In preparing a report on the economy, we need to estimate the percentage of businesses that plan to hire additional employees in the next 60 days. a) How many randomly selected employers must we contact in order to create an estimate in which we are 95% confident with a margin of error of 9%?
b) Suppose we want to reduce the margin of error to 4%. What sample size will suffice?
c) Why might it not be worth the effort to try to get an interval with a margin of error of 1%?

c.   x=2.4cm

step-by-step explanation:

similar triangles are triangles which have the same shape but not the same size. this means their angle measures are equal but their side lengths are not instead they are proportional. to solve, we will set up a proportion and solve.

a proportion is two equal ratios set equal to each other. we form the ratios by finding corresponding sides (sides which match to each other on both triangles by their position). out ratios will be one side of the small triangle over the corresponding side on the big triangle as shown below:

.

to solve the proportion, we'll cross multiply by multiplying numerator with denominator across the equal sign.

look at the picture.

y-intercept for the function on a picture is 4 → point (0, 4).

y-intercept for the function

is for x = 0. substitute:

y-intercept is 8 → point (0, 8).

step-by-step explanation:

2x + 8
