What is a reasonable estimate for 8.24 divided by 4? Explain

1 answer:

6 0

A reasonable estimate for 8.24 divided by 4 would be 2. This would be a reasonable estimate because .24 rlly isn’t all that much so you are able to round down to 8. (Hope that’s right!)

Answer:

The first one will be equal 2

Because

$\frac{ - 64}{8} = - 8$

$x ^{3} = 8 \\$

$\sqrt[3]{ - 8} = - 2$

Oh sorry i read the question wrongly i thought you wanted the value of x

Answer:

$n=(\frac{1.64(6.995)}{1.939})^2 =35.003 \approx 36$

So the answer for this case would be n=36 rounded up to the nearest integer

Step-by-step explanation:

Previous concepts

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".

$\bar X$ represent the sample mean for the sample

$\mu$ population mean (variable of interest)

$\sigma =6.995$ represent the population standard deviation

n represent the sample size

Solution to the problem

Since the Confidence is 0.90 or 90%, the value of $\alpha=0.1$ and $\alpha/2 =0.05$ , and we can use excel, a calculator or a table to find the critical value. The excel command would be: "=-NORM.INV(0.05,0,1)".And we see that $z_{\alpha/2}=1.64$
