Tip: Go step-by-step

Let the number = x

Eight times the difference between a number and seven.. = 8(x-7)

is the same as... =

the number increased by 4.. x+4

8(x-7)=x+4

Distribute

8x-56=x+4

Subtract x from both sides

7x-56=4

Add 56 to both sides

7x=60

x=60/7

Look at the construction instructions, when constructing a perpendicular bisector, why must the arcs intersect?

Sonbull [250]

The arcs must intersect(cross) in order to connect to the vertex of the angle.

What is an arc?

The bow of a circle or arc is defined as the part or member of the circumference of a circle.
A straight line that could be drawn by connecting the two ends of the bow or arc is known as a passion of a circle. However, it's known as a semicircular arc, If the length of a arc is exactly half of the circle.
You can describe the bend of a rainbow as an arc. In calculation, an arc is one section of a circle, but in life, you can use the word to mean any twisted shape, like the bow of a ballerina's arm or the graceful arc of a flowering vine over a kiosk.

The arcs must intersect(cross) in order to connect to the vertex of the angle.

A computer manufacturing company has sent a mail survey to 2,800 of its randomly selected customers that have purchased a new la

vodka [1.7K]

Answer:

The 96% confidence interval for the population proportion of customers satisfied with their new computer is (0.77, 0.83).

Step-by-step explanation:

We have to calculate a 96% confidence interval for the proportion.

We consider the sample size to be the customers that responded the survey (n=800), as we can not assume the answer for the ones that did not answer.

The sample proportion is p=0.8.

$p=X/n=640/800=0.8$

The standard error of the proportion is:

$\sigma_p=\sqrt{\dfrac{p(1-p)}{n}}=\sqrt{\dfrac{0.8*0.2}{800}}\\\\\\ \sigma_p=\sqrt{0.0002}=0.014$

The critical z-value for a 96% confidence interval is z=2.054.

The margin of error (MOE) can be calculated as:

$MOE=z\cdot \sigma_p=2.054 \cdot 0.014=0.03$

Then, the lower and upper bounds of the confidence interval are:

$LL=p-z \cdot \sigma_p = 0.8-0.03=0.77\\\\UL=p+z \cdot \sigma_p = 0.8+0.03=0.83$

The 96% confidence interval for the population proportion is (0.77, 0.83).
