Answer:

(a) 7/15

(b) 1/3

Step-by-step explanation:

(a) teaching:

(3 1/2) / (7 1/2) = (7/2) / (15/2) = 7/2 * 2/15 = 7/15

(b) marking:

(2 1/2) / (7 1/2) = (5/2) / (15/2) = 5/2 * 2/15 = 5/15 = 1/3

Determine the sample size needed to construct a 99​% confidence interval to estimate the average GPA for the student population
Volgvan

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

Solve the equation by using quadratic formula . Show your work! Answer maybe in radical or decimal form .
Lorico [155]

Answer:

x_1=\frac{-2+\sqrt{14}}{2}\approx 0.871,x_2=\frac{-2-\sqrt{14}}{2}\approx-2.871

Step-by-step explanation:

2x^2+4x-5=0

x=\frac{-b\pm\sqrt{b^2-4ac}}{2a}

x=\frac{-4\pm\sqrt{4^2-4(2)(-5)}}{2(2)}

x=\frac{-4\pm\sqrt{16+40}}{4}

x=\frac{-4\pm\sqrt{56}}{4}

x=\frac{-4\pm2\sqrt{14}}{4}

x=\frac{-2\pm\sqrt{14}}{2}

x_1=\frac{-2+\sqrt{14}}{2}\approx 0.871,x_2=\frac{-2-\sqrt{14}}{2}\approx-2.871

Find the equation of a circle that has its center at (-4, 3) and has a radius of 5. (x + 4) 2 + (y - 3) 2 = 25
Andreas93 [3]

Answer:

(x+4)^2 + (y-3)^2 = 25

Step-by-step explanation:

You can use the center of a circle to write an equation in vertex form. Vertex form is (x-h)^2+(y-k)^2 = r^2 and the vertex is (h,k). Notice (h,k) are the opposite sign in the equation then as the point.

Here h = -4 and k = 3. Substitute these values and the value r = 5.

(x--4)^2 + (y-3)^2 = 5^2\\(x+4)^2 + (y-3)^2 = 25
