You are interested in estimating the the mean age of the citizens living in your community. In order to do this, you plan on con

structing a confidence interval; however, you are not sure how many citizens should be included in the sample. If you want your sample estimate to be within 5 years of the actual mean with a confidence level of 94%, how many citizens should be included in your sample? Assume that the standard deviation of the ages of all the citizens in this community is 22 years.

Answer:

The sample size is    n = 68

Step-by-step explanation:

From the question we are told that

    The margin of error is  E = 5 \ years

     The standard deviation is  \sigma = 22

From the question we are told the confidence level is  94% , hence the level of significance is    

      \alpha = (100 - 94 ) \%

=>   \alpha = 0.06

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

   Z_{\frac{\alpha }{2} } =  1.881

Generally the sample size is mathematically represented as  

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

=>  n = [\frac{1.881 } *  22 }{5} ] ^2

=>  n = 68

there are 27 small cubes arranged in a 3 by 3 by 3 cube. The top and sides of the cube are painted red. How many of the 27 small
mars1129 [50]

1 Face has 0 face painted

Step-by-step explanation:

As per the question a  painted cube that is cut into 27 equal-size smaller cubes has been cut into a 3 * 3 * 3 arrangement.

 

There is 1 cube in the very center

 On each of the 6 sides of the cube, there is a central smaller cube that is painted once.

 

Of the 27 (3*3*3) smaller cubes formed by the cutting, 1 gets no paint, 6 are painted on 1 face, 12 are painted on 2 faces, and 8 are painted on 3 faces (total 27 cubes).

1 (no paint) + 6 (painted 1) + 12 (painted 2) + 8 (painted 3) = 27 total

The sum of the painted faces (of the small cubes) is 54 (which is 6*9).

neonofarm [45]
I believe the formula to find the height would be h= 2a/b and if you use that formula and plug in the area (21.7) of each triangle as well as the base (6) then you would get a height of 7.2 cm. I hope this is correct! :)
