Answer: SEE BELOW

Step-by-step explanation:

Decimals are multiplied as if they were whole numbers, and then the decimal point is placed in the product. To find out where the decimal point should be placed, count the number of decimal places after the decimal point in each factor.

0.43......... 2 decimal place(s) Add your decimal places = 3

0.2......... 1 decimal place(s)

0.086 Place decimal 3 decimal places in answer like so.

hope this helps you! Smile ; )

Stels [109]

Answer:

a) 0.1535

b) 0.4866

c) 0.8111

Step-by-step explanation:

The probability that the next call come within the next t minutes is:

$p(t) = 1 -e ^{- t/3}$

According to this model,

a) the probability that a call in comes within 1/2 minutes is $p(t) = 1 -e ^{- (1/2)/3}$ =0.1535

b) the probability that a call in comes within 2 minutes is $p(t) = 1 -e ^{-2/3}$ =0.4866

c) the probability that a call in comes within 5 minutes is $p(t) = 1 -e ^{-5/3}$ =0.8111

Anna11 [10]

Answer:

The estimate of a population proportion is approximately 541.

Step-by-step explanation:

We can solve the the problem by using the formula for minimum sample needed for interval estimate of a population proportion which is given by the formula

n = pq ((Z/2) / E)^2

As, p is not defined so we use the standard p and q which is 0.5 and 0.5.

The reason for this is we have to choose form 0.1 to 0.9 both values of p and q, we will find the maximum value of pq occurs when they both are 0.5.

Next, we will find the value of (Z/2) by looking at the Z-table, we will find that at 98% confidence (Z/2) = 2.326. Now we start substituting the values in the above formula

n = (0.5)×(0.5) × (2.326/0.05)^2

n = 541.027

n ≅ 541.
