The conditional relative frequency table below was generated by column using frequency table data comparing the number of calori

es in a meal to whether the meal was prepared at home or at a restaurant.
A nutritionist attempts to determine an association between where food is prepared and the number of calories the food contains. Which is most likely true?

A. An association cannot be determine because the value 0.55 is similar to the value 0.45
B. There is an association because the value 0.15 is not similar to the value 0.55
C. There is an association because the sum of each column is 1.0.
D. An association cannot ve determined because the sum of the rows going across is not 1.0.

Answer:

B. There is an association because the value 0.15 is not similar to the value 0.55

Step-by-step explanation:

Based on the above picture, for the nutritionist to determine whether there is an association between where food is prepared and the number of calories the food contains, there must be an association between two categorical variables.

The conditions that satisfy whether there exists an association between conditional relative frequencies are:

1. When there is a bigger difference in the conditional relative frequencies, the stronger the association between the variables.

2. When the conditional relative frequencies are nearly equal for all categories, there may be no association between the variables.

For the given conditional relative frequency, we can see that there exists a significant difference between the columns of the table in the picture because 0.15 is significantly different from 0.55 and 0.85 is significantly different from 0.45

We can conclude that there is an association because the value 0.15 is not similar to the value 0.55

Many elementary school students in a school district currently have ear infections. A random sample of children in two different
Marta_Voda [28]

Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:

The summary of the given data includes;

sample size for the first school n_1 = 42

sample size for the second school n_2  = 34

so 16 out of 42 i.e x_1 = 16 and 18 out of 34 i.e x_2 = 18 have ear infection.

the proportion of students with ear infection Is as follows:

\hat p_1 = \dfrac{16}{42} = 0.38095

\hat p_2 = \dfrac{18}{34}  =  0.5294

Since this is a two tailed test , the null and the alternative hypothesis can be computed as :

H_0 :p_1 -p_2 = 0 \\ \\ H_1 : p_1 - p_2 \neq 0

level of significance ∝ = 0.05,

Using the table of standard normal distribution, the value of z that corresponds to the two-tailed probability 0.05 is 1.96. Thus, we will reject the null hypothesis if the value of the test statistics is less than -1.96 or more than 1.96.

The test statistics for the difference in proportion can be achieved by using a pooled sample proportion.

\bar p = \dfrac{x_1 +x_2}{n_1 +n_2}

\bar p = \dfrac{16 +18}{42 +34}

\bar p = \dfrac{34}{76}

\bar p = 0.447368

\bar p + \bar  q = 1 \\ \\ \bar q = 1 -\bar  p \\  \\\bar q = 1 - 0.447368 \\ \\\bar q = 0.552632

The pooled standard error can be computed by using the formula:

S.E = \sqrt{ \dfrac{ \bar p \bar q}{ n_1} +  \dfrac{\bar p \bar p}{n_2} }

S.E = \sqrt{ \dfrac{  0.447368 *  0.552632}{ 42} +  \dfrac{ 0.447368 *  0.447368}{34} }

S.E = \sqrt{ \dfrac{  0.2472298726}{ 42} +  \dfrac{ 0.2001381274}{34} }

S.E = \sqrt{ 0.01177284105}

S.E = 0.1085

The test statistics is ;

z = \dfrac{\hat p_1 - \hat p_2}{S.E}

z = \dfrac{0.38095- 0.5294}{0.1085}

z = \dfrac{-0.14845}{0.1085}

z = - 1.368

Decision Rule: Since the test statistics is greater than the rejection region - 1.96 , we fail to reject the null hypothesis.

Conclusion: There is insufficient evidence to support the claim that a difference exists between the proportions of students who have ear infections at the two schools

3x+4+8x-28=180 what x
Paraphin [41]
The equation simplified (combine like terms) would be 11x+(-24) =180.
Since adding a negative is the same as subtracting a positive, you could also write it as this: 11x-24=180. Next step is isolate the variable, so to do that you need to add 24 to both sides of the equation: 11x-24+24=180+24. This is the same as 11x=204. Now to get only one of the variable, you need to divide both sides by 11. x=18.54 repeating or x=18 6/11. Hope this helped!

Solve for x x squared plus 4X minus 21 equals 0
suter [353]

Answer:

x = -7 and x = 3

Step-by-step explanation:

x² + 4x - 21 = 0 factors as follows:  (x + 7)(x - 3) = 0.

Then x = -7 and x = 3.
