Two owners of a cattle ranch, Robert and Val, want to find the average weight for the ranch’s 200 cows. Instead of weighing all

of the cows: Robert weighs 25 cows and gets an average weight of 1,550 pounds (stdev = 50) Val weighs 100 cows and gets an average weight of 1,380 pounds (stdev = 50) What is Val’s margin of error, rounded to the nearest whole number? (The formula is 1.96 (std dev) / square root of N

Using it's formula, it is found that Val's margin of error is of 9.8 pounds.

<h3>Margin of error:</h3>

The margin of error is given by the following equation:

M = 1.96\frac{s}{\sqrt{n}}

In which:

  • s is the standard deviation.
  • n is the sample size.

In this problem:

  • The standard deviation is of 50, hence s = 50.
  • Val weighed 100 cows, hence n = 100.

Then:

M = 1.96\frac{s}{\sqrt{n}}

M = 1.96\frac{50}{\sqrt{100}}

M = 9.8

Val's margin of error is of 9.8 pounds.

The subtraction sign in front of the second set of parenthesis changes the signs on the terms inside those parenthesis.  So this could be rewritten as  x-3x^4+2x^2+x^3-4x^6.  None of the exponents on the x are the same, so we will just express it in terms of descending powers of x.   -4x^6-3x^4+x^3+2x^2+x.   This is also the same as  4x^6+3x^4-x^3-2x^2-x  if you don't like to start with a negative.  Either one is correct.
