X - hours that passed after 10 pm

(x+1) 36 = x * 42  | / 6
(x+1)6 = 7x
6x+6  = 7x        |-6x
x=6

They will travel same distance at 4 am.

Suppose that the epidemiologist wants to re-estimate the population proportion and wishes for her 95% confidence interval to hav
Svetllana [295]

Answer:

She needs a sample of at least 385.

Step-by-step explanation:

In a sample with a number n of people surveyed with a probability of a success of \pi, and a confidence level of 1-\alpha, we have the following confidence interval of proportions.

\pi \pm z\sqrt{\frac{\pi(1-\pi)}{n}}

In which

z is the zscore that has a pvalue of 1 - \frac{\alpha}{2}.

The margin of error is:

M = z\sqrt{\frac{\pi(1-\pi)}{n}}

95% confidence level

So \alpha = 0.05, z is the value of Z that has a pvalue of 1 - \frac{0.05}{2} = 0.975, so Z = 1.96.

How large a sample should she take to achieve this?

She needs a sample of size at least n.

n is found when M = 0.04.

We do not know the true population proportion, so we use \pi = 0.5, which is the case for which we are going to need the largest sample size.

M = z\sqrt{\frac{\pi(1-\pi)}{n}}

0.05 = 1.96\sqrt{\frac{0.5*0.5}{n}}

0.05\sqrt{n} = 1.96*0.5

Dividing both sides by 0.05

\sqrt{n} = 19.6

(\sqrt{n})^{2} = 19.6^{2}

n = 384.2

Rounding up

She needs a sample of at least 385.

8. Given: PQR and TSR are right triangles,
rewona [7]

Answer:

The answer is below

Step-by-step explanation:

A triangle is a polygon with three sides and three angles. Types of triangles are scalene, right angled, isosceles, equilateral.

A right angled triangle is a triangle with one angle equals to 90°.

Statement                      Reason

∠PQR = ∠RST                Given. ∠PQR = ∠RST = 90° (definition for right

                                       angle triangle.

PQ = ST                          Given

PR ≅  RT                         Since R is the midpoint of PT, hence PR = RT

ΔPQR ≅ ΔTSR                Side-angle-side triangle congruence theorem.

                                       the Side-angle-side triangle congruence theorem

                                       states that if two sides and an included angle of

                                       one triangle is equal to two sides and an included

                                       angle of another triangle, then the two triangles

                                       are congruent. PQ=ST, PR = RT and ∠PQR = ∠TSR
