Answer:

\frac{x-6}{x-9}

Step-by-step explanation:

Given

\frac{x^2-2x-24}{x^2-5x-36} ← factor the numerator and denominator

= \frac{(x-6)(x+4)}{(x-9)(x+4)} ← cancel (x + 4 ) on numerator/ denominator

= \frac{x-6}{x-9}

Let n1equals50​, Upper X 1equals30​, n2equals50​, and Upper X 2equals10. Complete parts​ (a) and​ (b) below. a. At the 0.05 leve
Viefleur [7K]

Answer:

Null hypothesis:p_{1} = p_{2}  

Alternative hypothesis:p_{1} \neq p_{2}  

z=\frac{0.6-0.2}{\sqrt{0.4(1-0.4)(\frac{1}{50}+\frac{1}{50})}}=4.082    

p_v =2*P(Z>4.082)=4.46x10^{-5}  

So the p value is a very low value and using any significance level for example \alpha=0.05 always p_v so we can conclude that we have enough evidence to reject the null hypothesis, and we can say the the proportion 1 is significantly different from proportion 2.

Step-by-step explanation:

1) Data given and notation  

X_{1}=30 represent the number of people with a characteristic in 1

X_{2}=10 represent the number of people with a characteristic in 2

n_{1}=50 sample of 1 selected  

n_{2}=50 sample of 2 selected  

p_{1}=\frac{30}{50}=0.6 represent the proportion of people with a characteristic in 1

p_{2}=\frac{10}{50}=0.2 represent the proportion of people with a characteristic in 2

z would represent the statistic (variable of interest)  

p_v represent the value for the test (variable of interest)  

2) Concepts and formulas to use  

We need to conduct a hypothesis in order to check if the proportion 1 is different from proportion 2 , the system of hypothesis would be:  

Null hypothesis:p_{1} = p_{2}  

Alternative hypothesis:p_{1} \neq p_{2}  

We need to apply a z test to compare proportions, and the statistic is given by:  

z=\frac{p_{1}-p_{2}}{\sqrt{\hat p (1-\hat p)(\frac{1}{n_{1}}+\frac{1}{n_{2}})}}   (1)  

Where \hat p=\frac{X_{1}+X_{2}}{n_{1}+n_{2}}=\frac{30+10}{50+50}=0.4  

3) Calculate the statistic  

Replacing in formula (1) the values obtained we got this:  

z=\frac{0.6-0.2}{\sqrt{0.4(1-0.4)(\frac{1}{50}+\frac{1}{50})}}=4.082    

4) Statistical decision

For this case we don't have a significance level provided \alpha, but we can calculate the p value for this test.    

Since is a two sided test the p value would be:  

p_v =2*P(Z>4.082)=4.46x10^{-5}  

So the p value is a very low value and using any significance level for example \alpha=0.05 always p_v so we can conclude that we have enough evidence to reject the null hypothesis, and we can say the the proportion 1 is significantly different from proportion 2.

What is the slope of the line that is parallel to the line whose equation is 4x+y-2=0?
inysia [295]

Answer:

4x+y-4=0

Step-by-step explanation: For an equation to be parallel to another all it needs is the same slope but a different y-intercept. So you can really other equations like 4x+y-3=0, 4x+y-5=0, 4x+y-6=0, etc. can be the answer to your problem.

kirill [66]
7y^2 + 10y + 3

7y^2 + 7y + 3y + 3

(7y^2+7y) + (3y+3)

7y(y+1) + 3(y+1)

(7y+3)(y+1)

So the final answer is <span>(7y+3)(y+1)</span>
