Professor York randomly surveyed 240 students at Oxnard University and found that 150 of the students surveyed watch more than 1

0 hours of television weekly. How many additional students would Professor York have to sample to estimate the proportion of all Oxnard University students who watch more than 10 hours of television each week within ±3 percent with 99 percent confidence?

Answer:

1727 students

Step-by-step explanation:

Here we have the formula for sample size given as

n = \frac{p(1-p)z^2}{ME^2}

Where:

p = Mean

ME = Margin of error = 3

z = z score

Therefore, we have

p = 150/240 = 0.625

z  at 99 % = 2.575

ME = \pm3%

Therefore n = \frac{0.625(1-0.625)2.575^2}{0.03^2} = 1726.73

The number of students Professor York have to sample to estimate the proportion of all Oxnard University students who watch more than 10 hours of television each week within ±3 percent with 99 percent confidence = 1727 students.

Solve for e.<br> 0.75(8 + e) = 2 - 1.25e
timofeeve [1]

Answer:

e = -2

Step-by-step explanation:

Well to solve for e in the following equation,

.75(8 + e) = 2 - 1.25e

We need to distribute and use the communicative property to find <em>e</em>.

6 + .75e = 2 - 1.25e

-2 to both sides

4 + .75e = -1.25e

-.75 to both sides

4 = -2e

-2 to both sides

e = -2

<em>Thus,</em>

<em>e is -2.</em>

The figure below is a right rectangular prism. which expression represents the volume of the prism?
Leviafan [203]

Answer: The expression (equation/formula) for the volume of a:  

     " right rectangular prism " ;   is represented by:

____________________________________________________

                    →   " V  =  L * w * h  "   ;

____________________________________________________

in which:   all the dimensions are in the same "units of measurement" (or converted to the same "units of measurement" ;  

and in which:

      " V " is the "volume" of the right rectangular prism; in the "cubic units" ; or written as:  "units³ "  ;  or, [insert the particular units used}^ ³  "   ;

  →  that is, [units] raised to the "3rd [third] power" ; assuming these units are the same  same "fundamental units of measurement"  as the "other 2 (two) values in the expression".  

    If we are given no specific units of measurement whatsoever, then we use the generic term, "units" as the "units of measurement" ; and we express the "volume; "V" ;  of a "right rectangular prism" as:  " units ³ " ; or "cubic units" ;

        in our answer— if we are asked to solve for the:

                     "volume; "V";  of a "right rectangular prism" ;

_________________________________________________

and in which:  

            "L" represents the "length" of a "right rectangular prism" ;

            "w" represents the "width" of a "right rectangular prism" ;

            "h" represents the "height" of a "right rectangular prism" .

_________________________________________________

To given an example:

  Say we have a "right rectangular prism" ; with the given measurements:

    width , "w" :   w = 2 units;  

    length, "L"  :    L  = 3 units ;

    height, "h" :    h =  8 units.

_________________________________________________

We are asked to "find the volume " ;  of this "right recentangular prism" .

The formula for the volume;  "V" ;  of this "right rectangular prism" ;

is:

_________________________________________________

          →    Volume  =  Length * width * height ;

that is:

          →    V =  L  * w * h  ;  

Solve for the volume;  "V" .

_________________________________________________

          →   V  =  L  * w * h   ;    Now plug in the values given:

          →   V =  (3 units)  * (2 units)  * (8 units) ;

                   

                    =  3 * 2 * 8 * (units) * (units) * (units) ;

                    =  3 * 2 * 8 * units ³  ;

                    =  48 units ³ .    

_________________________________________________                    

Hope this answer— and explanation—is helpful to you!

     Wishing you the best in your academic pursuits

WILL GIVE BRAINLIEST IF CORRECT ANSWER!!!
Rom4ik [11]

Answer : 2√3

<u>Given </u><u>:</u><u>-</u>

  • A equilateral triangle with side length 4.

<u>To </u><u>Find</u><u> </u><u>:</u><u>-</u>

  • The value of x in the given figure.

As we know that in a equilateral triangle , perpendicular bisector , angle bisector and median coincide with each other .

  • So the perpendicular drawn in the figure will bisect the given side .
  • Therefore the value of each half will be 4/2 = 2 .

Now we may use Pythagoras theorem as ,

→ AB² = BC² + AC²

→ 4² = 2² + x²

→ 16 = 4 + x²

→ x² = 16-4

→ x² = 12

→ x =√12 = √{ 3 * 2²}

→ x = 2√3

<u>Hence </u><u>the</u><u> required</u><u> answer</u><u> is</u><u> </u><u>2</u><u>√</u><u>3</u><u> </u><u>.</u>

I hope this helps.

At high school basketball game, the athletic department sold 250 tickets and brought in 837.50. Adult tickets cost $5 and studen
Tpy6a [65]

Answer:

The system of equations is:

a+s = 250\\5a+2.50s = 837.50

Here a is the number of adult tickets and s is the number of student tickets

Step-by-step explanation:

We will use the given statements to make a system of equations for the given scenario.

First of all we have to decide which variables to be used.

Let a be the number of adult tickets and

Let s be the number of student tickets

So according to the statement that the department sold 250 tickets in total, the equation will be:

a+s = 250

This is equation one of the system of equations

According to the statement that cost of adult ticket is $5, total cost of adult tickets will be: 5a

According to the statement that cost of student ticket is $2.50, total cost of student tickets will be:2.50s

The total earning was $837.50 so the second equation will be:

5a+2.50s = 837.50

Hence,

The system of equations is:

a+s = 250\\5a+2.50s = 837.50

Here a is the number of adult tickets and s is the number of student tickets
