Answer:

19.5 miles

Step-by-step explanation:

The question is represented in the image attached.

∠A = 45°, ∠B = 45° + (216° - 180°) = 81°

∠A + ∠B + ∠C = 180° (sum of angles in a triangle)

45° + 81° + ∠C = 180°

126 + ∠C = 180

∠C = 180 - 126

∠C = 54°

The sine rule states that for a triangle with sides a, b, c and their corresponding opposite angles A, B and C. The following rule holds:

\frac{a}{sin(A)}= \frac{b}{sin(B)}= \frac{c}{sin(C)}

b = length of beginning of submarine to end point. Using sine rule:

\frac{b}{sin(81)} =\frac{16}{sin(54)} \\\\b=\frac{16}{sin(54)}*sin(81)\\\\b=19.5\ miles

A confidence interval was used to estimate the proportion of statistics students that are female. A random sample of 72 statisti
jeyben [28]

Answer:

We need a sample of size at least 13.

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 is:

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

90% confidence interval: (0.438, 0.642).

The proportion estimate is the halfway point of these two bounds. So

\pi = \frac{0.438 + 0.642}{2} = 0.54

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.

Using the information above, what size sample would be necessary if we wanted to estimate the true proportion to within ±0.08 using 95% confidence?

We need a sample of size at least n.

n is found when M = 0.08. So

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

0.08 = 1.96\sqrt{\frac{0.54*0.46}{n}}

0.08\sqrt{n} = 1.96\sqrt{0.54*0.46}

\sqrt{n} = \frac{1.96\sqrt{0.54*0.46}}{0.08}

(\sqrt{n})^{2} = (\frac{1.96\sqrt{0.54*0.46}}{0.08})^{2}

n = 12.21

Rounding up

We need a sample of size at least 13.
