So, you want to get the mixed number, 3 3/4, as a fraction. Multiply 3 by 4 and add it to the top of the fraction, getting you the fraction 15/4. Multiply the top and bottom by 2, getting the denominator to 8 and the numerator to 30. Now, you have two fractions, 30/8 and 3/8, with common denominators. Divide 30 by 3, you get 10. 10 books for the first part. Using this explanation you'll find that the new shelf can hold 14 books.

F(x) = x°-9x
laila [671]
F(x)=x^3-9x
and
g(x)=x^2-2x-3

so you just need to divide f(x) by g(x)

Therefore:

f(x)/g(x) = (x^3-9x) / (x^2-2x-3)

and of course you need to factor these two function to see if some factor would cancel another

x^3-9x = x(x^2-9)=x(x-3)(x+3)
and
x^2-2x-3 = (x-3)(x+1)

12. If a manufacturer conducted a survey among randomly selected target market households and wanted to be 95% confident that th

Answer:

n=\frac{0.5(1-0.5)}{(\frac{0.03}{1.96})^2}=1067.11  

And rounded up we have that n=1068

Step-by-step explanation:

We have the following info given:

Confidence= 0.95 the confidence level desired

ME =0.03 represent the margin of error desired

The margin of error for the proportion interval is given by this formula:  

ME=z_{\alpha/2}\sqrt{\frac{\hat p (1-\hat p)}{n}}    (a)  

The confidence level is 95% or 0.95, the significance is \alpha=0.05 and the critical value for this case using the normal standard distribution would be z_{\alpha/2}=1.96

Since we don't have prior information we can use \hat p= 0.5 as an unbiased estimator

Also we know that ME =\pm 0.03 and we are interested in order to find the value of n, if we solve n from equation (a) we got:  

n=\frac{\hat p (1-\hat p)}{(\frac{ME}{z})^2}   (b)  

And replacing into equation (b) the values from part a we got:

n=\frac{0.5(1-0.5)}{(\frac{0.03}{1.96})^2}=1067.11  

And rounded up we have that n=1068
