Answer:

difference in the proportion = 0.0452

Step-by-step explanation:

x1 = 27, n1 = 193,

p1 = 27/193

p1 = 0.1399

x2 = 16, n2 = 169,

p2 = 16/169

p2 = 0.0947

a) The best estimate for the difference in the proportion of smokers, using male proportion minus female proportion is 0.0452. Male smokes more than females in given sample.

p1 - p2 = 0.1399 - 0.0947

p1 - p2 = 0.0452

Solve x42=37 x 42 = 3 7 using two different strategies. Explain each strategy.
Dafna11 [192]

Given equation : \frac{x}{42}=\frac{3}{7}.

Strategy 1: We can cross mutiply both sides remove fraction form.

On cross multiplication, we get

x * 7 = 3 * 42

7x = 126.

Dividing both sides by 7, we get

<h3>x = 18.</h3>

Strategy 2: We can find least common denominator(lcd) of both sides and multiplying both sides by that lcd to get rid denominators from both sides.

LCD of 42 and 7 is 42.

Therefore, multiplying both sides by 42, we get

42\times \frac{x}{42}=42\times\frac{3}{7}

x = 6 * 3

<h3>x = 18.</h3>
