SOLVE FOR X (FIRST BOX) SOLVE FOR Y (SECOND BOX)
Answer: n = 14
Step-by-step explanation: margin of error = critical value × σ/√n
Where σ = population standard deviation = 1
n = sample size = ?
We are to construct a 99% confidence interval, hence the level of significance is 1%.
The critical value for 2 tailed test at 1% level of significance is gotten from a standard normal distribution table which is 2.58
Margin of error = 0.7
0.7 = 2.58×1/√n
0.7 = 2.58/√n
By cross multipying
0.7×√n = 2.58
By squaring both sides
0.7^2 × n = 2.58^2
0.49 × n = 6.6564
n = 6.6564/0.49
n = 14
Answer:
(a) no solution
Step-by-step explanation:
Writing the second equation in slope-intercept form, it becomes ...
3x -y = 2 . . . . given
y = 3x -2 . . . . add y-2 to both sides
The first equation is already in slope-intercept form:
y = 3x +3 . . . . first equation
The coefficients of x in the two equations are both 3, so the lines they describe are parallel. They do not intersect, so there is <em>no solution</em>.
Quartile or interquartile.
