Answer:
The sample consisting of 64 data values would give a greater precision.
Step-by-step explanation:
The width of a (1 - <em>α</em>)% confidence interval for population mean μ is:
So, from the formula of the width of the interval it is clear that the width is inversely proportion to the sample size (<em>n</em>).
That is, as the sample size increases the interval width would decrease and as the sample size decreases the interval width would increase.
Here it is provided that two different samples will be taken from the same population of test scores and a 95% confidence interval will be constructed for each sample to estimate the population mean.
The two sample sizes are:
<em>n</em>₁ = 25
<em>n</em>₂ = 64
The 95% confidence interval constructed using the sample of 64 values will have a smaller width than the the one constructed using the sample of 25 values.
Width for n = 25:
![\text{Width}=2\cdot z_{\alpha/2}\cdot \frac{\sigma}{\sqrt{25}}=\frac{1}{5}\cdot [2\cdot z_{\alpha/2}\cdot \sigma]](https://tex.z-dn.net/?f=%5Ctext%7BWidth%7D%3D2%5Ccdot%20z_%7B%5Calpha%2F2%7D%5Ccdot%20%5Cfrac%7B%5Csigma%7D%7B%5Csqrt%7B25%7D%7D%3D%5Cfrac%7B1%7D%7B5%7D%5Ccdot%20%5B2%5Ccdot%20z_%7B%5Calpha%2F2%7D%5Ccdot%20%5Csigma%5D)
Width for n = 64:
![\text{Width}=2\cdot z_{\alpha/2}\cdot \frac{\sigma}{\sqrt{64}}=\frac{1}{8}\cdot [2\cdot z_{\alpha/2}\cdot \sigma]](https://tex.z-dn.net/?f=%5Ctext%7BWidth%7D%3D2%5Ccdot%20z_%7B%5Calpha%2F2%7D%5Ccdot%20%5Cfrac%7B%5Csigma%7D%7B%5Csqrt%7B64%7D%7D%3D%5Cfrac%7B1%7D%7B8%7D%5Ccdot%20%5B2%5Ccdot%20z_%7B%5Calpha%2F2%7D%5Ccdot%20%5Csigma%5D)
Thus, the sample consisting of 64 data values would give a greater precision
General exponential equation
y = A(1+r)^x
where
A = initial value
r = rate increase (+) or decrease (-)
x = time period of the change
y = projected value
y = 300(1.05)^x
in this problem, x = years after 2017
we want to find an x that makes the value more than or equal to 650
650 <= 300(1.05)^x
<span>5x²y + 2xy² + x²y
Combining like terms would be
6x²y + 2xy²
The two terms are now unique and cannot be combined any further. </span><span>

7 inches → 280 yards
1 inch → 280 ÷ 7 = 40 yards
5 inches → 40 x 5 = 200 yards
Area = 280 x 200 = 56 000 yards
Answer: 56 000 yards
Answer:
262 square feet of the ramp will be painted red.
Step-by-step explanation:
The lateral surface is surface area of the sides of the ramp without including the top and bottom faces
The ramp shown has three surfaces
The 2 sides are triangles with length 20 and height 8.5
The back is a rectangle shape with length 12 and height 8.5
Step 1: Finding the Area of triangle
The area of the triangle = 
The area of the triangle = 
The area of the triangle = 
The area of the triangle = 85 square feet
Area of 2 triangles = 
= 170
Step 2: Finding the Area of Rectangle
Area of rectangle = 
so,
Area of back rectangle = 
= 102 square feet
Step 3: Finding the total lateral surface area
Total Lateral Surface Area
= Area of triangle + Area of Rectangle
= 272 square feet
