Use the given information to find the minimum sample size required to estimate an unknown population mean μ

Mathematics

Nastasia [14]3 years ago

Answer:

94

Step-by-step explanation:

Margin of error = E = $ 120

Confidence Level = 95%

The z-score for 95% confidence level from the z-table = z = 1.96

Population standard deviation = σ = $593

Sample size = n  = ?

The formula to calculate the margin of error is:

E=\frac{z \sigma}{\sqrt{n} }

Re-arranging the equation, we get:

\sqrt{n}=\frac{z \sigma}{E}\\\\  n = (\frac{z \sigma}{E})^{2}

Using the given values in above equation, we get:

n=(\frac{1.96 \times 593}{120} )^{2}\\\\ n = 93.8

Rounding of to next higher integer, we get n = 94

Thus, we need a sample size of 94 to estimate an unknown population mean μ

Sum of two numbers is 20 their difference is 118
padilas [110]

Answer:

y = -49 x = 69

Step-by-step explanation:

make an equation

x+y=20 and x-y=118

then you can solve by elimination

x+y=20

x-y=118

=2x=138

x=69

69-y=118

-y=49

y=-49

For what value of the variable will<br> b<br> the value of 3−5c be 1 less than the value of 1−c?
Crank

Answer:

c = 3/4

Step-by-step explanation:

Lets set up an equation.

You can get

3-5c + 1 = 1-c to show that it is one less.

now we can solve it.

So by combining like terms, we get:

4-5c = 1-c

that then becomes:

3-5c = -c

--> 3 = 4c

--> c = 3/4

Grandma Gertrude gave 13 pieces of jewelry and grandma Fien gave y pieces of jewelry to the Carlson sisters to divide evenly amo
Papessa [141]

Answer:

x=\frac{13+y}{5}

Step-by-step explanation:

Grandma Gertrude gives 13 and Fien gives y.

x=13+y

The total amount of jewelry divided evenly between  the 5 sisters:

x=\frac{13+y}{5}

Nothing further can be done without knowing another value.

Which angle is the smallest?
svetoff [14.1K]
Angle A is the smallest.
It's truly simple; The triangle's smallest side is 10 units (used for unknown units of measurements). Angles A and E are both acute angles, however, angle E is larger due to side AD being larger than side ED. So, the angle has to widen in order to reach the full length.
