2. The National Safety Council routinely analyzes the benefit of seat belt use on driver safety. Their data showed that among 28

23 drivers not wearing seat belts, 31 died as a result of injuries, and among 7765 drivers wearing seat belts 16 were killed. Test the hypothesis (at 95% confidence) that there is no difference in the proportion of deaths between the 2 groups. What do you conclude? Calculate the margin of error (E) at 95%.

Answer:

We conclude that there is difference in the proportion of deaths between the 2 groups.

Step-by-step explanation:

We are given that among 2823 drivers not wearing seat belts, 31 died as a result of injuries, and among 7765 drivers wearing seat belts 16 were killed.

Let p_1 = <u><em>proportion of deaths when drivers were not wearing seat belts.</em></u>

p_2 = <u><em>proportion of deaths when drivers were wearing seat belts.</em></u>

So, Null Hypothesis, H_0 : p_1=p_2      {means that there is no difference in the proportion of deaths between the 2 groups}

Alternate Hypothesis, H_A : p_1\neq p_2     {means that there is difference in the proportion of deaths between the 2 groups}

The test statistics that would be used here <u>Two-sample z test for proportions;</u>

                          T.S. =  \frac{(\hat p_1-\hat p_2)-(p_1-p_2)}{\sqrt{\frac{\hat p_1(1-\hat p_1)}{n_1}+\frac{\hat p_2(1-\hat p_2)}{n_2} } }  ~ N(0,1)

where, \hat p_1 = sample proportion of deaths when drivers were not wearing seat belts = \frac{31}{2823} = 0.011

\hat p_2 = sample proportion of deaths when drivers were wearing seat belts = \frac{16}{7765} = 0.002

n_1 = sample of drivers not wearing seat belts = 2823

n_2 = sample of drivers wearing seat belts = 7765

So, <u><em>the test statistics</em></u>  =  \frac{(0.011-0.002)-(0)}{\sqrt{\frac{0.011(1-0.011)}{2823}+\frac{0.002(1-0.002)}{7765} } }

                                       =  4.438

The value of z test statistics is 4.438.

<u>Now, at 5% significance level the z table gives critical values of -1.96 and 1.96 for two-tailed test.</u>

Since our test statistic doesn't lie within the range of critical values of z, so we have sufficient evidence to reject our null hypothesis as it will fall in the rejection region due to which <u>we reject our null hypothesis</u>.

Therefore, we conclude that there is difference in the proportion of deaths between the 2 groups.

Also, <u>Margin of error</u> (E) =  1.96 \times \sqrt{\frac{\hat p_1(1-\hat p_1)}{n_1}+\frac{\hat p_2(1-\hat p_2)}{n_2} }

                                        =  1.96 \times \sqrt{\frac{0.011(1-0.011)}{2823}+\frac{0.002(1-0.002)}{7765} }

                                        =  <u>0.00397</u>

Find the area of the regular polygon
olasank [31]

area = 44.0467 \: cm {}^{2}

<h3>step by step explanation </h3>

● area of regular polygon Formulas ,

⟹a = \frac{l^{2}n}{4tan(\frac{\pi }{n)}}

● now finding the area of regular polygon,

⟹\frac{4 {}^{2} \times 8 }{ 4 \: tan \:  \binom{180}{5} }

⟹a =  \frac{128}{4 \times 0.7265}

⟹a = 44.0467 \: cm {}^{2}

PLEASEEE EXPLAIN AND HELP
Firdavs [7]

The length of the unknown sides of the triangles are as follows:

CD = 10√2

AC = 10√2

BC =  10

AB = 10

<h3>Triangle ACD</h3>

ΔACD is a right angle triangle. Therefore, Pythagoras theorem can be used to find the sides of the triangle.

  • c² = a² + b²

where

c = hypotenuse side = AD = 20

a and b are the other 2 legs

lets use trigonometric ratio to find CD,

cos 45 = adjacent / hypotenuse

cos 45 = CD / 20

CD = 1 / √2 × 20

CD = 20 / √2 = 20√2 / 2 = 10√2

20² - (10√2)² = AC²

400 - 100(2)  = AC²

AC² = 200

AC = √200 = 10√2

<h3>Triangle ABC</h3>

ΔABC is a right angle triangle too. Therefore,

  • AB² + BC² = AC²

Using trigonometric ratio,

cos 45 = BC / 10√2

BC = 10√2 × cos 45

BC = 10√2 × 1 / √2

BC = 10√2 / √2 =  10

(10√2)² - 10² = AB²

200 - 100 = AB²

AB² = 100

AB = 10

Which choice represents the expression below as a single exponential
kkurt [141]

Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:

Exponential function represents as x^2 = x * x or 2^3 = 2*2*2 etc.

As per options,

(A) We are unable to write the number 79 as a exponent.

B) We are unbale to write the number 742 as a exponent as well.

(c) We are unable to write the number 73 as a exponent as well.

(d) We are able to write the number 79.79 as exponent (79)^2. Base is 79 and exponent is 2 and it is single exponential expression as base is only one number.
