(10,000,000) + (6,000,000) + (100,000) + (7,000) + (300) + (20)
Answer: 267.
Step-by-step explanation:
When there is no prior information for the population proportion, then the formula we use to find the sample size to estimate the confidence interval :
, where z* = Critical z-value and E + amrgin of error.
Let p = proportion of packages of ground beef sold at a particular store that have an actual fat content exceeding the fat content stated on the label.
Since , we have no prior information about p. so we use above formula
with E = 0.06 and critical value for 95% confidence =z* =1.96 [By z-table ] , we get

Hence, the required sample size is 267.
QUESTION 1
We want to solve,

We factor the denominator of the fraction on the right hand side to get,

This implies


We multiply through by LCM of


We expand to get,

We group like terms and equate everything to zero,

We split the middle term,

We factor to get,





But

is not in the domain of the given equation.
It is an extraneous solution.

is the only solution.
QUESTION 2

We add x to both sides,

We square both sides,

We expand to get,

This implies,

We solve this quadratic equation by factorization,





But

is an extraneous solution
Answer:
x^ (5/3) y ^ 1/3
Step-by-step explanation:
Rewriting as exponents
(x^5y) ^ 1/3
We know that a^ b^c = a^(b*c)
x^ (5/3) y ^ 1/3
