g Recall the example about community college students and gender. Statistics students surveyed 135 students at Tallahassee Commu

nity College. From their data we are 95% confident that between 44.7% and 61.9% of all TCC students are female. The students realize that this interval contains a large margin of error. What can they do to make a narrower interval?

Answer:

They can either decrease the confidence level or increase the sample size, that is, survey more students.

Step-by-step explanation:

The width of a confidence interval is given by:

M = z*\frac{\sigma}{\sqrt{n}}

In which z is the critical value correponding to the confidence level(higher confidence level, higher z is), \sigma is the standard deviation of the population and n is the size of the sample.

The students realize that this interval contains a large margin of error. What can they do to make a narrower interval?

Looking at the formula for M, they can either decrease the confidence level or increase the sample size, that is, survey more students.

The best approximation for the measure of angle XYZ is 39.8° ⇒ 2nd answer

Step-by-step explanation:

Let us revise the trigonometry ratios in the right triangle ABC, where B is the right angle, AC is the hypotenuse, AB and BC are the legs of the triangle

The trigonometry ratios of the angle BAC, the opposite side to this angle is BC and the adjacent side to it is AB are

  • sin(BAC)=\frac{opposite}{hypotenuse}=\frac{BC}{AC}
  • cos(BAC)=\frac{adjacent}{hypotenuse}=\frac{AB}{AC}
  • tan(BAC)=\frac{opposite}{adjacent}=\frac{BC}{AB}

In Δ XYZ

∵ ∠ YXZ is a right angle

∴ The hypotenuse is YZ

∵ The adjacent side to ∠XYZ is XY

∵ The opposite side to ∠XYZ is XZ

∵ YX = 12 units

∵ XZ = 10 units

- Use tan ratio to find the measure of the angle because you

   have the adjacent and opposite sides of the angle XYZ

∵ m∠XYZ is x

∵ tan(x)=\frac{XZ}{XY}

∴ tan(x)=\frac{10}{12}

- To find x use the inverse of tan(x)

∵ x=tan^{-1}(\frac{10}{12})

∴ x = 39.8°

∴ m∠XYZ = 39.81°

The best approximation for the measure of angle XYZ is 39.8°
