Why do you multiply a percent by a number to find the percent of that number?

Because a percent is a fraction of 1/100 of a whole thing. for example a whole is 200 and we want to find the 37% of it, we would divide 200 over 100 (which is the percent of the whole thing) and the multiply it by 37 (that is the percentage of the part of the whole thing) and we get 74.
74=37% of 200

Thoughtfully split the expression at hand into groups, each group having two terms :

Group 1:   (-4w + 3) • (1) = (4w - 3) • (-1)

<span>Bad news !! Factoring by pulling out fails :

Polynomial Roots Calculator is a set of methods aimed at finding values of  w  for which   F(w)=0  

Rational Roots Test is one of the above mentioned tools. It would only find Rational Roots that is numbers  w  which can be expressed as the quotient of two integers

The Rational Root Theorem states that if a polynomial zeroes for a rational number  P/Q   then  P  is a factor of the Trailing Constant and  Q  is a factor of the Leading Coefficient

In this case, the Leading Coefficient is  3  and the Trailing Constant is <span> 3.

Among 320 randomly selected airline travelers, the mean number of hours spent travelling per year is 24 hours and the standard d
Ostrovityanka [42]

The margin of error of the random selection is 0.29

The given parameters are:

n = 320 --- the sample size

\sigma = 2.9 --- the standard deviation

\bar x = 24 --- the mean

\alpha = 90\% --- the confidence level.

The margin of error (E) is calculated as follows:

E = z \times \sqrt{\frac{\sigma^2}{n}}

So, we have:

E = z \times \sqrt{\frac{3.2^2}{320}}

E = z \times \sqrt{\frac{10.24}{320}}

The z-value for 90% confidence level is 1.645.

Substitute 1.645 for z

E = 1.645 \times \sqrt{\frac{10.24}{320}}

E = 1.645 \times \sqrt{0.032}

Take square roots

E = 1.645 \times 0.1789

Multiply

E = 0.2943

Approximate

E = 0.29

Hence, the margin of error is 0.29
