Answer:

Tan T = 7/24

Step-by-step explanation:

Firstly, please check attachment to have a picture of the triangle we are solving.

Now, we are concerned with calculating the ratio that represents the tangent of angle T.

Mathematically, the tangent of an angle is the ratio of the length of the opposite to the length of the adjacent.

In this question, our opposite is 7 while the adjacent is 24.

Thus Tan T = 7/24

The length of overline CD is 12 units. C^ prime D^ prime is the image of overline CD under a dilation with a scale factor of n.

Rufina [12.5K]

Answer:

A, D , and E

Step-by-step explanation:

We have that:

$\overline{CD} = 12 \: units$

$\overline{C'D'}$

is the image of CD after a dilation of scale factor n.

We use the relation between the image length and object length:

$\overline{C'D'} = n \times \overline{CD}$

Option A

If n=3/2, then

$\overline{C'D'} = \frac{3}{2} \times 12 = 3 \times 6 = 18 \: units$

This is true.

Option B

If n=4, then

$\overline{C'D'} = 4 \times 12 = 36 \: units$

This is false.

Option C

If n=8, then

$\overline{C'D'} = 8 \times 12 = 96 \: units$

This too is false.

Option D

If n=2, then

$\overline{C'D'} = 2 \times 12 = 24 \: units$

This is true

Option E

If n=3/4, then

$\overline{C'D'} = \frac{3}{4} \times 12$

$\overline{C'D'} = 3 \times 3 = 9 \: units$

This is also true.

Answer: 36 + 4d

Step-by-step explanation:

so basically we just distribute to all the numbers in the parantheses. so 4 times 9 is 36 and 4 times d is 4d.

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.
