A 98% confidence interval for the mean of a population is to be constructed and must be accurate to within 0.3 unit. A prelimina
BaLLatris [955]

Answer:

n = (\frac{2.326*1.7}{0.3})^2= 173.73

And the value for n rounded up would be n = 174

Step-by-step explanation:

We have the following info given:

s= 1.7 previous estimation for the deviation

ME=0.03 the margin of error desired

Conf =0.98 represent the confidence

The Margin of error is given by:

ME = z_{\alpha/2} \frac{\sigma}{\sqrt{n}}

If we solve for the value of n we got:

n= (\frac{z*\sigma}{ME})^2

For this problem we know that the confidence is 98% so then the significance level would be \alpha=0.02 and the critical value would be:

z_{\alpha/2}= 2.326

And replacing we got:

n = (\frac{2.326*1.7}{0.3})^2= 173.73

And the value for n rounded up would be n = 174

What is 8 3/4% expressed as a fraction?<br><br><br> 8/100<br><br> 7/80<br><br> 7/40<br><br> 8/25
Lelu [443]
ANSWER:

7 / 80

8 3/4% expressed as a fraction is 7 / 80.

STEP-BY-STEP EXPLANATION:

Write 8 3/4% as a percentage with a decimal:

= 8.75%

Convert 8.75% to a fraction:

= 8.75% ÷ 100

= 8.75 / 100

Make the numerator a whole number by multiplying both the numerator and denominator by a 100:

= ( 8.75 × 100 ) / ( 100 × 100 )

= 875 / 10000

Divide the numerator and denominator in the fraction by their highest common factor ( HCF ):

HCF = 125

THEREFORE:

= ( 875 ÷ 125 ) / ( 10000 ÷ 125 )

= 7 / 80

A new bank account is opened on week 1 with a $200 deposit. After that first week, weekly deposits of $55 are made in the accoun
kobusy [5.1K]
On week 1, we started with a deposit of $200. Every week from that point on, we place a deposit of $55.

We know y is total amount of money (deposits) in the bank account.
We also know x represents the number of weeks.

On week 1, we would have $200 in the back account.
On week 2, we would have $200 + $55 or $255 in the bank account.

So, we could build an expression of 55(x - 1) + 200 which is equal to y.

So, y = 55(x - 1) + 200 is the answer.
