Loosely, "varies inversely" means that as one quantity increases, the other decreases. Specifically, if x and y vary inversely, then y = k/x where k is some constant (a particular number).
Another way to write that relationship is xy = k. To find the value of k for this problem, you need a numbers for x and y that go together.
Suppose x = number of children and y = number of candies (it doesn't matter what order these go in as long as you keep track!).
"When 12 children are present, 140 pieces of candy are consumed." So when x = 12, the value of y = 140.
xy = k
(12)(140) = k
1680 = k
Now, when x = 8 children,
8y = 1680
y = 210
Answer:
A. x + y = 5
Step-by-step explanation:
The slope of the equation is equal for parallel lines,
; Slope = (-1)
;Use the formula
(y - y(coordinate of the given point)) = slope × [(x - x(coordinate of the given point)]
; y - 1 = (-1)(x - 4)
; y - 1 = -x + 4...then move the variable (x) to the left hand side and then move (-1) to the right hand side
; x + y = 4 + 1
; Hence,
; x + y = 5

Answer:
The sample size needed is 2401.
Step-by-step explanation:
In a sample with a number n of people surveyed with a probability of a success of 
, and a confidence level of 
, we have the following confidence interval of proportions.
In which
z is the zscore that has a pvalue of 
.
The margin of error of the interval is:
95% confidence level
So 
, z is the value of Z that has a pvalue of 
, so 
.
Estimate the sample size needed if no estimate of p is available so that the confidence interval will have a margin of error of 0.02.
We have to find n, for which M = 0.02.
There is no estimate of p available, so we use 
The sample size needed is 2401.
