Step-by-step explanation:
We need to solve the equation for variable n
Solving:
Subtract both sides by 6p
Switch sides of equality
Divide both sides by 3
So, solving the equation for variable n we get
Part A
Answers:
Mean = 5.7
Standard Deviation = 0.046
-----------------------
The mean is given to us, which was 5.7, so there's no need to do any work there.
To get the standard deviation of the sample distribution, we divide the given standard deviation s = 0.26 by the square root of the sample size n = 32
So, we get s/sqrt(n) = 0.26/sqrt(32) = 0.0459619 which rounds to 0.046
================================================
Part B
The 95% confidence interval is roughly (3.73, 7.67)
The margin of error expression is z*s/sqrt(n)
The interpretation is that if we generated 100 confidence intervals, then roughly 95% of them will have the mean between 3.73 and 7.67
-----------------------
At 95% confidence, the critical value is z = 1.96 approximately
ME = margin of error
ME = z*s/sqrt(n)
ME = 1.96*5.7/sqrt(32)
ME = 1.974949
The margin of error is roughly 1.974949
The lower and upper boundaries (L and U respectively) are:
L = xbar-ME
L = 5.7-1.974949
L = 3.725051
L = 3.73
and
U = xbar+ME
U = 5.7+1.974949
U = 7.674949
U = 7.67
================================================
Part C
Confidence interval is (5.99, 6.21)
Margin of Error expression is z*s/sqrt(n)
If we generate 100 intervals, then roughly 95 of them will have the mean between 5.99 and 6.21. We are 95% confident that the mean is between those values.
-----------------------
At 95% confidence, the critical value is z = 1.96 approximately
ME = margin of error
ME = z*s/sqrt(n)
ME = 1.96*0.34/sqrt(34)
ME = 0.114286657
The margin of error is roughly 0.114286657
L = lower limit
L = xbar-ME
L = 6.1-0.114286657
L = 5.985713343
L = 5.99
U = upper limit
U = xbar+ME
U = 6.1+0.114286657
U = 6.214286657
U = 6.21
Answer: The annual interest rate is 1.06%
Step-by-step explanation: This is a simple interest computation.
The formular for a simple interest is given as;
I = (P ×R × T)/100
Where I represents the interest paid,
P represents Principal borrowed at the beginning
R represents the rate at which the interest is calculated
T represents the Time measured in number of years
If the interest is calculated as I = (P×R×T)/100, we should first of all make R the subject of the formular;
Multiply both sides by 100
100I = P×R×T
Divide both sides of the equation by P and T
(100I)/(P × T) = R
Now we can insert the values into the rearranged formular
(100 × 143)/(4500 × 3) = R
14,300/13,500 = R
143/135 = R
1.0592592593 = R
Therefore, R which is the rate of interest equals approximately 1.06%
Answer: The fire is 3.5 miles from tower B
Step-by-step explanation: Please refer to the attached diagram. The triangle in the attached diagram illustrates the clues given in the question. Both rangers are standing at points A and B respectively with a distance of 5 miles between them, which is line AB. Also, one ranger spots a fire from a tower at an angle of 42 degrees, which is point A. Another ranger spots the same fire from another tower, but from an angle of 64 degrees, which is point B. The fire is at point C on the triangle. Now we have a triangle with only one side known (5 miles) and three angles known (the third angle is computed as 180 - {64+42} which equals 74) which are 64 degrees, 42 degrees and 74 degrees.
The distance from the fire to tower B is calculated using the law of sines. (Note that this is not a right angled triangle, hence we cannot use trigonometric ratios). The law of sines is expressed as follows;
a/SinA = b/SinB or
a/SinA = c/SinC
Depending on the sides and angles we are given and the ones we are to calculate.
The distance from the fire to tower B is line BC, labeled as a in our diagram. Using the law of sines
a/SinA = c/SinC
(Note also that a is directly facing angle A, c is directly facing angle C, and so on)
a/SinA = c/SinC
a/Sin 42 = 5/Sin 74
By cross multiplication we now have
a (Sin 74) = 5 (Sin 42)
Divide both sides of the equation by Sin 74 and we now arrive at
a = 5 (Sin 42)/Sin 74
a = 5 (0.6691)/0.9613
a = 3.3455/0.9613
a = 3.4802
{rounded to the nearest tenth of a mile, a equals 3.5}
Therefore the distance from tower B to the fire is approximately 3.5 miles
