14) At a school 5/8 of the teachers are male

Lady bird [3.3K]

If 5/8 of the teachers are males, there are 45 male teachers.

Subtract this value from 72 (i.e., find 3/8 of 72), and you will find that there are 27 female teachers.

The water works commission needs to know the mean household usage of water by the residents of a small town in gallons per day.

valina [46]

Answer:

A sample of 179 is needed.

Step-by-step explanation:

We have that to find our $\alpha$ level, that is the subtraction of 1 by the confidence interval divided by 2. So:

$\alpha = \frac{1 - 0.85}{2} = 0.075$

Now, we have to find z in the Ztable as such z has a pvalue of $1 - \alpha$ .

That is z with a pvalue of $1 - 0.075 = 0.925$ , so Z = 1.44.

Now, find the margin of error M as such

$M = z\frac{\sigma}{\sqrt{n}}$

In which $\sigma$ is the standard deviation of the population and n is the size of the sample.

A previous study found that for an average family the variance is 1.69 gallon?

This means that $\sigma = \sqrt{1.69} = 1.3$

If they are using a 85% level of confidence, how large of a sample is required to estimate the mean usage of water?

A sample of n is needed, and n is found for M = 0.14. So

$M = z\frac{\sigma}{\sqrt{n}}$

$0.14 = 1.44\frac{1.3}{\sqrt{n}}$

$0.14\sqrt{n} = 1.44*1.3$

$\sqrt{n} = \frac{1.44*1.3}{0.14}$

$(\sqrt{n})^2 = (\frac{1.44*1.3}{0.14})^2$

$n = 178.8$

Rounding up

A sample of 179 is needed.

Mr. James has cylindrical beakers that measure 4 inches in diameter and 9 inches high. What is the volume contained within the b

goblinko [34]

So 4 inches diameter result the radius is 4/2 = 2 inches

area of base = pir^2 = 3,14*2^2 = 3,14*4 = 12,56 inches squared

volume = area of base *height

V = 12,56 *9 = 113,04 so rounded 113,05 inches cubed

hope this will help you
