Answer:

The equation would be set up as y=mx+b

Sometimes the x b and y will be switched around and you would have to subtract add or divide to place the number in slope intercept form

Can 3.65909090909 be expressed as a fraction whose denominator is a power of 10? Explain.

GuDViN [60]

$\bf 3.659\textit{ can also be written as }\cfrac{3659}{1000}\textit{ therefore }3.6590909\overline{09}\\\\
\textit{can be written as }\cfrac{3659.0909\overline{09}}{1000}$

notice above, all we did, was isolate the "recurring part" to the right of the decimal point, so the repeating 09, ended up on the right of it.

now, let's say, "x" is a variable whose value is the recurring part, therefore then

$\bf \cfrac{3659.0909\overline{09}}{1000}\qquad \boxed{x=0.0909\overline{09}} \qquad \cfrac{3659+0.0909\overline{09}}{1000}\implies \cfrac{3659+x}{1000}$

now, the idea behind the recurring part is that, we then, once we have it all to the right of the dot, we multiply it by some power of 10, so that it moves it "once" to the left of it, well, the recurring part is 09, is two digits, so let's multiply it by 100 then,

$\bf \begin{array}{llllllll}
100x&=&09.0909\overline{09}\\
&&9+0.0909\overline{09}\\
&&9+x
\end{array}\quad \implies 100x=9+x\implies 99x=9
\\\\\\
x=\cfrac{9}{99}\implies \boxed{x=\cfrac{1}{11}}\\\\
-------------------------------\\\\
\cfrac{3659.0909\overline{09}}{1000}\qquad \boxed{x=0.0909\overline{09}} \quad \cfrac{3659+0.0909\overline{09}}{1000}\implies \cfrac{3659+x}{1000}
\\\\\\
\cfrac{3659+\frac{1}{11}}{1000}$

and you can check that in your calculator.

Marta said 50 + one-half m = 120 is an equation, while Maribel argued that it is an expression. Determine who is correct and exp

In-s [12.5K]

Answer:

Marta

Step-by-step explanation:

We are given that

$50+\frac{1}{2}m=120$

We have to find who is correct and explain.

We know that

Equation: It is mathematical sentence that combines numbers and variables which shows the equality of two expressions.

Example:

$x+y=3$

Expression: It is mathematical phrase that combines numbers and variables

using mathematical operators.It can be evaluated but not solved.

Example:

$x+y$

By definitions

$50+\frac{1}{2}m=120$

It is in equation form.

Therefore, Marta is correct.

Answer:

Null hypothesis:H₀:- There is no significant difference between in drug resistance between the two states

Alternative Hypothesis :H₁:

There is significant difference between in drug resistance between the two states

B)

The calculated value Z = 2.7261 > 2.054 at 0.02 level of significance

Rejected H₀

There is a significant difference in drug resistance between the two states.

P - value = 0.0066

P - value = 0.0066 < 0.02

D)

1) Reject H₀

There is a significant difference in drug resistance between the two states.

Step-by-step explanation:

Step(i):-

Given first sample size n₁ = 174

Suppose that, of 174 cases tested in a certain state, 11 were found to be drug-resistant.

First sample proportion

$p_{1} = \frac{x_{1} }{n_{1} } = \frac{11}{174} = 0.0632$

Given second sample size n₂ = 375

Given data Suppose also that, of 375 cases tested in another state, 7 were found to be drug-resistant

Second sample proportion

$p_{2} = \frac{x_{2} }{n_{2} } = \frac{7}{375} = 0.0186$

Step(ii):-

Null hypothesis:H₀:- There is no significant difference between in drug resistance between the two states

Alternative Hypothesis :H₁:

There is significant difference between in drug resistance between the two states

Test statistic

$Z = \frac{p_{1}-p_{2} }{\sqrt{PQ(\frac{1}{n_{1} }+\frac{1}{n_{2} } ) } }$

Where

$P = \frac{n_{1}p_{1} +n_{2} p_{2} }{n_{1} +n_{2} }$

$P = \frac{174 (0.0632) + 375 (0.0186) }{174+375 } = \frac{17.9718}{549} = 0.0327$

Q = 1 - P = 1 - 0.0327 = 0.9673

Step(iii):-

Test statistic

$Z = \frac{p_{1}-p_{2} }{\sqrt{PQ(\frac{1}{n_{1} }+\frac{1}{n_{2} } ) } }$

$Z = \frac{0.0632-0.0186 }{\sqrt{0.0327 X 0.9673(\frac{1}{174 }+\frac{1}{375 } ) } }$

Z = 2.7261

Level of significance = 0.02 or 0.98

The z-value = 2.054

The calculated value Z = 2.7261 > 2.054 at 0.02 level of significance

Reject H₀

There is a significant difference in drug resistance between the two states.

P- value

P( Z > 2.7261) = 1 - P( Z < 2.726)

= 1 - ( 0.5 + A (2.72))

= 0.5 - 0.4967

= 0.0033

we will use two tailed test

2 P( Z > 2.7261) = 2 × 0.0033

= 0.0066

P - value = 0.0066 < 0.02

Reject H₀

There is a significant difference in drug resistance between the two states.
