Solution:

Required margin of error  = 0.05

Estimated population proportion p = 0.8

Significance level = 0.10

The \text{provided estimate population proportion} p is 0.8

The significance level, α = 0.1 is z_c=1.645, which is obtained by looking into a standard normal probability table.

The number of patients surveyed to estimate the population proportion p within the required margin of error :

$n \geq p(1-p)\left(\frac{z_c}{E}\right)^2$

  $=0.8\times (1-0.8)\left(\frac{1.64}{0.05}\right)^2$

  = 173.15

Therefore, the number of patients surveyed to satisfy the condition is n ≥ 173.15 and  it must be an integer number.

Thus we conclude that the number of patients surveyed so the margin of error of 90% confidence interval is within 0.05 are n= 174.

quester [9]

Answer:

C) 31,045.50

Step-by-step explanation:

<em>p*</em>855= amount of money made from sold products

You must subtract the amount of money spent from the amount of money made from sold products.

213750-6780=206970

To find the amount that the CEO of the company owned, you must multiply the number by 15% or 0.15:

206970*0.15= $31045.50

Therefor, the CEO made $31,045.50 that month.

What are the mean and the mode of the following set of data: 5, 12, 1, 5, 7
Alika [10]
Mean: so basically you add up all the numbers (5+12+1+5+7=30) and divide the sum (30) with how many numbers there are (5) so 30/5=6

mode: mode is numbers repeated, since there are two 5's it is the mode (you may also have multiple modes)
