Hospital admissions for asthma in children younger than 15 years was studied1 in Scotland both before and after comprehensive sm

oke-free legislation was passed in March 2006. Monthly records were kept of the annualized percent change in asthma admissions, both before and after the legislation was passed. For the sample studied, before the legislation, admissions for asthma were increasing at a mean rate of 5.2% per year. The standard error for this estimate is 0.7% per year. After the legislation, admissions were decreasing at a mean rate of 18.2% per year, with a standard error for this mean of 1.79%. In both cases, the sample size is large enough to use a normal distribution. a) Find a 90% confidence interval for the mean annual percent rate of change in childhood asthma hospital admissions in Scotland before the smoke-free legislation. b)Find a 90% confidence interval for the same quantity after the legislation

Answer:

(a) A 90% confidence interval for the mean annual percent rate of change in childhood asthma hospital admissions in Scotland before the smoke-free legislation is between 4.5% and 5.9%

(b) A 90% confidence interval for the mean annual percent rate of change in childhood asthma hospital admissions in Scotland after the smoke-free legislation is between 16.41% and 19.99%

Step-by-step explanation:

Confidence Interval = mean% + or - standard error%

Before the smoke-free legislation, CI=5.2%+0.7%=5.9%

CI=5.2%-0.7%=4.5%

CI is between 4.5% and 5.9%

After the smoke-free legislation

CI=18.2%+1.79%=19.99%

CI=18.2%-1.79%=16.41%

CI is between 16.41% and 19.99%

Solve for v.<br> 19v – 18 = 16 + 17v
GarryVolchara [31]

Answer:

v= 17

Step-by-step explanation:

Start with the given equation.

19v – 18 = 16 + 17v

Move -18 to the other side, and swap it's sign.

19v = 16 + 18 + 17v

Move 17v to the other side and swap it's sign.

19v - 17v = 16 + 18

Combine like terms.

2v = 34

Divide by 2v.

v = 17

A phone plan costs $29.99 per month and includes 200 minutes of calling time. Minutes over 200 are charged at a rate of 25 cents
mylen [45]

Step-by-step explanation:

357-200 is 157 extra minutes (we are only counting the extra minutes)

157*0.25 is 39.25 (this is how much is the extra minutes in total cost)

therefore, add 39.25 and 29.99

29.99+39.25 is 62.24

Therefore, the total bill was $62.24

hope this helps :)

“Solve the system using elimination” im not good at math so can someone help me
iris [78.8K]

Answer:

No solutions

Step-by-step explanation:

i did this via substitution so i hope it isn't a problem

3x+y=4

6x+2y=−4

Step: Solve 3x+y=4for y:

3x+y+−3x=4+−3x(Add -3x to both sides)

y=−3x+4

Step: Substitute−3x+4foryin6x+2y=−4:

6x+2y=−4

6x+2(−3x+4)=−4

8=−4(Simplify both sides of the equation)

8+−8=−4+−8(Add -8 to both sides)

0=−12

so there are no solutions

hope this helps!!
