Answer:
The smallest sample size n that will guarantee at least a 90% chance of the sample mean income being within $500 of the population mean income is 48.
Step-by-step explanation:
The complete question is:
The mean salary of people living in a certain city is $37,500 with a standard deviation of $2,103. A sample of n people will be selected at random from those living in the city. Find the smallest sample size n that will guarantee at least a 90% chance of the sample mean income being within $500 of the population mean income. Round your answer up to the next largest whole number.
Solution:
The (1 - α)% confidence interval for population mean is:
[tex]CI=\bar x\pm z_{\alpha/2}\cdot\frac{\sigma}{\sqrt{n}}[/tex]
The margin of error for this interval is:
[tex]MOE=z_{\alpha/2}\cdot\frac{\sigma}{\sqrt{n}}[/tex]
The critical value of z for 90% confidence level is:
z = 1.645
Compute the required sample size as follows:
[tex]MOE=z_{\alpha/2}\cdot\frac{\sigma}{\sqrt{n}}[/tex]
[tex]n=[\frac{z_{\alpha/2}\cdot\sigma}{MOE}]^{2}\\\\=[\frac{1.645\times 2103}{500}]^{2}\\\\=47.8707620769\\\\\approx 48[/tex]
Thus, the smallest sample size n that will guarantee at least a 90% chance of the sample mean income being within $500 of the population mean income is 48.

What is an equation of the line that passes through the point (-8,0) and is perpendicular to the line x+2y=14
Step-by-step explanation:
let eqn be y = mx + b.
Since perpendicular, m = - 1/(-0.5) = 2
sub (-8, 0):
0 = 2(8) + b
b = - 16
therefore equation is y = 2x - 16

A box with a square base and an open top is to be constructed using 7500 sq. in. of cardboard. Find the dimensions of the box that will maximize its volume. What is the maximum volume
Answer:
Step-by-step explanation:
Let the length of one side of the square base be x
Let the height of the box by y
Volume of the box V = x²y
Since the box is opened at the top, the total surface area S = x² + 2xy + 2xy
S = x² + 4xy
Given
S = 7500sq in.
Substitute into the formula for calculating the total surface area
7500 = x² + 4xy
Make y the subject of the formula;
7500 - x² = 4xy
y = (7500-x²)/4x
Since V = x²y
V = x² (7500-x²)/4x
V = x(7500-x²)/4
V = 1/4(7500x-x³)
For us to maximize the volume, then dV/dx = 0
dV/dx = 1/4(7500-3x²)
1/4(7500-3x²) = 0
(7500-3x²) = 0
7500 = 3x²
x² = 7500/3
x² = 2500
x = √2500
x = 50in
Since y = (7500-x²)/4x
y = 7500-2500/4(50)
y = 5000/200
y = 25in
Hence the dimensions of the box that will maximize its volume is 50in by 50in by 25in.
The Volume of the box V = 50²*25
V = 2500*25
V= 62,500in³
Hence the maximum volume is 62,500in³

a nursery sells kentucky bluegrass seed for $5.75 per pound and tall fescue seed for $4.50 per pound. the nursery sells a mixture of the two kinds of seed for $5.25 per pound. let k represent the amount of kentucky blue grass seed the nusery uses in in 5 pounds of the mixture
Answer:
[tex]k=3[/tex]
Step-by-step explanation:
Given that:
Per pound cost of kentucky bluegrass seed = $5.75
Per pound cost of tall fescue seed = $4.50
Per pound cost of mixture of seeds = $5.25
[tex]k[/tex] is the amount of kentucky blue grass.
Total amount of the mixture = 5 pounds
Therefore, amount of tall fescue seed = (5 - [tex]k[/tex]) pounds
To find:
The value of [tex]k[/tex].
Cost of [tex]k[/tex] pounds of kentucky bluegrass seed = [tex]\$5.75k[/tex]
Cost of (5 - [tex]k[/tex]) pounds of tall fescue seed = [tex]\$(5-k)4.50[/tex]
As per question statement:
[tex]5.75k+(5-k)4.50=5.25\times 5\\\Rightarrow 575k+5\times 450 -450k=525\times5\\\Rightarrow 125k=75\times5\\\Rightarrow k =3\ pounds[/tex]
Amount of kentucky blue grass seed used = 3 pounds
Amount of tall fescue seed used = 5-3 = 2 pounds

The slope is the same as the unit rate and constant of a proportionality in a _______.
A. Prortional relationship
B. Slope
C. Rise
D. x2- x1
E. Run
F.y2 - y1
Answer:
I think the answer is B: Slope
Step-by-step explanation:
On a graph, proportional relationships are straight lines that extend through the origin. The relative steepness of the line is called slope; the slope of a graph is the same as the constant of proportionality of the equation.
Hope this helped, Have a Wonderful Day!!
The slope is the same as the unit rate and constant of proportionality in a slope. Then the correct option is B.
What is a linear equation?A connection between a number of variables results in a linear model when a graph is displayed. The variable will have a degree of one.
The linear equation is given as,
y = mx + c
Where m is the slope of the line and c is the y-intercept of the line.
A ratio is a group of sequentially ordered numbers a and b expressed as a/b, where b is never equal to zero. When two objects are equal, a statement is said to be proportional.
The slope is the same as the unit rate and constant of proportionality in a slope. Then the correct option is B.

Required:
a. What is k?
b. Determine the individuals who will be administered the survey.
Answer:
Explained below.
Step-by-step explanation:
The human resource department at a certain company wants to conduct a survey regarding worker morale. The department has an alphabetical list of all 4,502 employees at the company and wants to conduct a systematic sample of size 50.
Systematic sampling is a kind of probability sampling method in which individuals from a larger population are nominated according to a random initial point and a static, periodic interval.
(a)
A sample of size 50.
Then the value of k will be: [tex]k=\frac{4502}{50}=90.04\approx 50[/tex]
Thus, the value of k is 90.
(b)
Label the employees from 1 to 4502.
And select every 90th employee.
So, the individuals who will be administered the survey are:
90th, 180th, 270th,...

To demonstrate probabilities, a mathematics teacher had students draw cards from a bag which contained 26 red cards and 26 black cards. During class, the bag was dropped, and 5 red cards and 1 black card were lost.
Tell whether the loss of cards changes the probability of drawing a black card from the bag.
If so, was the probability increased or decreased? Support your answer by calculating the probability for each situation.
Answer:
The probability of drawing increases from drawing a black card from the bag.
Step-by-step explanation:
If 5 were dropped from red it would leave red with 21 cards and if 1 was dropped from black cards it would leave 25 cards in black cards. It does change the probability of drawing a red card it is more likely now to draw a black card than a red card because there are more black cards than red.

How do you do these problems?
Answer:
18e⁶
⁵/₁₂₈
Step-by-step explanation:
Rₙ(x) = f⁽ⁿ⁺¹⁾(c) / (n+1)! (x − a)ⁿ⁺¹, and a < c < x.
f(x) = eˣ, a = 0, and n = 1. Thus R₁ is:
R₁(x) = f"(z)/2! x²
R₁(x) = eᶻ/2 x²
|R₁| is a maximum when |f"(z)| is a maximum. On the domain 0 < z < 6, that maximum is e⁶. At x = 6, the upper bound of |R₁| is:
|R₁| = 18e⁶
This time, f(x) = 1 / √(1 + x) = (1 + x)^-½. a = 0, and n = 2.
R₂(x) = f⁽³⁾(z)/3! x³
Find f⁽³⁾(x):
f'(x) = -½ (1 + x)^-³/₂
f"(x) = ¾ (1 + x)^-⁵/₂
f⁽³⁾(x) = -¹⁵/₈ (1 + x)^-⁷/₂
On the domain -½ < z < 0, |f⁽³⁾(z)| is a maximum at z = 0.
|f⁽³⁾(z)| = ¹⁵/₈
Therefore, at x = -½, the upper bound of R₂ is:
|R₂| = (¹⁵/₈)/6 |(-½)³|
|R₂| = ⁵/₁₂₈
