An analyst from an energy research institute in California wishes to precisely estimate a 99% confidence interval of the average
Lena [83]

Answer:

190

Step-by-step explanation:

Data provided in the question:

Confidence level = 99%

Therefore,

α = 1% = 0.01

[ from standard normal table ]

z-value for z_{\frac{\alpha}{2}}= z_{\frac{0.01}{2}}= = 2.58

Margin of error, E = $0.06

Standard deviation, σ = $0.32

Now,

n = (\frac{z_{0.005}\sigma}{E})^2

Here,

n is the sample size (or the minimum number of gas stations  )

on substituting the respective values, we get

= (\frac{z_{0.005}\sigma}{E})^2

= (\frac{2.58\times0.32}{0.06})^2

= 13.76²

= 189.3376 ≈ 190

Hence,

minimum number of gas stations that she should include in her sample is 190

Is y=3x+4 parallel or perpendicular
Sauron [17]

Answer: y=3x+4 is parallel to y=3x+7

Step-by-step explanation:

<h3> The complete exercise is: "Is y=3x+4 parallel, perpendicular or neither to y=3x+7?"</h3><h3 />

The equation of the line in Slope-Intercept form is:

y=mx+b

Where "m" is the slope of the line and "b" is the y-intercept.

First, in order to solve this exercise it is important to remember that, by definition:

1. The slopes of parallel lines are equal.

2. The slopes of perpendicular lines are negative reciprocal.

In this case, you have the following line given in the exercise:

 y=3x+4

You can identify that "m" and "b" are:

m=3\\b=4

And the other line provided in the exercise is this one:

y=3x+7

So, you can identify that:

m=3\\b=7

As you can notice, the slopes of both lines are equal; therefore, you can conclude that those lines are parallel.
