Answer:

0.818335 ≤ p ≤ 0.86366

Step-by-step explanation:

Given that:

Sample size (n) = 1000

Positive lung cancer = 841

n(p) = 841, p(p) = 841/1000 = 0.841

n(1 - p) = 1000 - 841 = 159

1 - p = 0.159

95% confidence interval

For a 95% confidence interval : z = 1.96

P ± z√p(1-p) / n

0.841 ± 1.96 * √0.841(0.159) / 1000

0.841 - (1.96 * 0.0115636) = 0.818335344

0.841 + (1.96 * 0.0115636) = 0.863664656

0.818335 ≤ p ≤ 0.86366

An arithmetic sequence has this recursive formula: What is the explicit formula for this sequence? A. an = (–1) + (n – 7)(–4)
tresset_1 [31]

bearing in mind that an explicit form is simply the sequence written as a function of some variables, so we simply simplify and add like-terms.

\bf a_n=(-1)+(n-7)(-4)\implies a_n=-1+(-4n+28)\implies a_n=27-4n

2.5 X 10^5 divided by 1.0 X 10^10
bekas [8.4K]

Answer:

0.000025

Step-by-step explanation:

PEMDAS (Exponets first.)

10^5 = 100,000

10^10 = 10,000,000,000

rewrite

2.5 x 100,000 divided by 1.0 x 10,000,000,000

PEMDAS (multiplication next.)

2.5 x (10^5) = 250,000

1.0 x (10^10) = 10,000,000,000

rewrite.

250,000 divided by 10,000,000,000 = 0.000025

0.000025

faust18 [17]

Answer:

Salena's got to the library first

Step-by-step explanation:

12½ miles = 25/2 miles

2½ miles = 5/2 miles

5¾ miles = 23/4 miles

114 miles = 114 miles

Salena's time of arrival =

if 5/2 miles : 5 minutes

then 25/2 miles : ?

25/2 ÷ 5/2. × 5

25/2 × 2/5 × 5

25 minutes

Justin 's time of arrival=

if 23/4 miles : 12 minutes

25/2 miles : ?

25/2 ÷ 23/4 ×12

25/2 × 4/23 ×12

26 minutes approximately

Brandon 's time of arrival=

if 114 miles : 258 minutes

25/2 miles : ?

25/2 ÷114 ×258

25/2 × 1/114×258

25 × 1/57 × 258

113 minutes approximately
