Helga [31]

Answer:

The sample size needed is 2401.

Step-by-step explanation:

In a sample with a number n of people surveyed with a probability of a success of $\pi$ , and a confidence level of $1-\alpha$ , we have the following confidence interval of proportions.

$\pi \pm z\sqrt{\frac{\pi(1-\pi)}{n}}$

In which

z is the zscore that has a pvalue of $1 - \frac{\alpha}{2}$ .

The margin of error of the interval is:

$M = z\sqrt{\frac{\pi(1-\pi)}{n}}$

95% confidence level

So $\alpha = 0.05$ , z is the value of Z that has a pvalue of $1 - \frac{0.05}{2} = 0.975$ , so $Z = 1.96$ .

Estimate the sample size needed if no estimate of p is available so that the confidence interval will have a margin of error of 0.02.

We have to find n, for which M = 0.02.

There is no estimate of p available, so we use $\pi = 0.5$

$M = z\sqrt{\frac{\pi(1-\pi)}{n}}$

$0.02 = 1.96\sqrt{\frac{0.5*0.5}{n}}$

$0.02\sqrt{n} = 1.96*0.5$

$\sqrt{n} = \frac{1.96*0.5}{0.02}$

$(\sqrt{n})^{2} = (\frac{1.96*0.5}{0.02})^{2}$

$n = 2401$

The sample size needed is 2401.

50 Points!

Advocard [28]

Well, 50 points total given, 25 points per user and 13 bonus for brainliest

anyway

1.
add them equations, the y's will cancel
x+2y=4
3x-2y=4 +
4x+0y=8

4x=8
divide by 4 both sides
x=2
sub back
x+2y=4
2+2y=4
minus 2
2y=2
divide 2
y=1
x=2
y=1
(x,y)
(2,1) is solution

2.
the solution is where they intersect
multiply 2nd equation by 2 and add to first
4x-14y=6
-4x+14y=-6 +
0x+0y=0
0=0
infinite solutions

that is because they are actually the same line
the solutions are (x,y) such that they satisfy -2x+7y=-3 or 4x-14y=6 (same equaiton)
infinite solutions

3.
multiply first equation by 2 and add to first
4x+2y=-6
1x-2y=-4 +
5x+0y=-10

5x=-10
divide by 5 both sides
x=-2
sub bac
x-2y=-4
-2-2y=-4
add 2
-2y=-2
divide by -2
y=1

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

4.
coincident means they are the same line
so

we see that we have to multiply 4 by 2 to get 8
multiply top equation by 2
8x+10y=16
8x+By=C
B=10 and C=16

5.
a. false, either 0, 1, or infinity solutions
change the word 'two' to 'one' or 'zero' or 'infinite', or change 'can' into 'can't'

b.false
'sometimes' to 'always'

c. true

d. false, change 'sometimes' to 'always'

EC
total cost=150
TC=childC+adultC
TC=3c+5a
150=3c+5a

40 tickets, c+a
40=c+a

the equations are
150=3c+5a and
40=c+a

eliminate
multiply 2nd equaton by -3 and ad to first one

150=3c+5a
-120=-3c-3a +
30=0c+2a

30=2a
divide by 2
15=a

sub back
40=c+a
40=c+15
minus 15
25=c

25 children tickets and 15 adult tickets were sold

ANSWERS:

1.
(2,1) is solution

2.
infinite solutions

3.
(-2,1)

4.
B=10 and C=16

5.
a. false,
change the word 'two' to 'one' or 'zero' or 'infinite', or change 'can' into 'can't'

b.false
'sometimes' to 'always'

c. true

d. false, change 'sometimes' to 'always'

EC
the equations are
150=3c+5a and
40=c+a

As a nurse, part of your daily duties is to mix medications in the proper proportions for your patients. For one of your regular

spayn [35]

Answer:

10 milligrams of Medication A

Step-by-step explanation:

We'll write proportions/ratios for this:

20:16 is the usual proportion, and x:8 is this week's dose. The ratio from A to B has to be equal, so

20/16 = x/8

Cross-multiply:

(20)(8) = (16)(x)

160 = 16x

divide both sides by 16

x = 10
