In a randomized controlled trial in Kenya, insecticide treated bednets were tested as a way to reduce malaria. Among 343 infants

using bednets, 15 developed malaria. Among 294 infants not using bednets, 27 developed malaria. Want to use a 0.01 significance level to test the claim that the incidence of malaria is lower for infants using bednets. Find the test statistic

Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:

Given that in a randomized controlled trial in Kenya, insecticide treated bednets were tested as a way to reduce malaria. Among 343 infants using bednets, 15 developed malaria. Among 294 infants not using bednets, 27 developed malaria.

H0: p1=p2

H1: p1 <p2

(one tailed test)

p1 = 15/343:p2 =27/294:

Difference 4.813 %

95% CI 0.9160% to 9.0217%

Chi-squared 5.947

DF  1

Significance level P = 0.0073

Since p <0.01 we reject null hypothesis.

A copy machine makes 253 copies in 5 minutes and 45 seconds. How many copies does it make per minute?
Tomtit [17]

Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:

it makes 253 copies in 5 mins 45 seconds

that is to say, 253 copies in 345 seconds

In 1 minute (60 seconds) it will make X copies.

Lets draft an equation to easily express and simplify the problem.

253 copies = 345 seconds

X copies = 60 seconds

lets cross multiply and solve for X

Theefore:

x * 345 = 254 * 60

345x = 15,240

divide through by 345

x = 15240 / 345

x = 44.17

therefore, the copying machine makes approximately 44 copies per minutes

Please help work this equation
Flauer [41]

Hi!

<u>Given these two equations:</u>

x = y + 8

x + 4 = 2(y + 4)

We want to solve using the substitution method. Knowing that x is equal to y + 8, we can simply plug in 'y + 8' in for x in the second equation, like so:

(y+8)+4=2(y+4)

Combine like terms on both sides:

y+12=2y+8

Subtract y from both sides:

12=y+8

Subtract 8 from both sides:

y=4

Now, we can simply plug the y value in to the first equation, and solve for x:

x=4+8

Simplify:

x=12

<h3>Therefore, x is equal to 12 and y is equal to 4.</h3>

Solve the equation 14y+82=6x-20 for x if y is 25
Leni [432]

Answer:

x= 226/3 or 75.33333333333333333333333333333

Step-by-step explanation:

14y+82=6x-20

y=25

Sub y=25 into 14y+82=6x-20

14y+82=6x-20

14(25)+82=6x-20

Calculate as follows:

14(25)+82=6x-20

350+82=6x-20

432=6x-20

Add twenty to both sides:

432+20=6x-20+20

452=6x-0

452=6x

Divide both sides by 6

452=6x

452/6=6x/6

452/6=x

x= 226/3 or 75.33333333333333333333333333333
