Step-by-step explanation:
Divide two on both sides to get rid of it and the make the equation in the form y = mx + c
y = 3/2x + 5
since both lines are parallel they must have the same gradient which is 3/2
y = 3/2x + c
All you have to do now is to replace x and y with (2, -5) to find c
x = 2
y = -5
-5 = 3/2 × 2 + c
-5 = 3 + c
c = -5-3
c = -8
Answer:
The sample size to obtain the desired margin of error is 160.
Step-by-step explanation:
The Margin of Error is given as
Rearranging this equation in terms of n gives
Now the Margin of Error is reduced by 2 so the new M_2 is given as M/2 so the value of n_2 is calculated as
As n is given as 40 so the new sample size is given as
So the sample size to obtain the desired margin of error is 160.
