Answer:

n=(\frac{2.33(500)}{10})^2 =13572.25 \approx 13573

And if we use a sample level of n =2000 the margin of error would be higher as we can see here:

ME=2.33\frac{500}{\sqrt{2000}}=26.05  

Step-by-step explanation:

Previous concepts

A confidence interval is "a range of values that’s likely to include a population value with a certain degree of confidence. It is often expressed a % whereby a population means lies between an upper and lower interval".

The margin of error is the range of values below and above the sample statistic in a confidence interval.

Normal distribution, is a "probability distribution that is symmetric about the mean, showing that data near the mean are more frequent in occurrence than data far from the mean".

\bar X represent the sample mean for the sample  

\mu population mean (variable of interest)

\sigma=500 represent the population standard deviation assumed

n represent the sample size  (variable of interest)

Confidence =98% or 0.98

ME = 10 represent the margin of error desired

The margin of error is given by this formula:

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

And on this case we have that ME =10 and we are interested in order to find the value of n, if we solve n from equation (a) we got:

n=(\frac{z_{\alpha/2} \sigma}{ME})^2   (b)

The critical value for 98% of confidence interval now can be founded using the normal distribution. And in excel we can use this formla to find it:"=-NORM.INV(0.01;0;1)", and we got z_{\alpha/2}=2.33, replacing into formula (b) we got:

n=(\frac{2.33(500)}{10})^2 =13572.25 \approx 13573

So the answer for this case would be n=13573 rounded up to the nearest integer

And if we use a sample level of n =2000 the margin of error would be higher as we can see here:

ME=2.33\frac{500}{\sqrt{2000}}=26.05

Write the equation of a line in slope intercept form that passes through the points (0, 7) and (5, 3)
malfutka [58]

first you find the slope by making using the quation for slope

(7-3)/(0-5) and you find your slope is 4/-5. Then you can plug this into point slope form using on of the coordinates so:

y-y1=m(x-x1) --> y-3=-4/5(x-5)

then you distribute the -1 so -----> y-3=-4/5x+4 and then move the 3 over

so the answer is y= -4/5x+7

Ther are 6 girls and 7 boys in a class. A team of 10 players is to be selected from the class. How many different combinations o
omeli [17]

Answer:

There are 286 possible combinations

Step-by-step explanation:

To solve this problem we must use the formula of combinations.

nCr =\frac{n!}{r!(n-r)!}

Where n is the number of players that there are and elect r of them

In this case there are 7 + 6 = 13 players and you choose 10 of them

Then we look for  13C10

13C10 =\frac{13!}{10!(13-10)!}

13C10 =\frac{13!}{10!*3!}

13C10 =286

There are 286 possible combinations
