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.

andriy [413]

Answer:

W=32

L=70

Step-by-step explanation:

L=2w+6

204=2L+2W

204=2w+2(2w+6)

204=2w+4w+12

192=6w

w=32

L=2(32)+6

L=70

Blood type AB is the rarest blood type, occurring in only 4% of the population in the United States. In Australia, only 1.5% of
Umnica [9.8K]

Answer:

a. X is a binomial random variable with n = 50 and p = 0.04

b. Y is a binomial random variable with n = 40 and p = 0.015

Step-by-step explanation:

Binomial probability distribution

The binomial probability is the probability of exactly x successes on n repeated trials, and X can only have two outcomes.

P(X = x) = C_{n,x}.p^{x}.(1-p)^{n-x}

In which C_{n,x} is the number of different combinations of x objects from a set of n elements, given by the following formula.

C_{n,x} = \frac{n!}{x!(n-x)!}

And p is the probability of X happening.

X: the number of US residents (out of 50) with blood type AB.

Blood type AB is the rarest blood type, occurring in only 4% of the population in the United States

This means that p = 0.04, n = 50

Y: the number of Australians (out of 40) with blood type AB.

In Australia, only 1.5% of the population has blood type AB.

This means that p = 0.015, n = 40

Z: the total number of individuals (out of 90) with blood type AB.

Here

n = 90, p = 0.04*\frac{50}{90} + 0.015*\frac{40}{90} = 0.0289

Which of the following is true about the random variables X, Y, and Z?

Options a and b are true, while c is false.

What is the equation of the parabola with a vertex at (-2, 3) and a focus at (-2, 0)? Does it open upward or downward?
rodikova [14]
Refer to the diagram shown below.

The distance, d, from the focus to a point P (x,y) is equal to the distance from the directrix to P.
Therefore
d² = (6 - y)²
     = (x + 2)² + y²
That is,
36 - 12y + y² = (x + 2)² + y²
12y = -(x + 2)² + 36

The equation of the parabola is
y = -(1/12)(x + 2)² + 3
It may be written as
-12(y - 3) = (x + 2)²

The leading coefficient -1/12 is negative, therefore the curve opens downward.

Answer:
The equation is (x + 2)² = -12(y - 3).
The curve opens downward.
