{n} } = \sqrt{ \frac{(0.17)(0.83)}{600} } = 0.0153

The confidence interval is
\hat{p} \pm z^{*} SE_{p}

From tables, z* = 1.96  at the 95% confidence level.
Therefore the confidence interval is
0.17 \pm 1.96(0.0153) = (0.14, 0.20)

Answer:  (0.14, 0.20)

Math help Please!!!!
GalinKa [24]

Part A. What is the slope of a line that is perpendicular to a line whose equation is −2y=3x+7?

Rewrite the equation  −2y=3x+7 in the form y=-\dfrac{3}{2}x-\dfrac{7}{2}. Here the slope of the given line is  m_1=-\dfrac{3}{2}. If m_2 is the slope of perpendicular line, then

m_1\cdot m_2=-1,\\ \\m_2=-\dfrac{1}{m_1}=\dfrac{2}{3}.

Answer 1: \dfrac{2}{3}

Part B. The slope of the line y=−2x+3 is -2. Since -\dfrac{3}{2}\neq -2\quad \text{and}\quad \dfrac{2}{3}\neq -2, then lines from part A are not parallel to line a.

Since -2\cdot \left(-\dfrac{3}{2}\right)=3\neq -1\quad \text{and}\quad -2\cdot \dfrac{2}{3}=-\dfrac{4}{3}\neq -1, both lines are not perpendicular to line a.

Answer 2: Neither parallel nor perpendicular to line a

Part C. The line parallel to the line 2x+5y=10 has the equation 2x+5y=b. This line passes through the point (5,-4), then

2·5+5·(-4)=b,

10-20=b,

b=-10.

Answer 3: 2x+5y=-10.

Part D. The slope of the line y=\dfrac{x}{4}+5 is \dfrac{1}{4}. Then the slope of perpendicular line is -4 and the equation of the perpendicular line is y=-4x+b. This line passes through the point (2,7), then

7=-4·2+b,

b=7+8,

b=15.

Answer 4: y=-4x+15.

Part E. Consider vectors \vec{p}_1=(-c-0,0-(-d))=(-c,d)\quad \text{and}\quad \vec{p}_2=(0-b,a-0)=(-b,a). These vectors are collinear, then

\dfrac{-c}{-b}=\dfrac{d}{a},\quad \text{or}\quad -\dfrac{a}{b}=-\dfrac{d}{c}.

Answer 5: -\dfrac{a}{b}=-\dfrac{d}{c}.

find the equation of the circle where (-9,4),(-2,5),(-8,-3),(-1,-2) are the vertices of an inscribed square.
solniwko [45]
Check the picture below, so, that'd be the square inscribed in the circle.

so... hmm the diagonals for the square are the diameter of the circle, and keep in mind that the radius of a circle is half the diameter, so let's find the diameter.

\bf \textit{distance between 2 points}\\ \quad \\
\begin{array}{lllll}
&x_1&y_1&x_2&y_2\\
%  (a,b)
&({{ -2}}\quad ,&{{ 5}})\quad 
%  (c,d)
&({{ -8}}\quad ,&{{ -3}})
\end{array}\qquad 
%  distance value
d = \sqrt{({{ x_2}}-{{ x_1}})^2 + ({{ y_2}}-{{ y_1}})^2}
\\\\\\
\stackrel{diameter}{d}=\sqrt{[-8-(-2)]^2+[-3-5]^2}
\\\\\\
d=\sqrt{(-8+2)^2+(-3-5)^2}\implies d=\sqrt{(-6)^2+(-8)^2}
\\\\\\
d=\sqrt{36+64}\implies d=\sqrt{100}\implies d=10

that means the radius r = 5.

now, what's the center?  well, the Midpoint of the diagonals, is really the center of the circle, let's check,

\bf \textit{middle point of 2 points}\\ \quad \\
\begin{array}{lllll}
&x_1&y_1&x_2&y_2\\
%  (a,b)
&({{ -2}}\quad ,&{{ 5}})\quad 
%  (c,d)
&({{ -8}}\quad ,&{{ -3}})
\end{array}\qquad 
\left(\cfrac{{{ x_2}} + {{ x_1}}}{2}\quad ,\quad \cfrac{{{ y_2}} + {{ y_1}}}{2} \right)
\\\\\\
\left( \cfrac{-8-2}{2}~,~\cfrac{-3+5}{2} \right)\implies (-5~,~1)

so, now we know the center coordinates and the radius, let's plug them in,

\bf \textit{equation of a circle}\\\\ 
(x-{{ h}})^2+(y-{{ k}})^2={{ r}}^2
\qquad 
\begin{array}{lllll}
center\ (&{{ h}},&{{ k}})\qquad 
radius=&{{ r}}\\
&-5&1&5
\end{array}
\\\\\\\
[x-(-5)]^2-[y-1]^2=5^2\implies (x+5)^2-(y-1)^2=25

If B is the midpoint of AC and AB = 4x + 14 and BC = x + 20, determine how long AC is.
Serhud [2]

Answer:

44 units

Step-by-step explanation:

Since B is the mid-point of AC

AB=BC

or,4x+14=x+20

or, 4x-x=20-14

or 3x=6

or,x=6/3=2

AC=AB+BC

= 4x+14+x+20

= 4(2) + 14 +2 +20

= 8+14+22

=44 units
