Eva has £6.05 in her moneybox.

PIT_PIT [208]

Answer:

11 of 20p, 22 of 10p and 33 of 5p

Step-by-step explanation:

Eva has 20p, 10p and 5p coins, total of £6.05 = 605p

Let 20p=x, 10p=y, 5p=z

Then:

20x + 10y + 5z = 605
y : x = 2 : 1 ⇒ x= y/2
y : z = 2 : 3 ⇒ z= 3y/2

Rewriting the first equation considering next two:

10y + 10y + 7.5y = 605
27.5y = 605
y= 605/27.5
y= 22
x= y/2 = 22/2 = 11
z = 3y/2 = 3*11 = 33

Answer: 11 of 20p coins, 22 of 10p coins and 33 of 5p coins

How do i find a formula for "1+3+5+7+......+(2n-1)

nata0808 [166]

Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:

common difference d=3-1=2

first term a=1

an=a+(n-1)d

2n-1=1+(l-1)2

2n-1=1+2l-2

2n-1=2l-1

l=n

(i used l for number of terms)

number of terms=n

$S_{n}=\frac{n}{2} (first ~term+last~term)\\=\frac{n}{2} (1+2n-1)\\=n^2$

Exercise 6.13 presents the results of a poll evaluating support for the health care public option in 2009, reporting that 52% of

sleet_krkn [62]

Answer:

A sample size of 6755 or higher would be appropriate.

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 M is given by:

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

90% confidence level

So $\alpha = 0.1$ , z is the value of Z that has a pvalue of $1 - \frac{0.1}{2} = 0.95$ , so $Z = 1.645$ .

52% of Independents in the sample opposed the public option.

This means that $p = 0.52$

If we wanted to estimate this number to within 1% with 90% confidence, what would be an appropriate sample size?

Sample size of size n or higher when $M = 0.01$ . So

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

$0.01 = 1.645\sqrt{\frac{0.52*0.48}{n}}$

$0.01\sqrt{n} = 0.8218$

$\sqrt{n} = \frac{0.8218}{0.01}$

$\sqrt{n} = 82.18$

$\sqrt{n}^{2} = (82.18)^{2}$

$n = 6754.2$

A sample size of 6755 or higher would be appropriate.
