Answer:
The administrator should sample 968 students.
Step-by-step explanation:
We have 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 - 0.88}{2} = 0.06[/tex]
Now, we have to find z in the Z-table as such z has a p-value of [tex]1 - \alpha[/tex].
That is z with a p-value of [tex]1 - 0.06 = 0.94[/tex], so Z = 1.555.
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.
Standard deviation of 300.
This means that [tex]n = 300[/tex]
If the administrator would like to limit the margin of error of the 88% confidence interval to 15 points, how many students should the administrator sample?
This is n for which M = 15. So
[tex]M = z\frac{\sigma}{\sqrt{n}}[/tex]
[tex]15 = 1.555\frac{300}{\sqrt{n}}[/tex]
[tex]15\sqrt{n} = 300*1.555[/tex]
Dividing both sides by 15
[tex]\sqrt{n} = 20*1.555[/tex]
[tex](\sqrt{n})^2 = (20*1.555)^2[/tex]
[tex]n = 967.2[/tex]
Rounding up:
The administrator should sample 968 students.
a store sign reads "Take 75% of the original price when you take an additional 15% off the sale price, which is 60% off the original price." Is the stores sign accurate?
Answer:
The new price is 66% off the original not 75% off
Step-by-step explanation:
Let x be the original price
First take 60 percent off
x - x*60% = new price
x- .60x = .40x
The new price is .40x
Then take 15 % off
(.40x) - (.40x)*15%
.40x - .40x*.15
.40x - .06x
.34x
100 -.34 =.66
The new price is 66% off the original not 75% off
In an experiment, you choose to have two randomly assigned groups. In one, you take measurements both pretest and posttest; with the second, a posttest-only measure. This describes which task of conducting an experiment
Answer:
The answer is "Specific treatment levels".
Step-by-step explanation:
When we experimenting with 'level' which is related to the quantity or magnitude of treatment. For this part of an experiment or study, a group or individual is exposed to a specified set of circumstances. For example: If four categories are exposed to different doses of a given drug, then each dose reflects a level of a treatment factor in the model.

9514 1404 393
Answer:
$3277.23
Step-by-step explanation:
The future value of the CD with interest at rate r compounded semiannually for t years will be given by ...
A = P(1 +r/2)^(2t)
where P is the principal value.
For the given rate and time, this is ...
A = $2000(1 +0.05/2)^(2·10) = $2000(1.025^20) ≈ $3277.23
The value of the CD at maturity will be $3277.23.
Consider this equation. √x - 1 - 5 = x - 8 The equation has(two valid solutions, one valid solution) and(one extraneous solution, no extraneous solutions) A valid solution for x is(0, 4, 2, 5)
The equation has 2 valid solutions; no extraneous solutions
The given equation is:
[tex]\sqrt{x - 1} - 5= x - 8[/tex]
First, we determine the solutions
[tex]\sqrt{x - 1} - 5= x - 8[/tex]
Add 5 to both sides
[tex]\sqrt{x - 1} = x - 8 + 5[/tex]
[tex]\sqrt{x - 1} = x - 3[/tex]
Square both sides
[tex]x - 1 = (x - 3)^2[/tex]
Expand
[tex]x - 1 = x^2- 3x - 3x + 9[/tex]
[tex]x - 1 = x^2- 6x + 9[/tex]
Collect like terms
[tex]x^2 - 6x - x + 9 + 1 = 0[/tex]
[tex]x^2 - 7x + 10 = 0[/tex]
Expand again
[tex]x^2 - 2x-5x + 10 = 0[/tex]
Factorize
[tex]x(x - 2) -5(x -2)= 0[/tex]
Factor out x - 2
[tex](x - 5)(x -2)= 0[/tex]
Split
[tex]x - 5=0[/tex] or [tex]x - 2 = 0[/tex]
[tex]x= 5[/tex] or [tex]x = 2[/tex]
The above values are valid values of x.
Hence, the equation has 2 valid solutions; no extraneous solutions

Wayne has a rectangular painting. The width of the painting is
5/6
of a foot, and the length is
3/4
of a foot. What is the area of the painting?
Answer:
5/8 ft^2
Step-by-step explanation:
The area of a rectangle is given by
A = l*w where l is the length and w is the width
A = 5/6 * 3/4
A = 3/6 * 5/4
A = 1/2 * 5/4
A = 5/8 ft^2
What is the sum of the geometric sequence 1, 3, 9, ... if there are 10 terms? (5 points)
Answer:
[tex]S_n = \frac{1 (1 - 3^{10})}{1 - 3} = 29524[/tex]
Step-by-step explanation:
There's a handy formula we can use to find the sum of a geometric sequence, and here it is
[tex]S_n = \frac{a_1 (1 - r^n)}{1 - r}[/tex]
The value n represents the amount of terms you want to sum in the sequence. The variable r is known as the common ratio, and a is just some constant. Let's find those values.
First lets visualize this sequence
[tex]n_1 = 1\\n_2 = 1 + 3\\n_3 = 1 + 3 + 3^2\\n_4=1+3+3^2+3^3\\...[/tex]
Okay so there's clearly a pattern here, let's write it a bit more concisely. For each n, starting at 1, we raise 3 to the (n-1) power, add it to what we had for the previous term.
[tex]S_n = \sum{3^{n-1}} = 3^{1 - 1} + 3^{2 - 1} + 3^{3-1} ...[/tex]
Our coefficients of r, and a, are already here! As you can see below, r is just 3, and a is just 1.
[tex]S_n = \sum{a*r^{n-1}}[/tex]
To finish up lets plug these coefficients in and get our sum after 10 terms.
[tex]S_n = \frac{1 (1 - 3^{10})}{1 - 3} = 29524[/tex]

Please help me determine the general equation for the graph above as well as solve for a. Thank you.
Observe that the x coords of the roots of a polynomial are,
[tex]x_{1,2,3,4}=\{-3,0,1,4\}[/tex]
Which can be put into form,
[tex]y=a(x-x_1)(x-x_2)(x-x_3)(x-x_4)[/tex]
with data
[tex]y=a(x-(-3))(x-0)(x-1)(x-4)=ax(x+3)(x-1)(x-4)[/tex]
Now if I take any root point and insert it into the equation I won't be able to solve for y because they will always multiply to zero (ie. when I pick [tex]x=-3[/tex] the right hand side will multiply to zero,
[tex]y=-3a(-3+3)(-3-1)(-3-4)=0[/tex]
and a will be "lost" in the process.
If we observed a non-root point that we could substitute with x and y and result in a non-loss process then you could find a. But since there is no such point (I don't think you can read it of the graph) there is no other viable way to find a.
Hope this helps :)

Answer:
x = -3
Step-by-step explanation:
12 -4x-5x = 39
Combine like terms
12 - 9x = 39
Subtract 12 from each side
12-9x-12 = 39-12
-9x = 27
Divide by -9
-9x/-9 = 27/-9
x = -3
Answer:
x = -3
Step-by-step explanation:
12 - 4x - 5x = 39
Combine like terms
12 - 9x = 39
Subtract 12 from both sides
12 - 12 - 9x = 39 - 12
-9x = 27
Divide both sides by -9
-9x/-9 = 27/-9
x = -3

Answer:
-52
Step-by-step explanation:
-4(x + 10) - 6 = -3(x - 2)
Distribute the left side to get:
(-4x + -40) - 6
Now distribute the right side to get:
-3x + 6
Arrange the equation as the following:
-4x - 40 - 6 = -3x + 6
Add the like terms on each side:
-4x - 46 = -3x + 6
Do the inverse operation of each term:
-x = 52
Now we need to get x to become a positive, so we just divide -x by -1 to get x.
And 52/-1 to get our final answer of -52.

Silicone implant augmentation rhinoplasty is used to correct congenital nose deformities. The success of the procedure depends on various biomechanical properties of the human nasal periosteum and fascia. An article reported that for a sample of 10 (newly deceased) adults, the mean failure strain (%) was 24.0, and the standard deviation was 3.2.
Required:
a. Assuming a normal distribution for failure strain, estimate true average strain in a way that converys information about precision and reliability.
b. Predict the strain for a single adult in a way that conveys information about precision and reliability. How does the prediction compare to the estimate calculated in part (a)?
Solution :
Given information :
A sample of n = 10 adults
The mean failure was 24 and the standard deviation was 3.2
a). The formula to calculate the 95% confidence interval is given by :
[tex]$\overline x \pm t_{\alpha/2,-1} \times \frac{s}{\sqrt n}$[/tex]
Here, [tex]$t_{\alpha/2,n-1} = t_{0.05/2,10-1}$[/tex]
= 2.145
Substitute the values
[tex]$24 \pm 2.145 \times \frac{3.2}{\sqrt {10}}$[/tex]
(26.17, 21.83)
When the [tex]\text{sampling of the same size}[/tex] is repeated from the [tex]\text{population}[/tex] [tex]n[/tex] infinite number of [tex]\text{times}[/tex], and the [tex]\text{confidence intervals}[/tex] are constructed, then [tex]95\%[/tex] of them contains the [tex]\text{true value of the population mean}[/tex], μ in between [tex](26.17, 21.83)[/tex]
b). The formula to calculate 95% prediction interval is given by :
[tex]$\overline x \pm t_{\alpha/2,-1} \times s \sqrt{1+\frac{1}{n}}$[/tex]
[tex]$24 \pm 2.145 \times 3.2 \sqrt{1+\frac{1}{10}}$[/tex]
