Answer:

n=40 boys

Step-by-step explanation:

-Margin of error is given by the formula:

E=z\frac{\sigma}{\sqrt{n}}

-The z score for a probability of 92% is 1.75

#We make n the subject of the formula and substitute at a 92% confidence:

E=z\frac{\sigma}{\sqrt{n}}\\\\\sqrt{n}=\frac{z\sigma}{E}\\\\n=[\frac{z\sigma}{E}]^2\\\\\therefore n=[\frac{1.75\times 1.8}{0.5}]^2\\\\=39.69\approx 40

Hence, he needs approximately 40 boys for the study

Black_prince [1.1K]

Answer:

Midpoint is ( Average of x’s, Average of y’s )

1 = (x + 7)/2

2 = x + 7, x = - 5

and - 1 = (y + (-4))/2

so - 2 = y - 4 and y = 2

What is y=2x-3 y=-3/4x-1/4 with work shown please help
makvit [3.9K]
2X-3 = -3/4x -1/4
Add 3 on both sides: 2X = -3/4x + 2.75
Add -3/4x on both sides: 2.75X = 2.75
Divide 2.75 on both sides: x= 1

hope this helped
