Answer:

Yes, there is enough evidence to say the proportions are the same.

Step-by-step explanation:

Null hypothesis: The proportions are the same.

Alternate hypothesis: The proportions are not the same.

Data given:

p1 = 51% = 0.51

n1 = 200

p2 = 48% = 0.48

n2 = 150

pooled proportion (p) = (n1p1 + n2p2) ÷ (n1 + n2) = (200×0.51 + 150×0.48) ÷ (200 + 150) = 174 ÷ 350 = 0.497

Test statistic (z) = (p1 - p2) ÷ sqrt[p(1-p)(1/n1 + 1/n2) = (0.51 - 0.48) ÷ sqrt[0.497(1-0.497)(1/200 + 1/150)] = 0.03 ÷ 0.054 = 0.556

The test is a two-tailed test. At 0.10 significance level the critical values -1.645 and 1.645

Conclusion:

Fail to reject the null hypothesis because the test statistic 0.556 falls within the region bounded by the critical values.

What is the vertex of the parabola whose equation is y = (x + 1)^2 + 3?
dalvyx [7]
The y-value of the vertex is positive 3, as shown by the +3 on the right hand side of the equation, and the x-value is -1, from the (x+1)^2 (remember, when the number is inside the brackets, flip the sign) The vertex would be (-1, 3) 

If you are looking for a rigorous answer (calculus), we must find the mininum point of the equation: f(x) = (x+1)^2 + 3 f
f'(x) = 2(x+1) = 2x + 2
2x + 2 = 0 
x = -1
f(1) = (-1 + 1)^2 + 3
f(1) = 0 + 3 = 3
(-1, 3)

Each side of a square is increasing at a rate of 6cm/s. At what rate is the area of the square increasing when the area of the s
diamong [38]
Area of a square = length²
A = x²
16 = x²; x = 4
dA/dx = 2x cm²/s
dx/dt = 6 cm/s
Using chain rule:
dA/dt = dA/dx * dx/dt
dA/dt = 2x * 6
dA/dt = 12x
At x = 4,
dA/dt = 12(4) = 48 cm²/s

Is y=10.2x a proportional relationship?​
BabaBlast [244]

Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:

Yes!

The condition needed to get a proportional answer is the y intercept must be 0. No other value can be added on. It doesn't matter that the constant of proportionality is not an integer. x and y will always differ by 10.2 as a multiplied value

Put another way, the fraction y/x will always give 10.2
