Minnesota Public Radio wants to duplicate a survey conducted in 2016 that found that 65% of adults living in Minnesota felt that

the country was going in the wrong direction. How many people would need to be surveyed for a 90% confidence interval to ensure the margin of error would be less than 3%? (You must show the formula and your algebraic work to receive credit for this problem.)

Answer:

The number of people needed  is n =684  

Step-by-step explanation:

From the question we are told that

  The population proportion is  p = 0.65

   The margin of error is  E = 0.03

From the question we are told the confidence level is  90% , hence the level of significance is    

      \alpha = (100 - 90 ) \%

=>   \alpha = 0.10

Generally from the normal distribution table the critical value  of  \frac{\alpha }{2} is  

   Z_{\frac{\alpha }{2} } =  1.645

Generally the sample size is mathematically represented as

       n =[ \frac{Z_{\frac{\alpha }{2} }}{E} ]^2 * p(1-p)

=>    n =[ \frac{1.645 }{0.03} ]^2 * 0.65(1-0.65)

=>    n =684

Shaan walks 2.5 meters per second. His brother Dhvan walks 1 meter
MissTica

Answer:

The race must be up to 29 meters for Dhvan to win.

Step-by-step explanation:

Since Shaan walks 2.5 meters per second, while his brother Dhvan walks 1 meter per second, and Dhvan wants to have a race, and Shaan knows that he walks faster, but he wants to give his brother a head start of 45 meters, so it doesn't seem that he is allowing him to win, to determine how many meters long should the race be in order for Dhvan to win the following calculation must be performed:

45 / (2.5 - 1) = X

45 / 1.5 = X

30 = X

Therefore, the race must be up to 29 meters for Dhvan to win.

You find the following financial information about a company: net working capital = $735; fixed assets = $5,385; total assets =
ddd [48]

Answer:

Company's total liabilities are $6,351.

Step-by-step explanation:

A company's financial information is given, we have to calculate the company's total liabilities.

Total assets = Fixed assets + current assets

Current assets = Total assets - Fixed assets

                         = $8,190 - $5,385

                         = $2,805

Networking capital = Current assets - Current liabilities

                        $735 = $2,805 - current liabilities

  Current liabilities   = $2,805 - $735

  Current liabilities   = $2,070

Total liabilities = Long term debt + current liabilities

                         = $4,281 + $2,070

                         = $6,351

Company's total liabilities are $6,351.

Help please <br><br>number 4, 5, 6, and 7​
FinnZ [79.3K]

Step-by-step explanation:

4. So, total time traveled is calculated by adding travel times in both directions.

From Detroit to Chicago, Charlie flew 300 miles at 150 miles per hour speed. That means that he traveled:

t1 = s / v1

t1 = 300 miles / 150 miles per hour

t1 = 2 hours

Now, let's do the same for the opposite direction. Since it's the same distance, he again flew 300 miles, but the speed this time was 100 miles per hour:

t2 = s / v2

t2 = 300 miles / 100 miles per hour

t2 = 3 hours

So, total time he traveled was t1 + t2 = 2 hours + 3 hours = 5 hours.

For the trip distance we need to add distances in both directions. We already said that the distance is the same, so the total trip distance is 300 miles + 300 miles = 600 miles.

Displacement shows how far are the ending and the starting point. Since Charlie started from Detroit, flew to Chicago, and then came back to Detroit, his ending point is the same as the starting, so the displacement is 0.

We can calculate average speed by dividing total distance with the total travel time. We already found that the total trip distance was 600 miles, and the total travel time was 5 hours. That means that:

v(average) = s(total) / t (total)

v(average) = 600 miles / 5 hours

v (average) = 120 miles per hour

As for the average velocity, we calculate it by dividing displacement by total travel time. Since the displacement was 0, average velocity will also be 0.

5. From the left graph we see that the object went from 0 to 2 meters (it moved 2 meters) in 1 second. That means that its speed was:

v1 = s1 / t1

v1 = 2 meters / 1 second

v1 = 2m/s

From there, it went from 2 to 4 meters (it moved 2 meters) in the next 4 seconds. That means that its speed, during that interval, was:

v2 = s2 / t2

v2 = 2 meters / 4 seconds

v2 = 0.5 m/s

So, our graph will show, for the first second, velocity of 2m/s, and for the next four seconds, the velocity of 0.5 m/s.

6. Again, when calculating speed, we use the equation:

v = s / t

In this case, the distance (s) is 325 miles and the time (t) is 5 hours. So, the speed will be:

v = 325 miles / 5 hours

v = 65 mph

7. Now, we have the same distance (s) of 325 miles ant the speed (v) of 70 mph. We want know how long will the drive take:

t = s / v

t = 325 miles / 70 mph

t = 4.64 hours.
