Answer:

n=3.8416≅4

So Minimum Sample Size is 4

Step-by-step explanation:

In order to find the minimum sample size, the formula we use will be:

n= \frac{Z^2*S^2}{E^2}

Where:

n is sample size  

Z is the distribution

S is the standard deviation

E is the  Margin of error

S=3 ,E=3

For Z:

Alpha=1-0.95=0.05

Alpha/2=0.025=2.5%

From Cumulative Standard Distribution Table:

Z at Alpha/2 = 1.960

n= \frac{1.960^2*3^2}{3^2}

n=3.8416≅4

So Minimum Sample Size is 4

Given (x – 7)2 = 36, select the values of x.
Aneli [31]
Regroup
2(x-7)=36
Divide both sides by two
X-7= 36/2
Simplify 36/2 to 18
X-7=18
Add 7 to both sides
X=18+7
Simplify 18+7 to 25
X = 25

Elena-2011 [213]
To find out the amount Jenna earns, you need to multiply how much she earns per hour by the amount of hours she works for.

If she earns $8.75 for 1 hour, and works for 20 1/5 hours, she'll earn:
8.75 x 20 1/5 = 176.75

Jenna earns $176.75 before tax.
