A soft drink manufacturer wishes to know how many soft drinks adults drink each week. They want to construct a 85% confidence in

terval with an error of no more than 0.08 A consultant has informed them that a previous study found the mean to be 3.13.1 soft drinks per week and found the variance to be 1.691.69. What is the minimum sample size required to create the specified confidence interval

Answer: 547

Step-by-step explanation: The margin of error formulae is given below as

Margin of error = critical value ×(σ/√n)

Where σ = standard deviation and n is the sample size.

From our question, margin of error = 0.08

Variance is 1.691,

hence σ = √variance = √1.691

= 1.3.

We will be using a z test for our critical value this is because a soft drink manufacturer will always produce drinks more than 30 in numbers.

The critical value for a 85% confidence interval is 1.44.

Hence critical value is 1.44.

By substituting the parameters, we have that

0.08 = 1.44 × 1.3/ √n

0.08 = 1.873/ √n

By cross multiplying

0.08 × √n = 1.873

√n = 1.873/ 0.08

√n = 23.41

n = (23.41)²

n = 547.

In a game the player wins if he rolls a 6 on a number cube .if the number cube is rolled 18 times then what is the reasonable
sp2606 [1]
<h2>Answer:</h2>

Prediction for the number of unsuccessful rolls is 15.

<h2>Step-by-step explanation:</h2>

There is \frac{1}{6} chance of rolling number 6 on the cube. If we want to find out what is the prediction for rolling number 6 in 18 rolls, we need to multiply 6*\frac{1}{6} which is 3. So if we roll a cube 18 times, we will probably got number 6 three times. When we subtract 3 from 18 (18-3), we get 15. That is the answer to your question.

Help this is due tomorrow but she didn’t teach us how.

Answer:

  see below for drawings and description

Step-by-step explanation:

For geometry problems involving translation, rotation, and reflection—transformations that change location, but not size ("rigid" transformations)—it might be helpful for you to trace the image onto tracing paper or clear plastic so that you can manipulate it in the desired way. Eventually, you'll be able to do this mentally, without the aid of a physical object to play with.

For the images attached here, I copied the triangle onto a piece of clear plastic so I could move it to the desired positions. The result was photographed for your pleasure.

__

a. Translation means the image is moved without changing its orientation or dimensions. You are asked to copy the triangle so that the upper left vertex is moved to what is now point E. See the first attachment.

__

b. Reflection means the points are copied to the same distance on the other side of the point or line of reflection. Just as an object held to a mirror has its reflection also at the mirror, any points on the line of reflection do not move. Reflection flips the image over. See the second attachment.

__

c. Rotation about point D means point D stays where it is. The angle of rotation is the same as the angle at D, so the line DE gets rotated until it aligns with the line DF. The rest of the triangle maintains its shape. See the third attachment.

The width of a rectangle is 8 inches longer than its length. The perimeter is 104 inches.
Vesna [10]

Answer:

The width of the rectangle is 56 and the length is 48

Step-by-step explanation:

divide the perimeter in half (52 + 52)

then subtract 4 from one of the 52's

you get the answer of 56 and 48

Your answer can be checked by conferming that 56 - 48 = 8 so the width of a rectangle is 8 inches longer than its length.
