Step-by-step explanation:

use the equation

$roi = \frac{total \: return}{initial \: investment \: value} \times 100\%$

Total return = $67000-$56000

= $11000

Initial investment value = $56000

Answer:

The 95% confidence interval for the difference in the proportion of cancer diagnoses between the two groups is (0.3834, 0.5166).

Step-by-step explanation:

Before building the confidence interval, we need to understand the central limit theorem and subtraction between normal variables.

Central Limit Theorem

The Central Limit Theorem estabilishes that, for a normally distributed random variable X, with mean $\mu$ and standard deviation $\sigma$ , the sampling distribution of the sample means with size n can be approximated to a normal distribution with mean $\mu$ and standard deviation $s = \frac{\sigma}{\sqrt{n}}$ .

For a skewed variable, the Central Limit Theorem can also be applied, as long as n is at least 30.

For a proportion p in a sample of size n, the sampling distribution of the sample proportion will be approximately normal with mean $\mu = p$ and standard deviation $s = \sqrt{\frac{p(1-p)}{n}}$

Subtraction between normal variables:

When two normal variables are subtracted, the mean is the difference of the means, while the standard deviation is the square root of the sum of the variances.

The randomly sampled 400 dogs from homes where an herbicide was used on a regular basis, diagnosing lymphoma in 230 of them.

This means that:

$p_h = \frac{230}{400} = 0.575, s_h = \sqrt{\frac{0.575*0.425}{400}} = 0.0247$

Of 200 dogs randomly sampled from homes where no herbicides were used, only 25 were found to have lymphoma.

This means that:

$p_n = \frac{25}{200} = 0.125, s_n = \sqrt{\frac{0.125*0.875}{200}} = 0.0234$

Distribution of the difference:

$p = p_h - p_n = 0.575 - 0.125 = 0.45$

$s = \sqrt{s_h^2+s_n^2} = \sqrt{0.0247^2 + 0.0234^2} = 0.034$

Confidence interval:

The confidence interval is:

$p \pm zs$

In which

z is the zscore that has a pvalue of $1 - \frac{\alpha}{2}$ .

95% confidence level

So $\alpha = 0.05$ , z is the value of Z that has a pvalue of $1 - \frac{0.05}{2} = 0.975$ , so $Z = 1.96$ .

The lower bound is $0.45 - 1.96(0.034) = 0.3834$

The upper bound is $0.45 + 1.96(0.034) = 0.5166$

The 95% confidence interval for the difference in the proportion of cancer diagnoses between the two groups is (0.3834, 0.5166).

One night Puvi spent 1/3 of his money on dinner and then 1/4 of the remaining money on dessert. He then had just enough left so

arsen [322]

Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:

Cost of two tickets = 2 * 30 = £60

Let the amount with Puvi = £x

Money spent on dinner = (1/3)*x

$= \dfrac{1}{3}x$

$Remaining \ money =x - \dfrac{1}{3}x =\dfrac{3}{3}x-\dfrac{1}{3}x=\dfrac{2}{3}x$

$Money \ spent \ on \ dessert = \dfrac{1}{4} *\dfrac{2}{3}x =\dfrac{1}{6}x\\\\\\$

Total money - money spent on dinner - money spent on dessert = 60

$x -\dfrac{1}{3}x -\dfrac{1}{6}x=60\\\\\\\dfrac{6}{6}x-\dfrac{1*2}{3*2}-\dfrac{1}{6}x =60\\\\\\\dfrac{6}{6}x-\dfrac{2}{6}x-\dfrac{1}{6}x=60\\\\\\\dfrac{6-2-1}{12}x=60\\\\\\\dfrac{3}{12}x=60\\\\\\x=60*\dfrac{12}{3}=60*4=240$

Money that Puvi had at the start of the night = £ 240
