Answer:
a) n = 1037.
b) n = 1026.
Step-by-step explanation:
In a sample with a number n of people surveyed with a probability of a success of , and a confidence level of , we have the following confidence interval of proportions.
In which
z is the zscore that has a pvalue of
The margin of error is:
99% confidence level
So , z is the value of Z that has a pvalue of , so .
(a) Assume that nothing is known about the percentage to be estimated.
We need to find n when M = 0.04.
We dont know the percentage to be estimated, so we use , which is when we are going to need the largest sample size.
Rounding up
n = 1037.
(b) Assume prior studies have shown that about 55% of full-time students earn bachelor's degrees in four years or less.
So
Rounding up
n = 1026.
Ok sweetheart, the easy way to solve these problems is to change them to all the same form for example "decimal" after that you sort them! just don't forget to remember which is which!!! so this is how you solve.
squared 25, 4.26, 3 1/5 2^3,2.58
i converted each so your answer is A.
A + b = 15 ..... eq 1
a – b = 12 ...... eq 2
So a = 15 – b
Substitute in eq 2 :
15 – b – b = 12
15 – 2b = 12
–2b = 12 – 15
b = 1.5
So a = 15 – 3/2 = 13.5
4ab = 4 x 13.5 x 1.5 = 81
15,640 * 7.2% = 1,126.80 Sales tax
Total cost:
cost of an item: 15,640 - 2,500 = 13,140.00
sales tax 1,126.80
registration fee <u> 106.00</u>
