If x+9.8=14.7, what is the value of 8(x-3.7?

yulyashka [42]

First find X by subtracting 9.8 from 14.7
X should equal 4.9
than fill in the equation for x
8(4.9-3.7)
you then subtract in the parenthasis
getting the answer of 1.2
finally multiply 1.2x8
Your final answer is 9.6

What is the equation of a line that passes through the point (4, 2) and is perpendicular to the line whose equation is y= x/3−1

Alex_Xolod [135]

Perpendicular lines have slopes that are opposite and reciprocal. Therefore, the line we are looking for has a -3 slope.
y= -3x+b

Now, we can substitute in the point given to find the intercept.
2= -3(4)+b
2= -12+b
b=14

Finally, put in everything we've found to finish the equation.
y= -3x+14

A statistician is testing the null hypothesis that exactly half of all engineers will still be in the profession 10 years after

lana [24]

Answer:

95% confidence interval estimate for the proportion of engineers remaining in the profession is [0.486 , 0.624].

(a) Lower Limit = 0.486

(b) Upper Limit = 0.624

Step-by-step explanation:

We are given that a statistician is testing the null hypothesis that exactly half of all engineers will still be in the profession 10 years after receiving their bachelor's.

She took a random sample of 200 graduates from the class of 1979 and determined their occupations in 1989. She found that 111 persons were still employed primarily as engineers.

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

P.Q. = $\frac{\hat p-p}{\sqrt{\frac{\hat p(1-\hat p)}{n} } }$ ~ N(0,1)

where, $\hat p$ = sample proportion of persons who were still employed primarily as engineers = $\frac{111}{200}$ = 0.555

n = sample of graduates = 200

p = population proportion of engineers

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

So, 95% confidence interval for the population proportion, p is ;

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 < $\frac{\hat p-p}{\sqrt{\frac{\hat p(1-\hat p)}{n} } }$ < 1.96) = 0.95

P( $-1.96 \times {\sqrt{\frac{\hat p(1-\hat p)}{n} } }$ < ${\hat p-p}$ < $1.96 \times {\sqrt{\frac{\hat p(1-\hat p)}{n} } }$ ) = 0.95

P( $\hat p-1.96 \times {\sqrt{\frac{\hat p(1-\hat p)}{n} } }$ < p < $\hat p+1.96 \times {\sqrt{\frac{\hat p(1-\hat p)}{n} } }$ ) = 0.95

<u>95% confidence interval for p</u> = [ $\hat p-1.96 \times {\sqrt{\frac{\hat p(1-\hat p)}{n} } }$ , $\hat p+1.96 \times {\sqrt{\frac{\hat p(1-\hat p)}{n} } }$ ]

= [ $0.555-1.96 \times {\sqrt{\frac{0.555(1-0.555)}{200} } }$ , $0.555+1.96 \times {\sqrt{\frac{0.555(1-0.555)}{200} } }$ ]

= [0.486 , 0.624]

Therefore, 95% confidence interval for the estimate for the proportion of engineers remaining in the profession is [0.486 , 0.624].
