A randomized controlled study was designed to test whether regular drinking of cranberry juice can prevent the recurrence of uri

nary tract infections (UTIs) in women. 150150 women with a urinary tract infection were treated with an antibiotic and then randomly assigned to one of three groups. One group drank cranberry juice concentrate daily for six months; another group took a drink containing Lactobacillus, a lactose‑fermenting bacterium thought to help inhibit the growth of UTI‑causing bacteria, daily for six months; the last group served as the control group and drank neither cranberry juice nor Lactobacillus drinks for six months. After six months, the number of women in each group with recurring symptomatic urinary tract infection (defined as one or more new infections) was recorded. Here are the results.
Outcome
Treatment Recurring UTI No new UTI Total
Cranberry juice 8 42 50
Lactobacilllus 19 30 49
Control 18 32 50

Answer:

1. The chi-squared statistic = 10.36

The degrees of freedom = 17

The p-value for the test = 0.89

2. The range of the p-value from the Chi squared table = 0.75 < p-value < 0.90

Step-by-step explanation:

1. The Chi squared test is given as follows;

\chi ^{2} = \sum \dfrac{\left (Observed - Expected  \right )^{2}}{Expected  }

Therefore,

                              UTI   No UTI    %     Total

Cranberry juice       8           42      84     50

Lactobacillus          19          30       61     49

Control                    18          30      60    50

The chi-squared statistic is given as follows;

\chi ^{2} = \dfrac{\left (8- 18\right )^{2}}{18} +  \dfrac{\left (42 - 30\right )^{2}}{30} = 10.36

The chi-squared statistic = 10.36

The degrees of freedom, df = 18 - 1 = 17 since the all of the expected count have a minimum value of 18

With the aid of the calculator we find the p value as p as follows;

p = 0.9 - \dfrac{10.36 - 10.085}{12.972 - 10.085} \times (0.9 - 0.75)

The p-value for the test = 0.89  

2. The range of the p-value from the Chi squared table is given as follows;

0.75 < p-value < 0.90.

The sum of two integers is 9 and the sum of their squares is 53. Find the integers.
Schach [20]
X + y = 9 Subtract x from both sides.
y = 9 - x

x^2 + y^2 = 53
x^2 + (9 - x)^2 = 53 Remove the brackets.
x^2 + 81 - 18x + x^2 = 53 Collect the like terms on the left.
2x^2 - 18x + 81 = 53 Subtract 53 from both sides.
2x^2 - 18x + 81 - 53 = 0
2x^2 - 18x + 28 = 0 This factors, but you can see it much easier if you pull out 2 as a common factor.
2(x^2 - 9x + 14) = 0
2(x - 2)(x - 7) =0 You could divide by 2 on both sides. But you can also leave it.
x - 2 = 0
x =  2
x - 7 = 0
x = 7
If x = 2 then y = 7
If x = 7 then y = 2

A square pool is surrounded by a paved area that is 2 metres wide. If the area of the paving is 72m2, what is the length of the
likoan [24]

The length of the square pool is 8. 49cm

<h3>How to determine the area</h3>

Note that the formula for finding the area of a square is given as;

Area = length^2

We have

Area = 72 m²

Substitute into the formula

I^2 = 72

Find the square root of both sides

I= √72

I = 8. 49cm

The length of the square pool given as I is 8. 49cm

Thus, the length of the square pool is 8. 49cm

What is the distance between the point (−10, −2)(−10, −2) and the point (−4, −2)(−4, −2) ?
Gnoma [55]
In this case:  x 1 = - 10,  y 1 = - 2;
x 2 = - 4 ,  y 2 = - 2
The distance between the points :
d =  \sqrt{(x 2 - x 1 ) ^{2} + ( y 2 - y 1 ) ^{2} } = \\  =\sqrt{(-4+10) ^{2} +(-2+2) ^{2} } = \\ = \sqrt{6 ^{2}+0 ^{2}  } = \sqrt{36}= 6
Answer: d = 6
