Which equation shows y = 3/4x - 5/2 in standard form?

1 answer:

4 0

The format for a standard form is ax+by=c.
So, we need to get rid of fractions in the equation first.
To do this, multiply both sides by the "LCM" of the fraction denominators..
The LCM of 4 and 2 is 4. So, multiply both sides by 4:
4y = 3x - 10
Now, change it to standard form by subtracting 3x from both sides:
-3x + 4y = -10
This doesn't match any of the choices. Am I wrong or is the choices wrong? idk

i would say you need to divide 45 and 3. then subtract 45 and 15. then with those two numbers you need to put the amount from 45 / 3 on the top and the 15-45 on the bottom. you will get the probability.

A company surveyed 2400 men where 1248 of the men identified themselves as the primary grocery shopper in their household. a) E

polet [3.4K]

Answer:

a) With a confidence level of 98%, the percentage of all males who identify themselves as the primary grocery shopper are between 0.4962 and 0.5438.

b) The lower limit of the confidence interval is higher that 0.43, so if he conduct a hypothesis test, he will find that the data shows evidence to said that the fraction is higher than 43%.

c) $\alpha =1-0.98=0.02$

Step-by-step explanation:

If np' and n(1-p') are higher than 5, a confidence interval for the proportion is calculated as:

$p'-z_{\alpha/2}\sqrt{\frac{p'(1-p')}{n} }\leq p\leq p'+z_{\alpha/2}\sqrt{\frac{p'(1-p')}{n} }$

Where p' is the proportion of the sample, n is the size of the sample, p is the proportion of the population and $z_{\alpha/2}$ is the z-value that let a probability of $\alpha/2$ on the right tail.

Then, a 98% confidence interval for the percentage of all males who identify themselves as the primary grocery shopper can be calculated replacing p' by 0.52, n by 2400, $\alpha$ by 0.02 and $z_{\alpha/2}$ by 2.33

Where p' and $\alpha$ are calculated as:

$p' = \frac{1248}{2400}=0.52\\\alpha =1-0.98=0.02$

So, replacing the values we get:

$0.52-2.33\sqrt{\frac{0.52(1-0.52)}{2400} }\leq p\leq 0.52+2.33\sqrt{\frac{0.52(1-0.52)}{2400} }\\0.52-0.0238\leq p\leq 0.52+0.0238\\0.4962\leq p\leq 0.5438$

With a confidence level of 98%, the percentage of all males who identify themselves as the primary grocery shopper are between 0.4962 and 0.5438.

The lower limit of the confidence interval is higher that 0.43, so if he conduct a hypothesis test, he will find that the data shows evidence to said that the fraction is higher than 43%.

Finally, the level of significance is the probability to reject the null hypothesis given that the null hypothesis is true. It is also the complement of the level of confidence. So, if we create a 98% confidence interval, the level of confidence $1-\alpha$ is equal to 98%
