Is the line x = 6-7t, y = 1+2t, z= -7t parallel to the plane 2x+y+z?

In the formula of the distance between a point and a plane (not any plane but a plane parallel to the original one, equation [1] ), keeping D=2, and d as d itself, we get:

D=|ax1+by1+cz1+d|√a2+b2+c2
2=∣∣1⋅0+2⋅0+(−2)⋅(−12)+d∣∣√1+4+4
|d+1|=2⋅3 => |d+1|=6First solution:
d+1=6 => d=5
→x+2y−2z+5=0Second solution:
d+1=−6 => d=−7
→x+2y−2z−7=0

Answer:

a) $n=\frac{0.76(1-0.76)}{(\frac{0.01}{1.64})^2}=4905.83$

And rounded up we have that n=4906

b) For this case since we don't have prior info we need to use as estimatro for the proportion $\hat p =0.5$

$n=\frac{0.5(1-0.5)}{(\frac{0.01}{1.64})^2}=6724$

And rounded up we have that n=6724

Step-by-step explanation:

We need to remember that the confidence interval for the true proportion is given by :

$\hat p \pm z_{\alpha/2}\sqrt{\frac{\hat p (1-\hat p)}{n}}$

Part a

The estimated proportion for this case is $\hat p =0.76$

Our interval is at 90% of confidence, and the significance level is given by $\alpha=1-0.90=0.1$ and $\alpha/2 =0.05$ . The critical values for this case are:
