Many high school students take the AP tests in different subject areas. In 2007, of the 144,796 students who took the biology ex

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 $0.0942 \leq p_A -p_B \leq 0.09978$

Solve for x using the given diagram

blagie [28]

Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:

Look a t the picture.

The triangles on the picture are similar.

Therefore the sides are in proportion:

$\dfrac{8x}{10}=\dfrac{4}{5x}$ <em>cross multiply</em>

$(8x)(5x)=(4)(10)$

$40x^2=40$ <em>divide both sides by 40</em>

$x^2=1\to x=\sqrt1\\\\x=1$

Can somebody help me with this one. It says use the vertical line test to determine which graph represents a function

sineoko [7]

Answer:

Only option C shows a function

Step-by-step explanation:

The vertical line test is a visual way to determine if a curve is a graph of a function or not. A function can only have one output, y, for each unique input, x. This means that a vertical line made in the domain of the function can crosses the curve of the function only once. If it crosses the curve of the function more than once, then the curve is not a function.

In option A, a vertical line would cross two values, so it is not a function.

The curve of option B is a vertical line itself, so a vertical line would intersect an infinite amount of points; then it is not a function.

Option C is a function because a vertical line would only intersect the function's curve (which is a line) once.
