Answer:

(4x - 2y³)²

Step-by-step explanation:

a² - 2ab + b² = (a - b)²

16x² = 4²x² = (4x)² , Therefore, a = 4x

4y⁶=2²(y³)² = (2y³)² = b² , Therefore, b = 2y³

2ab = 2*4x*2y³ = 16xy³

16x² - 16xy³ + 4y⁶ = (4x)² - 2* 4x * 2y³ + (2y³)²

= (4x - 2y³)²

The confidence interval for confidence level of $1-\alpha$ is

$\left(\overline x-Z_{\alpha/2}\dfrac\sigma{\sqrt n},\overline x+Z_{\alpha/2}\dfrac\sigma{\sqrt n}\right)$

where $\overline x$ is the sample mean, $Z_{\alpha/2}$ is the critical value for the given confidence level, $\sigma$ is the standard deviation of the population, and $n$ is the sample size. The margin of error is the $Z_{\alpha/2}\dfrac\sigma{\sqrt n}$ term.

a) For a confidence level of $1-\alpha=0.90$ , we have $Z_{\alpha/2}=Z_{0.05}\approx1.64$ . So in order to have a margin of error of at most 25 points, we have

$1.64\dfrac{250}{\sqrt n}=25\implies n\approx268.96$

so Raina should collect a sample of at least 269 students.

b) A confidence interval with a higher confidence level would more closely approximate and reflect the population, so it stands to reason that Luke should collect a larger sample than Raina to meet his 99% confidence spec.

c) For a confidence level of $1-\alpha=0.99$ , we have $Z_{\alpha/2}=Z_{0.005}\approx2.58$ . Then the margin of error would at most satisfy

$2.58\dfrac{250}{\sqrt n}=25\implies n\approx665.64$

so that Luke should collect a sample of at least 666 students.

the sum of four times a number and eight is between zero and twelve. find the range of numbers. write a compound inequality.

Masja [62]

Let the number be the variable x

4 times the number is 4x

the sum of 8 and 4 times a number is 28

4x+8=28

4x=28-8

4x=20

x=20/4

x=5
