Answer:

b = 5

Step-by-step explanation:

4 ( 3b + 2 ) - 5b = 43     Given

( 4 • 3b + 4 • 2 ) - 5b = 43      Distributive Property

12b + 8 - 5b = 43

12b - 5b + 8 = 43    Combine like terms

7b + 8 = 43

7b + 8 - 8 = 43 - 8     Subtraction Property of Equality

7b = 35

7b / 7 = 35 / 7      Division Property of Equality

b = 5

At a large Midwestern university, a simple random sample of 100 entering freshmen in 1993 found that 20 of the sampled freshmen
guajiro [1.7K]

Answer:

The 90% confidence interval for the difference of proportions is (0.01775,0.18225).

Step-by-step explanation:

Before building the confidence interval, we need to understand the central limit theorem and subtraction of normal variables.

Central Limit Theorem

The Central Limit Theorem establishes that, for a normally distributed random variable X, with mean \mu and standard deviation \sigma, the sampling distribution of the sample means with size n can be approximated to a normal distribution with mean \mu and standard deviation s = \frac{\sigma}{\sqrt{n}}.

For a skewed variable, the Central Limit Theorem can also be applied, as long as n is at least 30.

For a proportion p in a sample of size n, the sampling distribution of the sample proportion will be approximately normal with mean \mu = p and standard deviation s = \sqrt{\frac{p(1-p)}{n}}

Subtraction between normal variables:

When two normal variables are subtracted, the mean is the difference of the means, while the standard deviation is the square root of the sum of the variances.

p1 -> 1993

20 out of 100, so:

p_1 = \frac{20}{100} = 0.2

s_1 = \sqrt{\frac{0.2*0.8}{100}} = 0.04

p2 -> 1997

10 out of 100, so:

p_2 = \frac{10}{100} = 0.1

s_2 = \sqrt{\frac{0.1*0.9}{100}} = 0.03

Distribution of p1 – p2:

p = p_1 - p_2 = 0.2 - 0.1 = 0.1

s = \sqrt{s_1^2+s_2^2} = \sqrt{0.04^2 + 0.03^2} = 0.05

Confidence interval:

p \pm zs

In which

z is the z-score that has a p-value of 1 - \frac{\alpha}{2}.

90% confidence level

So \alpha = 0.1, z is the value of Z that has a p-value of 1 - \frac{0.1}{2} = 0.95, so Z = 1.645.  

The lower bound of the interval is:

p - zs = 0.1 - 1.645*0.05 = 0.01775


The upper bound of the interval is:

p + zs = 0.1 + 1.645*0.05 = 0.18225


The 90% confidence interval for the difference of proportions is (0.01775,0.18225).

Explain the effect f (x)+k has on the graph if the exponential function f (x) Be specific and use complete sentences for full cr
Masteriza [31]
The +k part of the function takes the original function and translates it straight up k units. It's as simple as that.  If your function is the line f(x) = 3x, then the function f(x) = 3x + 4 moves that first function up 4 units.
