1 answer:
Answer:
a.
b. x = 4 (see steps below)
Step-by-step explanation:
Since the two polygons are similar, the sides are proportional to each other. Using a proportion, you can solve for 'x' using cross-multiplication and division:
Cross-multiply: 15(x + 3) = 21(x + 1)
Distribute: 15x + 45 = 21x + 21
Subtract '15x' from both sides: 15x + 45 - 15x = 21x + 21 - 15x or 45 = 6x + 21
Subtract '21' from both sides: 45 - 21 = 6x + 21 - 21 or 24 = 6x
Divide by 6 on both sides: 24/6 = 6x/6
Solve for x: x = 4

Answer:
(B) 0.2843
Step-by-step explanation:
Let d be the difference in proportions from Country X and Country Y who were first married between the ages of 18 and 32.
Then hypotheses are
: d=0.15
: d<0.15
Test statistic can be found using the equation
where
- p1 is the sample proportion of Country X (0.36)
- p2 is the sample proportion of Country Y (0.26)
- p is the pool proportion of p1 and p2 (
)
- n1 is the sample size of adults from Country X (60)
- n2 is the sample size of adults from Country Y (50)
Then ≈ 0.5646
p-value of test statistic is ≈ 0.2843
p-value states the probability that the difference in proportions between a random sample of 60 adults from Country X and a random sample of 50 adults from Country Y who were first married between the ages of 18 and 32 is at least 0.15
