In politics, marketing, etc. We often want to estimate a percentage or proportion p. One calculation in statistical polling is t

he margin of error - the largest (reasonble) error that the poll could have. For example, a poll result of 72% with a margin of error of 4% indicates that p is most likely to be between 68% and 76% (72% minus 4% to 72% plus 4%). In a (made-up) poll, the proportion of people who like dark chocolate more than milk chocolate was 32% with a margin of error of 2.2%. Describe the conclusion about p using an absolute value inequality.

Answer: |p-72% |≤ 4%

Step-by-step explanation:

Let p be the population proportion.

The absolute inequality about p using an absolute value inequality.:

|p-\hat{p}| \leq E , where E = margin of error, \hat{p} = sample proportion

Given:  A poll result of 72% with a margin of error of 4% indicates that p is most likely to be between 68% and 76% .

|p-72% |≤ 4%

⇒    72% - 4% ≤ p ≤ 72% +4%

⇒  68%  ≤ p ≤  76%.

i.e. p is most likely to be between 68% and 76% (.

A cylinder an a cone have the same volume.The cylinder has a radius of 2 inches and a height of 3 inches.The cone has a radius o
taurus [48]

  Volume of a cone =  (1/3) pi x r^2 x h

Volume of a cylinder =  pi x r^2 x h

Volume of the cylinder = pi x 2^2 x 3 = 37.68 cubic inches

Now set the volume for the cone to the volume of the cylinder and solve for the height.

37.68 = (1/3) x pi x r^2 x h

37.68 = (1/3) x pi x 3^2 x h

37.68 = (1/3) x pi x 9 x h

37.68 = 9.42 x h

h = 37.68 / 9.42

h = 4

The height of the cone is 4 cm.

The simplified expression of  $4 x \cdot \frac{1}{x^{-5}} \cdot x^{-3} is 4x^3.

Solution:

Given expression is 4 x \cdot \frac{1}{x^{-5}} \cdot x^{-3}.

To simplify the given expression.

$\Rightarrow4 x \cdot \frac{1}{x^{-5}} \cdot x^{-3}

Using exponent rule: \frac{1}{a^{-m}}=a^m

$\Rightarrow4x \cdot x^{5}.x^{-3}

Using another exponent rule: a^m \cdot a^n=a^{m+n}

$\Rightarrow4x \cdot x^{5-3}

$\Rightarrow4x \cdot x^{2}

Using exponent rule: a^m \cdot a^n=a^{m+n}

$\Rightarrow4x^{1+2}

$\Rightarrow4x^3

Hence the simplified expression of  $4 x \cdot \frac{1}{x^{-5}} \cdot x^{-3} is 4x^3.

Calculate the rate of change from the graph below
qaws [65]

Answer:

The rate of change is 0.75 gallons per minute

Step-by-step explanation:

The rate of change of the linear relation is represented by the slope of the line which represents this relation

The rule of the slope of a line is

m = Δy/Δx, where

  • Δy is the vertical change
  • Δx is the horizontal change

From the given graph

∵ The line passes through points (0, 0) and (4, 3)

∴ Δx = 4 - 0 = 4

∴ Δy = 3 - 0 = 3

→ Use the rule of the slope above to find the slope of the line

∴ m = \frac{3}{4} = 0.75

∵ The x-axis represents the time in minutes

∵ The y-axis represents the amount in gallons

∵ m represents the rate of change

∴ The rate of change = 0.75 gallons per minute
