What percent of 40 is 16?

Mathematics
1 answer:
kotegsom [21]3 years ago
5 0

Answer: E. 40

Step-by-step explanation:

<u>Concept: </u>

- When you encounter questions that state "what percent of [a] is [b]"  then it means asking for a fraction of b to a, which is "(b/a)×100%".

- If you are still confused, I would provide some examples

  • What percent of 20 is 5: (5/20)×100% = 25%
  • What percent of 10 is 2: (2/10)×100% = 20%

---------------------------------------------------------------------------

<u>Solve:</u>

(16/40)×100% = 0.4 × 100% = 40%

Hope this helps!! :)

How large a sample should be selected to provide a 95% confidence interval with a margin of error of 6? Assume that the populati
marshall27 [118]

Using the z-distribution, it is found that a sample of 171 should be selected.

<h3>What is a z-distribution confidence interval?</h3>

The confidence interval is:

\overline{x} \pm z\frac{\sigma}{\sqrt{n}}

The margin of error is:

M = z\frac{\sigma}{\sqrt{n}}

In which:

  • \overline{x} is the sample mean.
  • z is the critical value.
  • n is the sample size.
  • \sigma is the standard deviation for the population.

For this problem, the parameters are:

z = 1.96, \sigma = 40, M = 6

Hence we solve for n to find the needed sample size.

M = z\frac{\sigma}{\sqrt{n}}

6 = 1.96\frac{40}{\sqrt{n}}

6\sqrt{n} = 40 \times 1.96

\sqrt{n} = \frac{40 \times 1.96}{6}

(\sqrt{n})^2 = \left(\frac{40 \times 1.96}{6}\right)^2

n = 170.7.

Rounding up, a sample of 171 should be selected.
