ou are interested in estimating the the mean age of the citizens living in your community. In order to do this, you plan on constructing a confidence interval; however, you are not sure how many citizens should be included in the sample. If you want your sample estimate to be within 4 years of the actual mean with a confidence level of 96%, how many citizens should be included in your sample

Answers

Answer 1

Answer:

[tex](\frac{4\sigma}{2.056})^2[/tex], rounded up, if needed, citizens should be included in the sample, in which [tex]\sigma[/tex] is the standard deviation of the population.

Step-by-step explanation:

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

[tex]\alpha = \frac{1 - 0.96}{2} = 0.02[/tex]

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

That is z with a pvalue of [tex]1 - 0.02 = 0.98[/tex], so Z = 2.056.

Now, find the margin of error M as such

[tex]M = z\frac{\sigma}{\sqrt{n}}[/tex]

In which [tex]\sigma[/tex] is the standard deviation of the population and n is the size of the sample.

Within 4 years of the actual mean

We have to find n for which M = 4. So

[tex]M = z\frac{\sigma}{\sqrt{n}}[/tex]

[tex]4 = 2.056\frac{\sigma}{\sqrt{n}}[/tex]

[tex]2.056\sqrt{n} = 4\sigma[/tex]

[tex]\sqrt{n} = \frac{4\sigma}{2.056}[/tex]

[tex](\sqrt{n})^2 = (\frac{4\sigma}{2.056})^2[/tex]

[tex]n = (\frac{4\sigma}{2.056})^2[/tex]

[tex](\frac{4\sigma}{2.056})^2[/tex], rounded up, if needed, citizens should be included in the sample, in which [tex]\sigma[/tex] is the standard deviation of the population.

How to Simplify 9:27

Answers

simply divide the numerator and denominator by 9 (the GCF). So, 927 = 9÷927÷9 = 13. Thus, 927 is equivalent to 13 in the reduced form.

Answer:

It's simplified form is 1:3

Step-by-step explanation:

1st step: Convert them into fraction i.e.

[tex] \frac{9}{27} [/tex]

2nd step: Now check for their HCF i.e 9 so,

[tex] \frac{9 \div 9}{27 \div 9} [/tex]

And divide it with both the numerator and denominator and the result is,

[tex] \frac{1}{3} [/tex]

3rd step: Now convert them into ratio i.e

1:3

Hence, 9:27 simplified format is 1:3 (Ans)

Answers

Answer:

220.5 ft²

Step-by-step explanation:

Hello There!

To find the area of the figure we want to split the figure into two shapes that a formula can easily be used to calculate their area

We split it into a rectangle with a length of 12 and a height of 14

and we split it into a trapezoid with base lengths that are equal to 7 and 14 and a height of 5

Now we can easily solve for the area

for the rectangle we use the formula

[tex]A=lw[/tex]

where l = length and w = width

[tex]a=12*14\\12*14=168\\a=168[/tex] so the rectangles area is 168 ft²

Now let's solve for the trapezoid's area

To calculate the area of the trapezoid we use the formula

[tex]A=\frac{a+b}{2} h[/tex]

where a and b = the bases and h = height

all we have to do is plug in the values

[tex]a=\frac{7+14}{2} 5\\7+14=21\\\frac{21}{2} =10.5\\10.5*5=52.5[/tex]

so the area of the trapezoid is 52.5 ft²

Now we just add the two areas together

52.5+168=220.5

so the total area of the figure is 220.5 ft²

The approximate length (in cm) of a typical Pacific halibut t years old is given by f(t) = 200(1 -0.956e-0.181).
A Pacific lialibut caught by Mike measures 140cm. What is its approximate age?​

Answers

Answer:

6 years old

Step-by-step explanation:

Given

[tex]f(t) = 200(1 -0.956e^{-0.18t})[/tex]

Required

Find t when f(t) = 140cm

Substitute f(t) = 140cm

[tex]140 = 200(1 -0.956e^{-0.18t})[/tex]

Divide both sides by 200

[tex]0.7 = 1 -0.956e^{-0.18t}[/tex]

Collect like terms

[tex]0.956e^{-0.18t} = 1 -0.7[/tex]

[tex]0.956e^{-0.18t} = 0.3[/tex]

Solve for t

[tex]e^{-0.18t} = 0.3/0.956[/tex]

[tex]e^{-0.18t} = 0.31381[/tex]

Take natural logarithm of both sides

[tex]ln(e^{-0.18t}) = ln(0.31381)[/tex]

[tex]-0.18tln(e) = ln(0.31381)[/tex]

[tex]-0.18t*1 = ln(0.31381)[/tex]

[tex]-0.18t = -1.159[/tex]

Solve for t

[tex]t = (-1.159)/(-0.18)[/tex]

[tex]t = 6.43[/tex]

[tex]t \approx 6[/tex]

Answer:

Los números decimales son una combinación de números enteros y números que se encuentran entre los números enteros. A veces es importante poder comparar decimales para saber cuál es mayor. Por ejemplo, si alguien corrió los 100 metros planos en 10.57 segundos, y alguien más los corrió en 10.67 segundos, puedes comparar los decimales para determinar qué tiempo es más rápido. Saber cómo comparar decimales requiere el entendimiento del valor de posición decimal, y es similar a comprar números enteros.

 

Cuando trabajamos con decimales, hay veces que no se necesita un número preciso. En tal caso, es útil redondear números decimales. Por ejemplo, si la bomba de una gasolinera muestra que llenaste el tanque del carro de un amigo con 16.478 galones de gasolina, podrías querer redondear el número y decirle a tu amigo que le pusiste 16.5 galones.

Step-by-step explanation:

Otra forma de comparar decimales es comparar los dígitos en cada número, empezando con el lugar de posición mayor, que es el de la izquierda. Cuando un dígito en un número decimal es mayor que el dígito correspondiente en el otro número, entonces ése número decimal es mayor.

 

Por ejemplo, primero compara los dígitos de las décimas. Si son iguales, continúa con el lugar de las centésimas. Si esos dígitos no son iguales, el decimal con el dígito mayor es el número decimal mayor. Observa cómo se hace esto en los ejemplos siguientes.

At a picnic, there is a 5-gallon drink
dispenser filled with juice. Juice is served
in cups that each hold 8 fluid Ounces when
they are full. What is the greatest number
of cups that can be served?

Answers

Answer:

80 cups

Step-by-step explanation:

There are 640 ounces in 5 gallons so,

640 divided by 8 equals 80, therefore,

The greatest number of cups that can be served are 80

5 gallons is equal to 640 fluid ounces so if you divide 640 by the 8 fluid ounces that the cup can hold full this would give you 80 therefore you could fill 80 cups

Answers

Answer:

t = 35.13

Step-by-step explanation:

Simplifying

62.52 = 27.39 + t

Solving

62.52 = 27.39 + t

Solving for variable 't'.

Move all terms containing t to the left, all other terms to the right.

Add '-1t' to each side of the equation.

62.52 + -1t = 27.39 + t + -1t

Combine like terms: t + -1t = 0

62.52 + -1t = 27.39 + 0

62.52 + -1t = 27.39

Add '-62.52' to each side of the equation.

62.52 + -62.52 + -1t = 27.39 + -62.52

Combine like terms: 62.52 + -62.52 = 0.00

0.00 + -1t = 27.39 + -62.52

-1t = 27.39 + -62.52

Combine like terms: 27.39 + -62.52 = -35.13

-1t = -35.13

Divide each side by '-1'.

t = 35.13

Simplifying

t = 35.13
