A sample of 375 college students were asked whether they prefer chocolate or vanilla ice cream. 210 of those surveyed said that they prefer vanilla ice cream. Calculate the sample proportion of students who prefer vanilla ice cream.

The sample proportion of students who prefer vanilla ice cream is 0.56.

Step-by-step explanation:

Sample proportion of students who prefer vanilla ice cream:

Sample of 375 students.

Of those, 210 said they prefer vanilla ice cream.

The proportion is:

The sample proportion of students who prefer vanilla ice cream is 0.56.

since your problem is x^4 = 81, what you have to undeo is the "to the fourth power" part.

the inverse (opposite operation) of "to the fourth power" is "to the fourth root".

  (x^4) ^ ¼   = 81 ^ ¼  

  81 = 3^4     so (3 ^ 4) ^ ¼   =   3 ^ 1   = 3

by hand: (3 ^ 4) ^ ¼   =   3 ^ (4 x ¼) = 3 ^ 1   = 3   (when you take a power to a power, multiply the exponents.)

or, do it by calculator. one way of finding the fourth root is to use ^ (1/4)

step-by-step explanation:

the discriminant is 64 + 4*1*12 = 112

this is prime.
