3. Of 1000 randomly selected cases of lung cancer, 450 resulted in death within 5 years. Calculate a 96% CI on the death rate from lung cancer.

Answers

Answer 1

Answer:

The 96% CI on the death rate from lung cancer is (0.4177, 0.4823).

Step-by-step explanation:

In a sample with a number n of people surveyed with a probability of a success of [tex]\pi[/tex], and a confidence level of [tex]1-\alpha[/tex], we have the following confidence interval of proportions.

[tex]\pi \pm z\sqrt{\frac{\pi(1-\pi)}{n}}[/tex]

In which

z is the z-score that has a p-value of [tex]1 - \frac{\alpha}{2}[/tex].

Of 1000 randomly selected cases of lung cancer, 450 resulted in death within 5 years.

This means that [tex]n = 1000, \pi = \frac{450}{1000} = 0.45[/tex]

96% confidence level

So [tex]\alpha = 0.04[/tex], z is the value of Z that has a p-value of [tex]1 - \frac{0.04}{2} = 0.98[/tex], so [tex]Z = 2.054[/tex].  

The lower limit of this interval is:

[tex]\pi - z\sqrt{\frac{\pi(1-\pi)}{n}} = 0.45 - 2.054\sqrt{\frac{0.45*0.55}{1000}} = 0.4177[/tex]

The upper limit of this interval is:

[tex]\pi + z\sqrt{\frac{\pi(1-\pi)}{n}} = 0.45 + 2.054\sqrt{\frac{0.45*0.55}{1000}} = 0.4823[/tex]

The 96% CI on the death rate from lung cancer is (0.4177, 0.4823).

Factorize (256⁴-1).
Use appropriate identity.

Answers

(256⁴-1)

= (256-1)⁴

Using identity (a-b)⁴ = a⁴−4a³b+6a²b²−4ab³+b⁴

Let a be 256 and b be 1

Then

256⁴−4(256)³(1)+6(256)²(1)²−4(256)(1)³+(1)⁴

After solving

(256²-1)²

(a-b)² = a²-2ab+b²

256²-2×256×1+1²

= (256²-1)(256²+1)

Answer:

Use identity:

a² - b² = (a + b)(a - b)

Consider that:

256 = 2⁸

Now factorize:

256⁴ - 1 = (2⁸)⁴ - 1 = 2³² - 1 = (2¹⁶ - 1)(2¹⁶ + 1) = (2⁸ - 1)(2⁸ + 1)(2¹⁶ + 1) = (2⁴ - 1)(2⁴ + 1)(2⁸ + 1)(2¹⁶ + 1) = (2² - 1)(2² + 1)(2⁴ + 1)(2⁸ + 1)(2¹⁶ + 1) = (2 - 1)(2 + 1)(2² + 1)(2⁴ + 1)(2⁸ + 1)(2¹⁶ + 1)

The sum of 'n' terms of an arithmetic sequence is 4n2+3n. What is the first term, the common difference, and the sequence?

Answers

Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:

If the 2 is an exponent, it should be indicated with a circumflex:  4n^2+3n.

What is the first term?

a₁ = S₁ = 4·1² + 3·1 = 7

:::::

What is the common difference?

a₁ + a₂ = S₂ = 4·2² + 3·2 = 22

a₂ = 22-a₁ = 15

common difference d = a₂ - a₁ = 8

:::::

What is the arithmetic sequence?

The nth term is 7+(n-1)d = 7+(n-1)8 = 8n-1.

a₁ = 8·1-1 = 7

a₂ = 8·2-1 = 15

a₃ = 8·3-1 = 23

Write the equation of the line for a line that passes through (-2,-4) and (-1, -1).

Answers

Answer:

y = 3x+2

Step-by-step explanation:

First find the slope using the slope formula

m= (y2-y1)/(x2-x1)

   = ( -1 - -4)/(-1 - -2)

   = (-1 +4)/ (-1 +2)

   = 3/1

  = 3

The slope intercept formula is

y = mx+b where m is the slope and b is the y intercept

y = 3x+b

Using the point (-1,-1) and substituting into the equation

-1 = 3(-1)+b

-1 = -3+b

-1+3 = b

2 = b

y = 3x+2

Kevin made a business trip of 312.5 miles. He averages 60 mph for the first part of the trip and 55 mph for the second part. If the trip took a 5.5 hours how long did he travel at each rate

Answers

Answer:

Kevin travels for 2 hours at 60 mph and 3.5 hours at 55 mph

Step-by-step explanation:

Let's say that Kevin spends x hours going 60 mph and y hours going 55 mph. We can say that the sum of the two parts is 5.5, so x+y = 5.5 . Next, he goes 60 miles per hour for the first part of the trip, so for each hour he goes 60 mph, he travels 60 miles. We can then denote 60 * x as the distance traveled during the first part of his trip as he goes 60 mph for x hours. Similarly, 55 * y denotes the distance Kevin travels during the second part of his trip. His total distance is thus 60 * x + 55 * y = 312.5 miles

We have

x + y = 5.5

60 * x + 55 * y = 312.5

One way we can solve this is to solve for y in the first equation and plug that into the second. Subtracting x from both sides in the first equation, we get

y = 5.5 - x

Plugging that into the second equation, we get

60 * x + 55 * (5.5-x) = 312.5

60 * x + 55 * 5.5 - 55x = 312.5

5x  +302.5 = 312.5

subtract 302.5 from both sides to isolate the x and its coefficient

5x = 10

divide both sides by 5 to solve for x

x = 2

y = 5.5 - x = 5.5 - 2 = 3.5

Therefore, Kevin travels for 2 hours at 60 mph and 3.5 hours at 55 mph

Alexa has saved
2/7
of the cost of her trip to the Caribbean. Estimate how much money she
has left to save.


A.3/4 of the cost
B.1/2 of the cost

C.1 1/4 of the cost

D.1/4 of the cost

Answers

Answer:

A 3/4

Step-by-step explanation:

Set up equation to find the percentage 2/7 equals:

Variable x = percentage

2/7 = x/100

Cross multiply:

2 × 100 = 7 × x

200 = 7x

Divide:

28.57142... = x

About 30% (I rounded to 30% because it is a nice number to use when all other numbers end in 5 or 0)

If Alexa has about 30% saved, she will need to save about 70% more. Find the solution that is closest to 70%.

A is 3/4 which comes out to 75%. So far, this sounds like the best answer. Let's check the others just in case.

B is 1/2, or 50% which isn't as close as A was to 70%.

C is 1 1/4 which means 125% needs to be saved. This would mean Alexa is in debt and hasn't saved any money which is not the case.

D is 1/4, or 25%. The trick here is that she's saved about 30% so 25% is closest, but we are looking for how much more she needs to save.
