So,

To find the percentage that the copper comprises, just divide the amount of copper by the total amount of metal in the coin.  In this case, we will change the denominator so that it is 100, which can easily be converted into a percentage, which is really just a fraction out of 100.

\frac{3.75}{5} = \frac{7.50}{10} = \frac{75}{100}

75%

75% of the metal in the coin is copper.

The graph of a function, ƒ( x), is plotted on the coordinate plane. Select two of the following functions that would move the gr
Alex17521 [72]

Answer:

The following functions would move the graph of the function to the right on the coordinate plane.

C) f(x-3)+1

G) f(x-5)

Step-by-step explanation:

We need to check for those functions which shows a horizontal shift of graph to the right.

Translation Rules:

Horizontal shift:

f(x)\rightarrow f(x+c)

If c>0 the function shifts c units to the left.

If c the function shifts c units to the right.

Vertical shift:

f(x)\rightarrow f(x)+c

If c>0 the function shifts c units to the up.

If c the function shifts c units to the down.

Applying rules to identify the translation occuring in each of the given functions.

A) f(x+2)-7

Translation: f(x)\rightarrow f(x+2)-7

The translation shows a shift of 2 units to the left and 7 units down.

B) f(x)-3

Translation: f(x)\rightarrow f(x)-3

The translation shows a shift of 3 units down.

C) f(x-3)+1

Translation: f(x)\rightarrow f(x-3)+1

The translation shows a shift of 3 units to the right and 1 units up.

D) f(x)+4

Translation: f(x)\rightarrow f(x)+4

The translation shows a shift of 4 units up.

F) f(x+6)

Translation: f(x)\rightarrow f(x+6)

The translation shows a shift of 6 units to the left.

G) f(x-5)

Translation: f(x)\rightarrow f(x-5)

The translation shows a shift of 5 units to the right.

lord [1]

Answer:

95% confidence interval for the difference between the proportions of males and females who have the blood disorder is [-0.064 , 0.014].

Step-by-step explanation:

We are given that a certain geneticist is interested in the proportion of males and females in the population who have a minor blood disorder.

A random sample of 1000 males, 250 are found to be afflicted, whereas 275 of 1000 females tested appear to have the disorder.

Firstly, the pivotal quantity for 95% confidence interval for the difference between population proportion is given by;

                        P.Q. = \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 males having blood disorder= \frac{250}{1000} = 0.25

\hat p_2 = sample proportion of females having blood disorder = \frac{275}{1000} = 0.275

n_1 = sample of males = 1000

n_2 = sample of females = 1000

p_1 = population proportion of males having blood disorder

p_2 = population proportion of females having blood disorder

<em>Here for constructing 95% confidence interval we have used Two-sample z proportion statistics.</em>

<u>So, 95% confidence interval for the difference between the population proportions, </u><u>(</u>p_1-p_2<u>)</u><u> is ;</u>

P(-1.96 < N(0,1) < 1.96) = 0.95  {As the critical value of z at 2.5% level

                                             of significance are -1.96 & 1.96}  

P(-1.96 < \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}} } < 1.96) = 0.95

P( -1.96 \times {\sqrt{\frac{\hat p_1(1-\hat p_1)}{n_1}+ \frac{\hat p_2(1-\hat p_2)}{n_2}} } < {(\hat p_1-\hat p_2)-(p_1-p_2)} < 1.96 \times {\sqrt{\frac{\hat p_1(1-\hat p_1)}{n_1}+ \frac{\hat p_2(1-\hat p_2)}{n_2}} } ) = 0.95

P( (\hat p_1-\hat p_2)-1.96 \times {\sqrt{\frac{\hat p_1(1-\hat p_1)}{n_1}+ \frac{\hat p_2(1-\hat p_2)}{n_2}} } < (p_1-p_2) < (\hat p_1-\hat p_2)+1.96 \times {\sqrt{\frac{\hat p_1(1-\hat p_1)}{n_1}+ \frac{\hat p_2(1-\hat p_2)}{n_2}} } ) = 0.95

<u>95% confidence interval for</u> (p_1-p_2) =

[(\hat p_1-\hat p_2)-1.96 \times {\sqrt{\frac{\hat p_1(1-\hat p_1)}{n_1}+ \frac{\hat p_2(1-\hat p_2)}{n_2}} }, (\hat p_1-\hat p_2)+1.96 \times {\sqrt{\frac{\hat p_1(1-\hat p_1)}{n_1}+ \frac{\hat p_2(1-\hat p_2)}{n_2}} }]

= [ (0.25-0.275)-1.96 \times {\sqrt{\frac{0.25(1-0.25)}{1000}+ \frac{0.275(1-0.275)}{1000}} }, (0.25-0.275)+1.96 \times {\sqrt{\frac{0.25(1-0.25)}{1000}+ \frac{0.275(1-0.275)}{1000}} } ]

 = [-0.064 , 0.014]

Therefore, 95% confidence interval for the difference between the proportions of males and females who have the blood disorder is [-0.064 , 0.014].

How much greater is the area of a square with a side length of 9 inches than the area of a circle with a radius of 3 inches?
fredd [130]
The area of the square is 81 sq in, and the area of the circule is (3.14)(3 in)^2, or approx 3.14(9) sq in, or approx  28.27 sq in.

Subtract:  81 sq in - 28.27 sq in = approx. 52.73 sq in.

The difference is 52.73 sq in; the square is larger, the circle smaller.
