Answer:
b. The margin of error would decrease.
Step-by-step explanation:
Margin of error of a confidence interval:
The margin of error of a confidence interval has the following format:
In which z is related to the confidence level, is the standard deviation of the population and n is the size of the sample.
This means that the margin of error is inversely proportional to the size of the sample, which means that if the sample size increases, the margin of error decreases.
In this question, the sample size is increased, leading to a smaller margin of error. So the correct answer is given by option b.
This is your answer (x-a).g(a)
30 minutes / 3 miles = 10 minutes for 1 mile
7 miles * 10 minutes per mile = 70 minutes total to run 7 miles
It depends on what you are trying to calculate but the most common way I go to find percentage is to multiply by the number in decimal for ie. 50% = .5.
If you are looking for a way to do it quickly in your head I always take find out what 10% is like in the case of 100 it would be 10 so if I want to find 15% I know I can find 10% and if I cut what 10% is in half I will find 5% so likewise if I add what 10%+5% I will end up with 15%. For example, 10% of 100 is 10 half of 10 is 5 and 10+5 equals 15. If you need to find something like 20% or 30% I know that I can find 10% and instead of dividing(cutting it in half) I can multiply by 2 or 3. 10% + 10% =20%
I hope it helps, if you have more questions let me know!
I don't know what the "lowest y-intercept means" so if you can reiterate and clarify I'd appreciate it, but if you understand what you're looking for then I assume that a graph would be helpful. An online useful graphing site I like is desmos. Hope I helped.
