A survey found that 50% of teenagers prefer to watch a movie at a theater over other viewing options. You want to know the estim

ella [17]

Answer:

1. Flip a fair coin four times, with heads representing teenagers who prefer watching a movie at a theater and tails representing those who do not.

2. Pick a card from a deck of standard playing cards four times, with red suits representing those who prefer watching a movie at a theater and black suits representing those who do not.

4. Roll a six-sided die four times, with even numbers representing those who prefer watching a movie at a theater and odd numbers representing those who do not.

Step-by-step explanation:

Basically you need to do something 4 times, with each time having a 50/50 chance.

For 1, it flips the coin 4 times and a coin toss is 50/50

For 2, it pics 4 cards, and the deck of cards has a 50-50 chance of either red or black

For 3, it spins it only 3 times, so is wrong

For 4, it rolls the die 4 times, and even and odd is 50-50

For 5, 0-5 consist of 6 number, while 6-9 is only 4 numbers thus is not 50-50 so is wrong

Graph the linear equation. Find three points that solve the equation, then plot on the graph. -3y=x-6

nata0808 [166]

Answer:

Step-by-step explanation: x - 6

The given equation can be re-written as y = ---------

-3

Arbitrarily choose x = 0. Then:

x - 6 0-6

y = --------- = ----------- = 2, so (0, 2) is a point on the graph which is also the

-3 -3 y-intercept

Arbitrarily choose x = 6. Then y = 0, and (6, 0) is another point on the graph

which happens to be the x-intercept

arbitrarily choose x = 12. Then y = (12 - 6) / (-3) = -2. Then (12, -2) is

another point on the

graph.

Plot (12, -2), (6, 0) and (0, 2). Draw a line through these three points.

A researcher wants to estimate the mean weekly family expenditure on clothing purchases and maintenance. First, she needs to det

Blizzard [7]

Answer: C. 461

Step-by-step explanation:

We know that the formula to find the sample size is given by :-

$n=(\dfrac{z^*\cdot \sigma}{E})^2$

, where $\sigma$ = Population standard deviation from prior study.

E = margin of error.

z* = Critical value.

As per given , we have

$\sigma=125$

E= 15

Significance level : $\alpha=0.01$

Critical value (Two tailed)= $z^*=z_{\alpha/2}=z_{0.005}=2.576$

Now , Required sample size = $n=(\dfrac{(2.576)\cdot 125}{15})^2$

$n=(21.4666666667)^2\\\\ n=460.817777779\approx461$ [Round to next integer]

Hence, the required sample size to be taken is 461.

Correct answer = C. 461

Orin solved an equation and justified his steps as shown in the table.

sergij07 [2.7K]

Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:

Given the equation as

$\frac{3x}{5} -3=12$

apply multiplication property of equality where you multiply every term by 5

$\frac{3x}{5}*5 -3*5=12*5$

3x-15=60------------------apply addition property of equality

3x-15+15=60+15

3x=75--------------------------appy division property of equality by dividing both sides by 3

3x/3=75/3

x=25
