Use the system of equations to answer the questions. 2x + 3y = 3, y = 8 - 3x. The value of y from the second equation is substit

Fittoniya [83]

Answer:

x=3 y=-1

Step-by-step explanation:

To get the value of x you need to put in the second equation which is y=8-3x as the y value for the first equation which is 2x+3y=3 making it

2x+3(8-3x)=3

2x+24-9x =3

24-7x =3

-7x=-21

Multiplying both sides by -7

x= 3

After getting an x value you substitute it in the equation in order to find your y value which is

2x+3y=3

2(3)+3y=3

3y=-3

Multiplying both sides by 3

y= <u>-3</u>

3

y=-1

You want to obtain a sample to estimate a population proportion. At this point in time, you have no reasonable estimate for the

Vesna [10]

Answer:

A sample size of at least 1,353,733 is required.

Step-by-step explanation:

In a sample with a number n of people surveyed with a probability of a success of , and a confidence level of , 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 .

The margin of error is:

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

98% confidence level

So $\alpha = 0.02$ , z is the value of Z that has a pvalue of $1 - \frac{0.02}{2} = 0.99$ , so $Z = 2.327$ .

You would like to be 98% confident that you esimate is within 0.1% of the true population proportion. How large of a sample size is required?

We need a sample size of at least n.

n is found when M = 0.001.

Since we don't have an estimate for the proportion, we use the worst case scenario, that is $\pi = 0.5$

So

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

$0.001 = 2.327\sqrt{\frac{0.5*0.5}{n}}$

$0.001\sqrt{n} = 2.327*0.5$

$\sqrt{n} = \frac{2.327*0.5}{0.001}$

$(\sqrt{n})^{2} = (\frac{2.327*0.5}{0.001})^{2}$

$n = 1353732.25$

Rounding up

A sample size of at least 1,353,733 is required.
