3 0

Answer:

I should use at least 304 students

Step-by-step explanation:

Margin error (E) = t × sd/√n

E = 40

sd = 300

confidence level (C) = 98% = 0.98

significance level = 1 - C = 1 - 0.98 = 0.02 = 2%

t-value corresponding to 2% significance level and infinity degree of freedom is 2.326

n = (t×sd/E)^2 = (2.326×300/40)^2 = 17.445^2 = 304 (to the nearest integer)

A man bought a lot for 1200 and sold it for 1500. his percent of gain based on his purchase was
jok3333 [9.3K]

Answer: The percent gain was 25%.

Step-by-step explanation:

Given, Cost price of lot = $1,200

Selling price of lot = $1,500

The percent gain = \dfrac{\text{selling price- cost price}}{\text{cost price}}\times100

⇒ Percent gain =\dfrac{1500-1200}{1200}\times100\%

\Rightarrow\text{ Percent gain}=\dfrac{300}{1200}\times100\%\\\\\Rightarrow\text{ Percent gain}=\dfrac{1}{4}\times100\%\\\\\Rightarrow\text{ Percent gain}=25\%

Hence, the percent gain was 25% based on his purchase.

Which is the equation of a line that has a slope ot 1/2 and passes through the point 2, -3​
mamaluj [8]

Answer:

y=1/2x-4

Step-by-step explanation:

You are given the slope, 1/2. So you can plug it into the equation (y=mx+b)

You also need to plug in the x and y coordinate your given so you'll have

-3=1/2(2)+b. Then you solve for b, which is -4. You now have your answer, y=1/2x-4.

A 17.2 gallon gasoline tank is 1/2 full. How many gallons will it take to fill the tank?
love history [14]

Answer:

8.6

Step-by-step explanation:

We know that the tank is filled halfway, and it can hold 17.2 gallons, so we can just divide to figure out how much is half the tank (the amount we need to fill it)

17.2 / 2 = 8.6

We can check our work by multiplying

8.6 x 2 = 17.2

So it would take 8.6gal to fill it up. I hope this helps :)
