8 / 86 = 12 / x
cross multiply
(8)(x) = (86)(12)
8x = 1032
x = 1032/8
x = 129 pieces

A researcher wants to estimate the percentage of all adults that have used the Internet to seek pre-purchase information in the
Lubov Fominskaja [6]

Answer:

The required sample size for the new study is 801.

Step-by-step explanation:

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 zscore that has a pvalue of 1 - \frac{\alpha}{2}.

The margin of error is:

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

25% of all adults had used the Internet for such a purpose

This means that \pi = 0.25

95% confidence level

So \alpha = 0.05, z is the value of Z that has a pvalue of 1 - \frac{0.05}{2} = 0.975, so Z = 1.96.

What is the required sample size for the new study?

This is n for which M = 0.03. So

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

0.03 = 1.96\sqrt{\frac{0.25*0.75)}{n}}

0.03\sqrt{n} = 1.96\sqrt{0.25*0.75}

\sqrt{n} = \frac{1.96\sqrt{0.25*0.75}}{0.03}

(\sqrt{n})^2 = (\frac{1.96\sqrt{0.25*0.75}}{0.03})^2

n = 800.3

Rounding up:

The required sample size for the new study is 801.

Five times the number of test tubes in a school’s chemistry lab exceeds three times the number of beakers it has by 660. The sum
Usimov [2.4K]
<span>5t=3b+660....and ... 2t+5b=450

from the first we can see that t=(3b+660)/5 and using this value in the second...

(6b+1320)/5+5b=450 making all have common denominator..

6b+1320+25b=2250

31b=930

b=30...and since 2t+5b=450

t=150</span>

Mixed in a drawer are 44 blue​ socks, 88 white​ socks, and 44 gray socks. You pull out two​ socks, one at a​ time, without looki
MrRissso [65]

Answer:

The probability of getting 2 socks of the same color is 1/3.

Step-by-step explanation:

In the drawer,

Number of blue socks = 4

Number of white socks = 8

Number of gray socks = 4

Total number of socks  = 4 + 8 + 4 = 16

Total ways to select 2 socks form 16 socks is

^{16}C_2=\dfrac{16!}{2!(16-2)!}=120

Total ways to select 2 socks of the same color is

T = Possible ways of (2 blue + 2 white +2 gray) socks

  = ^{4}C_2+^{8}C_2+^{4}C_2

  = 6+28+6

  = 40

The probability of getting 2 socks of the same color is

Probability=\dfrac{\text{Total ways to select 2 socks of the same color}}{\text{Total ways to select 2 socks form 16 socks}}

Probability=\dfrac{40}{120}

Probability=\dfrac{1}{3}

Therefore, the probability of getting 2 socks of the same color is 1/3.
