Answer:

(0.2935, 0.4265)

Step-by-step explanation:

Given that a random sample of 200 books purchased at a local bookstore showed that 72 of the books were murder mysteries.

Sample proportion p follows the following characteristics

p 0.36

q 0.64

pq/n 0.001152

Std dev 0.033941125

For 95% confidence level we have critical value as

Z critical = 1.96

Hence margin of error = 1.96*std dev

Confidence interval = (sample proportion - margin of error, sample proportion + margin of error)

=(0.2935, 0.4265)

Find the missing factor.<br> 8x^2 - 15x + 7 = (8x - 7)( )
Leokris [45]

Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:

(8x - 7)(

The x^2 term has to come out to 8x^2.

The 8 is already there.

So your first term in the second factor is x.

(8x - 7) ( x

Now the question is what is the sign after the x. Since the question shows +7 the only way that can happen is if both signs in the factors are the same.

Since (8x - 7) has been given to you and you need 7 to come out plus, then the sign after x must minus. Both signs must be the same.

(8x - 7)(x -

Last, what comes after the minus sign? You already have a minus 7 so you need something to multiply by 7 to get seven.

That should be a one.

(8x - 7)(x - 1)

x - 1 is you answer. I leave you to check the middle term. It is - 15

X is 64 because the 32 is half of x. So, when it is half of x, you multiply it by 2. 32 x 2 =64 = x.
