In 2015 as part of the General Social Survey, 1289 randomly selected American adults responded to this question:

Radda [10]

Answer:

B (0.312, 0.364)

Step-by-step explanation:

In a sample with a number n of people surveyed with a probability of a success of $\pi$ , and a confidence interval $1-\alpha$ , we have the following confidence interval of proportions.

$\pi \pm z\sqrt{\frac{\pi(1-\pi)}{n}}$

In which

z is the zscore that has a pvalue of $1 - \frac{\alpha}{2}$

For this problem, we have that:

1289 randomly selected American adults responded to this question. This means that $n = 1289$ .

Of the respondents, 436 replied that America is doing about the right amount. This means that $\pi = \frac{436}{1289} = 0.3382$ .

Determine a 95% confidence interval for the proportion of all the registered voters who will vote for the Republican Party. 

So $\alpha = 0.05$ , z is the value of Z that has a pvalue of $1 - \frac{0.05}{2} = 0.975$ , so $z = 1.96$ .

The lower limit of this interval is:

$\pi - z\sqrt{\frac{\pi(1-\pi)}{n}} = 0.3382 - 1.96\sqrt{\frac{0.3382*0.6618}{1289}} = 0.312$

The upper limit of this interval is:

$\pi + z\sqrt{\frac{\pi(1-\pi)}{n}} = 0.3382 + 1.96\sqrt{\frac{0.3382*0.6618}{1289}} = 0.364$

The 95% confidence interval is:

B (0.312, 0.364)

A textbook store sold a combined total of 480 history and math textbooks in a week. The number of history textbooks sold was two

Gwar [14]

H + m = 480
h = 2m

2m + m = 480
3m = 480
m = 480/3
m = 160 <=== there were 160 math books

h = 2m
h = 2(160)
h = 320 <=== there were 320 history books

The expression into a single logarithm is $log[(x)^{10}][(2)^{30}]$

Step-by-step explanation:

Let us revise some logarithmic rules

$log(a)^{n}=nlog(a)$
$log(ab)=log(a)+log(b)$
$nlog(a)+mlog(b)=log[(a)^{n}][(b)^{m}]$

∵ 10 log(x) + 5 log(64)

- At first re-write 10 log(x)

∴ 10 log(x) = $log(x)^{10}$

- Then re-write 5 log(64)

∴ 5 log(64) = $log(64)^{5}$

∴ 10 log(x) + 5 log(64) = $log(x)^{10}$ + $log(64)^{5}$

- Use the 3rd rule above to make it single logarithm

∵ $log(x)^{10}$ + $log(64)^{5}$ = $log[(x)^{10}][(64)^{5}]$

∴ 10 log(x) + 5 log(64) = $log[(x)^{10}][(64)^{5}]$

∵ 64 = 2 × 2 × 2 × 2 × 2 × 2

∴ We can write 64 as $2^{6}$

∴ $(64)^{5}=(2^{6})^{5}$

- Multiply the two powers of 2

∴ $(64)^{5}=(2)^{30}$

∴ 10 log(x) + 5 log(64) = $log[(x)^{10}][(2)^{30}]$

The expression into a single logarithm is $log[(x)^{10}][(2)^{30}]$
