Mathematics

Oduvanchick [21]3 years ago

Answer:

 The proportion of smokers was higher in 1990 than in 2000

Step-by-step explanation:

Solution

Recall that,

The total number of sample 1 (n1) = 1000

Total  sample 2 number  (n2) = 2000

The number of favourable events (X1) = 300

The number of favourable events (X2) = 500

so,

p₁ = X₁/n₁ = 300/1000 = 0.3

p₂ = X₂/n₂ =500/2000 =0.25

α = 0.05

We are interested in testing the hypothesis.

The  hypothesis (Null) ....>  H₀ : p₁ = p₂

Alternate hypothesis------ > H₁ : p₁ > p₂

Thus,

P = X₁ + X₂/ n₁ + n₂

P =300 + 500/1000 +2000

P =800/3000

=0.2667

Now,

Z₀ = P₁ - P₂/√ P (1 -P) (1/n₁ + 1/n₂)

Z₀ =  0.3 - 0.25/√0.2667  (1 - 0.2667) (1/1000 + 1/2000)

Z₀ = 0.4999999999999999/√ 0.2667 (0.7333000000000001) (0.001 +0.0005)

Then,

Z₀ = 0.4999999999999999/√0.00029335666500000004

Z₀ = 2.9193

so,

zα/2 = z0.05/2 =z0.025

zα/2 = 1.6448536269514722

Now, we apply the decision rule:

Decision Rule: Reject the null hypothesis if the statistic value test is higher than the critical value 1.6448536269514722

The statistic value, 2.9193 is greater than the critical value 1.6448536269514722,  then we will reject the null hypothesis.

Therefore, the proportion of smokers was higher in 1990 than in 2000

“what is the equation of a conic with vertices (-9,3) and (7,3) and foci (-5,3) and (3,3)”
iragen [17]

This is an ellipse.

Equation of an ellipse: \frac{x^2}{a^2}+\frac{y^2}{b^2}=1

Let's find the center point first. We can do this by finding out the midpoint between the vertices or the foci.

(-9+7)/2=-1

Center: (-1,3)

Now we need to find a and b (length along x and length along y).

We know "a". It is the distance between the center and the right or left bound.

a=7-(-1)=8

To find out "b", first see that...

b^2=a^2-(distance from center to foci)^2

foci distance=3-(-1)=4

b^2=8^2-4^2

b^2=64-16

b^2=48

b=4√3

answer: \frac{(x+1)^2}{64}+\frac{(y-3)^2}{48}=1
