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.

The scale factor of the blueprint of a garage door to the actual garage door is 0.05. the are of the actual garage door is 220 f
erastovalidia [21]
The scale factor 0.05 refers to length, so for area the scale factor is 0.05²=0.0025.

We then multiply: 220 ft²*0.0025=0.55 ft² (choice A)

Kazeer [188]

Answer:

The solutions are given below:

Step-by-step explanation:

x(x-3)+4(x²+2)

= x²-3x+4x²+8

= x²+4x²+8-3x

= 5x²+8-3x

2(a+5)-3(a+7)

= 2a+10-3a-21

= 2a-3a+10-21

= -a-11

xy(x²yz-xy²z+xyz²)

= x³y²z-x²y³z+x²y²z²

-4(a²-2a+8)

= -4a²+8a-32
