Half of a number decreased by 8 is 3

AURORKA [14]4 years ago

With the Brainly help you've gotten in the last 15 minutes or so,
you should be able to do this one now.

The mystery number . . . . . . .      M
Half of it . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . .  1/2 M
Half of it decreased by  8 . . .  1/2 M - 8

You said that's  3 .
So the equation you have to solve is

                                      1/2 M - 8  =  3

Add  8  to each side:      1/2 M       =  11

Multiply each side by  2 :      M       =  22

This is easier than the last one we ( I ) did.

3) in clinical trials of Nasonex, 3774 adult and adolescent allergy patients (ages 12 and older) were randomly
Nonamiya [84]

Fun.  I prefer Oxymetazoline.

For the control group we have a headache probability of

c = 368/1671 = .220

For the experimental group we have a headache probability of

e = 494/2013 = .245

The observed difference is

d = e - c = .025

The variance of the difference is

s² = c(1-c)/n₁ + e(1-e)/n₂

so the standard deviation is

s=\sqrt{.220(1-.220)/1671 + .245(1-.245)/2013} = 0.0139

We get a t statistic on the difference of

t = d/s = .025/.0139 = 1.79

We're interested in the one sided test, P(d > 0).  We have enough dfs to assume normality. We look up in the standard normal table

P(z < 1.79) = .96327

so

p = P(z > 1.79) = 1 - .96327  = 0.037 = 3.7%

Answer: That's less that 10% so we have evidence to conclude that headaches are significantly greater in the experimental group.

Three students have already enrolled for a creative writing class. The teacher will cancel the class if there are fewer than 10
JulijaS [17]

Answer:

7, 10 and 15

Step-by-step explanation:

Given

S_1= 3  --- Students already enrolled

Total = 10\ (less)

Required

Determine the additional number of students needed for the teacher not to cancel the class

First, we need to calculate the number of students for the teacher to cancel the class.

Represent this with x.

So, we have:

S_1 + x < Total

Make x the subject

x < Total - S_1

Substitute values for Total and S1

x < 10 - 3

x < 7

This means that if less than 7 additional students come to the class, the teacher will cancel the class.

So, for the teacher not to cancel the class, the students must be 7 or greater (i.e. 7, 8, 9, 10....)

What is the probability that at least 18 of the 50 subscribers in your sample REOFFEND? Find the mean of the sample proportion o
Elena L [17]

Answer: The question has some details missing and incomplete. here is the complete question ; New regulations in Canada require all Internet service providers (ISPs) to send a notice to subscribers who are downloading files illegally asking them to stop. This "notice and notice" system was already in place with Rogers Cable. That company says that prior to these regulations, 67% of its subscribers who received the notice did NOT reoffend. Consider a random sample of 50 of these Rogers subscribers who received a first notice.

a) What is the distribution (or approximate distribution) of the number X of subscribers who reoffend?

b)Find the mean of the sample proportion of subscribers that REOFFENDED. Report to two decimal places:

c)Find the standard deviation of the sample proportion of subscribers that REOFFENDED. Report to three decimal places:

d)Find the z-score for the 18 of the 50 subscribers who reoffended (report to two decimal places)

e)Find the probability that at least 18 of the 50 subscribers reoffended (report to two decimal places)

Step-by-step explanation:

a) Approximate distribution of the number X of subscribers who reoffend is NORMAL, as both np and n(1-p) are greater than 5.

b) n = 50,  67% of its subscribers who received the notice did NOT reoffend = q, therefore p = 1 - q = 1 - 0.67 = 0.3300, p = 0.3300,

here mean of distribution ; μ = np = 16.5

c) standard deviation σ =√(np(1-p)) = 3.325

d) z score =  (X-mean) / SD = (18-16.5) / 3.325=0.45

e) Probability that at least 18 of the 50 subscribers reoffended; P(X>18)  = P(Z>0.45) = 0.33
