4. The results of testing a new drug on 1,000 people with a certain disease found that 510 of them improved when they used the d

rug. Assume these 1,000 people can be regarded
as a random sample from the population of all people with this disease. Based on these results, would it be reasonable to think that more than half of the people with this disease would
improve if they used the new drug? Why or why not?

Answer:

It would not be reasonable to say that  more than half of the people with this disease would  improve if they used the new drug

Step-by-step explanation:

Data provided in the question:

Sample size,  n = 1000

Number of people improved when they used the drug = 510

Thus,

Probability that Number of people improved when they used the drug

= 510 ÷ 1000

= 0.510

Now,

margin of error, E = 2\times\sqrt{\frac{p(1-p)}{n}}

= 2\times\sqrt{\frac{0.510(1-0.510)}{1000}}

= 0.032 = 3.2%

Therefore,

Portion of 0.510 is likely to lie in the 3.2% of the actual value of population

And,

The lower portion can be as small as p - E

= 0.510 - 0.032

= 0.478 i.e 47.8% of the sample

Hence,

It would not be reasonable to say that  more than half of the people with this disease would  improve if they used the new drug

Each day a small business owner sells 200 pizza slices at $3.00 per slice and 85 sandwiches at $2.50 each. Business expenses com
klio [65]

How much are the owner's expenses for 10 days?

10 * 130 = $1300

 

How much money does the owner make selling pizzas per day?

200 * 3 = $600

 

How much money does the owner make selling sandwiches per day?

85 * 2 = $170

 

In one day, the owner sells 600 + 170 = $770 worth of pizza and sandwiches

 

Over the course of ten days, that is 10 * 770 = $7700

 

Profit = revenue - cost = 7700 - 1300 = $6400


There ya go

Answer:

HOPE THIS HELPS

Step-by-step explanation:

Number of students in Mr.Skinner's class who brought lunch from home if there are 20 students in the class=12

Fraction of students who brought lunch from home in Mr. Skinner's class=

Number of students in Ms. Cho's class who brought lunch from home if there are 21 students in the class=14

Fraction of students who brought lunch from home in Ms. Cho's class=

As Siloni is using  two 15-section spinners to simulate randomly selecting students from each class and predicting whether they brought lunch from home or will buy lunch in the cafeteria.

Number of Congruent sectors in each Spinner=15

So, if we represent students from Mr. Skinner's class who brought lunch from home in Spinner having 15 congruent Sectors =

So, if we represent students from Mrs. Cho's class who brought lunch from home in Spinner having 15 congruent Sectors =

Mr Skinner class +1 = Mr's Cho's Class

So Ms Cho's class =One more sector of the Skinner-class spinner will represent bringing lunch from home.

Option A which is One more sector of the Skinner-class spinner will represent bringing lunch from home represents Ms Cho's Class.
