False it’s a rational number

The answer would be false because the number .8 can be 8/10 but it is rational and you can understand that. It would not be an irrational number.

2.85 as a mixed number
WARRIOR [948]
The number 2.85 can be writen using the fraction 285/100 which is equal to 57/20 when reduced to lowest terms.
It is also equal to 2 17/20 when writen as a mixed number.
You can use the following approximate value(s) for this number:57/20 =~ 2 6/7 (if you admit a error of 0.250627%)2.85 =~ 2 5/6 (if you admit a error of -0.584795%)2.85 =~ 3 (if you admit a error of 5.263158%)

When the population mean and standard deviation are known, what distribution is used for the analysis of the sample?.
Kitty [74]

When the population mean and standard deviation are known, you use the standard normal distribution

<h3>How to determine the distribution?</h3>

There are several probability distributions; these include

  • Normal distribution
  • Poisson distribution
  • Chi square distribution
  • Binomial distribution
  • Etc

Of all these distribution, only the standard normal distribution can be used when the population mean and standard deviation are known,

Note that it is also referred to as the z-distribution

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.  

z_{\alpha/2}=1.64  

And replacing into the confidence interval formula we got:  

(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
