Answer:

35 students in the class.

Step-by-step explanation:

If there are 5 students in the class, then 2 of them would wear glasses and 3 of them wouldn't. (Equation 1)

Now, there are 14 students how are wearing glasses.

We just times the whole Equation 1 by 7.

If there are 5 x 7 = 35 students in the class, then 2 x 7 = 14 of them would wear glasses and 3 x 7 = 21 of them wouldn't.

So, there are 35 students.

The state education commission wants to estimate the fraction of tenth grade students that have reading skills at or below the e
Korolek [52]

Answer:

A sample of 499 is needed.

Step-by-step explanation:

In a sample with a number n of people surveyed with a probability of a success of \pi, and a confidence level of 1-\alpha, we have the following confidence interval of proportions.

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

In which

z is the zscore that has a pvalue of 1 - \frac{\alpha}{2}.

The margin of error is given by:

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

In this question, we have that:

\pi = 0.21

90% confidence level

So \alpha = 0.1, z is the value of Z that has a pvalue of 1 - \frac{0.1}{2} = 0.95, so Z = 1.645.

How large a sample would be required in order to estimate the fraction of tenth graders reading at or below the eighth grade level at the 90% confidence level with an error of at most 0.03

We need a sample of n, which is found when M = 0.03. So

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

0.03 = 1.645\sqrt{\frac{0.21*0.79}{n}}

0.03\sqrt{n} = 1.645\sqrt{0.21*0.79}

\sqrt{n} = \frac{1.645\sqrt{0.21*0.79}}{0.03}

(\sqrt{n})^2 = (\frac{1.645\sqrt{0.21*0.79}}{0.03})^2

n = 498.81

Rounding up

A sample of 499 is needed.

If f(x)=(1/8)(8^x) what is f(3)?<br> A. 1/512<br> B. 1/64<br> C. 512<br> D. 64
cestrela7 [59]
Hi there!

Let's solve this problem step by step!
f(x) =  \frac{1}{8} (8 {}^{x})

To find f(3) we must substitute x = 3 into the formula.
f(3) =  \frac{1}{8} (8 {}^{3} )

Now we use PEMDAS (Parenthesis, exponents, multiply, divide, add, subtract) to find our answer.

Work out the exponents inside the parenthesis first.
f(3) =  \frac{1}{8}  \times 512

And finally multiply.
f(3) =  \frac{1}{8}  \times  \frac{512}{1}  =  \frac{512}{8}  = 64

Hence, the answer is D. 64.
~ Hope this helps you!
