Answer: the smallest number of people required for the sample to meet the conditions for performing inference is 100

Step-by-step explanation:

Given that;

36% of US population has never been married

32% are divorced

27% are married

5% are widowed

Taking a simple random sample of individuals to test this claim;

we need expected count in each cell to be at least 5, here the smallest proportion is 5% = 0.05

so we only need to satisfy condition for its expected count;

n × 0.05 ≥ 5

n = 5 / 0.05 = 100

Therefore the smallest number of people required for the sample to meet the conditions for performing inference is 100

Given that,

A car uses a litre of petrol to travel 4 km.

To find,

How many litres will it use to travel 32 kilometres.

Rounded to the nearest hundredth, what is the positive solution to the quadratic equation 0 = 2x2 + 3x – 8?
zmey [24]
2x² + 3x -8 = 0

a = 2 , b = 3 , c = -8
So..
D = b²-4ac = 9 + 64 = 73

for bigger solution , use x = -b + √D / 2a
For smaller solution, use x = -b - √D / 2a

So
= -3 + √73 / 2. 2
= 1/4 (√73 -3)

Hopefully helpfull.. ^_^
