The Bureau of Alcohol, Tobacco, and Firearms (BATF) has been concerned about lead levels in California wines. In a previous test

ing of wine specimens, lead levels ranging from 51 to 710 parts per billion were recorded. How many wine specimens should be tested if the BATF wishes to estimate the true mean lead level for California wines to within 10 parts per billion with 95% confidence

Answer:

The sample size is  n = 1043

Step-by-step explanation:

From the question we are told that

  The lower bound of the range is a = 51

  The upper bound of the range is b =  710

    The margin of error is E = 10

Generally the standard deviation is mathematically represented as

       \sigma =  \frac{b- a}{4}

=>    \sigma =  \frac{710 - 51 }{4}

=>    \sigma = 164.75

From the question we are told the confidence level is  95% , hence the level of significance is    

      \alpha = (100 - 95 ) \%

=>   \alpha = 0.05

Generally from the normal distribution table the critical value  of  \frac{\alpha }{2} is  

   Z_{\frac{\alpha }{2} } =  1.96

Generally the sample size is mathematically represented as  

    n = [\frac{Z_{\frac{\alpha }{2} } *  \sigma }{E} ] ^2

=> n = [ 1.96  *  164.75 }{10} ] ^2

=> n = 1043

Sort each equation according to whether it has one solution, infinitely many solutions, or no solution.
Aliun [14]
《ANSWER》

《LINEAR EQUATIONS》

Solving all we get as

↪1) 5 (x -2) = 5x - 7

since after solving X is cancelled , NO SOLUTION

↪2) -3 (x - 4) = -3x + 12

SINCE after solving X is any value , infinitely many solutions

↪3) 4 (x + 1) = 3x + 4

solving we get as , 4x+ 4 = 3x + 4 =》 X =0

only one solution

↪4) -2 (x-3) = 2x - 6

Only one solution

↪5) 6 (x + 5) = 6x + 11

NO SOLUTION

All the equations are solved by the distributive law of algebra
