A recent study examined the association between high blood pressure and increased risk of death from cardiovascular disease. The

re were 2676 men with low blood pressure and 3338 men with high blood pressure. In the low-blood-pressure group, 21 men died from cardiovascular disease; in the high-blood-pressure group, 55 died. a. Compute the 95% confidence interval for the difference in proportions. b. Do the study data confirm that death rates are higher among men with high blood pressure? State hypotheses, carry out a significance test, and give your conclusions.

<span>Find the odds of a man with high blood pressure dying from cardiovascular disease. 55 p .0165 3338 = p .0165 .0165 .0168 1 p 1 .0165 .9835

Do the same for a man with low blood pressure. 21 p .0079 2676 = = p .0079 .0079 .00796 1 p 1 .0079 .9921 = = = − − ----->

Calculate the odds ratio with the odds for the high blood pressure group in the numerator. Describe the result in words. HBP LBP odds .0168 odds ratio 2.11 odds .00796 = = = Men with high blood pressure are 2.11 times more likely to die from cardiovascular disease.</span>

If Lylah completes the square for f(x)=x^2-12x+7 in order to find the minimum, she must write f(x) in the general form f(x)=(x-a
Ber [7]
<span>f(x) = x^2 - 12x + 7

First, separate the first two terms from the constant

f(x) = (x^2 - 12x) + 7

Next, half the coefficient of second term in the parenthesis (12x) and square the result. Make sure to subtract outside the parenthesis what you added inside so that the equation stays equal.

f(x) = (x^2 - 12x + 36) + 7 - 36
f(x) = </span><span>(x^2 - 12x + 36) - 29

Now, just factor the trinomial inside the parenthesis, lemme know in a comment if you don't know how to do this and I'll explain.

f(x) = (x(x - 6) -6(x - 6)) - 29
f(x) = (x - 6)^2 - 29

The polynomial is now in vertex form, and the value of a, as you can see, is 6.

Adam is making a rectangular frame. The frame is 24.2 feet long and 16.25 feet wide.
jeka94
Let
b-----> the length of the base of the rectangle
h-----> the length of the width of the rectangle

we know that
Area of the rectangle=b*h
in this problem
b=24.2 ft
h=16.25 ft
so
area=24.2*16.25-----> area=393.25 ft²

the answer is
the area of the frame is
393.25 ft²
