Answer:
120,0.60,100
Step-by-step explanation:
Given that in a certain county in 2013, it was thought that 50% of men 50 years old or older had never been screened for prostate cancer.
Suppose a random sample of 200 of these men shows that 120 of them had never been screened.
a) the observed frequency = 120
b) The observed proportion of men who said they had not been screened
=
c) Expected number in the sample to say they had never been screened if 50% is the correct rate

The answers are 3.19 or -2.19.
In order to complete the square, you must first get the constant to the other side of the equation. WE do that by adding 7 to both sides.
x^2 - x - 7 = 0
x^2 - x = 7
Now we must take half of the x coefficient (-1), which would be -.5. Then we square it and add it to both sides. This is the second step to any completing the square problem.
x^2 - x = 7
x^2 - x + .25 = 7.25
Now that we have done that, the left side will be a perfect square so that, we can factor it.
x^2 - x + .25 = 7.25
(x - .5)^2 = 7.25
After having done that, we can take the square root of both sides
(x - .5)^2 = 7.25
x - .5 = +/-
Now we can take the value of that square root and solve.
x - .5 = +/-
x - .5 = +/-2.69
x = .5 +/- 2.69
And with the + and - both there, we need to do both to get the two answers.
.5 + 2.69 = 3.19
.5 - 2.69 = -2.19
Answer:
0.20 or 20%
Step-by-step explanation:
Brown shoes = 3
Black shoes = 2
Total shoes = 5
Brown pants = 1
Black shoes = 3
Total pants = 4
Brown socks =4
Black socks = 6
Red socks = 2
Total socks = 12
In order to choose shoes, pants and socks of the same color, Teddy can go either all black or all brown. For all black, there is a 2 in 5 chance he gets the right shoes, 3 in 4 chance for pants and 6 in 12 for socks. For all brown, there is a 3 in 5 chance he gets the right shoes, 1 in 4 chance for pants and 4 in 12 for socks.
The probability that he chooses shoes, pants, and socks of the same color is 0.20 or 20%.
