Simplify the following:
((x^2 - 11 x + 30) (x^2 + 6 x + 5))/((x^2 - 25) (x - 5 x - 6))

The factors of 5 that sum to 6 are 5 and 1. So, x^2 + 6 x + 5 = (x + 5) (x + 1):
((x + 5) (x + 1) (x^2 - 11 x + 30))/((x^2 - 25) (x - 5 x - 6))

The factors of 30 that sum to -11 are -5 and -6. So, x^2 - 11 x + 30 = (x - 5) (x - 6):
((x - 5) (x - 6) (x + 5) (x + 1))/((x^2 - 25) (x - 5 x - 6))

x - 5 x = -4 x:
((x - 5) (x - 6) (x + 5) (x + 1))/((x^2 - 25) (-4 x - 6))

Factor -2 out of -4 x - 6:
((x - 5) (x - 6) (x + 5) (x + 1))/(-2 (2 x + 3) (x^2 - 25))

x^2 - 25 = x^2 - 5^2:
((x - 5) (x - 6) (x + 5) (x + 1))/(-2 (x^2 - 5^2) (2 x + 3))

Factor the difference of two squares. x^2 - 5^2 = (x - 5) (x + 5):
((x - 5) (x - 6) (x + 5) (x + 1))/(-2(x - 5) (x + 5) (2 x + 3))

((x - 5) (x - 6) (x + 5) (x + 1))/((x - 5) (x + 5) (-2) (2 x + 3)) = ((x - 5) (x + 5))/((x - 5) (x + 5))×((x - 6) (x + 1))/(-2 (2 x + 3)) = ((x - 6) (x + 1))/(-2 (2 x + 3)):
((x - 6) (x + 1))/(-2 (2 x + 3))

Multiply numerator and denominator of ((x - 6) (x + 1))/(-2 (2 x + 3)) by -1:

Answer: (-(x - 6) (x + 1))/(2 (2 x + 3))

sergejj [24]

Solution :

a). The point estimate of proportion of college graduates among women who work at home,

$\hat p =\frac{166}{506}$

  = 0.3281

99.5% confidence interval

$=\left( \hat p \pm Z_{0.005/2} \sqrt{\frac{\hat p (1- \hat p)}{n}} \right)$

$=\left( 0.3281 \pm 2.81 \sqrt{\frac{0.3281 \times  (1- 0.3281)}{506}} \right)$

$=(0.3281 \pm 0.0586)$

$=(0.2695, 0.3867)$
