Annual starting salaries for college graduates with degrees in business administration are generally expected to be between $10,

000 and $50,000. Assume that a 95% confidence interval estimate of the population mean annual starting salary is desired. Determine the planning value for the population standard deviation.
1. Determine how large a sample should be taken if the desired margin of error is:
a. $500
b. $200
c. $100

2. Would you recommend trying to obtain the $100 margin of error? Explain

Answer:

1) the planning value for the population standard deviation is 10,000

2)

a) Margin of error E = 500, n = 1536.64 ≈ 1537

b) Margin of error E = 200, n = 9604

c) Margin of error E = 100, n = 38416

3)

As we can see, sample size corresponding to margin of error of $100 is too large and may not be feasible.

Hence, I will not recommend trying to obtain the $100 margin of error in the present case.

Step-by-step explanation:

Given the data in the question;

1) Planning Value for the population standard deviation will be;

⇒ ( 50,000 - 10,000 ) / 4

= 40,000 / 4

σ = 10,000

Hence, the planning value for the population standard deviation is 10,000

2) how large a sample should be taken if the desired margin of error is;

we know that, n = [ (z_{\alpha /2 × σ ) / E ]²

given that confidence level = 95%, so z_{\alpha /2  = 1.96

Now,

a) Margin of error E = 500

n = [ (z_{\alpha /2 × σ ) / E ]²

n = [ ( 1.96 × 10000 ) / 500 ]²

n = [ 19600 / 500 ]²

n = 1536.64 ≈ 1537

b) Margin of error E = 200

n = [ (z_{\alpha /2 × σ ) / E ]²

n = [ ( 1.96 × 10000 ) / 200 ]²

n = [ 19600 / 200 ]²

n = 9604

c)  Margin of error E = 100

n = [ (z_{\alpha /2 × σ ) / E ]²

n = [ ( 1.96 × 10000 ) / 100 ]²

n = [ 19600 / 100 ]²

n = 38416

3) Would you recommend trying to obtain the $100 margin of error?

As we can see, sample size corresponding to margin of error of $100 is too large and may not be feasible.

Hence, I will not recommend trying to obtain the $100 margin of error in the present case.

Rate of change on a graph.- I'll give brainly for the answer, thank you
Norma-Jean [14]

Answer:

The slope of graph is \mathbf{\frac{3}{2}}

Option C is correct option.

Step-by-step explanation:

We need to find the slope (rate of change) of the graph

The formula to calculate slope is: Slope=\frac{y_2-y_1}{x_2-x_1}

Taking two points from the graph: (You can take any two points from the graph)

Point 1 (-4,-3)

Point 2 (-2,0)

We have: x_1=-4, y_1=-3, x_2=-2, y_2=0

Putting values in the formula and finding slope

Slope=\frac{y_2-y_1}{x_2-x_1}\\Slope=\frac{0-(-3)}{-2-(-4)} \\Slope=\frac{0+3}{-2+4} \\Slope=\frac{3}{2}

So, the slope of graph is \mathbf{\frac{3}{2}}

Option C is correct option.

Count the squares in between each letter.

Point Q is 6 units from Point R

Point R is 7 units from Point T

Point T is 3 units from Point S

For the area, it is easiest to take the area of each of those shapes and then add them.

(3*7/2) + (6*7)

10.5 + 42 = 52.5 Square Units
