Answer:
B. Yes, the proportion of girls is significantly different from 0.5
Step-by-step explanation:
Given that a clinical trial tests a method designed to increase the probability of conceiving a girl. In the study 340 babies wereborn, and 306 of them were girls.
Sample proportion =
Std error of p =
For sample size large, we find that t distribution almost coincides with z distribution
Hence 99% critical value = 2.58
Margin of error = 2.58*std error = 0.0420
Confidence interval =
=
0.858<p<0.942
Yes, this method is effective becuse lower bound itself is 0.858 i.e. there is 85.8%chance for getting girls in birth
B. Yes, the proportion of girls is significantly different from 0.5
The answer to your question is yes
<span>the question does not present the options, but this
does not interfere with the resolution</span>
we know that
Perimeter of rectangle=2*[W+L]
where
L is the length of rectangle
W is the width of rectangle
Perimeter=18 cm
so
18=2*[W+L]-----> divide by 2------> 9=W+L
Let
x-------> L
y-------> W
then
x+y=9
using a graph tool
see the attached figure
the slope of the line is m=1
the x intercept is the point (9,0)
the y intercept is the point (0,9)
The coordination would be (2,-5)
