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.
Option B. y = 3 (one-third) Superscript x is the function that is graphed in this question.
<h3>How to solve the problem</h3>
We have exponential functions to be of the form abˣ
This can be written in the form of f(x) = 
So it crosses through the point (0, 3).
From the way that the curve passes through the circle, we can see that the it is said to pass through at (0, 3) and approaches y = 0 in quadrant 1
Hence this would put our answer to be y = 3 (one-third) Superscript x

The value of the composite function (f - g)(x) is 5x - 25
<h3>How to determine the function (f - g)(x)?</h3>
The function definitions are given as:
f(x) = 15x + 25
g(x) = 10x + 50
The function (f - g)(x) is calculated using
(f - g)(x) = f(x) - g(x)
This gives
(f - g)(x) = 15x + 25 - 10x - 50
Evaluate the like terms
(f - g)(x) = 5x - 25
Hence, the value of the composite function (f - g)(x) is 5x - 25

<u>Complete question</u>
Cynthia was offered two different jobs for the summer. working as a camp counselor, she will earn $15 per hour plus an additional $25 bonus. her earnings after x hours can be represented by the function f(x) = 15x + 25. working as a lifeguard, Cynthia will earn $10 per hour and an additional $50 bonus. her earnings after x hours can be represented by the function g(x) = 10x + 50. the arithmetic operation (f - g)x can be used to determine the difference in the salary Cynthia will earn working as a camp counselor instead of a lifeguard after x hours. what is the function (f - g)x?
Example: 
We can see that there is more than one number with the variable x, therefore, we say they're ''like terms'' and because of that they can be summed. We do this with all of the other numbers with similar variables. If no numbers with similar variables are left, like 4a, you don't do anything but write them as they are. You can also see that 8 and 9 can also be summed because neither of them has a variable, therefore they're similar.
In this step, you just do the operation with the numbers and keep the same variable.


since there are not more numbers similar in variables, this operation is done.
