If you havetriple 4 and subtract 2 each day how many days to zero

The slope of the equation is 1, now we just need to pick a set of points from which we derived the slope from (doesn't matter which) as y1 and x1 in the point-slope equation. (y-y1)=m(x-x1)

Your final answer can either be (y+20)=1(x+10) or (y+9)=1(x-1) but in the context of this question it is (y+20)=1(x+10)

The Information Technology Department at a large university wishes to estimate the proportion of students living in the dormitor

nadya68 [22]

Answer:

$n=\frac{0.5(1-0.5)}{(\frac{0.05}{1.96})^2}=384.16$

And rounded up we have that n=385

Step-by-step explanation:

Previous concepts

A confidence interval is "a range of values that’s likely to include a population value with a certain degree of confidence. It is often expressed a % whereby a population means lies between an upper and lower interval".

The margin of error is the range of values below and above the sample statistic in a confidence interval.

Normal distribution, is a "probability distribution that is symmetric about the mean, showing that data near the mean are more frequent in occurrence than data far from the mean".

Solution to the problem

In order to find the critical value we need to take in count that we are finding the interval for a proportion, so on this case we need to use the z distribution. Since our interval is at 99% of confidence, our significance level would be given by $\alpha=1-0.99=0.01$ and $\alpha/2 =0.005$ . And the critical value would be given by:
