Answer:

x = 11.7

Step-by-step explanation:

sin of an angle is opposite/hypotenuse

sin 38 = x/19

x = 19 sin 38

x = 11.7

You need to memorize the definitions of all the trig functions and then this type of problem will be easy for you.

a) A battalion of soldiers wanted to have a parade forming a square design with 1,536 soldiers. Is it possible ? If not how many

Dmitrij [34]

A square with 1,536 soldiers are not possible, i.e. the square root of 1,536 is about 39.191, which means that 1,536 is not a square a number. In order for it to be a square number, we have to round up 39.191 (because it says "how many more soldiers") to 40 and 40×40=1,600 and 1,600-1,536, so we need 64 more soldiers.

The greatest 4 digit number is simple. If the square root of 10,000 is 100, than, one can assume that because 100-1=99, the resulting answer of 99×99 is less than 10,000, meaning that is is 4 digits. 99×99=9,801.

The state education commission wants to estimate the fraction of tenth grade students that have reading skills at or below the e

irakobra [83]

Answer:

We need a sample size of at least 383.

Step-by-step explanation:

In a sample with a number n of people surveyed with a probability of a success of $\pi$ , and a confidence level of $1-\alpha$ , we have the following confidence interval of proportions.

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

In which

z is the zscore that has a pvalue of $1 - \frac{\alpha}{2}$ .

The margin of error is:

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

85% confidence level

So $\alpha = 0.15$ , z is the value of Z that has a pvalue of $1 - \frac{0.15}{2} = 0.925$ , so $Z = 1.44$ .

How large a sample would be required in order to estimate the fraction of tenth graders reading at or below the eighth grade level at the 85% confidence level with an error of at most 0.03

We need a sample size of at least n.

n is found with $M = 0.03, \pi = 0.21$
