Answer:

x<-6

Step-by-step explanation:

-2x-4>8

(move the constant to the right)

-2x > 8+ 4

(calculate)

-2x>12

(divide both sides)

x<-6

lara31 [8.8K]

Answer:

$SE=\sqrt{\frac{\hat p (1-\hat p)}{n}}=\sqrt{\frac{0.35 (1-0.35)}{100}}=0.048$

If we replace the values obtained we got:

$0.35 - 1.96\sqrt{\frac{0.35(1-0.35)}{100}}=0.257$

$0.42 + 1.96\sqrt{\frac{0.42(1-0.42)}{150}}=0.443$

The 95% confidence interval would be given by (0.257;0.443)

Step-by-step explanation:

Notation and definitions

$X=35$ number of people that agree.

$n=100$ random sample taken

$\hat p=\frac{35}{100}=0.35$ estimated proportion of people that agree

$p$ true population proportion of peopl that agree

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".

The population proportion have the following distribution

$p \sim N(p,\sqrt{\frac{p(1-p)}{n}})$

Solution to the problem

In order to find the critical value we need to take in count that we are finding the interval for a proportion, so on this case we need to use the z distribution. Since our interval is at 95% of confidence, our significance level would be given by $\alpha=1-0.95=0.05$ and $\alpha/2 =0.025$ . And the critical value would be given by:

$z_{\alpha/2}=-1.96, z_{1-\alpha/2}=1.96$

The confidence interval for the mean is given by the following formula:

$\hat p \pm z_{\alpha/2}\sqrt{\frac{\hat p (1-\hat p)}{n}}$

The standard error is given by:

$SE=\sqrt{\frac{\hat p (1-\hat p)}{n}}=\sqrt{\frac{0.35 (1-0.35)}{100}}=0.048$

If we replace the values obtained we got:

$0.35 - 1.96\sqrt{\frac{0.35(1-0.35)}{100}}=0.257$

$0.42 + 1.96\sqrt{\frac{0.42(1-0.42)}{150}}=0.443$

The 95% confidence interval would be given by (0.257;0.443)

Find the surface area of the prism

Alecsey [184]

The surface area would be 17.6ft2

Explanation:
2 x 1 x 1/2 = 1
2 x 1 x 1/2 = 1
3 x 1 = 3
3 x 2 = 6
3 x 2.2 = 6.6

6.6 + 6 + 3 + 1 + 1 = 17.6

Whitepunk [10]

<h3>Answer:</h3>

6 large prints
12 small prints

<h3>Step-by-step explanation:</h3>

<em>Numerical Reasoning</em>

Consider a set of prints that consists of 2 small prints and one large print (that is, twice as many small prints as large). The value of that set will be ...

... 2×$20 +45 = $85

To have revenue of at least $510, the studio must sell ...

... $510/$85 = 6

sets of prints. That is, the studio needs to sell at least 6 large prints and 12 small ones.

_____

<em>With an equation</em>

Let x represent the number of large prints the studio needs to sell. Then 2x will represent the number of small prints. Total sales will be ...

... 20·2x +45·x ≥ 510

... 85x ≥ 510

... x ≥ 510/85

... x ≥ 6

The studio needs to sell at least 6 large prints and 12 small prints.
