Answer:

(a) Margin of error ( E) = $2,000 , n = 54

(b) Margin of error ( E) = $1,000 , n = 216

(c) Margin of error ( E) = $500 , n= 864

Step-by-step explanation:

Given -

Standard deviation $\sigma$ = $7,500

$\alpha$ = 1 - confidence interval = 1 - .95 = .05

$Z_{\frac{\alpha}{2}}$ = $Z_{\frac{.05}{2}}$ = 1.96

let sample size is n

(a) Margin of error ( E) = $2,000

Margin of error ( E) = $Z_{\frac{\alpha}{2}}\frac{\sigma}{\sqrt{n}}$

E = $Z_{\frac{.05}{2}}\frac{7500}{\sqrt{n}}$

Squaring both side

$E^{2} = 1.96^{2}\times\frac{7500^{2}}{n}$

$n =\frac{1.96^{2}}{2000^{2}} \times 7500^{2}$

n = 54.0225

n = 54 ( approximately)

(b) Margin of error ( E) = $1,000

E = $Z_{\frac{\alpha}{2}}\frac{\sigma}{\sqrt{n}}$

1000 = $Z_{\frac{.05}{2}}\frac{7500}{\sqrt{n}}$

Squaring both side

$1000^{2} = 1.96^{2}\times\frac{7500^{2}}{n}$

$n =\frac{1.96^{2}}{1000^{2}} \times 7500^{2}$

n = 216

E = $Z_{\frac{\alpha}{2}}\frac{\sigma}{\sqrt{n}}$

500 = $Z_{\frac{.05}{2}}\frac{7500}{\sqrt{n}}$

Squaring both side

$500^{2} = 1.96^{2}\times\frac{7500^{2}}{n}$

$n =\frac{1.96^{2}}{500^{2}} \times 7500^{2}$

n = 864

Answer:

$-8 \sqrt{6}$

Step-by-step explanation:

$4i\sqrt{-24} \\4i\sqrt{-1} *\sqrt{24} \\4i*i*\sqrt{4}*\sqrt{6}\\-4 * 2*\sqrt{6} \\-8 \sqrt{6}$

$\sqrt{-1} =i \\i*i = -1$

A new television set was recently purchased for the common room in a residence hall for $436.80 including tax the tax rate is 4%

garri49 [273]

Answer:

The price of the television before taxes is $420

Step-by-step explanation:

* Lets explain how to solve the problem

- The purchased price = cost price + taxes

- A new television set was recently purchased for the common room

in a residence hall for $436.80

- This price including tax

- The tax rate is 4%

- We need to find the price of the television before taxes

* Lets solve the problem

- Assume that the price of the television before tax is 100%

∵ The tax rate is 4%

∵ The price after tax = price before tax + tax

∵ The price before tax = 100%

∴ The price after tax = 100% + 4% = 104%

∵ 104% equivalent to $436.80

∴ 100 ⇒ ?

104 ⇒ 436.80

- By using cross multiplication

∴ ? = $\frac{(436.80)(100)}{104}=420$

∴ The price of the television before taxes is $420
