Answer:

Option D) 340

Step-by-step explanation:

We are given the following in the question:

Alpha, α = 0.05

Population standard deviation, σ = $47

Margin of error = 5

95% Confidence Interval:

\mu \pm z_{critical}\frac{\sigma}{\sqrt{n}}

\text{Margin of error} = z_{critical}\frac{\sigma}{\sqrt{n}}

Putting the values, we get,

z_{critical}\text{ at}~\alpha_{0.05} = 1.96

5 = 1.96(\dfrac{47}{\sqrt{n}} )\\\\\sqrt{n} = \dfrac{47\times 1.96}{5}\\\\n = 339.443776\\\Rightarrow n \approx 340

Thus, the correct answer is

Option D) 340

Expand. Your answer should be a polynomial in standard form. (b^2+5)(−b^2+7)=
Blizzard [7]

(b^2+5)(−b^2+7)

Use the FOIL METHOD to expand.

-b^4 + 7b^2 - 5b^2 + 35

-b^4 + 2b^2 + 35

Eight friends are going bowling together if they each rent a pair of bowling shoes for $2.00, they each play two
Mnenie [13.5K]

2.00+1.50= 3.50.

3.50x8= 28.00

I'm assuming they each paid 41.00 dollars for two games,

41.00x8= 328.00

328.00+28.00= $356.00

Hope this is correct and/or it helps!

Sorry, didn't realize my mistake.
