In 2001, one county reported that, among 3132 white women who had babies, 94 were multiple births. There were also 20 multiple b

irths to 606 black women. Does this indicate any racial difference in the likelihood of multiple births? Test an appropriate hypothesis and state your conclusion in context.

Hypothesis:

The ratio of ladies giving multiple birth to total number of women for any race will be the same.

Test:

Ratio of white women giving multiple births = 94 / 3132 = 0.0300

Ratio of black women giving multiple births = 20 / 606 = 0.0330

Conclusion:

There is no racial difference in the likelihood of multiple births. Although we do see a difference in the ratios calculated above, the difference is small enough to be due to sample size difference of white and black women. The smaller number of total black women makes the ratio calculated from this sample have a higher probability to deviate from what is expected. This deviation will account for the difference in probability between both races.

We can see the effects of this small sample size by increasing or decreases the numerator by 1 for black women:

21 / 606 = 0.0347

19 / 606 = 0.0313

This change in the data of one woman produces a very large percentage change in our ratio for black women (5%). Thus despite inaccuracy due to small sample size, our hypothesis is correct.

Which postulate or theorem can be used to
sveticcg [70]

Answer:

AA Similarity Postulate

Step-by-step explanation:

we know that

If two figures are similar, then the ratio of its corresponding sides is proportional and its corresponding angles are congruent

step 1

Verify the proportion of the corresponding sides

\frac{PS}{PQ}=\frac{PT}{PR}

substitute

\frac{45}{20}=\frac{36}{16}

2.25=2.25 ----> is true

Corresponding sides are proportional

Triangle PQR is similar to Triangle PST

That means

Corresponding angles must be congruent

side QR is parallel side ST

and

m\angle PQR=m\angle PST ----> by corresponding angles

m\angle PRQ=m\angle PTS --> by corresponding angles

so

PQR is similar to PST by AA Similarity Postulate
