Autism is a serious and lifelong disability that is characterized by a severely decreased ability to engage in communication and

social interaction. In 1998 citizens in a New Jersey town were concerned about the number of children diagnosed with autism, and a study was undertaken to establish the prevalence in the community. Data from the study are reported below:
Numbers of Children Diagnosed with Autistic Disorder
Age Category (y) Diagnosed with Autistic Disorder Number of Children in Population
3-5 19 3479
6-10 17 5417

Required:
a. Calculate the prevalence rate of autism for these children for the two age categories.
b. Convert the prevalence rate to a rate per 1,000

Answer:

a. Calculate the prevalence rate of autism for these children for the two age categories.

  • 3-5: prevalence rate = 0.55%
  • 6-10: prevalence rate = 0.31%

b. Convert the prevalence rate to a rate per 1,000

  • 3-5: prevalence rate = 5.5 per thousand
  • 6-10: prevalence rate = 3.1 pér thousand

Step-by-step explanation:

Generally prevalence is calculated using the following formula:

(number of people with autism / number of people measured) x 100%

age category

3-5: prevalence rate = (19/3,479) x 100% = 0.55%

6-10: prevalence rate = (17/5,417) x 100% = 0.31%

if you want to convert to a rate per 1,000, allyou need to do is multiply by 1,000 instead of 100

3-5: prevalence rate = (19/3,479) x 1,000 = 5.5

6-10: prevalence rate = (17/5,417) x 1,000 = 3.1

Let logb A= 3; logb C = 2; logb D=5<br> What is the value of logb D^2/C^3A
Ne4ueva [31]

Answer:

The value of given log function is 1 .

Step-by-step explanation:

Given as :

Logb A = 3

Logb C = 2

Logb D = 5

<u>Now from log property </u>

if , Logb x = c    , then  x = b^{c}

So,

Logb A = 3 , then A =  b^{3}

Logb C = 2 , then C =  b^{2}

Logb D = 5 , then D =  b^{5}

Now, According to question

Logb\frac{D^{2}}{C^{3}A}

So, Logb\frac{(b^{5})^{2}}{(b^{2})^{3}\times b^{3}}

Or, Logb\frac{b^{10}}{b^{6}\times b^{3}}

or, Logb\frac{b^{10}}{b^{9}}

Now, since base same So,

log_{b}b^{10-9}

∴ log_{b}b^{1}

<u>Now log property </u>

log_{b}b = 1

Hence The value of given log function is 1 . answer
