After calculating the sample size needed to estimate a population proportion to within 0.05, you have been told that the maximum

Svetlanka [38]

Answer: 40000

Step-by-step explanation:

The formula to find the sample size is given by :-

$n=p(1-p)(\dfrac{z_{\alpha/2}}{E})^2$ , where p is the prior estimate of the population proportion.

Here we can see that the sample size is inversely proportion withe square of margin of error.

i.e. $n\ \alpha\ \dfrac{1}{E^2}$

By the equation inverse variation, we have

$n_1E_1^2=n_2E_2^2$

Given : $E_1=0.05$ $n_1=1000$

$E_2=0.025$

Then, we have

$(1000)(0.05)^2=n_2(0.025)^2\\\\\Rightarrow\ 2.5=0.000625n_2\\\\\Rightarrow\ n_2=\dfrac{2.5}{0.000625}=4000$

Hence, the sample size will now have to be 4000.

500 people are surveyed and asked to check the boxes that apply to them.

motikmotik

Answer:

1. A Venn diagram is attached. The amount of people that have health insurance and is confident about the economy is 287.

2. The amount of people that have health insurance and is not confident about the economy is 116.

3. The amount of people that have health insurance or is confident about the economy is 437.

Step-by-step explanation:

1) Using sets theory, we know:

U: 500 people surveyed

A: people who is confident in the economy

B: people that have health insurance

A' and B': people who is not confident in the economy and don't have health insurance.

A=321

B=403

A' and B' =63

In the attached picture we can see a Venn diagram that represents the situation. In order to obtain the intersection of both sets A∩B, we calculate:

(321 - x) + (403 - x) + x + 63 = 500

321 - x + 403 - x + x + 63 +x -500 = 500 +x - 500

321 + 403 + 63 -500 = x

x= 287

2) The amount of people that have health insurance and is not confident about the economy is given by the intersection of the complement of set A and set B:

A' ∩ B can be calculated as:

B - (A ∩ B)= 403 - 287= 116

3) The amount of people that have health insurance or is confident about the economy is given by:

(A∪B) = (A) + (B) - (A ∩ B)

(A∪B) = 321 + 403 - 287= 437

If h:k = 2:5, x:y=3:4 and 2h+x:k+2y = 1:2, find the ratio h-x: k-y.

fenix001 [56]

Given:

$h:k=2:5,x:y=3:4,2h+x:k+2y=1:2$

To find:

$h-x:k-y$

Solution:

We have, $h:k=2:5$ and $x:y=3:4$ .

Let the values of h and k are 2a and 5a respectively.

Let the values of x and y are 3b and 4b respectively.

We have,

$2h+x:k+2y=1:2$

It can be written as

$\dfrac{2h+x}{k+2y}=\dfrac{1}{2}$

$\dfrac{2(2a)+(3b)}{5a+2(4b)}=\dfrac{1}{2}$

$\dfrac{4a+3b}{5a+8b}=\dfrac{1}{2}$

$2(4a+3b)=1(5a+8b)$

On further simplification, we get

$8a+6b=5a+8b$

$8a-5a=8b-6b$

$3a=2b$

$a=\dfrac{2b}{3}$

Now,

$h-x:k-y=\dfrac{h-x}{k-y}$

$h-x:k-y=\dfrac{2-3b}{5a-4b}$

$h-x:k-y=\dfrac{2\times \dfrac{2b}{3}-3b}{5\times \dfrac{2b}{3}-4b}$

$h-x:k-y=\dfrac{\dfrac{4b}{3}-3b}{\dfrac{10b}{3}-4b}$

On further simplification, we get

$h-x:k-y=\dfrac{\dfrac{4b-9b}{3}}{\dfrac{10b-12b}{3}}$

$h-x:k-y=\dfrac{-5b}{-2b}$

$h-x:k-y=\dfrac{5}{2}$

$h-x:k-y=5:2$

Therefore, the ratio $h-x:k-y$ is $5:2$ .

Lois says any addition equation where the addends are all the same can be written as a multiplication equation. Is Lois correct

USPshnik [31]

Lois is correct. This is because multiplication is repeated addition. It means that when your addends are just the same number but added several times, the sum is just equivalent to the product of that number times the number of times it was added. For example, 4+4+4 = 4×3 = 12.
