An epidemiologic survey of roller-skating injuries in Metroville, a city with a population of 100,000 (during the midpoint of th

e year), produced the following data for a particular year:
Number of skaters in Metroville during any given month 12,000
Roller-skating injuries in Metroville 600
Total number of residents injured from roller-skating 1,800
Total number of deaths from roller-skating 90
Total number of deaths from all causes 900

The proportional mortality ratio (%) due to roller-skating was:

a. 90/600 × 100
b. 90/100,000 × 100
c. 90/1,800 × 100
d. 90/900 × 100

Answer: c. \dfrac{90}{1800}\times100\%

Step-by-step explanation:

As per given , we have

Total number of residents injured from roller-skating =1,800

Total number of deaths from roller-skating = 90

Formula for Mortality rate : Mortaility\ rate= \dfrac{Deaths\ due \ to\ injury}{Tota\ injuries}

Then, the proportional mortality ratio (%) due to roller-skating was

=\dfrac{90}{1800}\times100\%

= 5%

Hence, the correct answer is c.\dfrac{90}{1800}\times100\%

amid [387]

Answer:

The answer si:  

- 16 servings - 6 oz of salmon

- 24 servings - 9 oz of salmon

- 80 servings - 30 oz of salmon

- 100 servings - 37.5 oz of salmon

1 roll is 8 servings and it is also made of 3oz of smoked salmon. That means that 3oz of smoked salmon is needed fo 8 servings.

Now, let's made some proportions:

16 servings:

3 oz is for 8 servings, how much oz is for 16 servings:

3 : 8 = x : 16

x = 3 · 16 ÷ 8 = 6 oz

24 servings:

3 oz is for 8 servings, how much oz is for 24 servings:

3 : 8 = x : 24

x = 3 · 24 ÷ 8 = 9 oz

80 servings:

3 oz is for 8 servings, how much oz is for 80 servings:

3 : 8 = x : 80

x = 3 · 80 ÷ 8 = 30 oz

100 servings:

3 oz is for 8 servings, how much oz is for 100 servings:

3 : 8 = x : 100

x = 3 · 100 ÷ 8 = 37.5 oz

If f(x)=x/3 -2 and g(x)=3x^2+2x-6 find (f+g)(x)
umka21 [38]

Answer:

(f + g)(x) = 3x² + (7/3)x - 8

Step-by-step explanation:

To find (f + g)(x), you need to add both the f(x) and g(x) equations together.

f(x) = x/3 - 2 ..... which is equal to ... f(x) = (1/3)x - 2

g(x) = 3x² + 2x - 6

(f + g)(x) = ((1/3)x - 2) + (3x² + 2x - 6)          <----- Add both equations

(f + g)(x) = 3x² + (1/3)x + 2x - 2 - 6              <----- Rearrange (2 = 6/3)

(f + g)(x) = 3x² + (7/3)x - 8                           <----- Simplify similar terms

vladimir1956 [14]

Answer:

864.36 boxes

Step-by-step explanation:

In the question above, we are given the following values,

Confidence interval 95%

Since we know the confidence interval, we can find the score.

Z score = 1.96

σ , Standards deviation = 15mm

Margin of error = 1 mm

The formula to use to solve the above question is given as:

No of boxes =[ (z score × standard deviation)/ margin of error]²

No of boxes = [(1.96 × 15)/1]²

= 864.36 boxes

Based on the options above, we can round it up to 97 boxes.
