Answer:

The answer to your question is below

Step-by-step explanation:

Equation 1

                            $sweatshirt = 2 pair of shorts

                                    <u>  w = 2h</u>

Equation 2

$t-shirt = $pair of shorts  - $4

                                <u>      t = h - 4</u>

Equation 3

Total cost = 3 sweatshirts + 2 pairs of shorts + 5 t-shirts

<u>Total cost = 3w + 2h + 5t = 136 </u>

Answer: a system of three equations that represents the price of the clothing are

w = 2h

t = h - 4

3w + 5t + 2h = 136

Step-by-step explanation:

Let w represent the price of one sweatshirt.

Let t represent the price of one T-shirt.

Let h represent the price of one pair of shorts.

The price of a sweatshirt at a local shop is twice the price of a pair of shorts. This means that

w = 2h

The price of a T-shirt at the shop is $4 less than the price of a pair of shorts. This means that

t = h - 4

Brad purchased 3 sweatshirts, 2 pairs of shorts, and 5 T-shirts for a total of $136. This means that

3w + 5t + 2h = 136

sashaice [31]
8 pencils = 1 package
28 children need pencils
Each child gets 4 pencils

28x4 = 112 (pencils needed)

112/8 = 14 packages needed.

Which is greater 15/27 or 16/24
Artemon [7]

Answer:

16/24

Step-by-step explanation:

let’s use the GCF of both which is 3 for 15/27

15/27 divided by 3 is 5/9

for 16/24 the gcf is 8

16/24 / 8 is 2/3

now we have to multiply 2/3 times 3

2/3 times 3 6/3 which is 2

so 16/24 is greater.

A certain geneticist is interested in the proportion of males and females in the population who have a minor blood disorder. In
lord [1]

Answer:

95% confidence interval for the difference between the proportions of males and females who have the blood disorder is [-0.064 , 0.014].

Step-by-step explanation:

We are given that a certain geneticist is interested in the proportion of males and females in the population who have a minor blood disorder.

A random sample of 1000 males, 250 are found to be afflicted, whereas 275 of 1000 females tested appear to have the disorder.

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

                        P.Q. = \frac{(\hat p_1-\hat p_2)-(p_1-p_2)}{\sqrt{\frac{\hat p_1(1-\hat p_1)}{n_1}+ \frac{\hat p_2(1-\hat p_2)}{n_2}} }  ~ N(0,1)

where, \hat p_1 = sample proportion of males having blood disorder= \frac{250}{1000} = 0.25

\hat p_2 = sample proportion of females having blood disorder = \frac{275}{1000} = 0.275

n_1 = sample of males = 1000

n_2 = sample of females = 1000

p_1 = population proportion of males having blood disorder

p_2 = population proportion of females having blood disorder

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

<u>So, 95% confidence interval for the difference between the population proportions, </u><u>(</u>p_1-p_2<u>)</u><u> is ;</u>

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_1-\hat p_2)-(p_1-p_2)}{\sqrt{\frac{\hat p_1(1-\hat p_1)}{n_1}+ \frac{\hat p_2(1-\hat p_2)}{n_2}} } < 1.96) = 0.95

P( -1.96 \times {\sqrt{\frac{\hat p_1(1-\hat p_1)}{n_1}+ \frac{\hat p_2(1-\hat p_2)}{n_2}} } < {(\hat p_1-\hat p_2)-(p_1-p_2)} < 1.96 \times {\sqrt{\frac{\hat p_1(1-\hat p_1)}{n_1}+ \frac{\hat p_2(1-\hat p_2)}{n_2}} } ) = 0.95

P( (\hat p_1-\hat p_2)-1.96 \times {\sqrt{\frac{\hat p_1(1-\hat p_1)}{n_1}+ \frac{\hat p_2(1-\hat p_2)}{n_2}} } < (p_1-p_2) < (\hat p_1-\hat p_2)+1.96 \times {\sqrt{\frac{\hat p_1(1-\hat p_1)}{n_1}+ \frac{\hat p_2(1-\hat p_2)}{n_2}} } ) = 0.95

<u>95% confidence interval for</u> (p_1-p_2) =

[(\hat p_1-\hat p_2)-1.96 \times {\sqrt{\frac{\hat p_1(1-\hat p_1)}{n_1}+ \frac{\hat p_2(1-\hat p_2)}{n_2}} }, (\hat p_1-\hat p_2)+1.96 \times {\sqrt{\frac{\hat p_1(1-\hat p_1)}{n_1}+ \frac{\hat p_2(1-\hat p_2)}{n_2}} }]

= [ (0.25-0.275)-1.96 \times {\sqrt{\frac{0.25(1-0.25)}{1000}+ \frac{0.275(1-0.275)}{1000}} }, (0.25-0.275)+1.96 \times {\sqrt{\frac{0.25(1-0.25)}{1000}+ \frac{0.275(1-0.275)}{1000}} } ]

 = [-0.064 , 0.014]

Therefore, 95% confidence interval for the difference between the proportions of males and females who have the blood disorder is [-0.064 , 0.014].
