Devon wants to write an equation for a line that passes through 2 of the data points he has collected. The points are (8, 5) and

(–12, –9). He writes the equation 7x – 10y = 3. Is this a good model? Explain your reasoning.

<span> If the model is good, then both points will check in the equation. Substituting 8 for </span>x <span>and 5 for </span>y<span> in the equation results in 56 – 50 = 3, which is not true. Therefore, the model is not good. Using (–12, –9) as a check results in –84 + 90 = 3. The constant value in the equation should be 6, not 3. In slope-intercept form, the </span>y<span>-intercept should be –3/5.</span>

Answer:

The points do not make the equation true.

The correct equation in standard form is

7x – 10y = 6.

The y-intercept should be –3/5.

A clinical trial was conducted to test the effectiveness of the drug zopiclone for treating insomnia in older subjects. Before t
aleksklad [387]

Answer:

We cannot say that the mean wake time are different before and after the treatment, with 98% certainty. So the zopiclone doesn't appear to be effective.

Step-by-step explanation:

The goal of this analysis is to determine if the mean wake time before the treatment is statistically significant. The question informed us the mean wake time before and after the treatment, the number of subjects and the standard deviation of the sample after treatment. So using the formula, we can calculate the confidence interval as following:

IC[\mu ; 98\%] = \overline{y} \pm t_{0.99,n-1}\sqrt{\frac{Var(y)}{n}}

Knowing that t_{0.99,15} = 2.602:

IC[\mu ; 98\%] = 98.9 \pm 2.602\frac{42.3}{4} \Rightarrow 98.9 \pm 27.516

IC[\mu ; 98\%] = [71.387 ; 126,416]

Note that 102.8 \in [71.384 ; 126.416] so we cannot say, with 98% confidence, that the mean wake time before treatment is different than the mean wake time after treatment. So the zopiclone doesn't appear to be effective.
