The water works commission needs to know the mean household usage of water by the residents of a small town in gallons per day. They would like the estimate to have a maximum error of 0.1 gallons. A previous study found that for an average family the variance is 5.76 gallons and the mean is 19.5 gallons per day. If they are using a 90% level of confidence, how large of a sample is required to estimate the mean usage of water? Round your answer up to the next integer.

If f(x)=2x-6 and g(x)=3x+9, find (f-g)(x)

In a test for esp (extrasensory perception), a subject is told that cards only the experimenter can see contain either a star, a circle, a wave, or a square. as the experimenter looks at each of 20 cards in turn, the subject names the shape on the card. a subject who is just guessing has probability 0.25 of guessing correctly on each card. a. the count of correct guesses in 20 cards has a binomial distribution. what are n and p? b. what is the mean number of correct guesses in 20 cards for subjects who are just guessing? c. what is the probability of exactly 5 correct guesses in 20 cards if a subject is just guessing?
