Answer:

The estimate of a population proportion is approximately 541.

Step-by-step explanation:

We can solve the the problem by using the formula for minimum sample needed for interval estimate of a population proportion which is given by the formula

n = pq ((Z/2) / E)^2

As, p is not defined so we use the standard p and q which is 0.5 and 0.5.

The reason for this is we have to choose form 0.1 to 0.9 both values of p and q, we will find the maximum value of pq occurs when they both are 0.5.

Next, we will find the value of (Z/2) by looking at the Z-table, we will find that at 98% confidence (Z/2) = 2.326. Now we start substituting the values in the above formula

n = (0.5)×(0.5) × (2.326/0.05)^2

n = 541.027

n ≅ 541.

Answer:

90 degrees

Step-by-step explanation:

A circle circumscribed over a right triangle is the same as a circle circumscribed over a rectangle built from the extension of the right triangle.

That tells us that the hypotenuse is the diameter of the circle in that case.

Here, we can see a triangle that has the hypotenuse as the diameter of the circumscribed circle. We can infer that the triangle is a right triangle.

A realtor makes a commission of $11,400 on a $190,000 house he sells. What is his commission rate?
Reika [66]
So bassically
his commision rate is
x% times 190000=comission
so x% times 190000=11400
divide both sdies by 190000
x%=11400/190000
solve for x percent
11400/190000=114/1900=3/50
x%=3/50
percent means parts out of 100 so x%=x/100
x/100=3/50
3/50=6/100
x/100=6/100
multiply both sdies by 100
x=6

the commision rate is 6%

PLEASE HELP WITH THIS ONE QUESTION
AveGali [126]

Answer:

step 1: move the -4 to the right: x^2 -2x = 4

step 2: add 1 to each side: x^2 -2x + 1 = 4 + 1

step 3: factor the left side and simplify the right side: (x-1)^2 = 5

step 4: take the square root of each side: x - 1 = sqr root of 5

step 5: move the 1 to the other side: x=\sqrt{5} + 1 and x = \sqrt{5} -1
