Answer:

"Decreasing the sample size."

Step-by-step explanation:

The margin of error is :

ME=z\times \frac{\sigma }{\sqrt{n}}

Therefore, as n decreases, margin of error increases.

In the question we are asked " Which action will not reduce the margin of error."

Therefore, the correct option for which action will not reduce the margin of error is "Decreasing the sample size."

    5x³ + 8x² - 7x - 6

1)

x + 2 is a factor because when using synthetic division, the remainder is zero.

-2  |  5    8    -7    -6

    <u>|  ↓   -10    4     6 </u>

       5   -2    -3     0  ← remainder is zero

2)

x + 2 is not a factor because when using synthetic division, the remainder is not zero.

-1  |  5    8    -7    -6

    <u>|  ↓  -5    -3     10 </u>

       5   3    -10    4  ← remainder is not zero

Help 3 and 4 please!!!!!!!!!!!!

Easy peasy

the bit where it says
D={something}
those are the numbers you should input for x to get y values


3.
first solve for y to make life easier
-3x-5y=20
times -1
3x+5y=-20
minus 3x both sides
5y=-3x-20
divide both sides by 5
y=-3/5x-4
sub value of the domain
x=-10
y=-3/5(-10)-4
y=6-4
y=2
a point is (-10,2)

x=-5
y=-3/5(-5)-4
y=3-4
y=-1
(-5,-1) is another

x=0
y=-3/5(0)-4
y=-4
(0,-4) is another

x=5
y=-3/5(5)-4
y=-3-4
y=-7
(5,-7)

points are (-10,2), (-5,-1), (0,-4), (5,-7)



4.
input
x=-2
y=(-2)^2-3
y=4-3
y=1
(-2,1)

x=-1
y=(-1)^2-3
y=1-3
y=-2
(-1,-2)

x=0
y=(0)^2-3
y=-3
(0,-3)

x=1
y=(1)^2-3
y=1-3
y=-3
(1,-3)

x=2
y=(2)^2-3
y=4-3
y=1
(2,1)

the points are (-2,1), (-1,-2), (0,-3), (1,-2), (-2,1)

Archie is stranded in a war zone in the land of the Xhosas. His only chance of survival is to reach Sudland, which lies 100 mile
LenaWriter [7]

Answer:

The  chances of success for Archie is P(S|D) =  35\%

Step-by-step explanation:

From the question we are told that

 The distance of Sudland from Xhosas is   d =  100 miles

  The probability  of failure is  P(F) = 0.26

  The probability of choosing the desert route is   P(D) = \frac{1}{40} =  0.025

The probability of reaching Sudland through the mountain is  P(S|M) =0.75

Generally the probability of choosing the  mountains route is

         P(M) = 1 - P(D)

           P(M) = 1 - 0.025

             P(M) = 0.975

Generally the probability of success is mathematically represented as

       P(S) =  1- P(F)

         P(S) =  1- 0.26

          P(S) =  0.74

       

Generally the probability of success in reaching Sudland is also mathematically represented as

     P(S) =  P(S|M) * P(M) + P(S|D) * P(D)

=>   P(S|D) =  \frac{P(S) - P(S|M) * P(M)}{P(D)}

substituting values

=>  P(S|D) =  \frac{0.74 - 0.75 * 0.975}{0.025}  

=>  P(S|D) = 0.35  

=>  P(S|D) =  35\%
