Answer:
And rounded up we have that n=1068
Step-by-step explanation:
We have the following info given:
the confidence level desired
represent the margin of error desired
The margin of error for the proportion interval is given by this formula:
(a)
The confidence level is 95% or 0.95, the significance is and the critical value for this case using the normal standard distribution would be
Since we don't have prior information we can use as an unbiased estimator
Also we know that and we are interested in order to find the value of n, if we solve n from equation (a) we got:
(b)
And replacing into equation (b) the values from part a we got:
And rounded up we have that n=1068

Answer:
- 0.83
- 0.9
- steeper than
- slower than
Step-by-step explanation:
Letting t=1 in Ted's equation, we find that he climbs 5/6 stairs in 1 second. As a decimal, 5/6 ≈ 0.83.
Michael climbs 9 stairs in 10 seconds so his rate is ...
... (9 stairs)/(10 seconds) = (9/10) stairs/second = 0.9 stairs/second
Michael's graph will be a line with a slope of 0.9; Ted's graph will be a line with a slope of about 0.83, so the line on Michael's graph is steeper.
Ted climbs fewer stairs per second, so his rate is slower than Michael's.

<em>Comment on the problem</em>
You're being asked to compare two different rates that are associated with two different people. First the comparison is one way, then it is the other way. This can be confusing. It might be helpful to draw and label a simple chart to help you keep it straight. (The attachment is such a chart scribbled on a bit of scratch paper. It is sufficient for the purpose.)
