Answer:

n = 195

Step-by-step explanation:

What sample size is necessary such that a 98% confidence interval for the mean, using σ = 3, has a width of pm±0.5?

We solve using Margin of error formula

= z × Standard deviation/√n

Margin of error = ± 0.5

Standard deviation = 3

n = ??

z = 2.326

Hence,

±0.5 = 2.326 × 3/√n

Cross Multiply

±0.5 × √n = 6.978

√n = 6.978/±0.5

√n = ±13.956

Square both sides

n = (±13.956)²

n = 194.769936

Approximately = 195 samples

Write an equation for (4,6) and (-4,0)
atroni [7]
Not an equation for those 2 points, but rather "the equation of the line thru (4,6) and (-4,0).

                       6 - 0
Slope?  m = ----------- = 6/8  = 3/4
                       4 -(-4)

Equation?  Start with y = mx + b.  Then 6 = (3/4)(4) + b, or 6 = 3 + b.  b = 3.

The desired equation is y = (3/4)x + 3.

÷ 2
g = 18
18 + 9 = 27
Girls: 18
Boys: 27
