Answer:

The estimated product is 52.

Step-by-step explanation:

0.62 is 0.38 away from one and 0.12 away from 0.5. Since it's closer to 0.5, we'll round it to that. 104 doesn't need to be rounded because it's a whole number. So, 1/2 of 104 is 52. The estimated product is 52

Hope this helps! :)

Answer:

A sample of 997 is needed.

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 z-score that has a p-value of $1 - \frac{\alpha}{2}$ .

The margin of error is of:

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

A previous study indicates that the proportion of left-handed golfers is 8%.

This means that $\pi = 0.08$

98% confidence level

So $\alpha = 0.02$ , z is the value of Z that has a p-value of $1 - \frac{0.02}{2} = 0.99$ , so $Z = 2.327$ .

How large a sample is needed in order to be 98% confident that the sample proportion will not differ from the true proportion by more than 2%?

This is n for which M = 0.02. So

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

$0.02 = 2.327\sqrt{\frac{0.08*0.92}{n}}$

$0.02\sqrt{n} = 2.327\sqrt{0.08*0.92}$

$\sqrt{n} = \frac{2.327\sqrt{0.08*0.92}}{0.02}$

$(\sqrt{n})^2 = (\frac{2.327\sqrt{0.08*0.92}}{0.02})^2$

$n = 996.3$

Rounding up:

A sample of 997 is needed.

Graph the solution of y-2>1 on a number line

Angelina_Jolie [31]

First, you need to move 2 to the other side. You accomplish this by adding 2 to 1. You have y>3. Since your variable is smaller than 3, draw an open circle on the 3 mark and a squiggly line left of 3.

Solve for F: C=5/9(F-32)<br> please explain process thanks

timama [110]

$C=\frac{5}{9}(F-32)\ \ \ \ /\cdot\frac{9}{5}\\\\F-32=\frac{9}{5}C\ \ \ \ /+32\\\\F=\frac{9}{5}C+32\\\\F=\frac{9C}{5}+\frac{160}{5}\\\\F=\frac{9C+160}{5}$
