In a certain city 250 men in a sample of 1000 were found to be smokers. in anotherr city the numbar of smokers was 750 in a rand

om sample of 2000. does this indicate the there is a greater proportion of smokers in the second city than in the first?

Ratio in the first sample = 250/1000 = 1/4 = 0.25
ratio in the second sample = 750/2000 =  0.375

hence ,<span> there is a greater proportion of smokers in the second city than in the first.

hope this helps!!

How does doubling the side length of a rectangle affect its area
baherus [9]
Doubling the side-lengths will multiply the area by four.

Proof:
Let the side-lengths of the rectangle by x and y.  Clearly, the area will be x*y=xy.  The new rectangle will have side-lengths 2x and 2y, and thus area 2x*2y=4xy.  4xy/xy=4 - hence, the new rectangle has four times the area of the old one.

The three incoming currents at a node in an electrical circuit measure 0.7 amps, 0.68 amps, and 0.47 amps two of the three outgo
OLga [1]
What goes in goes out. This means none of the current is lost. So if 0.7amps+0.68amps+0.47amps = 1.85 amps comes in, then 1.85 amps goes out. So far we have 0.8 amps+0.55 amps going out= 1.35 amps. This means we need an additional 1.85-1.35amps going out= 0.5 amps for the third outgoing current. Cheers!

Complete the square to put he equation in convenient form for graphing. Then graph the conic section
Maslowich
First off, I think the equation should have a negative 9 in it originally and then you move it to the other side and it becomes positive.

You'll basically complete the square for two equations at the same time. Set it up like this:

(16x^2 + 96x) + (9y^2 - 18y) = 9

Divide everything by 16 to get the x^2 by itself, then divide everything by 9 to get y^2 by itself. You should end up with this.

(x^2 + 6x) + (y^2 - 2y) = 9/144

then complete the square by taking the second term of each polynomial, dividing by two, and squaring it.

For instance the first one will be 6/2 = 3^2 = 9

The next one will be 2/2 =1^2 = 1

Add these to numbers to the polynomials as well as to the other side of the equation to keep it equal. You should end up with this.


(x^2 + 6x+9) + (y^2 - 2y+1) = (9/144)+9+1

Then find a common denominator on the right side of the equals sign and add them all together to get:

(x^2 + 6x+9) + (y^2 - 2y+1) = 1449/144

Factor out the two polynomials

(x+3)^2 + (y-1)^2 = 1449/144

the center of the circle is (-3,1) according to the factored out polynomials and the radius will be the square root of the number on the right side of the equals sign = sqrt(1449/144) = 3.17

23. The nth term of a sequence is n2 + 3. Find the first 3 terms of this sequence.
Setler79 [48]
23.
assuming you meann^2+3

first term is n=1, so 1²+3=1+3=4
2nd is n=2 so 2²+3=4+3=7
3rd is n=3 so 3²+3=9+3=12

the first 3 terms are 4,7,12


24.
5th term is 5²+3=25+3=28
10th term is 10²+3=100+3=103

difference is 103-28=75
