The sample size should be 250.

Our margin of error is 4%, or 0.04. We use the formula

$\text{ME}=z\sqrt{\frac{\hat{p}(1-\hat{p})}{n}}$

To find the z-score:
Convert 98% to a decimal: 0.98
Subtract from 1: 1-0.98 = 0.02
Divide both sides by 2: 0.02/2 = 0.01
Subtract from 1: 1-0.01 = 0.99

Using a z-table (http://www.z-table.com) we see that this value has a z-score of approximately 2.33. Using this, our margin of error and our proportion, we have:

$0.04=2.33\sqrt{\frac{0.08(1-0.08)}{n}}
\\
\\0.04=2.33\sqrt{\frac{0.08(0.92)}{n}}$

Divide both sides by 2.33:
$\frac{0.04}{2.33}=\sqrt{\frac{0.08(0.92)}{n}}$

Square both sides:
$(\frac{0.04}{2.33})^2=\frac{0.08(0.92)}{n}$

Multiply both sides by n:
$(\frac{0.04}{2.33})^2n=0.08(0.92)$

Divide both sides to isolate n:
$\frac{0.08(0.92)}{(\frac{0.04}{2.33})^2}=n
\\
\\249.73=n
\\n\approx 250$

I need help with #47 to #50 ASAP…. Please help me with it

Ksenya-84 [330]

Step-by-step explanation:

a triangular number n is the sum of all natural numbers <= n.

t1 = 1

t2 = 1+2 = 3

t3 = 1+2+3 = 6

t4 = 1+2+3+4 = 10

...

so,

tn = tn-1 + n

47.

1×8 + 1 = 9 is a square number.

3×8 + 1 = 25 is a square number

6×8 + 1 = 49 is a square number

10×8 + 1 = 81 is a square number

48.

1/3 = 0 remainder 1

3/3 = 1 remainder 0

6/3 = 2 remainder 0

10/3 = 3 remainder 1

15/3 = 5 remainder 0

21/3 = 7 remainder 0

28/3 = 9 remainder 1

so, there seems to be a pattern 1 0 0 1 0 0 1 0 0 1 ...

49.

1/4 = 0 remainder 1

4/4 = 1 remainder 0

9/4 = 2 remainder 1

16/4 = 4 remainder 0

25/4 = 6 remainder 1

36/4 = 9 remainder 0

49/4 = 12 remainder 1

so, there seems to be a pattern 1 0 1 0 1 0 1 0 1 0 1 ...

50.

polygonal numbers is the real name for this.

the formula for dimensions = 5 is

(3n² − n)/2

for dimensions = 6 it is

2n² - n

so, dimensions=5 (and therefore dividing also by 5) we get the remainders

1/5 = 0 remainder 1

5/5 = 1 remainder 0

12/5 = 2 remainder 2

22/5 = 4 remainder 2

35/5 = 7 remainder 0

51/5 = 10 remainder 1

70/5 = 14 remainder 0

92/5 = 18 remainder 2

117/5 = 23 remainder 2

145/5 = 29 remainder 0

here the pattern is 1 0 2 2 0 1 0 2 2 0 1 0 2 2 0 ...

dimensions=6 (and therefore dividing also by 6) we get the remainders

1/6 = 0 remainder 1

6/6 = 1 remainder 0

15/6 = 2 remainder 3

28/6 = 4 remainder 4

45/6 = 7 remainder 3

66/6 = 11 remainder 0

91/6 = 15 remainder 1

120/6 = 20 remainder 0

153/6 = 25 remainder 3

190/6 = 31 remainder 4

231/6 = 38 remainder 3

276/6 = 46 remainder 0

325/6 = 54 remainder 1

here the pattern is 1 0 3 4 3 0 1 0 3 4 3 0 1 0 3 4 3 0 ...

Plz help me out :( I really can't fail this

Answer:

99.37

Step-by-step explanation:

Brief Math lesson:

If you, for example, pay 10% of your income of $100 to charity and 5% of it goes to taxes,

The amount that goes to charity can be found by using:

10% * 100 = 0.1 * 100 = 10

And the amount for taxes is

5% * 100 = 0.05 * 100 = 5

So the total is 15 dollars. And then, subtract that from your salary, so you would earn 85 dollars

We can also just find it by finding how much of a total percentage is being taken and subtract that by 100. (because you would keep the rest of the money)

(100% - (10% + 5%)) * 100 = 85% * 100 = 85

Now, let's apply this information.

First, figure out how much you need to pay in taxes, social security, etc.

15% + 6.44% + 6.2% + 1.45% = 29.09% of your money is given away. So, you would keep 100% - 29.09%, which is 70.91% kept

10.01 dollars an hour at 14 hours is 10.01*14 = 140.14 dollars

Now, multiply the percent of salary you keep by your salary.

140.14 * 70.91% = 140.14 * 0.7091 = 99.373274

This is, rounded,

99.37

Hope this helps! Feel free to ask any questions!
