You want to obtain a sample to estimate a population proportion. At this point in time, you have no reasonable preliminary estim

Using the z-distribution, it is found that a sample size of 3,385 is required.

<h3>What is a confidence interval of proportions?</h3>

A confidence interval of proportions is given by:

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

The margin of error is:

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

In which:

$\pi$ is the sample proportion.

z is the critical value.

n is the sample size.

In this problem, we have a 98% confidence level, hence $\alpha = 0.98$ , z is the value of Z that has a p-value of $\frac{1+0.98}{2} = 0.99$ , so the critical value is z = 2.327.

We have no prior estimate, hence $\pi = 0.5$ is used, which is when the largest sample size is needed. To find the sample size, we solve the margin of error expression for n when M = 0.02, hence:

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

$0.02 = 2.327\sqrt{\frac{0.5(0.5)}{n}}$

$0.02\sqrt{n} = 2.327 \times 0.5$

$\sqrt{n} = \left(\frac{2.327 \times 0.5}{0.02}\right)$

$(\sqrt{n})^2 = \left(\frac{2.327 \times 0.5}{0.02}\right)^2$

n = 3,385.

A sample size of 3,385 is required.

Which function has a greater y-intercept?

7nadin3 [17]

Answer:

Function 2 has a greater y intercept

Step-by-step explanation:

Function 1 has a y intercept of -6.5

This is where the value of the input is zero

Function 2 has a y intercept of -6

This is where it crosses the y axis and the input is zero

Function 2 has a greater y intercept is -6>-6.5

At the market, Ms. Winn bought 3/4 lb of grapes and 5/8 lb of cherries.

wolverine [178]

Answer:

Part a) Ms. Winn bought 12 oz of grapes

Part b) Ms. Winn bought 10 oz of cherries

Part c) Ms. Winn bought 2 oz more of grapes than cherries

Part d) Mr. Phillips bought 6 more ounces of fruit than Ms. Winn

Step-by-step explanation:

Part a) How many ounces of grapes did Ms. Winn buy?

Remember that

$1\ lb=16\ oz$

To convert lb to oz multiply by 16

we know that

Ms. Winn bought 3/4 lb of grapes

Convert lb to oz

Multiply by 16

$\frac{3}{4}\ lb= \frac{3}{4}(16)=12\ oz$

therefore

Ms. Winn bought 12 oz of grapes

Part b) How many ounces of cherries did Ms. Winn buy?

Remember that

$1\ lb=16\ oz$

To convert lb to oz multiply by 16

we know that

Ms. Winn bought 5/8 lb of cherries

Convert lb to oz

Multiply by 16

$\frac{5}{8}\ lb= \frac{5}{8}(16)=10\ oz$

therefore

Ms. Winn bought 10 oz of cherries

Part c) How many more ounces of grapes than cherries did Ms. Winn buy?

Subtract the ounces of cherries from the ounces of grapes

$12\ oz-10\ oz=2\ oz$

therefore

Ms. Winn bought 2 oz more of grapes than cherries

Part d) If Mr. Phillips bought 1 3/4 pounds of raspberries, who bought more fruit, Ms. Winn or Mr. Phillips? How many ounces more?

Remember that

$1\ lb=16\ oz$

To convert lb to oz multiply by 16

we know that

Mr. Phillips bought 1 3/4 pounds of raspberries

Convert mixed number to an improper fraction

$1\frac{3}{4}\ lb=\frac{1*4+3}{4}=\frac{7}{4}\ lb$

Convert lb to oz

Multiply by 16

$\frac{7}{4}\ lb= \frac{7}{4}(16)=28\ oz$

Remember that

Ms. Winn bought 12 oz of grapes and 10 oz of cherries

In total Ms. Winn bought

12 oz+10 oz=22 oz -----> total ounces of fruit

Mr. Phillips bought 28 oz of fruit

Ms. Winn bought 22 oz of fruit

$28\ oz > 22\ oz$

Find the difference

$(28\ oz-22\ oz)=6\ oz$

therefore

Mr. Phillips bought 6 more ounces of fruit than Ms. Winn
