0.5p + 8 because the quarterback completed 8 more passes (the "+ 8" part) than half the number of passes he attempted (the "0.5p" part).

If p is the number of passes attempted, then we need to convert the sentence part "8 more than half of the passes" into a mathematical expression. This expression would be (p/2)+8.

scoray [572]

Answer:

a. n=4148

b. n=3909

c. The sample size is smaller if a known proportion from prior study is used. The difference in sample sizes is 239

Step-by-step explanation:

a. For sample where no preliminary estimate is given, the minimum sample size is calculated using the formula:

n=p(1-p)(\frac{z}{ME})^2

Where:

  • ME=Margin of error
  • p= is the assumed proportion

#Let p=0.5, substitute in the formula to solve for n:

n=0.5(1-0.5)\times (2.576/0.02)^2\\\\=4147.36\approx 4148

Hence, the minimum sample size is 4148

b. If given a preliminary estimate p=0.38, we use the same formula but substitute p with the given value:

n=p(1-p)(z/ME)^2\\\\=0.38(1-0.38)(2.576/0.02)^2\\\\=3908.47\approx3909

Hence, the minimum sample size is 3909

c. Comparing the sample sizes from a and b:

n_{0.5}>n_{0.38}\\\\n_{0.5}-n_{0.38}=4148-3909=239

Hence, the actual sample size is smaller for a known proportion from prior a prior study.

John is looking at the eagle on top of a building The height of the building is 120 ft Approximately how many feet is Jack away
bearhunter [10]

Answer:

The answer is below

Step-by-step explanation:

The question is not complete. A similar question is attached and is solved.

Solution:

A triangle is a polygon with three sides and three angles. Types of triangles are scalene, acute, obtuse, isosceles, equilateral and right angled triangle.

A right angled triangle is a triangle with one angle equal to 90 degrees. The longest side of a right angled triangle is known as the hypotenuse. Trigonometric identities is used to show the relationship between the angles and sides of a right angled triangle, i.e.:

sinθ = opposite/hypotenuse; cosθ = adjacent / hypotenuse; tanθ = opposite / adjacent

From the image:

let the distance from jack to the base of the building be x, hence:

tan60 = x / 60

x = 60 * tan60 = 104 ft.

If f(n) = -6n + 2, find f (5/6)
joja [24]

f( \frac{5}{6} ) =  - 6( \frac{5}{6} ) + 2  \\ f( \frac{5}{6} ) = -  \frac{30}{6}  + 2 \\ f( \frac{5}{6} ) = - 5 + 2 \\ f( \frac{5}{6} ) = - 3

Solving the equation and something to do with log
Anastaziya [24]

Answer:

m= 1/2.

Step-by-step explanation:

To solve this, we must make the bases equivalent. We can do this by finding the common base which is 5.

We know that 125= 5³ and 25=5², which will help us in this equation. We can rewrite the equation substituting this for the original numbers:

5^{3(2m)} = 5^{2(m+1)} Distribute the exponents to get:

5^{6m} = 5^{2m+2}

Now, we can simply ignore the '5' and solve for 'm':

6m= 2m+2

4m= 2

m= 1/2.
