Answer:

-23

Step-by-step explanation:

Since 2 negatives are next to each other, you have to make it into addition.

-39+16

Now we have to subtract 39 and 16. Why? because we have we are adding 16. If you draw a number line, start from -39, and move 16 sports ahead.

39-16= 23

Now, We aren't ahead of the 0, we are still in the negative zone. Your answer is -23.

Not sure if you can make number lines on here, but I tried.

Which is a solution of the inequality 5≤−4x−65≤−4x−6?
lara [203]
Step 1: Add 65 to all sides

Step 2: Add 4x to all sides

Step 3: subtract 70 to all sides

Step 4: divide by 4 to all sides

Ending: x is greater than or equal to -17.5

You will end up with it saying -17.5 is greater than or equal to -2.75 but since -17.5 is not greater than -2.75 the answer to this problem is ...

No solution because the inequality that you end up with won't make sense and therefore does not work in the problem

Answer: NO SOLUTION (yayayyayay).

You borrow $1900 to buy a refrigerator. The simple interest rate is 11%. You pay off the loan after 5 years. How much do you pay
leonid [27]
I = PRT is the formula to use for this.

I = (1900)(.11)(5)
I = 1045

1900 + 1045 = 2945

I need to pay $2945 for the refrigerator.

Answer:

a) n=\frac{0.5(1-0.5)}{(\frac{0.02}{1.96})^2}=2401  

And rounded up we have that n=2401

b) n=\frac{0.07(1-0.07)}{(\frac{0.02}{1.96})^2}=625.22  

And rounded up we have that n=626

And we see that if we have previous info about p the sample size varies a lot.

Step-by-step explanation:

Previous concepts

A confidence interval is "a range of values that’s likely to include a population value with a certain degree of confidence. It is often expressed a % whereby a population means lies between an upper and lower interval".  

The margin of error is the range of values below and above the sample statistic in a confidence interval.  

Normal distribution, is a "probability distribution that is symmetric about the mean, showing that data near the mean are more frequent in occurrence than data far from the mean".  

Solution to the problem

In order to find the critical value we need to take in count that we are finding the interval for a proportion, so on this case we need to use the z distribution. Since our interval is at 95% of confidence, our significance level would be given by \alpha=1-0.95=0.05 and \alpha/2 =0.025. And the critical value would be given by:

z_{\alpha/2}=-1.96, z_{1-\alpha/2}=1.96

Part a

The margin of error for the proportion interval is given by this formula:  

ME=z_{\alpha/2}\sqrt{\frac{\hat p (1-\hat p)}{n}}    (a)  

And on this case we have that ME =\pm 0.02 and we are interested in order to find the value of n, if we solve n from equation (a) we got:  

n=\frac{\hat p (1-\hat p)}{(\frac{ME}{z})^2}   (b)  

Since we don't have prior information about the population proportion we can use ase estimator \hat p =0.5. And replacing into equation (b) the values from part a we got:

n=\frac{0.5(1-0.5)}{(\frac{0.02}{1.96})^2}=2401  

And rounded up we have that n=2401

Part b

For thi case the estimator for p is \hat p =0.07

n=\frac{0.07(1-0.07)}{(\frac{0.02}{1.96})^2}=625.22  

And rounded up we have that n=626

And we see that if we have previous info about p the sample size varies a lot.
