Answer:

Confidence Interval : 2.72% < p < 6.48%

Step-by-step explanation:

Number of randomly selected deaths = 669

Number of deaths caused by accident = 31

\text{Sample Proportion, p = }\frac{31}{669}=0.046

z-score for 98% confidence level = 2.326

\text{Margin of Error = }z\times \sqrt{\frac{p\cdot (1-p)}{n}}\\\\\text{Margin of error = }2.326\times \sqrt{\frac{0.046\times 0.954}{669}}\\\\\implies\text{Margin of error = }0.0188

Confidence Interval : 0.046 - 0.0188 < p < 0.046 + 0.0188

                                 : 0.0272 < p < 0.0648

                                 : 2.72% < p < 6.48%

Hence, Confidence Interval : 2.72% < p < 6.48%

Answer:

x >= -7  ................(1a)

x >= 3   ...............(2a1)

Step-by-step explanation:

f(x) =  \sqrt{x+7}-\sqrt{x^2+2x-15}  .............(0)

find the domain.

To find the (real) domain, we need to ensure that each term remains a real number.

which means the following conditions must be met

x+7 >= 0  .....................(1)

AND

x^2+2x-15 >= 0 ..........(2)

To satisfy (1),  x >= -7  .....................(1a) by transposition of (1)

To satisfy (2), we need first to find the roots of (2)

factor (2)

(x+5)(x-3) >= 0

This implis

(x+5) >= 0 AND (x-3) >= 0.....................(2a)

OR

(x+5) <= 0 AND (x-3) <= 0 ...................(2b)

(2a) is satisfied with x >= 3   ...............(2a1)

(2b) is satisfied with x <= -5 ................(2b1)

Combine the conditions (1a), (2a1), and (2b1),

x >= -7  ................(1a)

AND

(

x >= 3   ...............(2a1)

OR

x <= -5 ................(2b1)

)

which expands to

(1a) and (2a1)   OR  (1a) and (2b1)

( x >= -7 and x >= 3 )  OR ( x >= -7 and x <= -5 )

Simplifying, we have

x >= 3  OR ( -7 <= x <= -5 )

Referring to attached figure, the domain is indicated in dark (purple), the red-brown and white regions satisfiy only one of the two conditions.

Monica [59]
Write an equation to show all elements:

Cost of 4 lots of b (beads) + cost of 4p (pendants) = $18.80

Put values in;
9.29 + 4p = 18.80
4p = 18.80 - 9.20
4p = 9.60
p = 2.40 cost of each pendant
