Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:

"First notice that the function is a quadratic and so will have two factors. Since the coefficient of

x 2 is 1, the factors will be of the form:

( x + a ) ( x + b )

We will assume that a and b are integers.

Hence, we need to find a and b such that the product of the factors is equal to the given quadratic function .

Now consder the absoute value of constant term, 3. Since 3 is prime its only factors are 3 and 1. Since the constant term is positive, a and b can only be 3 and 1 or -3 and -1.

Finally observe that the coefficient of x is positive 4 and that the sum of 3 and 1 is positive 4. Thus, a and b must be 3 and 1 (or the other way around, but this makes no difference to our factorisation) "

How do i multiply fractions

Hatshy [7]

Best Answer: <span> to multiply fractions you simply take the denominator of both fractions and multiply them, do the same to the numerator, and you have your answer.
ex.
2 5 10
-- * -- = ----
4 8 32

then, of course, you would need to simplify.

so the answer is

10(/2) 5
-------- = -----
32(/2) 16

To multiply mixed numbers, you need to convert them to improper fractions, multiply and then convert them back to a mixed number. For example:
2 1/2 x 5 1/3 = 5/2 x 16 /3

numerator 5 x 16 = 80 denominator 2 x 3 = 6

so now you convert 80/6 into a mixed number

80 / 6 = 13 and 2/6 or, reduced, 13 1/3. </span>

Nataly [62]

Answer:

$(0.582-0.485) - 1.64 \sqrt{\frac{0.582(1-0.582)}{144796} +\frac{0.485(1-0.485)}{211693}}=0.0942$

$(0.582-0.485) + 1.64 \sqrt{\frac{0.582(1-0.582)}{144796} +\frac{0.485(1-0.485)}{211693}}=0.09978$

And the 90% confidence interval would be given (0.0942;0.09978).

We are confident at 90% that the difference between the two proportions is between $0.0942 \leq p_A -p_B \leq 0.09978$

Step-by-step explanation:

Previous concepts

A confidence interval is "a range of values that’s likely to include a population value with a certain degree of confidence. It is often expressed a % whereby a population means lies between an upper and lower interval".

The margin of error is the range of values below and above the sample statistic in a confidence interval.

Normal distribution, is a "probability distribution that is symmetric about the mean, showing that data near the mean are more frequent in occurrence than data far from the mean".

$p_A$ represent the real population proportion female for Biology

$\hat p_A =\frac{84199}{144796}=0.582$ represent the estimated proportion female for biology

$n_A=144796$ is the sample size for A

$p_B$ represent the real population proportion female for calculus AB

$\hat p_B =\frac{102598}{211693}=0.485$ represent the estimated proportion female for Calculus AB

$n_B=211693$ is the sample size required for B

$z$ represent the critical value for the margin of error

The population proportion have the following distribution

$p \sim N(p,\sqrt{\frac{p(1-p)}{n}})$

The confidence interval for the difference of two proportions would be given by this formula

$(\hat p_A -\hat p_B) \pm z_{\alpha/2} \sqrt{\frac{\hat p_A(1-\hat p_A)}{n_A} +\frac{\hat p_B (1-\hat p_B)}{n_B}}$

For the 90% confidence interval the value of $\alpha=1-0.90=0.1$ and $\alpha/2=0.05$ , with that value we can find the quantile required for the interval in the normal standard distribution.
