In politics, marketing, etc. we often want to estimate a percentage or proportion p. One calculation in statistical polling is the margin of error - the largest (reasonable) error that the poll could have. For example, a poll result of 72% with a margin of error of 4% indicates that p is most likely to be between 68% and 76% (72% minus 4% to 72% plus 4%).

In a (made-up) poll, the proportion of people who like dark chocolate more than milk chocolate was 27% with a margin of error of 1.6%. Describe the conclusion about p using an absolute value inequality.

The answer field below uses the symbolic entry option in Mobius. That lets you type in a vertical bar | to represent absolute values. Also, when you type in < and then =, the symbolic entry option will automatically convert that too ≤ . In the same way, if you type in > and then =, the symbolic entry option will automatically convert that to ≥.

Be sure to use decimal numbers in your answer (such as using 0.40 for 40%).

Answers

Answer 1

Answer:

|0.254 ≤ p ≤ 0.286|

Step-by-step explanation:

Given that:

In a made up poll :

Proportion of people who like dark chocolate than milk chocolate (p) = 27%

Margin of Error = 1.6%

Hence,

p ± margin of error

27% ± 1.6%

(27 - 1.6)% ; (27 + 1.6)%

25.4% ; 28.6%

0.254 ; 0.286

Therefore ;

Lower bound = 0.254

Upper bound = 0.286

Expressing p as an absolute value Inequality ;

|0.254 ≤ p ≤ 0.286|

Answers

Answer:

 a - b2

Step-by-step explanation:

STEP  1 :

Trying to factor as a Difference of Squares:

1.1      Factoring:  a-b2  

Theory : A difference of two perfect squares,  A2 - B2  can be factored into  (A+B) • (A-B)

Proof :  (A+B) • (A-B) =

        A2 - AB + BA - B2 =

        A2 - AB + AB - B2 =

        A2 - B2

Note :  AB = BA is the commutative property of multiplication.

Note :  - AB + AB equals zero and is therefore eliminated from the expression.

Check :  a1   is not a square !!

Ruling : Binomial can not be factored as the difference of two perfect squares

Final result :

 a - b2

if 5x+2y=20 and y=10, what is 3x?​

Answers

Answer:

3x = 0

Step-by-step explanation:

Given,

y = 10

now,

5x+2y = 20

or, 5x+2×10=20

or, 5x = 20-20

or, 5x = 0

or, x = 0/5

or, x = 0

Again,

3x = 3×0 =0

If the sun is approximately 1.5 x 1011 meters from Earth, what is the approximate distance from Earth to Mars?


It was supposed to be 10 to the 11 power but it didn’t do it. It out 1011

Answers

Answer:

The distance from Earth to Mars is 8×10¹¹ m.

Step-by-step explanation:

Given that,

The speed of light is 3×10⁸ m/s. The sun is approximately 230,000,000,000 m from Mars. If the sun is approximately 1.5 x 10¹¹ meters from Earth, what is the approximate distance from Earth to Mars.

The sun is approximately 2.3 × 10¹¹ m from Mars.

The sun is approximately 1.5 x 10¹¹ m from Earth.

The distance between from Earth to Mars is :

d = 2.3 × 10¹¹ m - 1.5 x 10¹¹ m

= 8×10¹¹ m

Hence, the distance from Earth to Mars is 8×10¹¹ m.

what is the equation of aline that passes through the point (4,-8) and has a slope of -1/2?

Answers

Answer:

The equation of the line will be:

[tex]y=-\frac{1}{2}x-6[/tex]

Step-by-step explanation:

Given

slope = m = -1/2point (4, -8)

Point slope form:

[tex]y-y_1=m\left(x-x_1\right)[/tex]

substituting the values m = -1/2 and the point (4,-8)

[tex]y-\left(-8\right)=\frac{-1}{2}\left(x-4\right)[/tex]

[tex]y+8=\frac{-1}{2}\left(x-4\right)[/tex]

subtract 8 from both sides

[tex]y+8-8=\frac{-1}{2}\left(x-4\right)-8[/tex]

[tex]y=-\frac{1}{2}x-6[/tex]

Therefore, the equation of the line will be:

[tex]y=-\frac{1}{2}x-6[/tex]

After simplifying the following expression, the coefficient of the m^2 term will be ______.
6mn^2 + 3m^2 + 16m^2 - 6m^2 - 5nm^2
The solution is ______

Answers

Answers:

After simplifying the following expression, the coefficient of the m^2 term will be  13  

The solution is  13m^2 + 6mn^2 - 5nm^2  

====================================================

Explanation:

Highlight all the terms that have m^2 in them and nothing else (so that means no variables of n or n^2)

You should highlight 3m^2, 16m^2 and -6m^2 as the three terms.

The coefficients 3, 16 and -6 combine to 3+16-6 = 13

Meaning that 3m^2+16m^2-6m^2 = 13m^2

----------------

There are no other like terms that pair up.

The 6mn^2 and -5nm^2 are different because the exponent 2 is over a different letter each time. Put another way: mn^2 is not the same as nm^2

So we cannot combine 6mn^2-5nm^2. We leave it as is.

Overall, the entire expression simplifies to 13m^2 + 6mn^2 - 5nm^2

Answers

Answer:

The fabric left over will be [tex]2\frac{5}{6}[/tex]

Step-by-step explanation:

Total fabric bought= [tex]8\frac{3}{4} \ yd[/tex]

Fabric used for skirt = [tex]1\frac{7}{8} \ yd[/tex]

Fabric used for pants = [tex]2\frac{3}{8} \ yd[/tex]

Fabric used for vest = [tex]1\frac{2}{3} \ yd[/tex]

Total fabric used = Fabric used for skirt+Fabric used for pants+Fabric used for vest

Total fabric used=[tex]1\frac{7}{8}+2\frac{3}{8}+1\frac{2}{3}[/tex]

[tex]=\frac{15}{8}+\frac{19}{8}+\frac{5}{3}\\=\frac{15*3+19*3+5*8}{24}\\=\frac{45+57+40}{24}\\=\frac{142}{24} \\=\frac{71}{12}[/tex]

So, Total fabric used = [tex]\frac{71}{12}[/tex]

Total Fabric left= Total fabric bought-Total fabric used

Total Fabric left=[tex]8\frac{3}{4}-\frac{71}{12}[/tex]

[tex]=\frac{35}{4}-\frac{71}{12}\\=\frac{35*3-71}{12} \\=\frac{105-71}{12}\\=\frac{34}{12}\\=\frac{17}{6}\\=2\frac{5}{6}[/tex]

So, the fabric left over will be [tex]2\frac{5}{6}[/tex]
