A mechanic is using a machine that makes metal parts. She measures each part to confirm it is the correct size. Negative numbers
mean the part is too small, and positive numbers mean the part is too big. Which list shows the numbers the mechanic records in order from least to greatest?
1/8 - 3/16 - 1/4 - 1/32 - 5/32 - 1/16
1/8 - 3/16 - 1/4 - 1/32 - 5/32 - 1/16

Answer:
A
Step-by-step explanation:
In the figure attached, the complete question is shown.
We have to transform all the fractions to new fractions with the same denominator, as follows:
1/8 *4/4 = 4/32
-3/16 *2/2 = -6/32
-1/4 *8/8 = -8/32
1/32
5/32
-1/16 *2/2 = -2/32
Now we can order the list simply comparing numerators:
-8/32, -6/32, -2/32, 1/32, 4/32, 5/32
or
-1/4, -3/16, -1/16, 1/32, 1/8, 5/32

Answer: The sample size would be needed = 385
Step-by-step explanation:
Let p be the prior population proportion.
Margin of error = E
When not estimate of p is given , the formula to calculate the minimum sample size <em>n</em> = , where z* = critical value for given confidence interval.
Here z* for 95% confidence level is 1.96.
E=5%=0.05
Then
Hence, the sample size would be needed = 385
