A survey found that 89% of a random sample of 1024 American adults approved of cloning endangered animals. Find the margin of er
Kobotan [32]

Answer:

The margin of error for the survey is 0.016

Step-by-step explanation:

We are given the following in the question:

Sample size, n = 1024

Sample proportion:

\hat{p} = 89\% = 0.89

We have to find the margin of error associated with a 90% Confidence interval.

Formula for margin of error:

z_{stat}\times \sqrt{\dfrac{\hat{p}(1-\hat{p})}{n}}

z_{critical}\text{ at}~\alpha_{0.10} = 1.64

Putting the values, we get:

M.E = 1.64\times (\sqrt{\dfrac{0.89(1-0.89)}{1024}})\\\\M.E=0.016

Thus, the margin of error for the survey is 0.016

1. The Cajun Heartland State Fair charges $1.25 per ticket for the rides. Johnny bought 25 tickets for the rides and spent a tot
vladimir1956 [14]

<u>Part (a)</u>

The variable y is the dependent variable and the variable x is the independent variable.

<u>Part (b)</u>

The cost of one ticket is $1.25. Therefore, the cost of 25 tickets will be: .

Now, we know that Johnny spent his money only on ride tickets and fair admission and that he spent a total of $43.75.

Therefore, the price of the fair admission is: $43.75-$31.25=$12.5

If we use y to represent the total cost and x to represent the number of ride tickets, the linear equation that can be used to determine the cost for anyone who only pays for ride tickets and fair admission can be  written as:

y=1.25x+12.5......Equation 1

<u>Part (c)</u>

The above equation is logical because, in general, the total cost of the rides will depend upon the number of ride tickets bought and that will be 1.25x. Now, even if one does not take any rides, that is when x=0, they still will have to pay for the fair admission, and thus their total cost, y=$12.5.

Likewise, any "additional" cost will depend upon the number of ride tickets bought as already suggested. Thus, the total cost will be the sum of the total ride ticket cost and the fixed fair admission cost. Thus, the above Equation 1 is the correct representative linear equation of the question given.

Given right triangle ABCABC with altitude \overline{BD} BD drawn to hypotenuse ACAC. If BC=10BC=10 and DC=5,DC=5, what is the le
Helen [10]

Answer: \overline{AC}= 12.5

Step-by-step explanation: The triangle ABC and its altitude \overline{BD} is represented in the figure below.

<u>Altitude</u> is a segment of line that link a vertex and the opposite side, forming a right angle.

So, because of \overline{BD}, now we have two similar triangles, which means that ratios of corresponding sides are equal:

\frac{\overline{BD}}{\overline{BC}} =\frac{\overline{AD}}{\overline{BD}}

\overline{BD}^{2}=\overline{BC}.\overline{AD} (1)

This is always true for a right triangle and a altitude drawn to the hypotenuse.

Triangle BDC is also right triangle. So, we can use Pythagorean theorem to determine the missing side.

\overline{BC}^{2}=\overline{CD}^{2}+\overline{BD}^{2}

\overline{BD}^{2}=\overline{BC}^{2}-\overline{CD}^{2} (2)

Substituting (2) into (1):

\overline{BC}^{2}-\overline{CD}^{2}=\overline{BC}.\overline{AD}

We want to find f, so:

\overline{AD}=\frac{\overline{BC}^{2}-\overline{CD}^{2}}{\overline{BC}}

f=\frac{10^{2}-5^{2}}{10}

f = 7.5

The length of \overline{AC} is

\overline{AC}=f+5

\overline{AC}=7.5+5

\overline{AC}=12.5

The length of the hypotenuse of triangle ABC is 12.5 units.

kotegsom [21]

Answer:

q(p)= -3000p+12000

Step-by-step explanation:

For the function to be linear,

q(p)= mp + c

where

q(p): number of hamburgers sold

p: price per hamburger

m: gradient of the function

c: constant of the function

q(p)=6000 when p=2

6000=2m+c .................... equation I

0=4m+c

c=-4m........................ equation II

Substitute value of c in equation I

6000=2m-4m

m= -3000

c=12000

q(p)= -3000p+12000
