Answer:
We need a sample of at least 1797 if we wish to be 95% confident that the sample percentage of those equating success with personal satisfaction is within 2.3% of the population percentage.
Step-by-step explanation:
In a sample with a number n of people surveyed with a probability of a success of
, and a confidence level of
, we have the following confidence interval of proportions.

In which
z is the zscore that has a pvalue of
.
The margin of error is:

95% confidence level
So
, z is the value of Z that has a pvalue of
, so
.
In this problem, we have that:

How large a sample is needed if we wish to be 95% confident that the sample percentage of those equating success with personal satisfaction is within 2.3% of the population percentage?
We have to find n for which
. So







We need a sample of at least 1797 if we wish to be 95% confident that the sample percentage of those equating success with personal satisfaction is within 2.3% of the population percentage.
Answer:
5 gifts
Step-by-step explanation:
Given information:
- Cost of one gift = $4
- Total money = $50
- Money left after purchasing gifts = at least $28
Let x = greatest number of gifts James can buy
Create an inequality with the given information:
⇒ 50 - 4x ≥ 28
<u>Solve the inequality</u>
Add 4x to both sides:
⇒ 50 - 4x + 4x ≥ 28 + 4x
⇒ 50 ≥ 28 + 4x
Subtract 28 from both sides:
⇒ 50 - 28 ≥ 28 + 4x - 28
⇒ 22 ≥ 4x
Divide both sides by 4
⇒ 22 ÷ 4 ≥ 4x ÷ 4
⇒ 5.5 ≥ x
⇒ x ≤ 5.5
We must <u>round down</u> to 5 as if James buys 6 gifts, he will only have $26 remaining. Therefore, the greatest number of gifts James can buy is <u>5 gifts</u>.
Answer:
56.25 miles
Step-by-step explanation:
Walker wants to visit petrified national forest and meteor crater.
On a map, a scale is 2 inches = 75 miles.
The national forest and meteor crater are about 1 and a half inches apart.
Let x miles be the actual distance between national forest and meteor crater.
Then
2 inches - 75 miles
inches - x miles.
Write a proportion:

Cross multiply

Or you can think in such way:
2 inches - 75 miles
1 inch - 37.5 miles
1/2 inch - 18.75 miles
1 1/2 inches - 37.5 + 18.75 = 56.25 miles
This is false... you can get an easy example: (-2) + (10) = 10 - 2 = 8
Answer:
x = 16
Step-by-step explanation:
180=(5x-8)+(7x-4)
180=12x-12
192/12=x
x=16
