A newspaper article states that 90% of drivers in Iowa wear their seatbelt. Suppose we are interested in estimating the proporti

on of drivers in Iowa City who wear their seatbelt when driving. We will observe drivers at different times of the day at different locations around town and record whether they are wearing their seatbelt. How large of a sample would we need to estimate this proportion to within 1% with 95% confidence?

Answer:

The sample size is  n  = 3457

Step-by-step explanation:

From the we are told that

  The population proportion is  p =  0.90

  The margin of error is  E =  0.01  

From the question we are told the confidence level is  95% , hence the level of significance is    

      \alpha = (100 - 95 ) \%

=>   \alpha = 0.05

Generally the sample size is mathematically represented as

       n  =[  \frac{ Z_{\frac{\alpha }{2} }  }{E} ]^2 * p(1-p)

=>  n  =[  \frac{ 1.96  }{0.01} ]^2 * 0.90(1-0.90)

=>   n  = 3457

Line segment BD passes through the center of circle C, BH = a, and HD = 8. What is the length of the diameter?
nata0808 [166]
If the line down the center is 8 and the diaameter is in the middle then both those sides need to be 8 and so the 6's on both sides of the diameter have to stay they same but they only change a little for 6+6 is 12 but the length gets longer since it moved farther down

Figure B is a scaled copy of Figure A.
zimovet [89]

Answer:

4

Step-by-step explanation:

We are told that figure B is a scaled copy of B, which means figure A was enlarged by a certain scale factor to get a similar figure as A, now referred to as figure B.

The scale factor = ratio of any two corresponding sides of both similar figures.

Thus,

Scale factor of the similar figures given = 40/10 = 4.

This means that, figure A was scaled up by 4 times its original size to get figure B. Each side of figure B is 4 × the corresponding side in figure A.

Scale factor = 4
