Answer: either 5, 5, 14

First, we know the median is 5. Thus, the middle value of the data is 5, so the set can now be read x, 5, y. Then, because the mode is 5 and the set is not trimodal, either x or y must be 5. Thus, the set could either be 5, 5, 14, or

-4, 5, 5. However, because it must contain only positive number, the answer is 5, 5, 14

What is the slope of o line that passes through (-4,-14) and (19,11)?

DerKrebs [107]

Answer:

D, see description below.

There is a possible typo in the problem since these points have slope 25/23.

Step-by-step explanation:

To find the slope of a line, calculate the distance between points with a ratio of vertical to horizontal distance. This is done using the formula:

$m=\frac{y_2-y_1}{x_2-x_1}$

Here the points are (-4,-14) and (19,11). Substitute and simplify.

$m=\frac{11--14}{19--4}=\frac{11+14}{19+4}=\frac{25}{23}$

I think there is a typo in your points (-4,-14) and (19,11) because the answer doesn't align to the answer choices. But based on them, I would answer D or 24/23 since it's the closest value.

Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:

Pi is a number - approximately 3.142. It is the circumference of any circle divided by its diameter. The number Pi, denoted by the Greek letter π - pronounced 'pie', is one of the most common constants in all of mathematics. It is the circumference of any circle, divided by its diameter.

2. The National Safety Council routinely analyzes the benefit of seat belt use on driver safety. Their data showed that among 28

JulijaS [17]

Answer:

We conclude that there is difference in the proportion of deaths between the 2 groups.

Step-by-step explanation:

We are given that among 2823 drivers not wearing seat belts, 31 died as a result of injuries, and among 7765 drivers wearing seat belts 16 were killed.

Let $p_1$ = proportion of deaths when drivers were not wearing seat belts.

$p_2$ = proportion of deaths when drivers were wearing seat belts.

So, Null Hypothesis, $H_0$ : $p_1=p_2$ {means that there is no difference in the proportion of deaths between the 2 groups}

Alternate Hypothesis, $H_A$ : $p_1\neq p_2$ {means that there is difference in the proportion of deaths between the 2 groups}

The test statistics that would be used here Two-sample z test for proportions;

T.S. = $\frac{(\hat p_1-\hat p_2)-(p_1-p_2)}{\sqrt{\frac{\hat p_1(1-\hat p_1)}{n_1}+\frac{\hat p_2(1-\hat p_2)}{n_2} } }$ ~ N(0,1)

where, $\hat p_1$ = sample proportion of deaths when drivers were not wearing seat belts = $\frac{31}{2823}$ = 0.011

$\hat p_2$ = sample proportion of deaths when drivers were wearing seat belts = $\frac{16}{7765}$ = 0.002

$n_1$ = sample of drivers not wearing seat belts = 2823

$n_2$ = sample of drivers wearing seat belts = 7765

So, the test statistics = $\frac{(0.011-0.002)-(0)}{\sqrt{\frac{0.011(1-0.011)}{2823}+\frac{0.002(1-0.002)}{7765} } }$

= 4.438

The value of z test statistics is 4.438.

Now, at 5% significance level the z table gives critical values of -1.96 and 1.96 for two-tailed test.

Since our test statistic doesn't lie within the range of critical values of z, so we have sufficient evidence to reject our null hypothesis as it will fall in the rejection region due to which we reject our null hypothesis.

Therefore, we conclude that there is difference in the proportion of deaths between the 2 groups.

Also, Margin of error (E) = $1.96 \times \sqrt{\frac{\hat p_1(1-\hat p_1)}{n_1}+\frac{\hat p_2(1-\hat p_2)}{n_2} }$

= $1.96 \times \sqrt{\frac{0.011(1-0.011)}{2823}+\frac{0.002(1-0.002)}{7765} }$

= 0.00397
