Let n =  required random sample size.

Assume that the population standard deviation is known as σ.
Let m =  sample mean.
At the 95% confidence level, the expected range is
(m - k(σ/√n), m + k(σ/√n))
where k = 1.96.

Therefore the error margin is 1.96(σ/√n).
Because the error margin is specified as 3% or 0.03, therefore
(1.96σ)/√n = 0.03
√n = (1.96σ)/0.03
n = 128.05σ²

This means that the sample size is about 128 times the population variance.

Answer:
Smallest sample size = 128.05σ², where σ = population standard deviation.

Robert drew a parallelogram with 2 55 degree angles. What are the measures of the 2 other angles? Both of the angles have to be
Licemer1 [7]
Angles in a parallelogram have to equal 360.

Let x represent the measurement of the unknown angle.

2(55) + 2x = 360
110 + 2x = 360
2x = 250
x = 125

125 degrees

Question 4 of 10
ludmilkaskok [199]

Answer:

Option C. 3√3

Step-by-step explanation:

Please see attached photo for brief explanation.

In the attached photo, we obtained the following:

Opposite = a

Adjacent = 3

Hypothenus = 6

Angle θ = 60°

We can obtain the value of 'a' as follow:

Tan θ = Opposite /Adjacent

Tan 60° = a/3

Cross multiply

a = 3 x Tan 60°

But: Tan 60° = √3

a = 3 x Tan 60°

a = 3 x √3

a = 3√3

Therefore, the length of the altitude of the equilateral triangle is 3√3.

3k-2=10 whats the answer
kap26 [50]

Answer:

k = 4

Step-by-step explanation:

3k - 2 = 10

3k - 2 + 2 = 10 + 2     (adding 2 to both sides)

           3k = 12

        3k/3 = 12/3       (dividing both sides by 3)

             k = 4

Happy to help :)
