Suppose that we wanted to estimate the true average number of eggs a queen bee lays with 95 percent confidence. The margin of er

ror we are willing to accept is 0.5. Suppose we also know that s is about 10. At minimum, what sample size should we use ?

Answer:

At least 1537 samples needed to estimate the true average number of eggs a queen bee lays with 95 percent confidence

Step-by-step explanation:

Minimum sample size required can be found using the formula

N≥(\frac{z*s}{ME} )^2 where

  • N is the sample size
  • z is the corresponding z-score of 95% confidence level (1.96)
  • s is the standard deviation (10)
  • ME is the margin of error (0.5)

then N≥(\frac{1.96*10}{0.5} )^2 =1536.64

Then, at least 1537 samples needed to estimate the true average number of eggs a queen bee lays with 95 percent confidence

Anikka's bike = (4*k) - 2 

(4*(1/2)) - 2 = 0  

It's more than half because anything less would cause Annika to ride her bicycle in a negative distance since

What is the domain of the function?
ivann1987 [24]
For a radical with an even root, like 2 in this case, if the radicand turns to a negative value, the result is just an imaginary value, which is another way to say, there's no such a root, no solution per se.

for that, let's first check when the radicand turns to 0 first.

\bf -8x+8=0\implies -8x=-8\implies x=\cfrac{-8}{-8}\implies \boxed{x=1}

so, that happens when x = 1, -8(1) +8, is just -8+8 or 0, ok.

so.. if "x" goes a bit higher, like say 2, -8(2) + 8 --> -16 + 8 --> -16

you'd get a negative value, and the radical doesn't have a root for that.

so... the domain, or values "x" can safely take without making the square root expression a negative value, are 1 or below, for example, if we use say -5

-8(-5) + 8 --> 40+8 --> 48  <------ a positive value

thus, (-∞, 1]

Find the distance between the complex numbers. z1=9-9i, z2=10-9i
kherson [118]
\bf z_1=\stackrel{a}{9}\stackrel{b}{-9}i\implies (9~,~-9)\qquad \qquad \qquad z_2=\stackrel{a}{10}\stackrel{b}{-9}i\implies (10~,~-9)\\\\&#10;-------------------------------\\\\&#10;~~~~~~~~~~~~\textit{distance between 2 points}\\ \quad \\

\bf \begin{array}{ccccccccc}&#10;&&x_1&&y_1&&x_2&&y_2\\&#10;%  (a,b)&#10;&&(~{{ 9}} &,&{{ -9}}~) &#10;%  (c,d)&#10;&&(~{{ 10}} &,&{{ -9}}~)&#10;\end{array}\quad &#10;%  distance value&#10;d = \sqrt{({{ x_2}}-{{ x_1}})^2 + ({{ y_2}}-{{ y_1}})^2}&#10;\\\\\\&#10;d=\sqrt{[10-9]^2+[-9-(-9)]^2}\implies d=\sqrt{(10-9)^2+(-9+9)^2}&#10;\\\\\\&#10;d=\sqrt{1^2+0}\implies d=\sqrt{1}\implies d=1
