Accupril is meant to control hypertension. In clinical trials of Accupril, 2142 subjects were divided into two groups. The 1563

subjects in the experimental group received Accupril. The 579 subjects in the control group received a placebo. Of the 1563 in the experimental group, 61 experienced dizziness as a side effect. Of the 579 subjects in the control group, 15 experienced dizziness as a side effect.
Let p_1 be the true proportion of people who experience dizziness while taking Accupril. Let p_2 be the true proportion of people who experience dizziness but do not take Accupril. Create a 95% confidence interval for p_1 - p_2.
a. (0.006, 0.092)
b. (-0.06, 0.92)
c. (-0.003, 0.029)
d. (-0.04, 0.29)

Answer:

Option C.

Step-by-step explanation:

Given information

n_1=1563 and n_2=579

x_1=61 and x_2=15

Using the given information we get

p_1=\dfrac{x_1}{n_1}=\dfrac{61}{1563}\approx 0.039

p_2=\dfrac{x_2}{n_2}=\dfrac{15}{579}\approx 0.026

The formula for confidence interval for p_1 - p_2 is

C.I.=(p_1-p_2)\pm z*\sqrt{\dfrac{p_1(1-p_1)}{n_1}+\dfrac{p_2(1-p_2)}{n_2}}

From the standard normal table the value of z* at 95% confidence interval = 1.96.

C.I.=(0.039-0.026)\pm (1.96)\sqrt{\dfrac{0.039(1-0.039)}{1563}+\dfrac{0.026(1-0.026)}{579}}

C.I.=0.013\pm (1.96)(0.008)

C.I.=0.013\pm 0.016

C.I.=(0.013-0.016,0.013+0.016)

C.I.=(-0.003,0.029)

The 95% confidence interval for p_1 - p_2. is (-0.003,0.029).

Therefore, the correct option is C.

Would the answer for 36 be $9.88 or $9.75?
ludmilkaskok [199]

total bill before any discounts $13.

she is a student, so she gets 20% off.

she brought an item of clothing, so she gets 5% off.

so she's really getting 20% + 5% off, namely 25% off her bill.

\bf \begin{array}{|c|ll} \cline{1-1} \textit{a\% of b}\\ \cline{1-1} \\ \left( \cfrac{a}{100} \right)\cdot b \\\\ \cline{1-1} \end{array}~\hspace{5em}\stackrel{\textit{25\% of 13}}{\left( \cfrac{25}{100} \right)13\implies 3.25}~\hfill \stackrel{\textit{bill with all discounts}}{13-3.25\implies 9.75}

What should be the paper weight
nata0808 [166]

Answer:

6.25 cm

Step-by-step explanation:

\rho=\dfrac{m}{V} \\\\V_{\text{pyramid}}= A_{\text{base}}\cdot h \cdot \dfrac{1}{3} \\\\1.6=\dfrac{400}{V} \\\\V=120 \cdot h \cdot \dfrac{1}{3} \\\\1.6=\dfrac{400}{40h} \\\\1.6=\dfrac{10}{h} \\\\1.6h=10 \\\\h=\dfrac{10}{1.6}=6.25\text{ cm}

Hope this helps!
