Answer:

The margin of error is approximately 0.3

Step-by-step explanation:

The following information has been provided;

The sample size, n =225 students

The sample mean number of hours spent studying per week = 20.6

The standard deviation = 2.7

The question requires us to determine the margin of error that would be associated with a 90% confidence level. In constructing confidence intervals of the population mean, the margin of error is defined as;

The product of the associated z-score and the standard error of the sample mean. The standard error of the sample mean is calculated as;

\frac{sigma}{\sqrt{n} }

where sigma is the standard deviation and n the sample size. The z-score associated with a 90% confidence level, from the given table, is 1.645.

The margin of error is thus;

1.645*\frac{2.7}{\sqrt{225}}=0.2961

Therefore, the margin of error is approximately 0.3

Simplify the trigonometric expression.
Natasha_Volkova [10]
First we are going to find the common denominator of both fractions. To do that, we are going to multiply their denominators:
(1+sin \alpha )(1-sin \alpha )=1-sin^2 \alpha

Now we can rewrite our expression using the common denominator:
\frac{1-sin \alpha }{1-sin^2 \alpha } + \frac{1+sin \alpha }{1-sin^2 \alpha} = \frac{2}{1-sin^2 \alpha}

Finally, we can use the trig identities: 1-sin^2 \alpha =cos^2 \alpha and sec \alpha = \frac{1}{cos \alpha } to simplify our trig expression:
\frac{2}{cos^2\alpha}=2sec^2 \alpha

We can conclude that the correct answer is the fourth one.

For a Saturday matinee, adult tickets cost $8.50 and kids under 12 pay only $7.00. If 80 tickets are sold for a total
jolli1 [7]

Answer:

  • 30 adult tickets,
  • 50 kids tickets

Step-by-step explanation:

<u>Given</u>

  • Cost of adult ticket = $8.50
  • Cost of kids ticket = $7.00
  • Number of tickets = 80
  • Total cost = $605

Let the adult ticket be a and kids be k

<u>We got equations</u>

  • a + k = 80
  • 8.5a + 7k = 605

<u>From the first equation we get</u>

  • k = 80 -a

<u>Substituting k in the second equation</u>

  • 8.5a + 7(80 - a) = 605
  • 8.5a - 7a + 560= 605
  • 1.5a = 45
  • a = 45/1.5
  • a = 30

<u>Then finding k</u>

  • k = 80 - 30 = 50

9. Find the mean of the data set: 2, 3, 4, 5, 5
Leni [432]

Answer: Step 1 box= 19 (2+3+4+5+5)

Step 2 box= 3.8 (19 divided by 5)

Step-by-step explanation:

You add together the numbers to get 19, the you divide the number by five because you added 5 numbers together.

You had it just right on the bottom. Your equation was perfect. It doesn't matter if you get a decimal number.

Your answers are right too, I double checked.

Hope I was helpful.
