Answer: n = 14
Step-by-step explanation: margin of error = critical value × σ/√n
Where σ = population standard deviation = 1
n = sample size = ?
We are to construct a 99% confidence interval, hence the level of significance is 1%.
The critical value for 2 tailed test at 1% level of significance is gotten from a standard normal distribution table which is 2.58
Margin of error = 0.7
0.7 = 2.58×1/√n
0.7 = 2.58/√n
By cross multipying
0.7×√n = 2.58
By squaring both sides
0.7^2 × n = 2.58^2
0.49 × n = 6.6564
n = 6.6564/0.49
n = 14
B is the answer I think but so t take my word for it
They are not equivalent, try adding in numerical values for x, both do not come out the same.
Hello from MrBillDoesMath!
Answer:
Choice A, 18x - 6y = 20
Discussion:
Given line
-9x + 3y = 12 (M)
Choice A:
18x - 6y = 20 => divide both sides by -2
-9x + 3y = -10 (N)
The left hand sides of (M) and (N) are equal implying that right hand sides are equal which further implies 12 = -10. Contradiction! so the system M and N has no solution.
Thank you,
MrB
