Answer:

262 miles

Step-by-step explanation:

251.55 - 20.99 = 230.56

\frac{230.56}{0.88} =262

Researchers at the National Cancer Institute released the results of a study that investigated the effect of weed-killing herbic
jolli1 [7]

Answer:

The 95% confidence interval for the difference in the proportion of cancer diagnoses between the two groups is (0.3834, 0.5166).

Step-by-step explanation:

Before building the confidence interval, we need to understand the central limit theorem and subtraction between normal variables.

Central Limit Theorem

The Central Limit Theorem estabilishes that, for a normally distributed random variable X, with mean \mu and standard deviation \sigma, the sampling distribution of the sample means with size n can be approximated to a normal distribution with mean \mu and standard deviation s = \frac{\sigma}{\sqrt{n}}.

For a skewed variable, the Central Limit Theorem can also be applied, as long as n is at least 30.

For a proportion p in a sample of size n, the sampling distribution of the sample proportion will be approximately normal with mean \mu = p and standard deviation s = \sqrt{\frac{p(1-p)}{n}}

Subtraction between normal variables:

When two normal variables are subtracted, the mean is the difference of the means, while the standard deviation is the square root of the sum of the variances.

The randomly sampled 400 dogs from homes where an herbicide was used on a regular basis, diagnosing lymphoma in 230 of them.

This means that:

p_h = \frac{230}{400} = 0.575, s_h = \sqrt{\frac{0.575*0.425}{400}} = 0.0247

Of 200 dogs randomly sampled from homes where no herbicides were used, only 25 were found to have lymphoma.

This means that:

p_n = \frac{25}{200} = 0.125, s_n = \sqrt{\frac{0.125*0.875}{200}} = 0.0234

Distribution of the difference:

p = p_h - p_n = 0.575 - 0.125 = 0.45

s = \sqrt{s_h^2+s_n^2} = \sqrt{0.0247^2 + 0.0234^2} = 0.034

Confidence interval:

The confidence interval is:

p \pm zs

In which

z is the zscore that has a pvalue of 1 - \frac{\alpha}{2}.

95% confidence level

So \alpha = 0.05, z is the value of Z that has a pvalue of 1 - \frac{0.05}{2} = 0.975, so Z = 1.96.

The lower bound is 0.45 - 1.96(0.034) = 0.3834

The upper bound is 0.45 + 1.96(0.034) = 0.5166

The 95% confidence interval for the difference in the proportion of cancer diagnoses between the two groups is (0.3834, 0.5166).

Does anyone know the answer and how to solve?
Valentin [98]
First box should be: 2 bc of the second statement
second box (top right): 5 bc 12 students total, subtract from rest (u do this last)
third box: 1 bc all that’s leftover from first box
fourth box (bottom right) 5 bc of third statement
basically, for two way tables each box must apply/be applied to two topics. hope this helps

What is the reference angle for 7pi/6​
max2010maxim [7]

Answer:

\frac{\pi }{6}

Step-by-step explanation:

\frac{7\pi }{6} is in the third quadrant

To find the reference angle subtract π from it, that is

reference angle = \frac{7\pi }{6} - π = \frac{\pi }{6}

Suppose that two teams play a series of games that ends when one of them has won ???? games. Also suppose that each game played
Musya8 [376]

Answer:

(a) E(X) = -2p² + 2p + 2; d²/dp² E(X) at p = 1/2 is less than 0

(b) 6p⁴ - 12p³ + 3p² + 3p + 3; d²/dp² E(X) at p = 1/2 is less than 0

Step-by-step explanation:

(a) when i = 2, the expected number of played games will be:

E(X) = 2[p² + (1-p)²] + 3[2p² (1-p) + 2p(1-p)²] = 2[p²+1-2p+p²] + 3[2p²-2p³+2p(1-2p+p²)] = 2[2p²-2p+1] + 3[2p² - 2p³+2p-4p²+2p³] =  4p²-4p+2-6p²+6p = -2p²+2p+2.

If p = 1/2, then:

d²/dp² E(X) = d/dp (-4p + 2) = -4 which is less than 0. Therefore, the E(X) is maximized.

(b) when i = 3;

E(X) = 3[p³ + (1-p)³] + 4[3p³(1-p) + 3p(1-p)³] + 5[6p³(1-p)² + 6p²(1-p)³]

Simplification and rearrangement lead to:

E(X) = 6p⁴-12p³+3p²+3p+3

if p = 1/2, then:

d²/dp² E(X) at p = 1/2 = d/dp (24p³-36p²+6p+3) = 72p²-72p+6 = 72(1/2)² - 72(1/2) +6 = 18 - 36 +8 = -10

Therefore, E(X) is maximized.
