Using the z-distribution, a sample of 142,282 should be taken, which is not practical as it is too large of a sample.

What is a z-distribution confidence interval?

The confidence interval is:

[tex]\overline{x} \pm z\frac{\sigma}{\sqrt{n}}[/tex]

The margin of error is:

[tex]M = z\frac{\sigma}{\sqrt{n}}[/tex]

In which:

[tex]\overline{x}[/tex] is the sample mean.z is the critical value.n is the sample size.[tex]\sigma[/tex] is the standard deviation for the population.

Assuming an uniform distribution, the standard deviation is given by:

[tex]S = \sqrt{\frac{(4 - 0)^2}{12}} = 1.1547[/tex]

In this problem, we have a 95% confidence level, hence[tex]\alpha = 0.95[/tex], z is the value of Z that has a p-value of [tex]\frac{1+0.95}{2} = 0.975[/tex], so the critical value is z = 1.96.

The sample size is found solving for n when the margin of error is of M = 0.006, hence:

[tex]M = z\frac{\sigma}{\sqrt{n}}[/tex]

[tex]0.006 = 1.96\frac{1.1547}{\sqrt{n}}[/tex]

[tex]0.006\sqrt{n} = 1.96 \times 1.1547[/tex]

[tex]\sqrt{n} = \frac{1.96 \times 1.1547}{0.006}[/tex]

[tex](\sqrt{n})^2 = \left(\frac{1.96 \times 1.1547}{0.006}\right)^2[/tex]

n =  142,282.

A sample of 142,282 should be taken, which is not practical as it is too large of a sample.

Jen opened a savings account at the bank. The amounts of her first 3 deposits are shown below:
• Deposit 1: $325
• Deposit 2: $280
• Deposit 3: $480
• Deposit 4: ?
How much does she need in the fourth deposit so that her average deposit is $365?

Answers

Answer:$375

Step-by-step explanation: To find the average, we need to add all of the numbers up and divide by the number of numbers in the set. Since there are 4 deposits, to get an average of #365, Jen needs to have deposited 365x4 = $1460 in total. Now, it is pretty easy to find the answer. We add up her 3 deposits: 325+280+480 = $1085 and see that it is still $375(1460 - 1085) short. So, Jen needs to deposit $375 on her fourth deposit to have an average of $365.

The graph of a cosine function has an amplitude of 5, a vertical shift of −1, and a period of 4. These are the only transformations of the parent function.

Use the Sine tool to graph the function.

The first point must be on the midline, and the second point must be a maximum or minimum value on the graph closest to the first point.

Answers

See attachment for the graph of the cosine function f(x) = 5 cos(π/2x) - 1

How to graph the cosine function?

From the question, the given parameters are:

Amplitude, A = 5

Vertical shift, D = -1

Period, T = 4

A cosine function is represented as:

f(x) = A cos(B(x + C)) + D

Where

Amplitude = A

Period = T

Horizontal shift = C

Vertical shift = D

Since the horizontal shift is not stated in the question, we can assume that the horizontal shift is 0

i.e. C = 0

So, the equation of the cosine function becomes

f(x) = A cos(Bx) + D

Calculate the value of B using

B = 2π/T

So, we have:

B = 2π/4

Evaluate

B = π/2

So, we have:

f(x) = A cos(π/2x) + D

Substitute the known values of A and D in the above equation

f(x) = 5 cos(π/2x) - 1

Next, we plot the graph of the cosine function on a graphing tool

For the given coordinates of A, B, C, and D as (-8, 1), (-2, 4), (-3,-1), and (-6, 5), respectively, OD, AB and CD are intersecting lines but are not perpendicular (third option) is the correct assertion.

Reasons for the Choice

Because parallel lines never intersect, the fact that lines AB and CD come to a point proves that they are not parallel. It indicates that they are intersecting lines. (Refer to the attached figure)The location where lines AB and CD intersect is not at a straight angle. As a result, lines AB and CD are not parallel.Because the distances separating the two lines differ, AC and BD are not parallel. As a result, lines AB and CD do indeed intersect, but not at a straight angle. Consequently, despite not being perpendicular, both lines intersect.

Therefore, the lines OD, AB, and CD are intersecting lines but are not perpendicular.

Step-by-step explanation:

1st change the equation to y = mx+b form

In order to change the equation to y = mx+b form subtract the 3x to both sides.
The equation now becomes y = -3x-3

2nd we can either choose values for x such has (-2,-1,0,1,2) and plug in those values into our equation y = -3x-3
For example, if we plug in x= -2 we get y= -3(-2)-3 which becomes y =3. We then plot the point (-2,3) because -2 is our x coordinate and 3 is our y coordinate.

Colby needs to wash the windows on the second floor of a building.
He only has a 12 ft ladder and because of dense shrubbery, he hasto put the base of the ladder 5 feet from the building. How many feet above the ground would the windows need to be in order for Colby to reach them with his 12 ft ladder?

Answers

If the length of ladder is 12 feet then the height of windows from the ground is 10.91 feet.

Given that the length of ladder is 12 feet and the base is 5 feet.

We are required to find the height of the windows from the ground.

When we graph all the things like ladder and all that we will get a right angled triangle.

We can find the height of window by using pythagoras theorem.

Pythagoras theorem says that the square of the hypotenuse is equal to sum of squares of base and perpendicular of right angled triangle.

[tex]H^{2} =P^{2} +B^{2}[/tex]

P=[tex]\sqrt{H^{2} -B^{2} }[/tex]

Height of wall=[tex]\sqrt{12^{2} -5^{2} }[/tex]

=[tex]\sqrt{144-25}[/tex]

=[tex]\sqrt{119}[/tex]

=10.908

After rounding off it will be 10.91 feet.

Hence if the length of ladder is 12 feet then the height of windows from the ground is 10.91 feet.

Based on the requirements for FICA and Medicare tax, the amount to be withheld in March for FiCA is $685.10 and for Medicare is $160.23.

The amount to be withheld in December of FICA is $523.90 and for Medicare is $160.23.

How much is to be withheld for FICA?

In March, the amount to be withheld is:

To find out the amount withheld in December, find out the earnings up to that point:

= $132,600

FICA can only be withheld on the first $130,000 so the amount of FICA In December is:

= 6.2% x ( 11,050 - (132,600 - 130,000))

= $523.90

Suppose you want to have $300,000 for retirement in 25 years. Your account earns 8% interest. How much would you need to deposit in the account each month?

Answers

Using the future value formula, it is found that you would need to deposit $272.95 in the account each month.

What is the future value formula?

It is given by:

[tex]V(n) = P\left[\frac{(1 + r)^{n-1}}{r}\right][/tex]

In which:

P is the payment.n is the number of payments.r is the interest rate.

For this problem, considering that there are monthly compoundings, the parameters are:

r = 0.08/12 = 0.0067, V(n) = 300000, n = 25 x 12 = 300.

Hence we solve for P to find the monthly payment.

[tex]V(n) = P\left[\frac{(1 + r)^{n-1}}{r}\right][/tex]

[tex]300000 = P\left[\frac{(1.0067)^{299}}{0.0067}\right][/tex]

1099.12P = 300000

P  = 300000/1099.12

Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:

The formula to find the volume of a sphere is:

V = 4 π r³

Given that,

diameter ⇒ 7 m

∴ radius = d / 2

  radius ( r ) = 7 / 2 = 3.5 m

Let us find the volume now.

V = 4 π r³

V = 4 π × ( 3.5 )³

V = 4 π × ( 3.5 )³

V = 4 π × 42.875

V = 4 π × 42.88

V = 12.56 ×  42.88

The area of rhombus JKLM is 48 units²

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

Given

Rhombus JKLM,Vertices at J(-2, -4), K(2, 2), L(6, -4), M(2, -10).

To find

The area of rhombus JKLM

Solution

We know that diagonals of rhombus are perpendicular to each other.

Hence its area is half the product of diagonals.

The diagonals are JL and KM and one of them is vertical and the other one horizontal since x- or y-coordinates are equal in pairs.

Let's find the length of diagonals, using the difference of coordinates:

JL = 6 - (-2) = 8 units,KM = 2 - (-10) = 12 units.

Now find the area:

A = JL*KM /2 = 8*12 / 2 = 48 units²

What is the straight-line depreciation method?

The straight-line method is one of the depreciation methods in use by companies to allocate the cost of plants and equipment over their useful lives.

Under the straight-line method, the depreciable amount (cost less residual value) is divided by the estimated useful life.

Other depreciation methods include the unit-of-production, double-declining-balance, and the sum-of-the-years-digit methods.

Data and Calculations:

Equipment cost = $36,100

Residual value = $1,800

Depreciable amount = $34,300 ($36,100 - $1,800)

Estimated useful life = 3 years
