In a recent study, 50 males used a new weight-loss supplement, and 38 of them experienced weight loss after two weeks. In the sa

me study, 100 females used the same supplement, and 85 of them experienced weight loss after two weeks. Fill in the blanks of the statement below to make the statement the most reasonable possible. The new weight-loss supplement was more effective on ? in the study because only % of them failed to lose weight after two weeks, % of the ? whereas failed to lose weight after two weeks. ?

Answer:

The new weight-loss supplement was more effective on females in the study because only 85% of them failed to lose weight after two weeks, 15% of the females whereas failed to lose weight after two weeks.

Step-by-step explanation:

Male proportion that lose weight

p_m=38/50=0.76

Female proportion that lose weight

p_f=85/100=0.85

Proportion of females that failed to lose weight

p_{f2}=1-0.85=0.15

Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:

Males proportion who did not lose weight = 12/50 = 24%

Females proportion who did not lose weight = 15/100 = 15%

Thus we find this was effective for females compared to males.

he new weight-loss supplement was more effective on females in the study because only 15% of them failed to lose weight after two weeks, whereas 24% of the males failed to lose weight after two weeks.

So answer is Females, 15 and 24.

Assume that we want to construct a confidence interval. Do one of the​ following, as​ appropriate:_________.
andreyandreev [35.5K]

Answer:

B. z Subscript alpha divided by 2 zα/2 = 1.96.

Step-by-step explanation:

We are given that we want to construct a confidence interval. For this, the summary statistics for randomly selected weights of newborn​ girls:

n = 236​, \bar x = 30.3 ​hg, s = 7.2 hg. The confidence level is 95​%.

As we can clearly see here that the population standard deviation is unknown and the sample size is also very large.

It has been stated that when the population standard deviation is unknown, we should use t-distribution but since the sample size is very large so we can use z distribution also as it is stated that at very large samples; the t-distribution corresponds to the z-distribution.

Here, \alpha = level of significance = 1 - 0.95 = 0.05 or 5%

         \frac{\alpha}{2}=\frac{0.05}{2} = 0.025 or 2.5%

So, the value of Z_(_\frac{\alpha}{2} _) in the z table is given as 1.96 with a 2.5% level of significance.

Explain how the number of pieces in a whole relates to the size of each piece?
Bumek [7]
Assuming the size of the whole remains constant, as you divide the whole into more pieces, each piece must be smaller. For example, when a whole is divided into four pieces vs nine pieces, 1/4 of the whole is larger than 1/9 of a whole.

Which of the following describes the end behavior over the domain of the square root function graphed above? Please HELP!!!!!!!!
PilotLPTM [1.2K]
Short Answer A
Comment

It's a good thing that the domain is confined or the graph is. That function is undefined if x < - 3 

At exactly x = - 3, f(x) = 0 and that's your starting point.

So look what happens to this graph. If x = 0, f(0) =  y = 3. So we are starting to see that as x get's larger so does f(x). The graph tells us that x = 0 is bigger than x = - 3.

Let's keep on plugging things in.
As x increases to 5, f(5) = 5. x = 5 is larger than x = 0, and f(5) > 3.

One more and then we'll start drawing conclusions. If x = 9 then f(9) = y =  6. 
x = 9 is larger than x = 5. f(9) = 6 is just larger than f(5) which is 5

OK I think we should be ready to look at answers. There's nothing there that makes the answer anything but a. Let's find out what the problem is with the rest of the choices.

B
The problem with B is that as x increases, f(x) does not decrease. We didn't find one example of that. So B is wrong.

C
C has exactly the same problem as B. 

D
The second statement in D is incorrect. As x increases f(x) never decreases. No example showed that.

The answer is A <<<< Answer.
