Answer:
d.
Step-by-step explanation:
Since it's an isosceles triangle, WX=WZ= 2n-5
Perimeter = n + (2n-5) + (2n-5)
= 5n - 10
The Perimeter is given to be 20
5n - 10 = 20
5n = 30
n = 6
Answer:
The minimum sample size required to create the specified confidence interval is 2229.
Step-by-step explanation:
We have that to find our
level, that is the subtraction of 1 by the confidence interval divided by 2. So:

Now, we have to find z in the Ztable as such z has a pvalue of
.
So it is z with a pvalue of
, so 
Now, find the margin of error M as such

In which
is the standard deviation of the population and n is the size of the sample.
What is the minimum sample size required to create the specified confidence interval
This is n when 





Rounding up
The minimum sample size required to create the specified confidence interval is 2229.
First remember that sum means to add. now think about the equation. we need to find 3 numbers that equal 159 when added together. And they are all consecutive odd numbers. so let's call the first number X. the second number would be X+2 since we have to jump over 1 even number. The third number would be X+4 since we have to jump over 2 even numbers. so now an equation to represent this would be X+(X+2)+(X+4)=159. Add like terms, and remember order of operations. if you need help getting the answers leave me a comment.
First answer is 4 chances and second answer is 2 chances
