A researcher wants to test the claim that the proportion of men and women who exercise regularly is not the same. He finds that

42 of 65 randomly selected men and 34 of 52 randomly selected women report exercising regularly. A 90% confidence interval for the difference in population proportions is (−0.154, 0.138).
1. Which of the statements gives the correct outcome of the researcher's test of the claim?
A) Because the confidence interval includes zero, the researcher can conclude the proportion of men and women who exercise regularly is the same.
B) Because the confidence interval includes zero, the researcher can conclude the proportion of men and women who exercise regularly may be the same.
C) Because the confidence interval includes zero, the researcher can conclude the proportion of men and women who exercise regularly is different.
D) Because the confidence interval includes more positive than negative values, the researcher can conclude that a greater proportion of men than women exercise regularly.
E) The researcher cannot draw a conclusion about a claim without performing a significance test.

Answer:

A.Because the confidence interval includes zero, the researcher can conclude the proportion of men and women who exercise regularly is the same.

Step-by-step explanation:

When the null value is contained in the confidence interval we tend to fail to reject the null hypothesis.

Here, the hypothesis according to scenario are

Null hypothesis: The Proportion of men and women who exercise regularly is  same i.e. p1-p2=0.

Alternative hypothesis: The proportion of men and women who exercise regularly is not the same i.e. p1-p2≠0.

The null value here is 0. As the confidence interval is (-0.154,0.138) and it contains 0, so we fail to reject the null hypothesis and conclude that the proportion of men and women who exercise regularly is the same.

Find the difference of(ab+8a+1)-(-6ab+4)
vagabundo [1.1K]
Hey there!

When finding the difference of expressions like these, there's a few things you should keep in mind. 

1. When finding the difference of two polynomials, multiply the polynomial that implied to be "negative" by –1 to expand the problem and make it easier to solve. 

2. You combine terms based on their unknown terms, like x, y, x², ab, etc. You cannot combine the terms x and x², but you can combine the terms 6b and 8b by adding them. 

3. You can rearrange your terms however you see fit. If a polynomial is implied as "positive", you can multiply that entire polynomial by +1 to get rid of the parentheses. 

With all that in mind, you can go ahead and solve for your difference, like so:

(ab+8a+1)-(-6ab+4)

(ab+8a+1) (-1(-6ab+4))

(ab+8a+1) + (6ab-4)

ab+6ab+8a+1-4

7ab+8a-3

7ab+8a-3 will be your difference. 

Hope this helped you out! :-)

Luden [163]

Answer:

£270

Step-by-step explanation:

Works 7.5 hours per shift and there are 5 shifts in a week, hence

hours worked per week = 7.5 × 5 = 37.5

Pay per hour = £7.20, thus

Earnings for a week = 37.5 × 7.20 = £270
