Answer:

Convert each fraction to its percentage form:

= 36 / 40

= 90%

= 1/3

= 33.3%

= 70/100

= 70%

= 1 / 8

= 12.5%

Looking at the percentages:

= 36 / 40 is closest to 1.

= 1/3 <u>and</u> 70/100 are closest to one half which is 50%

= 1/8 is closest to 0.

A doctor at a local hospital is interested in estimating the birth weight of infants. How large a sample must she select if she
Nataly_w [17]

Answer:

The minimum sample size needed is n = (\frac{1.96\sqrt{\sigma}}{4})^2. If n is a decimal number, it is rounded up to the next integer. \sigma is the standard deviation of the population.

Step-by-step explanation:

We have that to find our \alpha level, that is the subtraction of 1 by the confidence interval divided by 2. So:

\alpha = \frac{1 - 0.9}{2} = 0.05

Now, we have to find z in the Z-table as such z has a p-value of 1 - \alpha.

That is z with a pvalue of 1 - 0.05 = 0.95, so Z = 1.645.

Now, find the margin of error M as such

M = z\frac{\sigma}{\sqrt{n}}

In which \sigma is the standard deviation of the population and n is the size of the sample.

How large a sample must she select if she desires to be 90% confident that her estimate is within 4 ounces of the true mean?

A sample of n is needed, and n is found when M = 4. So

M = z\frac{\sigma}{\sqrt{n}}

4 = 1.96\frac{\sigma}{\sqrt{n}}

4\sqrt{n} = 1.96\sqrt{\sigma}

\sqrt{n} = \frac{1.96\sqrt{\sigma}}{4}

(\sqrt{n})^2 = (\frac{1.96\sqrt{\sigma}}{4})^2

n = (\frac{1.96\sqrt{\sigma}}{4})^2

The minimum sample size needed is n = (\frac{1.96\sqrt{\sigma}}{4})^2. If n is a decimal number, it is rounded up to the next integer. \sigma is the standard deviation of the population.

ValentinkaMS [17]
You can subtract the 2x to make it -y=-2x-2 and add the x to make it -2y=x+4. for elimination method multiply the equation (-2)-y=-2x-2. Hope this helps. You can also do substitution method
