A sample of 100 people is classified by gender (male/female) and by whether they are registered voters. The sample consists of 8

uysha [10]

Answer:

12

Step-by-step explanation:

Given :

Male Female Total

Registered 60

Non registered 40

Total 20 80

Solution :

N= 100

Formula of expected frequency = $E_{ij}=\frac{T_i \times T_j}{N}$

$E_{ij}$ = expected frequency for the ith row/jth columm.

$T_i$ = total in the ith row

$T_j$ = total in the jth column

N = table grand total.

So, using formula $E_{11}=\frac{T_1 \times T_1}{100}$

$E_{11}=\frac{60 \times 20}{100}$

$E_{11}=12$

$E_{12}=\frac{T_1 \times T_2}{100}$

$E_{12}=\frac{60 \times 80}{100}$

$E_{12}=48$

$E_{21}=\frac{T_2 \times T_1}{100}$

$E_{21}=\frac{40 \times 20}{100}$

$E_{21}=8$

$E_{22}=\frac{T_2 \times T_2}{100}$

$E_{22]=\frac{80 \times 40}{100}$

$E_{22}=32$

Expected frequency table

Male Female Total

Registered 12 48 60

Non registered 8 32 40

Total 20 80

So, the expected frequency for males who are registered voters are $E_{11}=12$

Nostrana [21]

Answer: $14.07\ m$

Step-by-step explanation:

Given

Max is driving at a speed of $42\ mph$

It took him three-quarters of a second i.e. $0.75\ s$

Speed in meter per second is $18.77\ m/s$

Distance is given by

$d=v\times t$

Reaction distance is

$d=18.77\times 0.75=14.07\ m$

Write the equation of a line that is perpendicular to y=-2/7x + 9 and that passes through the point (-4,6) [FP]

siniylev [52]

Answer:

$y=(7/2)x+20$

Step-by-step explanation:

SInce the gradient of the first line is $-2/7$ then the gradien of the perpendicular line is $7/2$.

Therefore by the point slope formula the line that we are looking for is

$y-6=(7/2)(x+4)$

$y=(7/2)x + 20$
