Find the size of each of two samples (assume that they are of equal size) needed to estimate the difference between the proporti

ons of boys and girls under 10 years old who are afraid of spiders. Assume the "worst case" scenario for the value of both sample proportions. We want a 99% confidence level and for the error to be smaller than 0.02

Answer:

The sample size n = 4225

Step-by-step explanation:

We will use maximum error formula = \frac{z_{a} S.D}{\sqrt{n} }

but we will find sample size "n"

\sqrt{n}  = \frac{z_{a} S.D}{maximum error}

Squaring on both sides , we get

n  = (\frac{z_{a} S.D}{maximum error})^2

Given 99% confidence interval (z value) = 2.56

given maximum error = 0.02

n  = (\frac{z_{a} p(1-p)}{maximum error})^2

n≤ (\frac{2.56X\frac{1}{2} }{0.02}) ^{2}    ( here S.D = p(1-p) ≤ 1/2

on simplification , we get n = 4225

<u>Conclusion</u>:

The sample size of two samples is  n = 4225

<u>verification</u>:-

We will use maximum error formula = \frac{z_{a} S.D}{\sqrt{n} } = \frac{2.56 1/2}{\ \sqrt{4225} }  = 0.0196

substitute all values and simplify we get maximum error is 0.02

Find the value of x ​
maks197457 [2]

Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:

∠S=180-(54+62)=180-116=64°

using sin formula

\frac{x}{sin~64} =\frac{7}{sin~62} \\x=\frac{7~sin~64}{sin~62} \approx 7.1256 \approx 7.13

Find the missing angle measures in the triangles
Svetllana [295]

For the first triangle, I believe the given angles are 85 and 53. If I am incorrect, please let me know and I'll resolve it.

The answer for 1 would be 42.

2nd triangle- 69 is the missing angle measurement.

3rd- 64 degrees.

4th- 53

The reasoning behind all of these: The total of all three interior angles should be 180 degrees. So when you add the two GIVEN angles, and subtract that from 180, this answer is your missing angle.

(Also, for any other site or anything, it might be best to block out your name)
