In a certain elementary school, 52% of the students are girls. A sample of 65 students is drawn. Would it be unusual for more th
aksik [14]
P = 52% = 0.52
SE = sqrt(p(1 - p)/n) = sqrt(0.52(1 - 0.52)/65) = sqrt((0.52 x 0.48) / 65) = sqrt(0.00384) = 0.0620

Let x be a random variable representing the percent of girls in the sample, then
P(x > 0.70) = 1 - P(x < 0.70) = 1 - P(z < (0.70 - 0.52) / 0.0620) = 1 - P(z < 2.905) = 1 - 0.99816 = 0.00184

The probability that there will be more than 70% of girls in the sample is 0.00184. Therefore, it will be unusual for more than 70% of them to be girls.

What is the maximum number of times two planes can intersect? What is the minimum number of times they can intersect?
nordsb [41]
The minimum number of times two planes can intersect is zero, because if the planes are parallel to each other, they will never intersect. we can take the example of floor and roof, both are parallel to each other and no intersection. If the two planes are in same plane the maximum number of times they can intersect is infinite for example if we consider a line we can intersect at infinite points.

An element with mass 970 grams decays by 27.7% per minute. How much of the element is remaining after 13 minutes, to the nearest
11Alexandr11 [23.1K]
Every 1 minute, you multiply the mass by 27.7% or 0.277

after 1 minute, you multiply once
after 2 minutes, you multiply twice
3, thrice
etc
so after 13 minutes, you multiply 13 times or 0.277^13

so what is 970g *0.277^13 =?

A circular backyard pool has a diameter of 26 feet and is 4 feet deep. One cubic foot of water has a capacity of approximately 7
klasskru [66]
Find the water volume of the pool.  The formula for a vertical cylinder is V = pi*r^2*h, which here is V = pi(13 ft)^2*(4 ft) = 676*pi cubic feet.

Now convert this 676 cu. ft. to gallons:

Mult (676*pi cu ft) by the conversion factor (7.48 gal) / (1 cu ft):

676*pi cu ft     7.48 gal
--------------- * ------------- = 5056*pi gallons (rounded down from 5056.48 pi)
        1             1 cu ft

The cost of filling the pool will be

5056.48*pi gallons        $3
--------------------------- * ------------- = $48 (to the nearest dollar)
        1                           1000 gal

Find the range of y=3/2cos4x-1
MrRissso [65]

Answer:

Range = [- 2.5, 0.5] = [ - 5/2, 1/2]

Step-by-step explanation:

Smallest value of cos α = - 1,

largest value of cos α = 1.

When cos 4x = - 1,  y=3/2cos4x-1 = 3/2*(-1) - 1 = - 5/2 = - 2 1/2 = - 2.5

When cos 4x = 1,  y=3/2cos4x-1 = 3/2*1 - 1 = 1/2 = 0.5

Range = [- 2.5, 0.5] = [ - 5/2, 1/2]
