Answer:
106
Step-by-step explanation:
Given that:
Mean (m) = 13.5 pounds
Error margin = 0.025
α = 99%
Variation interval = range = 13.3 to 13.7
Standard deviation (σ) estimate from range :
Range / 4
(13.7 - 13.3) /4
= 0.4 / 4
= 0.1
Zcritical at 99% = 2.576
Using the formula :
Sample size (n) = [ (Zcritical * σ) / M. E]^2
n = [(2.576 * 0.1) / 0.025]^2
n = (0.2576 / 0.025)
n = 10.304^2
n = 106.172
n = 107 samples

Answer:
Hello there!
Since he had 6 candies and lost two, all you have to do is subtract 2 from 6.
Therefore, Jerry only has 4 candies.
Hope this helps!!!

Answer:
13 and 16
Step-by-step explanation:
let the 2 parts be x and y, then
x + y = 29 → (1) and
x² + y² = 425 → (2)
From (1) → x = 29 - y → (3)
substitute x = 29 - y into (2)
(29 - y)² + y² = 425 ( expand factor )
841 - 58y + y² + y² = 425 ( rearrange into standard form )
2y² - 58y + 416 = 0 ← in standard quadratic form
divide all terms by 2
y² - 29y + 208 = 0
Consider the factors of 208 which sum to - 29
These are - 13 and - 16, hence
(y - 13)(y - 16) = 0
equate each factor to zero and solve for y
y - 13 = 0 ⇒ y = 13
y - 16 = 0 ⇒ y = 16
substitute these values into (3)
x = 29 - 13 = 16 and x = 29 - 16 = 13
The 2 parts are 13 and 16
