Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:

Line m and n are parallel lines cut by the transversal (without name). So, angles with measures $65^{\circ}$ and $(3x+5)^{\circ}$ are corresponding angles.

The Corresponding Angles Theorem states if two parallel lines are cut by a transversal, then the pairs of corresponding angles are congruent.

Hence,

$3x+5=65\\ \\3x+5-5=65-5\\ \\3x=60\\ \\x=\dfrac{60}{3}\\ \\x=20$

Answer:

Explained below.

Step-by-step explanation:

According to the Central limit theorem, if from an unknown population large samples of sizes n > 30, are selected and the sample proportion for each sample is computed then the sampling distribution of sample proportion follows a Normal distribution.

The mean of this sampling distribution of sample proportion is:

$\mu_{\hat p}= p$

The standard deviation of this sampling distribution of sample proportion is:

$\sigma_{\hat p}=\sqrt{\frac{p(1-p)}{n}}$

(a)

The sample selected is of size <em>n</em> = 450 > 30.

Then according to the central limit theorem the sampling distribution of sample proportion is normally distributed.

The mean and standard deviation are:

$\mu_{\hat p}=p=0.75\\\\\sigma_{\hat p}=\sqrt{\frac{p(1-p)}{n}}=\sqrt{\frac{0.75(1-0.75)}{450}}=0.0204$

So, the sampling distribution of sample proportion is $\hat p\sim N(0.75,0.0204^{2})$ .

(b)

Compute the probability that the sample proportion will be within 0.04 of the population proportion as follows:

$P(p-0.04$

$=P(-1.96$

Thus, the probability that the sample proportion will be within 0.04 of the population proportion is 0.95.

(c)

The sample selected is of size <em>n</em> = 200 > 30.

Then according to the central limit theorem the sampling distribution of sample proportion is normally distributed.

The mean and standard deviation are:

$\mu_{\hat p}=p=0.75\\\\\sigma_{\hat p}=\sqrt{\frac{p(1-p)}{n}}=\sqrt{\frac{0.75(1-0.75)}{200}}=0.0306$

So, the sampling distribution of sample proportion is $\hat p\sim N(0.75,0.0306^{2})$ .

(d)

Compute the probability that the sample proportion will be within 0.04 of the population proportion as follows:

$P(p-0.04$

$=P(-1.31$

Thus, the probability that the sample proportion will be within 0.04 of the population proportion is 0.81.

(e)

The probability that the sample proportion will be within 0.04 of the population proportion if the sample size is 450 is 0.95.

And the probability that the sample proportion will be within 0.04 of the population proportion if the sample size is 200 is 0.81.

So, there is a gain in precision on increasing the sample size.

What is the missing numerator of 4/9= ?/81

yKpoI14uk [10]

To solve this question, first cross multiply
Let ? = x

4/9 = x/81

4(81) = 9(x)

Simplify.

81 x 4 = 324

324 = 9x

Isolate the x, divide 9 from both sides

324/9 = 9x/9

x = 324/9

x = 36

4/9 = 36/81

36 is your answer

hope this helps!
