Answer:

x = 4

Step-by-step explanation:

let the number be x

Then lets break down the statement step by step:

"5 times a number" ----> 5x

"2 more than 5 times a number" ---> 5x + 2

"2 more than 5 times a number is 22" ---> 5x + 2 = 22

simply solve for x :

5x + 2 = 22   (subtract 2 from both sides)

5x = 22 - 2

5x = 20   (divide both sides by 5)

x = 20/5 = 4

An environmental science teacher at a high school with a large population of students wanted to estimate the proportion of stude
AnnZ [28]

Answer:

60 students

Step-by-step explanation:

The confidence interval of a proportion is given by:

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

Where 'p' is the proportion of students who responded 'yes', 'z' is the z-score for a 95% confidence interval (which is known to be 1.960), and 'n' is the number of students in the sample.

If the confidence interval is from 0.584 to 0.816, then:

p=\frac{0.584+0.816}{2}=0.7 \\0.816-0.584=2*(1.96*\sqrt{\frac{p*(1-p)}{n}}) \\0.116=1.96*\sqrt{\frac{0.7*(1-0.7)}{n}}\\n=16.8966^2*(0.7*0.3)\\n=60\ students

60 students were in the sample.
