Answer:

The number of business students that must be randomly selected to estimate the mean monthly earnings of business students at one college is 64.

Step-by-step explanation:

The (1 - <em>α</em>) % confidence interval for population mean is:

 CI=\bar x\pm z_{\alpha/2}\ \frac{\sigma}{\sqrt{n}}

The margin of error for this interval is:

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

The information provided is:

<em>σ</em> = $569

MOE = $140

Confidence level = 95%

<em>α</em> = 5%

Compute the critical value of <em>z</em> for <em>α</em> = 5% as follows:

 z_{\alpha/2}=z_{0.05/2}=z_{0.025}=1.96

*Use a <em>z</em>-table.

Compute the sample size required as follows:

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

       n=[\frac{z_{\alpha/2}\times \sigma}{MOE}]^{2}

          =[\frac{1.96\times 569}{140}]^{2}\\\\=63.457156\\\\\approx 64

Thus, the number of business students that must be randomly selected to estimate the mean monthly earnings of business students at one college is 64.

Which inequality represents all values of X for which the product below is defined
balandron [24]

The domain for which the function is defined is given by:

D. x \geq 4.

<h3>What is the domain of a function?</h3>

The domain of a function is the set that contains all possible input values for the function.

A square root is only defined for non-negative values, hence:

  • x - 4 \geq 0 \rightarrow x \geq 4.
  • x + 1 \geq 0 \rightarrow x \geq -1.

The intersection of these two domains is x \geq 4, hence option D is correct.
