A polling organization announces that the proportion of American voters who favor congressional term limits is 64 percent, with

kvasek [131]

Answer:

We are 95% confident that the proportion of American voters who favor congressional term limits is 64 percent with a difference of 3% for small sample size.

Step-by-step explanation:

95 % confidence means that we are 95 % confident that the the proportion of American voters who favor congressional term limits is 64 percent.

95 % confidence means that of all the sample about 95 % values are within in the given range.

And only 5% sample are not included in the given parameter.

Margin of error is the amount of miscalculation or difference in change of circumstances from the obtained data.

3% margin of error usually occurs when the data size is small.

As the data size increases the margin of error decreases.

So this statement tells us that we are 95% confident that the proportion of American voters who favor congressional term limits is 64 percent with a difference of 3% for small sample size.

Margin of error= z *σ/√n→

This indicates that as the sample size decreases the margin of error increases and vice versa.

What are the approximate values of the minimum and maximum points of f(x) = x5 − 10x3 + 9x on [-3,3]?

nika2105 [10]

Answer:

Minimum : -37 at x=2.4 and

Maximum = 37 at x=-2.4.

Step-by-step explanation:

Given:

$f(x)=x^5-10x^3+9x$ ; [-3,3]

Explanation:

In order to find minimum/maximum of a function, we need to find the first derivative of the function and then set it equal to 0 to get critical points.

Therefore,

$f'(x)=5x^4-30x^2+9$

Setting derivative equal to 0, we get

$5x^4-30x^2+9=0$

On applying quadratic formula, we get

x=2.4, -2.4, -0.7, 0.7.

So, those are critical points of the given function.

Plugging the values x=2.4, -2.4, -0.7, 0.7, -3 and 3 in above function, we get

f(2.4)=(2.4)^5-10(2.4)^3+9(2.4)= -37.01376 : Minimum.

f(-2.4)=(-2.4)^5-10(-2.4)^3+9(-2.4)= 37.01376 : Maximum.

f(0.7)=(0.7)^5-10(0.7)^3+9(0.7) = 3.03807

f(-0.7)=(-0.7)^5-10(-0.7)^3+9(-0.7) = -3.03807

f(-3)=(-3)^5-10(-3)^3+9(-3) =0

f(3)=(3)^5-10(3)^3+9(3) =0

Therefore the approximate values of the minimum and maximum points of f(x) = $x^5- 10x^3+ 9x$ on [-3,3] are:

Minimum : -37 at x=2.4 and

Maximum = 37 at x=-2.4.

Find the surface area of this prism please (no links please)

horsena [70]

Answer:

192 ft^2

Step-by-step explanation:

to find the surface area of a shape, you must find the area of each side and add them together. the base of this shape is a rectangle with a length of 11ft and a height of 3ft; to calculate the area of a rectangle, you multiply the length by the height. 3*11 is 33, so the base of this prism has an area of 33ft^2. since this is a prism, we know that the side parallel to the base are the same shape, so they both have an area of 33ft^2. 33*2= 66. the two other large sides have a height of 4.5 and a length of 11; 4.5*11 is 49.5, there are two shapes with these dimensions, so 49.5*2=99. finally, the two shapes on either end of the prism have a height of 4.5 and a length of 3. 4.5*3= an area of 13.5, two of them, so 13.5*2=27. now you just add all of these numbers together: 66+99+27=192.
