Find the minimum sample size you should use to assure that your estimate of pÌ will be within the required margin of error around the population p. Assume the Margin of error is 0.08 with a confidence level of 95%. From a prior study, pÌ is estimated to be 0.2.

Answers

Answer 1

Answer:

The minimum sample size required is 97.

Step-by-step explanation:

The (1 - α)% confidence interval for the population proportion is:

[tex]CI=\hat p\pm z_{\alpha/2}\cdot\sqrt{\frac{\hat p(1-\hat p)}{n}}[/tex]

The margin of error for this confidence interval is:

[tex]MOE=z_{\alpha/2}\cdot\sqrt{\frac{\hat p(1-\hat p)}{n}}[/tex]

The information provided is:

[tex]\hat p=0.20\\MOE=0.08\\\text{Confidence level}=95\%[/tex]

The critical value of z for 95% confidence level is, z = 1.96.

Compute the minimum sample size required as follows:

[tex]MOE=z_{\alpha/2}\cdot\sqrt{\frac{\hat p(1-\hat p)}{n}}[/tex]

[tex]n=[\frac{z_{\alpha/2}\cdot\sqrt{\hat p(1-\hat p)}}{MOE}]^{2}\\\\=[\frac{1.96\times \sqrt{0.20(1-0.20)}}{0.08}]^{2}\\\\=96.04\\\\\approx 97[/tex]

Thus, the minimum sample size required is 97.

The point-slope form of the equation of a line that passes through points (8, 4) and (0, 2) is y - 4 = (x – 8). What
is the slope-intercept form of the equation for this line?
O y = 1 x - 12
O y = -x-4
O y=+*+2
O y=x+6

Answers

Answer: y = x/4 + 2

Y equals one fourth x plus two.

Step-by-step explanation:

There seems to be a typo on answer choice c.

Slope intercept form is y= mx + b

m is the slope. b is the y-intercept.

The y-intercept is given here in the coordinate (0,2) It is +2

Slope is rise/run.

Rise: Difference in given y-values is 4-2 = 2.

Run: Difference in x-values is 8-0=8.

So the slope is 2/8 = 1/4

The equation is y = 1/4 x + 2

Answers

Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:

as said in the question that the triangle has three equal sides. i.e. this is an equilateral triangle. So,

let us consider one side of the triangle to be x . and 3x( x+x+x) should be equal to 1/5

[tex]x+x+x = \frac{1}{5}\\3x=\frac{1}{5}\\x = \frac{1}{5} / 3\\x = \frac{1}{5} * \frac{1}{3}\\x = \frac{1}{15}[/tex]

For ( a ) It's just f(x) = -2x but the graph that's shown here intercepts y-axis at (0,2).   f(x) = -2x is just slope and intercepts y-axis at (0,0)

How will increasing the level of confidence without changing the sample size affect the width of a confidence interval for a population mean?

Answers

Answer:

The width of the confidence interval is going to be wider

Step-by-step explanation:

When we Increase the level of confidence without changing the sample size the width of the confidence interval is going to be affected in the following way;

The margin of error (M.E) is going to be larger or be increased. This increase is due to the fact that the critical value is going to increase. Then the increased margin of error would cause the width of the confidence interval to become wider.

e length of a rectangle is five times its width. If the area of the rectangle is 320in, find its perimeter.

Answers

Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:

Let width of rectangle =X

So length=5x

Given area of rectangle =320inch

Area of rectangle =length ×width

Length×width=320

5X×X=320

5x^2=320

x^2=320/5

x^2=64

So X=√64

Width x= 8inch

Length 5x=5×8

= 40 inch

Perimeter of rectangle =2(length+width)

=2(40+8)

=2(48)

=96inch

Instead of twenty thousand leagues under the sea, less than a hundred leagues had been accomplished, but no one can foretell what the future may have in store. The submarine is primarily utilized in wars. The weapon used by the submarine is the torpedo. The torpedo is itself a small submarine able to propel itself, and if started in the water toward a certain object, to go under water straight to the mark. It carries a heavy charge, either of guncotton or dynamite, which explodes when the torpedo strikes a solid object, such as a battle-ship. It would be very difficult for one submarine to fight another submarine, for the submarine when completely submerged is blind. It could not see in the water to find its enemy. The torpedo-boat-destroyer is able to destroy a submarine by torpedoes, shells full of high explosives, or quick-firing guns. Advantage must be taken of the moment when the submarine comes to the surface to get a view of her enemy. One of the great enemies of the submarine will probably be the air-ship, for while the submarine when under water cannot be seen from a ship on the surface, it can, under favorable conditions, be seen from a certain height in the air. The rising and sinking of the submarine depend on the principle of Archimedes. The upward push of the water is just equal to the weight of the water displaced. If the water displaced weighs more than the boat, then the upward push of the water is greater than the weight of the boat and the boat rises. However, the boat can be made to dive when its weight is just a little less than the weight of the water displaced. This is done by means of horizontal rudders which may be inclined so as to cause the boat to glide downward as its propeller drives it forward. There is one submarine built for peaceful pursuits. It is the Argonaut, invented by Simon Lake. This remarkable boat crawls along the bottom of the sea, but not at an immense depth. It is equipped with divers' appliances, and is used in saving wreckage. Divers can go out through the bottom of the boat, walk about on the sea bottom, and when through with their work re-enter the boat; all the while boat and men are, perhaps, a hundred feet below the surface. The divers' compartment, from which the divers go out into the water, is separated by an air-tight partition from the rest of the boat. Compressed air is forced into this compartment until the pressure of the air equals the pressure of the water outside. Then the door in the bottom is opened, and the air keeps the water out. The men in their diving-suits can then go out and in as they please. For every boat, there is a depth beyond which it must not go. The penalty for going beyond this depth is a battered vessel, for the pressure increases with the depth. Every time the depth is increased thirty-two feet, the pressure is increased fifteen pounds on every square inch. Beyond a certain depth, the vessel cannot resist the pressure. Submarines have been made strong enough to withstand the pressure at a depth of five thousand feet, or nearly a mile. Most submarines, however, cannot go deeper than a hundred and fifty feet. Air is supplied to the occupants of the boat either from reservoirs containing compressed air or oxygen, or by means of chemicals which absorb the carbon dioxide produced in breathing and restore the needed quantity of oxygen to the air.Select all the correct answers.Read the sentence from the passage.The submarine is primarily utilized in wars.Which two words have a similar denotation to the word utilized as it is used in the passage?A tiltedB.
