Suppose that the ages of members in a large billiards league have a known standard deviation of σ = 12 σ=12sigma, equals, 12 yea

rs. Hernando plans on taking a random sample of n nn members from this population to make a 95 % 95%95, percent confidence interval for the mean age in the league. He wants the margin of error to be no more than 5 55 years. Which of these is the smallest approximate sample size required to obtain the desired margin of error?

Answer:

n\geq 23

Step-by-step explanation:

-For a known standard deviation, the sample size for a desired margin of error is calculated using the formula:

n\geq (\frac{z\sigma}{ME})^2

Where:

  • \sigma is the standard deviation
  • ME is the desired margin of error.

We substitute our given values to calculate the sample size:

n\geq (\frac{z\sigma}{ME})^2\\\\\geq (\frac{1.96\times 12}{5})^2\\\\\geq 22.13\approx23

Hence, the smallest desired sample size is 23

The double number line shows that 555 pounds of avocados cost \$9$9dollar sign, 9.
Mice21 [21]

Answer:  

1 pound of avocado costs $1.8.

Step-by-step explanation:

This problem is just a simple division problem. We jest need to divide the given values to get the answer. For our problem, to know the price of 1 pound of avocado, we need to divide the $9 by 5 since the problem stated that the price of 5 pounds of avocados is $9.

Given:

5 pounds avocados = $9

Required:

cost of 1 pound of avocado

Solution:

$9 / 5 pounds = $1.8/pound

1 pound avocado = $1.8

Notice from the first line of solution, the unit became $ per pound. This means that we did the right operation since we are looking for the price per pound.

To check if we computed for the correct value, we should multiply $1.8 to 5. If the answer from doing this is $9, then our answer is correct.

Checking:

$1.8 * 5 = $9

Therefore, the cost of 1 pound of avocado is $1.8

Factor −6 out of −18a−30
fgiga [73]

Remark

This is like using the distributive principle only you are going backwards. Instead of trying to remove brackets, you are trying to create them.

Solution

Since you want to take - 6 outside the brackets you should divide both terms by - 6

<em><u>- 18a</u></em>: - 18a/- 6 = 3a  which is left inside the brackets.

<em><u>-30:</u></em> - 30/-6 = 5

- 6(3a + 5)

Answer

-6(3a + 5)

HELP AND I WILL GIVE 20 POINTS
KatRina [158]

Answer:

p = 1

Step-by-step explanation:

Given

3p - 6 + 7 = 32 - 4(2p + 5), that is

3p + 1 = 32 - 4(2p + 5) ← distribute and simplify right side

3p + 1 = 32 - 8p - 20

3p + 1 = 12 - 8p ( add 8p to both sides )

11p + 1 = 12 ( subtract 1 from both sides )

11p = 11 ( divide both sides by 11 )

p = 1
