Use the information from the polling agency to determine the sample size needed to construct a 95% confidence interval with a ma

Ber [7]

Answer:

the sample size n= 771

sample proportion is p = 1/2

Step-by-step explanation:

<u>Step1:</u>-

marginal error formula is $\frac{2S.D}{\sqrt{n} }$

but if 'n' is sample size then $n = \frac{1}{(margin error)^{2} }$

Given margin error is 36% = 0.036

$n= \frac{1}{(0.036)^2}$

on simplification , we get n= 777 polling agencies

<u>Step 2</u>:-

$Margin of error = \frac{2\sqrt{p(1-p)} }{\sqrt{n} }$

substitute values , we get

$\frac{36}{100} = \frac{2\sqrt{p(1-p)} }{\sqrt{771} }$

after simplification, we get

$\sqrt{p(1-p)} = \frac{1}{2}$

squaring on both sides, we get

$p(1-p) = \frac{1}{4}$

multiply 'p' inside

$p-p^{2} =\frac{1}{4}$

cross multiplication '4' and simplify

$4p^{2} -4p +1 =0$ ........(1)

finding 'p' value

The equation (1) is of the form $(a-b)^{2} = a^{2} -2ab+b^{2}$

$(2p)^{2} -2(2p)(1)+1^{2} = (2p-1)^2$

$(2p-1)^2 =0$

$p=\frac{1}{2}$

<u>conclusion</u>:-

The sample size is 771

the sample proportion is p = $\frac{1}{2}$

Which expression is equivalent to the following complex fraction? X/x-3/x^2/x^2-9

rewona [7]

Answer:

C) $\frac{x+3}{x}$

Step-by-step explanation:

The given expression is

$\frac{\frac{x}{x-3} }{\frac{x^2}{x^2-9} }$

We rewrite to obtain:

$\frac{x}{x-3} \div \frac{x^2}{x^2-9}$

Multiply the first fraction by the reciprocal of the second to get;

$\frac{x}{x-3} \times \frac{x^2-9}{x^2}$

Factor the numerator using difference two squares;

$\frac{x}{x-3} \times \frac{x^2-3^2}{x^2}$

$\frac{x}{x-3} \times \frac{(x-3)(x+3)}{x^2}$

Cancel out the common factors to get;

$\frac{1}{1} \times \frac{(1)(x+3)}{x}$

This simplifies to;

$\frac{x+3}{x}$

HELP How does the subtraction<br> part of the expression change when a(b - c)<br> is expanded?

drek231 [11]

Answer:

The variables change

Step-by-step explanation:

Since we can't subtract c from -b we multiply both variables by a because the question is telling us to subtract b and c then multiply the awnser by a, but we don't know what b and c is so we just multiply b and c by a. In the end we get ab-ac
