Answer: x = 8
Step-by-step explanation:
This is a very, very, very simple algebra problem. I assume you know the basics of algebra.
First, move 8 to the other side:
3x = 24
divide by 3 on both sides
x = 8
There! Would it kill you to give me a quartic question to spice my life up?
Let the two numbers be represented by x and y. The problem statement gives rise to two sets of equations.
x - y = 0.6
y/x = 0.6 . . . . . . . assuming x is the larger of the two numbers
or
x/y = 0.6 . . . . . . . assuming y has the larger magnitude
The solution of the first pair of equations is
(x, y) = (1.5, 0.9)
The solution of the first and last equations is
(x, y) = (-0.9, -1.5)
The pairs of numbers could be {0.9, 1.5} or {-1.5, -0.9}.
Answer:
We are 95% confident that the proportion of American voters who favor congressional term limits is 64 percent with a difference of 3% for small sample size.
Step-by-step explanation:
95 % confidence means that we are 95 % confident that the the proportion of American voters who favor congressional term limits is 64 percent.
95 % confidence means that of all the sample about 95 % values are within in the given range.
And only 5% sample are not included in the given parameter.
Margin of error is the amount of miscalculation or difference in change of circumstances from the obtained data.
3% margin of error usually occurs when the data size is small.
As the data size increases the margin of error decreases.
So this statement tells us that we are 95% confident that the proportion of American voters who favor congressional term limits is 64 percent with a difference of 3% for small sample size.
Margin of error= z *σ/√n→
This indicates that as the sample size decreases the margin of error increases and vice versa.
