<h3>Answer: x^2+3x-4</h3>

=============================================

Explanation:

You can use the FOIL rule to expand out (x+4)(x-1), but here's another way you could do it.

Let y = x+4

This means we replace (x+4) with y to get y(x-1)

Distribute the y term through to get yx-y which can be written as x(y) - 1(y)

After this, replace y with x+4 getting x(x+4)-1(x+4)

Distribute a second time and simplify like so

x(x+4)-1(x+4)

x^2+4x-1x-4

x^2+3x-4

Biologists were studying the proportions of cats that had spotted markings on their fur in two populations of cats, C and F. An

alexandr1967 [171]

Answer:

If the proportions of all cats with spotted markings is the same for both populations, the probability of observing a sample difference of at least 0.62 is 0.01.

Step-by-step explanation:

p-value is the probability of observing a result which is at least as extreme as we calculated in our actual workings, assuming the Null hypothesis to be true.

The calculate p-value is 0.01. In the question statement we are given that the alternate hypothesis is:

"Population Proportions are not equal"

Since, Null and Alternate Hypothesis are negations of each other, the Null Hypothesis would be:

"Population Proportions are equal"

We assume the null hypothesis to be true, perform the tests on the sample and obtain a result.

The results we obtained is:

The sample difference is 0.62

Fitting all this data, in the definition of p value tell us that:

The probability of obtaining a sample difference of atleast 0.62 is 0.01, if the population proportions are same.

This matches with the option B. Therefore, the correct answer is:

If the proportions of all cats with spotted markings is the same for both populations, the probability of observing a sample difference of at least 0.62 is 0.01.
