A group of marketing students at a large university wants to determine the proportion of first year students who use certain types of social media. The students want their estimate to be within 0.03 of the true proportion with a 95% level of confidence. Two years ago, a similar study determined the proportion to be 0.796. How large of a sample is required
The required sample size is 694.
Given a student wants to make a guess within 0.03 of the true ratio with a 95% confidence level.
Margin of Error, E = 0.03
significance level α=0.05 {95% confidence}
A given estimate of the percentage of population p is p = 0.79.
The critical value for the significance level α = 0.05 is Zc = 1.96. This can be determined using either Excel or a normal probability table.
Use the following formula to calculate the minimum sample size required to estimate the percentage of population p within the required margin of error.
n≥p(1-p)(Zc÷E)²
n=0.796×(1-0.796)(1.96÷0.03)²
n=693.1016
Therefore, the resample sizequired to meet the condition is n ≥ 693.1016 and must be an integer. From this, we conclude that the minimum sample size required is n = 694.

Which function is the inverse of function f if the domain of f is ?
The inverse function of f(x) is [tex]f^{-1}(x) = \sqrt{x - 6}[/tex] and the domain is x > 6
How to determine the inverse function?The function is given as:
f(x) = x^2 + 6
Rewrite as:
y = x^2 + 6
Swap x and y
x = y^2 + 6
Subtract 6 from both sides
y^2 = x - 6
Take the square root
[tex]y = \sqrt{x - 6}[/tex]
Rewrite as:
[tex]f^{-1}(x) = \sqrt{x - 6}[/tex]
Hence, the inverse function of f(x) is [tex]f^{-1}(x) = \sqrt{x - 6}[/tex] and the domain is x > 6

Which of the following is not a true bi-conditional statement?
A. A quadrilateral is a square if and only if it has 4 congruent sides and 4 right angles.
B. Jane goes to the beach if and only if it is a sunny day.
C It is the weekend if and only if today is Saturday or Sunday.
D A number is even if and only if it is divisible by two.
Jane goes to the beach if and only if it is a sunny day.
========================================================
Reason:
A regular conditional statement is in the form "If P, then Q" where P and Q are placeholders for other statements.
For example, we can replace "P" with "it rains" and replace "Q" with "the grass gets wet". This means "If P, then Q" becomes "If it rains, then the grass gets wet".
It's hopefully clear that the example above is a one way street. It points in only one direction. The act of raining leads directly to the grass being wet. However, we cannot go in reverse. If we see the grass is wet, it doesn't mean it rained. Perhaps someone turned on a hose or sprinkler system. P leads to Q, but Q does not lead to P.
In short, all of what is mentioned so far is considered a regular conditional statement. So far we haven't addressed bi-conditional statements.
----------------
Bi-conditional statements are conditionals that work in reverse.
An example would be "If a figure is a square, then it has 4 congruent sides and 4 right angles". That conditional statement works in reverse. Therefore "If a figure has 4 congruent sides and 4 right angles, then the figure is a square" is also true simply by what it means to be a square.
So the format "If P, then Q" can be reversed to "If Q, then P" to have an equivalently true statement. The common practice is to use "if and only if" to help shorten things.
We would have the template "P if and only if Q" which is the same as "Q if and only if P". The order doesn't matter since we can reverse things just fine.
Often you'll find bi-conditional statements when it comes to definitions. The term "weekend" literally means the day is either Saturday or Sunday, which is why choice C is another bi-conditional. A very similar situation applies to choice D as well.
--------------------
We've found that choices A, C and D are bi-conditional statements. They can be ruled out. We're left with choice B.
This is not a bi-conditional. Why not? It's assumed that Jane would go to the beach on a sunny day, but perhaps she enjoys the beach just fine on cloudy days. There's also the fact she could be doing other things on sunny days. The presence of the sun doesn't automatically mean the beach. If you said "It gets warm if and only if it's a sunny day", then I think this is more in line with a bi-conditional.
This is why choice B is the final answer.

The rates of each cyclist are 17mi/h and 20mi/h
What is rate?
Rate is a ratio that compares two different quantities which have different units.
In this comparison, one unit is taken to be a standard unit in which the other is compared with.
Analysis:
Let the speeds of both cyclists be x, x+3
distance travelled by x cyclist = 2x
distance travelled by (x+3) cyclist = 2(x+3)
Total distance = 2x + 2(x+3) = 74 miles
2x +2x +6 = 74

There must be a positive solution for log, so the solution is only x = 1
Answer:
[tex]x=1[/tex]
Step-by-step explanation:
Given:
[tex]\log (3x)+\log(x+4)=\log (15)[/tex]
As the logs have no base, assume that the base is 10.
[tex]\textsf{Apply log Product law}: \quad \log_ax + \log_ay=\log_axy[/tex]
[tex]\implies \log_{10} (3x)+\log_{10}(x+4)=\log_{10} (15)[/tex]
[tex]\implies \log_{10} \left(3x(x+4)\right)=\log_{10} (15)[/tex]
Expand the brackets:
[tex]\implies \log_{10} \left(3x^2+12x\right)=\log_{10} (15)[/tex]
[tex]\textsf{Apply the log Equality law}: \quad \textsf{if }\: \log_ax=\log_ay\:\textsf{ then }\:x=y[/tex]
[tex]\implies 3x^2+12x=15[/tex]
Subtract 15 from both sides:
[tex]\implies 3x^2+12x-15=0[/tex]
Factor out the common term 3:
[tex]\implies 3(x^2+4x-5)=0[/tex]
Divide both sides by 3:
[tex]\implies x^2+4x-5=0[/tex]
Split the middle term:
[tex]\implies x^2+5x-x-5=0[/tex]
Factorize the first two terms and the last two terms separately:
[tex]\implies x(x+5)-1(x+5)=0[/tex]
Factor out the common term (x + 5):
[tex]\implies (x-1)(x+5)=0[/tex]
Therefore:
[tex]x-1=0 \implies x=1[/tex]
[tex]x+5=0 \implies x=-5[/tex]
As logs cannot be taken of negative numbers, [tex]x=-5[/tex] is an extraneous solution. Therefore, the only valid solution is: [tex]x=1[/tex]

A line is perpendicular to the line 3x - 4y= 2 and passes through the point (1, - 2). Which of the following
is an equation of the line?
Answer:
Last option, y = -4/3x - 2/3
Step-by-step explanation:
The equation of the line is written in the slope-intercept form,
y = mx + b
where m represents the slope
number that describes both the direction and the steepness of the line
slope = rise/run
b represents the y-intercept
point where crosses the y-axis
Given:
line 3x - 4y = 2passes through the point (1, - 2)Let change 3x - 4y = 2 into y = mx + b form,
3x - 4y = 2
subtract 3x from both sides,
3x - 3x - 4y = 2 - 3x
- 4y = 2 - 3x
divided both sides by -4 to get y alone,
- 4y / -4 = 2 - 3x / - 4
y = (3x / 4) - (2 / 4)
→ y = (3/4)x - (1/2)
Slope of perpendicular lines to another is the negative reciprocal
(ex. slope of 2 becomes -1/2)
So for y = (3/4)x - (1/2) the slope will be,
slope = -4/3
We need to find b (y-intercept),
we know it passes through point (1, - 2)
a point is (x, y) format
y = -(4/3)x + b
plug in the point (1, - 2),
-2 = -4/3(1) + b
-2 = -4/3 + b
add 4/3 to both sides to get b alone,
-2 + 4/3 = -4/3 + 4/3 + b
-2/3 = b
the perpendicular line equation is,
y = -4/3x - 2/3

One evening 1500 concert tickets were sold for the fair mount jazz festival. tickets cost 20 for covered pavilion seats and $10 for lawn seats total receipts were 23,000 how many tickets of each were sold
A total of 800 tickets for the covered pavilion and 700 tickets for lawn seats were sold, solved using a system of equations.
We assume the number of covered pavilion tickets sold to be x and the number of lawn seat tickets sold to be y.
As a total of 1500 tickets were sold, we can form an equation:
x + y = 1500 ... (i),
as we had only those two types of tickets.
The cost of each covered pavilion ticket = $20.
Hence, the total revenue from covered pavilion tickets = $20x.
The cost of each lawn seat ticket = $10.
Hence, the total revenue from lawn seat tickets = $10y.
The total receipts were said to be $23,000.
Thus, we can represent this as an equation:
20x + 10y = 23000 ...(ii).
Combining (i) and (ii), we get a system of equations:
x + y = 1500 ... (i).
20x + 10y = 23000 ... (ii).
Dividing equation (ii) by 10, we get:
2x + y = 2300 ... (iii).
Subtracting (i) from (iii), we get:
2x + y = 2300.
x + y = 1500.

____________
x = 800.
Substituting x = 800 in (i), we get:
x + y = 1500,
or, 800 + y = 1500,
or, y = 1500 - 800,
or, y = 700.
Thus, a total of 800 tickets for the covered pavilion and 700 tickets for lawn seats were sold, solved using a system of equations.
