Answer:

She calculated a standard error of 0.048.

Step-by-step explanation:

A proportion p is the number of desired outcomes divided by the number of total outcomes.

The standard error of a proportion is given by:

SE_{p} = \sqrt{\frac{p(1-p)}{n}}

In which n is the size of the sample.

In this problem, we have that:

Desired outcomes:

12 students living on campus

Total outcomes:

All the 65 students

Proportion:

p = \frac{12}{65} = 0.1846

Standard error of the proportion:

SE_{p} = \sqrt{\frac{0.1846*0.8154}{65}} = 0.048

If ∠4 = 98°, then ∠3 = ?<br> look at image
Ksju [112]

Step-by-step explanation:

∠4 = ∠1 & ∠2 = ∠3

360 - 2(98) = ∠2 + ∠3

∠3 = 164/2

∠3 = 82°

Explain why any of the four operations placed between two terms 5 and -3 sqrt (8) will result in an irrational number
Gnoma [55]

Sum/difference:

Let

x = 5 + (-3\sqrt{8}) = 5-3\sqrt{8}

This means that

3\sqrt{8} = 5-x \iff \sqrt{8} = \dfrac{5-x}{3}

Now, assume that x is rational. The sum/difference of two rational numbers is still rational (so 5-x is rational), and the division by 3 doesn't change this. So, you have that the square root of 8 equals a rational number, which is false. The mistake must have been supposing that x was rational, which proves that the sum/difference of the two given terms was irrational

Multiplication/division:

The logic is actually the same: if we multiply the two terms we get

x = -15\sqrt{8}

if again we assume x to be rational, we have

\sqrt{8} = -\dfrac{x}{15}

But if x is rational, so is -x/15, and again we come to a contradiction: we have the square root of 8 on one side, which is irrational, and -x/15 on the other, which is rational. So, again, x must have been irrational. You can prove the same claim for the division in a totally similar fashion.

A distance runner is running an 18-mile race. So far, he has run 43% of the race.
Nezavi [6.7K]
The answer would be Find 40% of 20 because you would round 43% down and 18 up. Hope this helps :)
