For margin of error to be a maximum of 3:
3 = z*(SD / sqrt(n)), where z is the z-score, SD is the standard deviation and n is the sample size.
z = 1.96 for a 95% confidence interval, and we are given SD = 15.
3 = 1.96*15/sqrt(n)
sqrt(n) = 9.8
n = 96.04 ~ 96 commercials.

PLEASE HELP ASAP!!
Arada [10]
This is like the equivalent to a jar with 4 green balls and 6 white balls, where you are picking 3. (The 4 green balls signify the friends from kindergarten.) 

You want to solve the probability that the first two balls are green and the third is white. 
First draw --> 4 green out of 10 balls --> 4/10 = 2/5 

Second draw --> 3 green out of 9 balls --> 3/9 = 1/3 

Third draw --> 6 white out of 8 balls --> 6/8 = 3/4 


2/5 x 1/3 x 3/4 

= 6/60 

= 1/10 


so the answer is 1/10 (or 10%)

Courtney works at the local shoe store and receives $150 a week plus 3% of all sales over $1000. This week her sales were $3200.
schepotkina [342]

The equation you would use to find her earning for the week would be:

y=0.03(x-1000)+150

This would mean she made $66 from commissions and $216 total.
