Answer: Option D

Step-by-step explanation:

The equation of the line in slope intercept form is:

y=mx+b

Where m is the slope and b the y-intercept.

Solve for y from both equations:

5y=-3x+9\\y=\frac{-3}{5}x+\frac{9}{5}

5y=-3x+15\\y=\frac{-3}{5}x+3

As you can see, the slopes of the lines are equal, therefore, they are parallel.

If the lines are parallel then the system of equtions has no solution.

Answer:

Choice D  is correct answer.

Step-by-step explanation:

We have given a system of equations.

3x + 5y = 9                             eq(1)

3x + 5y = 15                          eq(2)

We have to find the description of the solution of equations.

y = mx+c is the slope-intercept of equation of line where m is slope and c is y-intercept.

Eq(1) can be written as:

y = -3/5x + 3 where slope is -3/5.

Eq(2) can be written as:

y = -3/5x+5 where slope is -3/5.

Equations with equal slopes are of parallel lines and parallel lines have no solution.Hence, system has no solutions.

Choice D  is correct answer.

In a survey of randomly selected 3,900 family-owned businesses with revenues exceeding $1 million a year, it was found that 1,91
Maurinko [17]

Answer:

a) The 90% confidence interval to estimate the proportion of family-owned businesses without strategic business plans is (0.4768, 0.5032). This means that we are 90% sure that the true proportion of all family-owned businesses without strategic business plans is between these two values.

b) Wider

Step-by-step explanation:

Question a:

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 z-score that has a p-value of 1 - \frac{\alpha}{2}.

In a survey of randomly selected 3,900 family-owned businesses with revenues exceeding $1 million a year, it was found that 1,911 of them had no strategic business plan.

This means that n = 3900, \pi = \frac{1911}{3900} = 0.49

90% confidence level

So \alpha = 0.1, z is the value of Z that has a p-value of 1 - \frac{0.1}{2} = 0.95, so Z = 1.645.

The lower limit of this interval is:

\pi - z\sqrt{\frac{\pi(1-\pi)}{n}} = 0.49 - 1.645\sqrt{\frac{0.49*0.51}{3900}} = 0.4768

The upper limit of this interval is:

\pi + z\sqrt{\frac{\pi(1-\pi)}{n}} = 0.49 + 1.645\sqrt{\frac{0.49*0.51}{3900}} = 0.5032

The 90% confidence interval to estimate the proportion of family-owned businesses without strategic business plans is (0.4768, 0.5032). This means that we are 90% sure that the true proportion of all family-owned businesses without strategic business plans is between these two values.

Question b:

The margin of error is:

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

The higher the confidence level, the higher the value of z, thus the higher the margin of error and the interval is wider. Thus, a 99% confidence interval is wider than a 90% confidence interval.
