The body mass index (BMI) of an individual is a measure used to judge whether or not an individual is overweight. A BMI between 20 and 25 indicated a normal weight. In a survey of 750 men and 750 women, the Gallup organization found that 203 men and 270 women were normal weight. Construct a 95% confidence interval for the difference in proportion of men and women who are normal weight.

Answers

Answer 1

Given Information:

Number of Men having normal weight = 203

Number of Women having normal weight = 270

Sample size of Men = 750

Sample size of Women = 750

Confidence level = 95%

Required Information:

Difference in the proportion of normal weighted Men and Women = ?

Answer:

We are 95% confident that the difference in the proportion of Men and Women who are normal weight is between (0.044, 0.136)

Step-by-step explanation:

The proportion of Men who are normal weight is given by

p₁ = 203/750

p₁ = 0.27

The proportion of Women who are normal weight is given by

p₂ = 270/750

p₂ = 0.36

The difference in the proportion of normal weighted Men and Women is given by

[tex](p_2- p_1) \pm z\cdot \sqrt{\frac{p_1(1-p_1)}{n_1} + \frac{p_2(1-p_2)}{n_2}}[/tex]

Where p₁ and p₂ are the proportion of Men and Women who are normal weighted.

n₁ and n₂ are the sample size of Men and Women.  

z is the value of z-score corresponding to 95% confidence level and is given by

[tex]z_{\alpha/2} = 1 - 0.95 = 0.05/2 = 0.025\\\\z_{0.025} = 1.96[/tex]

So we have z-score of 1.96 corresponding to confidence level of 95%

 So the above equation becomes

[tex](p_2- p_1) \pm z\cdot \sqrt{\frac{p_1(1-p_1)}{n_1} + \frac{p_2(1-p_2)}{n_2}}\\\\(0.36- 0.27) \pm 1.96\cdot \sqrt{\frac{0.27(1-0.27)}{750} + \frac{0.36(1-0.36)}{750}}\\\\0.09\pm 1.96\cdot (0.0238) \\\\0.09\pm 0.046 \\\\Lower \: limit = 0.09 - 0.046 = 0.044\\\\Upper \: limit = 0.09 + 0.046 = 0.136\\\\(0.044, \: 0.136)[/tex]

Therefore, we are 95% confident that the difference in the proportion of Men and Women who are normal weight is between (0.044, 0.136)

How to find  the value of z-score?

In the z-table find the probability of 0.025 and note down the value of that row it would be 1.9 and the value of column would be 0.06, therefore, the z-score is 1.9+0.06 = 1.96

PLZ HELP WILL RATE BRAINLIEST REMEMBER IT HAS 5 DIGITS

Answers

Answer:

The number: 13,226

Step-by-step explanation:

1. The smallest 5-digit number possibile is: 10,000

2. The smallest 5-digit number being odd should be: 10,001

3. All factors of 6 are {1, 2, 3, 6} so that the smallest possible way to arrange these numbers would be: 11,236

4.  Now this number contains 3 prime numbers, 2 being {2 and 3}. If we were to consider another prime number, still being a factor of 6, that would be: 2. That would mean instead of the 1 being the second digit of the value 11,236 it could be 2: 12,236.

5. The digit in the thousands place (2) should be greater than the digit in the tens place (3). Let's swap these digits for now so that condition is satisfied: 13,226. 2 is the only number that has a number greater than it, besides 1, but 1 can't be a digit in the tenth place as it would make a greater 5 digit-number. Thus, provided the conditions are still satisfied, the number 13,226 is the smallest number possible.

This study is a(n): A) matched pairs design. B) randomized block design. C) nonrandomized experiment. D) observational study. E) completely randomized experiment.

Answers

Answer:

D. Observational Study

Explanation:

An observational  study is one in which all the participants are subjected to a common treatment and then compared to people who did not receive the same treatment. This is the case with the students who where subjected to the same treatment; an additional rehearsal session. They are then observed by the professor and compared to those who did not participate in the experiment.  

This is also an example of a cohort observational study. A cohort observational study is one in which all the participants have a common uniting factor. They are made to undergo a treatment and then compared to those who did not receive the treatment. This type of study  is subject to bias because a positive or negative result might be because of other factors not related to the study.

Find two numbers for which the sum is 101 and the difference is 47

Answers

Answer:

74 and 27

Step-by-step explanation:

let x and y be the numbers

x + y =101........eqn 1

x - y = 47.......eqn 2

solve simultaneously

from equation 2, make x the subject

x= 47 + y........eqn 3

put eqn 3 into eqn 1

(47+y) + y = 101

47 + 2y = 101

       2y= 101 - 47

       2y=54

         y= 54/2

         y= 27

put y=27 into eqn 3

x = 47 + 27

x = 74

74 and 27

74+27=101
74–27=47

6 m²/s = 2 (9 m) ds/dt

ds/dt = ⅓ m/s

The Formula of the area of a square: A = bh or A = s^2

~Take derivative of both sides

26, 12, 35, 28, 14
A 28
B. 35
C. 26
D. 14

Answers

Answer: 28

Step-by-step explanation: see prev. explanation

The absolute deviation of 5 from the mean of this data set is 28.

What is absolute deviation?

Absolute deviation is "the distance between each data point to the mean".

According to the question,

The data set is 26, 12, 35, 28, 14

Average of the data set = [tex]\frac{sum of the data value }{Total number of observation}[/tex]

= [tex]\frac{26+12+35+28+14}{5}[/tex]

= [tex]\frac{115}{5}[/tex]

= 23.

Thus, the average of the data set is 23.

In order to find absolute deviation of 5 subtract each data point from the mean.

26 - 23 = |3| = 3

12 - 23  = |-11| = 11

35 - 23 = |12| = 12

28 - 23 = |5| =  5

14 - 23  = |-9| = 9.

Hence, the absolute deviation of 5 is from the mean of the data set is 28.

which number when rounded to the nearest hundredth is 37.62

Answers

Answer:

Answer: B

Step-by-step explanation:

The number given is 37.62. So, by rounding to the nearest hundredths the number becomes 37.612 and this can be determined by using the rules of rounding off to the nearest hundredths.

Given :

Number - 37.62

The following steps can be used to round off any number to the nearest hundredth:

Step 1 - In the thousandths place value analyze that digit to round off a decimal.

Step 2 - If the value is 5 or more than 5 in the thousandth place then the digit is increased by 1 which is at the hundredth place and in the thousandth place digit and thereafter becomes zero.

Now, the number given is 37.62. So, by rounding to the nearest hundredths the number becomes 37.612.

Therefore, the correct option is B) 37.612.

               [tex]f^{l} (x) = \frac{8 x}{3-x}[/tex]

Step-by-step explanation:

Explanation:-

Step(i):-

Given the function

                        [tex]f(x) = \frac{3 x}{8+x}[/tex]

Given function is one-one and onto function

Hence f(x) is bijection function

                   [tex]y = f(x) = \frac{3 x}{8+x}[/tex]

now cross multiplication, we get

            ( 8+x)y = 3 x

             8 y + x y = 3 x

             8 y = 3 x - x y

taking Common 'x' we get

            x (3 - y) = 8 y

                   [tex]x = \frac{8 y}{3-y}[/tex]

Step(ii):-

The inverse function

                 [tex]x = \frac{8 y}{3-y} = f^{l}(y)[/tex]

The inverse function of x

                  [tex]f^{l}(x) = \frac{8 x}{3-x}[/tex]

The cost, in dollars, to produce 1 watt of solar energy is a function of the number of years

2. What is f(4)? What about f (3.5)? What do these values represent in this context?
3. When f(t) = 45, what is t? What does that value of t represent in this context?
4. By what factor did the cost of solar cells change each year? (If you get stuck consider
creating a table.)

Answers

Answer:

In the figure attached, the graph of the function is shown.

1. f(9) ≈ 6 means that at t = 9 (year 1977 + 9 = 1986) the cost to produce 1 watt of solar energy was $6

2. f(4) ≈ 25, which means at year 1981 (=1977 + 4) the cost was $25 per watt  

f(3.5) ≈ 28, which means at half of year 1980 (=1977 + 3.5) the cost was $28 per watt  

3. When f(t) = 45, t is equal to 2, which means that the year wass 1979 (= 1977 + 2)

4. From the graph we can compute the following table:

x  |  y

0  |  80

1   |  60

The general exponential decay formula is:

f(x) = a*b^x

where a is the initial value and b si the decay factor. Replacing with data from the table:

f(0) = a*b^0

80  = a

f(1) = a*b^1

60/80 = b

[tex]y-y_1=\dfrac{y_2-y_1}{x_2-x_1}(x-x_1)[/tex]
