Answer:

1/10

Step-by-step explanation:

Apparently, a "trial" is a representation of a sample of 4 students. If the digits in that sample are 8 or 9, the students did not watch television. We can revise each of the trials by changing digits 0-7 to W, and digits 8-9 to N. (W = watched TV; N = did not watch TV.)

Now, the 10 trials are ...

WWWW, WWWW, WWWW, WWWW,

WWWW, WWWW, WWWW, NWWW, WWNW, NWNW

Of the 10 trials, 1 trial had the result that exactly 2 of the 4 watched TV.

The probability that exactly 2 of 4 watched TV is about 1/10 = 10%.

Using the z-distribution, we have that:

a) A sample of 601 is needed.

b) A sample of 93 is needed.

c) A. Yes, using the additional survey information from part (b) dramatically reduces the sample size.

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

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

In which z is the z-score that has a p-value of $\frac{1+\alpha}{2}$ .

The margin of error is:

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

95% confidence level, hence $\alpha = 0.95$ , z is the value of Z that has a p-value of $\frac{1+0.95}{2} = 0.975$ , so $z = 1.96$ .

For this problem, we consider that we want it to be within 4%.

Item a:

The sample size is <u>n for which M = 0.04.</u>

There is no estimate, hence $\pi = 0.5$

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

$0.04 = 1.96\sqrt{\frac{0.5(0.5)}{n}}$

$0.04\sqrt{n} = 1.96\sqrt{0.5(0.5)}$

$\sqrt{n} = \frac{1.96\sqrt{0.5(0.5)}}{0.04}$

$(\sqrt{n})^2 = \left(\frac{1.96\sqrt{0.5(0.5)}}{0.04}\right)^2$

$n = 600.25$

Rounding up:

A sample of 601 is needed.

Item b:

The estimate is $\pi = 0.96$ , hence:

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

$0.04 = 1.96\sqrt{\frac{0.96(0.04)}{n}}$

$0.04\sqrt{n} = 1.96\sqrt{0.96(0.04)}$

$\sqrt{n} = \frac{1.96\sqrt{0.96(0.04)}}{0.04}$

$(\sqrt{n})^2 = \left(\frac{1.96\sqrt{0.96(0.04)}}{0.04}\right)^2$

$n = 92.2$

Rounding up:

A sample of 93 is needed.

Item c:

The closer the estimate is to $\pi = 0.5$ , the larger the sample size needed, hence, the correct option is A.

-2(x+5)=2 is an example of wich property

denpristay [2]

-2(x + 5) = 2 |use distributive property: a(b + c) = ab + ac

-2x - 10 = 2 |add 10 to both sides

-2x = 12 |divide both sides by (-2)

x = -6
