A university council wants to determine the need for a new staff room. The council conducted a survey of the staff by randomly s

peaking to 860 staff members out of 2,844 staff members. The council found that 70% of those surveyed were in favor of building a new staff room. Assuming a 90% confidence level, which statement holds true?
As the sample size is appropriately large, the margin of error is 0.036.


As the sample size is appropriately large, the margin of error is 0.026.


As the sample size is too small, the margin of error is 0.026.


As the sample size is too small, the margin of error cannot be trusted.

To find a margin of error for a sample proportion, these assumptions must be met, where n is the sample size and is the sample proportion.




First rewrite the proportion of positive responses as a decimal number.




Now substitute the sample proportion and the sample size, 860, into the formulas for the assumptions to determine whether they are met.




Both values are greater than 10, so the assumptions are met, and the margin of error can be calculated.


Find the margin of error using this formula, where z is the critical value.




For a 90% confidence level, . Substitute the values of z, n, and into the formula for margin of error and evaluate.

A wood stove burns 4 same-sized logs in 2 hours. How many logs does the stove burn in 8 hours?
Liono4ka [1.6K]
(4logs/2hours) = (x logs/8 hours)

(4/2) = x/8)

Cross multiplication gets you:

(4)(8) = (2)x
32 = 2x
x = 16

Answer:

Basically the first image goes in the first box because opposites attract and the second image is what happens when you let the magnets go. The third image would go into the second chart because same-sides repel each other and the fourth picture shows what happens if you let the magnets that have the same sides facing each other go.

Select the correct answer.
MatroZZZ [7]

Answer:

B. Funds need to be easily accessible.

Step-by-step explanation:

We need to understand what is "rainy day", it is an idiom we use to describe a unexpected difficult situation that may happen, that is why we need to "save for a rainy day"

It important for a rainy-day fund to be highly liquid,  it is an financial concept, the degree to which an asset can be bought or sold in the market without significantly affecting its market price such as cash, gold, CD... Which means the asset must be easy to access.

So in a rainy day, we need to response as soon as possible to handle the difficulty.

Hope it will find you well.

Item 18 you and your friend are selling tickets to a charity event. you sell 7 adult tickets and 16 student tickets for $120. yo
quester [9]

Answer:

  $4

Step-by-step explanation:

The two purchases can be written in terms of the cost of an adult ticket (a) and the cost of a student ticket (s):

  7a +16s = 120 . . . . . . . . price for the first purchase

  13a +9s = 140 . . . . . . . . price for the second purchase

Using Cramer's rule, the value of s can be found as ...

  s = (120·13 -140·7)/(16·13 -9·7) = 580/145 = 4

The cost of a student ticket is $4.

_____

<em>Comment on Cramer's Rule</em>

Cramer's rule is particularly useful for systems that don't have "nice" numbers that would make substitution or elimination easy methods to use. If you locate the numbers in the equation, you can see the X-patterns that are used to compute the numerator and denominator differences.

The value of a is (16·140 -9·120)/(same denominator) = 1160/145 = 8. I wanted to show you these numbers so you could see the numerator X-pattern for the first variable.

__

Of course, graphical methods can be quick and easy, too.
