<u>Equation/Question:</u>

Solve for b. 3(b + -2)-8=-5 what is the answer?​

<u>Answer/Steps to answer:</u>

1.Simplify  b+-2 to b−2.

3(b−2)−8=−5

2. Add 8 to both sides.

3(b-2)=-5+8

3. Simplify  -5+8  to  3.

3(b-2)=3

4. Divide both sides by 3.

b-2=1

5. Add 2 to both sides.

b=1+2

6. Simplify  1+2 to 3.

b=3

What is the equation of the line
nevsk [136]

Answer:

y = 2x - 3

Step-by-step explanation:

The y-intercept is -3 because that is where the line hits the y-axis.

A programmer plans to develop a new software system. In planning for the operating system that he will​ use, he needs to estimat
Vedmedyk [2.9K]

Using the z-distribution, we have that:

a) A sample of 601 is needed.

b) A sample of 93 is needed.

c) A.  ​Yes, using the additional survey information from part​ (b) dramatically reduces the sample size.

In a sample with a number n of people surveyed with a probability of a success of \pi, and a confidence level of \alpha, we have the following confidence interval of proportions.

\pi \pm z\sqrt{\frac{\pi(1-\pi)}{n}}

In which z is the z-score that has a p-value of \frac{1+\alpha}{2}.

The margin of error is:

M = z\sqrt{\frac{\pi(1-\pi)}{n}}

95% confidence level, hence\alpha = 0.95, z is the value of Z that has a p-value of \frac{1+0.95}{2} = 0.975, so z = 1.96.

For this problem, we consider that we want it to be within 4%.

Item a:

  • The sample size is <u>n for which M = 0.04.</u>
  • There is no estimate, hence \pi = 0.5

M = z\sqrt{\frac{\pi(1-\pi)}{n}}

0.04 = 1.96\sqrt{\frac{0.5(0.5)}{n}}

0.04\sqrt{n} = 1.96\sqrt{0.5(0.5)}

\sqrt{n} = \frac{1.96\sqrt{0.5(0.5)}}{0.04}

(\sqrt{n})^2 = \left(\frac{1.96\sqrt{0.5(0.5)}}{0.04}\right)^2

n = 600.25

Rounding up:

A sample of 601 is needed.

Item b:

The estimate is \pi = 0.96, hence:

M = z\sqrt{\frac{\pi(1-\pi)}{n}}

0.04 = 1.96\sqrt{\frac{0.96(0.04)}{n}}

0.04\sqrt{n} = 1.96\sqrt{0.96(0.04)}

\sqrt{n} = \frac{1.96\sqrt{0.96(0.04)}}{0.04}

(\sqrt{n})^2 = \left(\frac{1.96\sqrt{0.96(0.04)}}{0.04}\right)^2

n = 92.2

Rounding up:

A sample of 93 is needed.

Item c:

The closer the estimate is to \pi = 0.5, the larger the sample size needed, hence, the correct option is A.
