Answer:

Consider the equation 3x + 2y = 12

Now, square both sides:

(3x + 2y)^2 = 122

=> 9x^2 + 12xy + 4y^2 = 144

=>9x^2 + 4y^2 = 144 – 12xy

From the questions, xy = 6

So,

9x^2 + 4y^2 = 144 – 72

Thus, the value of 9x^2 + 4y^2 = 72

An item was sold at a loss of 20%. Had it been sold for Rs 3000more then the profit would have been 10%. What is the cost price

vagabundo [1.1K]

Answer:

Cost Price = Rs 10000

Step-by-step explanation:

Assume:

Cost of the item = x

Item was sold at a loss of 20%:

Loss = 20% of x = 0.2x

Item sold = x - 0.2x = 0.8x

Item sold at a profit of 10%:

Profit = 10% of x = 0.1x

item sold = x + 0.1x = 1.1x

Solve:

Difference = 1.1x - 0.8x = 0.3x

0.3x = Rs 3000

x = Rs 3000 ÷ 0.3

x = Rs 10000

Using the traditional formula, a 95% CI for p1 − p2 is to be constructed based on equal sample sizes from the two populations. F

inn [45]

Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:

Given:

Width = 0.4

Let's take the z value of 95% which is = 1.96

Let's assume population proportion p1 and p2 = 0.5

For margin of error E, the relation between the width and margin of error is 2E.

i.e 2E = 0.4

E = 0.2

To find the sample size, n, let's use the formula :

$n= \frac{z^2*(p_1(1-p_1) + p_2(1-p_2))}{E^2}$

$= \frac{1.96^2(0.5(1-0.5)+0.5(1-0.5))}{0.2^2}$

= 48.02

≈ 49
