A survey in Men’s Health magazine reported that 39% of cardiologists said that they took vitamin E supplements. To see if this i

s still true, a researcher randomly selected 100 cardiologists and found that 36 said that they took vitamin E supplements. At α = 0.05, test the claim that 39% of the cardiologists took vitamin E supplements. A recent study said that taking too much vitamin e might be harmful how might this study make the results of the previous study invalid?

Answer:

z=\frac{0.36 -0.39}{\sqrt{\frac{0.39(1-0.39)}{100}}}=-0.615  

The p value for this case would be:

p_v =2*P(z  

For this case since the p value is higher than the significance level we have enough evidence to FAIL to reject the null hypothesis and we can conclude that the true proportion is not different from 0.39

Step-by-step explanation:

Information given

n=100 represent the random sample taken

X=36 represent the number of people that take E supplement

\hat p=\frac{36}{100}=0.36 estimated proportion of people who take R supplement

p_o=0.39 is the value that we want to test

\alpha=0.05 represent the significance level

z would represent the statistic

p_v represent the p value

Hypothesis to test

We want to test if the true proportion is equatl to 0.39 or not, the system of hypothesis are.:  

Null hypothesis:p=0.39  

Alternative hypothesis:p \neq 0.39  

The statistic is given by:

z=\frac{\hat p -p_o}{\sqrt{\frac{p_o (1-p_o)}{n}}} (1)  

Replacing the info we got:

z=\frac{0.36 -0.39}{\sqrt{\frac{0.39(1-0.39)}{100}}}=-0.615  

The p value for this case would be:

p_v =2*P(z  

For this case since the p value is higher than the significance level we have enough evidence to FAIL to reject the null hypothesis and we can conclude that the true proportion is not different from 0.39

State whether the triangles could be proven congruent, if possible, by SSS or SAS.
Helen [10]

Answer:

1. SSS

2. SAS

3. SAS

4. SSS

5. SAS

6. SAS

Step-by-step explanation:

1) Side FY ≅ Side CW  Given

Side FP ≅ Side CM     Given

Side YP ≅ Side MW    Given

∴ΔMCW ≅ ΔFPY by the Side-Side-Side (SSS) rule of congruency

2) ∠CBD ≅ ∠BCA given that both are alternate interior angles

Side EB ≅ Side EC and Side DB ≅ Side CA Given

ΔBED ≅ ΔAEC by Side-Angle-Side (SAS) rule of congruency

3. ∠SVU ≅ ∠SVT   Given

Side SV ≅ Side SV  by reflexive property

Side VT ≅ Side VU   Given

∴ ΔVSU ≅ ΔVST by Side-Angle-Side (SAS) rule of congruency

4. Side MN ≅ Side QP  Given

Side MQ ≅ Side NP     Given

Side NQ ≅ Side NQ    by reflexive property

∴ΔQNM ≅ ΔQNP by the Side-Side-Side (SSS) rule of congruency

5. Indirect proof

Side GL ≅ Side HL  Given

Side GJ ≅ Side HK     Given

∠JLG ≅ ∠HLK    vertically opposite angles

By sine rule

GJ/sin(∠JLG) = GL/n(∠GJL)

Similarly

HK/sin(∠HLK) = HL/n(∠HKL)

∴ ∠GJL ≅ ∠HKL

∴ ∠LGJ ≅ ∠LHK third angle of two triangles given the other two angles are congruent

∴ΔQNM ≅ ΔQNP by the Side-Angle-Side (SAS) rule of congruency

6. ∠XZY ≅ ∠XZW   Supplementary ∠s with ∠XZY = 90°

Side XZ ≅ Side XZ  by reflexive property

Side ZW ≅ Side ZY   Given

∴ ΔXYZ ≅ ΔXWZ by Side-Angle-Side (SAS) rule of congruency.

2/7x+1/2x=40/7-1/6x solve for x
torisob [31]

Answer:

Keeping in mind the 'x' is in numerator, i got the answer to be 6.

Step-by-step explanation:

2/7x + 1/2x = 40/7 - 1/6x

2/7x + 1/2x + 1/6x = 40/7

2/7x + (3+1)/6x = 40/7

2/7x + 4/6x = 40/7

2/7x + 2/3x = 40/7

(2*3)+(2*7) / (7*3)x = 40/7

(6+14) / 21x = 40/7

20/21x = 40/7

20x = 40*21/7

20x = 40*3

x = 40*3 /20

x = 2*3

x=6
