Set up a proportion.
Let x = the number of students in 29970 who speak 3 or more languages.
285/19 = 29970/x Cross multiply
285 x = 19 * 29970
285x = 569430
x = 569430/285
x = 5415 students speak 3 languages.
Answer:
The answer is 3) 40.
Step-by-step explanation:
since you're working with the Pythagorean theorem, you should know that a^2+b^2=c^2, therefore, we know that we only have two sides. we have a and c. we know that a = 42 and c = 58, giving us the equation of 42^2+b^2=58^2,
we want to find b!
so we would simply subtract the two.
58^2 - 42^2 = b
b = 1600
now we want to square root,
b = sqrt1600
which in the end, gives us the answer of 40.
Margin of error, e = Z*SD/Sqrt (N), where N = Sample population
Assuming a 95% confidence interval and substituting all the values;
At 95% confidence, Z = 1.96
Therefore,
0.23 = 1.96*1.9/Sqrt (N)
Sqrt (N) = 1.96*1.9/0.23
N = (1.96*1.9/0.23)^2 = 262.16 ≈ 263
Minimum sample size required is 263 students.
