Answer:

Option a is right

Step-by-step explanation:

Given that a random sample of 250 men yielded 175 who said they'd ridden a motorcycle at some time in their lives, while a similar sample of 215 women yielded only 43 that had done so.

For proportions since binomial and sample size large we can use  z critical values.

Sample             I            II

N                    250        215     465

X                     175           43    218

p                       0.7          0.2    0.4688

p difference = 0.5

Std error of difference = \sqrt{p(1-p)(\frac{1}{n_1}+  \frac{1}{n_2} }\\=\sqrt{0.4688*0.5312)(\frac{1}{250} + \frac{1}{215} )}\\=0.0409

Margin of error for 99% = 2.58*std error =  0.105

Confidence interval 99% = (0.5±0.105)            

Option a is right.

Write an equation for the translation of x^2+y^2=25 by 7 units left and 2 units down
soldi70 [24.7K]
Your equation is a circle where the center is the origin (0, 0) and the radius is 5. With the translation, the new center is (- 7, - 2). Radius stays the same. 

Your new equation is:

(x + 7)² + (y + 2)² = 25

Factor the trigonometric equation.<br> cos2x-cosx
prisoha [69]

Cos(2x) = cos^2(x) - sin^2(x) - cos(x)

but sin^2(x) = 1 - cos^2(x)

cos(2x) - cos(x) = cos^2(x) - (1 - cos^2(x) ) - cos(x)

cos(2x) - cos(x) = cos^2(x) - 1 + cos^2(x) - cos(x)

cos(2x) - cos(x) = 2cos^2(x) - 1 - cos(x)

cos(2x) - cos(x) = (2cos(x) + 1)(cos(x) - 1)

I think this is what you have asked for.

This person did something wrong and I do not know what it is :( Please help this is for points!
Arlecino [84]

Answer:

0.4 cm

Step-by-step explanation:

The magnifying glass basically zooms into smaller objects. If the insect appears to be 2cm, then it is actually smaller than this. It cannot be 10 cm.

If the scale factor is 5, then this means that the insect is zoomed in 5 times through the magnifying glass. Use the following ratio:

\frac{2}{5}

This fraction can also be seen as division, so:

2÷5=0.4

The insect is actually 0.4 cm long.

(or 4 millimeters)

Solve for × and then find the missing angle in<br> the triangle below. SHOW ALL WORK.
Sholpan [36]

Answer:

x = 4°

Step-by-step explanation:

all angles in a triangle sum up to 180°

6x + 38° + 5x + 8° + 90° = 180 °

11x +136° = 180°

11x = 44°

x = 4°
