Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:

2√3 × 2√6

= 4√18

= 4√9*2

= 4( 2√2)

= 8√2

Just multiply the numbers under the radical together. √3 × √6 = √18. √18 can be written as √9*2, or 3√3.

√2 is irrational, so the answer will be irrational

(1 point) Suppose we want a 95% confidence interval for the average amount spent on books by freshmen in their first year at col

Ne4ueva [31]

Answer:

a) $n=(\frac{1.960(16)}{5})^2 =39.33 \approx 40$

So the answer for this case would be n=40 rounded up to the nearest integer

b) For this case if we see the formula for the margin of error

$ME=z_{\alpha/2}\frac{s}{\sqrt{n}}$ (a)

We can see that the margin of error is inversely proportional to the sample size so if we want a samller margin of error we need a LARGER sample

Answer: LARGER

Step-by-step explanation:

Previous concepts

A confidence interval is "a range of values that’s likely to include a population value with a certain degree of confidence. It is often expressed a % whereby a population means lies between an upper and lower interval".

The margin of error is the range of values below and above the sample statistic in a confidence interval.

Normal distribution, is a "probability distribution that is symmetric about the mean, showing that data near the mean are more frequent in occurrence than data far from the mean".

$\bar X$ represent the sample mean for the sample

$\mu$ population mean

$\sigma=16$ represent the population standard deviation

n represent the sample size

Solution to the problem

Part a

The margin of error is given by this formula:

$ME=z_{\alpha/2}\frac{s}{\sqrt{n}}$ (a)

And on this case we have that ME =5 and we are interested in order to find the value of n, if we solve n from equation (a) we got:

$n=(\frac{z_{\alpha/2} \sigma}{ME})^2$ (b)

The critical value for 95% of confidence interval now can be founded using the normal distribution. And in excel we can use this formla to find it:"=-NORM.INV(0.025;0;1)", and we got $z_{\alpha/2}=1.960$ , replacing into formula (b) we got:

$n=(\frac{1.960(16)}{5})^2 =39.33 \approx 40$

So the answer for this case would be n=40 rounded up to the nearest integer

Part b

For this case if we see the formula for the margin of error

$ME=z_{\alpha/2}\frac{s}{\sqrt{n}}$ (a)

We can see that the margin of error is inversely proportional to the sample size so if we want a samller margin of error we need a LARGER sample

If cos θ > 0, which quadrant(s) could the terminal side of θ lie?

Sergeeva-Olga [200]

Answer:

I and IV

Step-by-step explanation:

cosine is positive/greater than 0 in quadrants I and IV. Its just a rule of the unit circle.

Can remember by All Star Trig Class

meaning all the trig funtions are positive in quadrant I

sin is positive in II

tan is positive in III

and cos is positive in IV

Ms.Groves has trays of paint for students in her art class.each tray has 5 colors.one of the colors is purple.what fraction of t

seropon [69]

<span>So we need to find the fraction of many times does purple show up in 20 trays in which every tray has 5 colors. To find the answer we need to find the overall number of all colors and that is 20 trays * 5 colors and that equals to 100 colors. So purple shows 20 times and 20/100 is 1/5 when we simplify the fraction. </span>
