Using the z-distribution, the 90% confidence interval for the difference of proportions is given by: (-0.0534, 0.0434).

<h3>What is the mean and the standard error for the distribution of differences?</h3>

For each sample, the mean and the standard error are given as follows:

  • p_1 = \frac{30}{235} = 0.1277, s_1 = \sqrt{\frac{0.1277(0.8723)}{235}} = 0.0218.
  • p_2 = \frac{39}{294} = 0.1327, s_1 = \sqrt{\frac{0.1327(0.8673)}{294}} = 0.0198.

For the distribution of differences, they are given by:

  • \overline{p} = p_1 - p_2 = 0.1277 - 0.1327 = -0.005.
  • s = \sqrt{s_1^2 + s_2^2} = \sqrt{0.0218^2 + 0.0198^2} = 0.0294

<h3>What is the confidence interval?</h3>

The interval is given by:

\overline{p} \pm zs

In this problem, we have a 90% confidence level, hence\alpha = 0.9, z is the value of Z that has a p-value of \frac{1+0.9}{2} = 0.95, so the critical value is z = 1.645.

Hence the bounds of the interval are:

\overline{p} - zs = -0.005 - 1.645(0.0294) = -0.0534

\overline{p} + zs = -0.005 + 1.645(0.0294) = 0.0434

Can u please answer this question

One Way:
We can change the mixed number to a decimal for comparing.

1\frac{1}{4} m = \frac{5}{4} m = 1.25 m

1.4 m     >    1.25 m
Darren   >     Luke

Darren's jump was higher by (1.4-1.25) 0.15 m

Or another way change the decimal to a fraction and the mixed to an improper fraction too.

1\frac{1}{4} = \frac{5}{4} (Luke)
1.4 = \frac{7}{5}                               (Darren)
We need a common denominator to compare
\frac{5*5}{4*5}       (Luke)
\frac{7*4}{5*4}       (Darren)
\frac{25}{20}          (Luke)
\frac{28}{20}          (Darren)

\frac{28}{20}  >   \frac{25}{20}
        Darren           >            Luke
  
By:
\frac{28}{20} - \frac{25}{20} = \frac{3}{20}
Which is also by 0.15 m
Darren jumps higher and by 0.15 m

Help with num 9 please. thanks​
Alik [6]

Answer:

See Below.

Step-by-step explanation:

We want to show that the function:

f(x) = e^x - e^{-x}

Increases for all values of <em>x</em>.

A function is increasing whenever its derivative is positive.

So, find the derivative of our function:

\displaystyle f'(x) = \frac{d}{dx}\left[e^x - e^{-x}\right]

Differentiate:

\displaystyle f'(x) = e^x - (-e^{-x})

Simplify:

f'(x) = e^x+e^{-x}

Since eˣ is always greater than zero and e⁻ˣ is also always greater than zero, f'(x) is always positive. Hence, the original function increases for all values of <em>x.</em>
