A clinical trial was conducted to test the effectiveness of a drug for treating insomnia in older subjects. Before​ treatment, 2

2 subjects had a mean wake time of 105.0 min. After​ treatment, the 22 subjects had a mean wake time of 95.7 min and a standard deviation of 22.2 min. Assume that the 22 sample values appear to be from a normally distributed population and construct a 99​% confidence interval estimate of the mean wake time for a population with drug treatments. What does the result suggest about the mean wake time of 105.0 min before the​ treatment? Does the drug appear to be​ effective?

Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:

We want to determine a 99% confidence interval estimate of the mean wake time for a population with drug treatments.

Number of sample, n = 22

Mean, u = 95.7 min

Standard deviation, s = 22.2 min

For a confidence level of 90%, the corresponding z value is 2.58.

We will apply the formula

Confidence interval

= mean ± z × standard deviation/√n

It becomes

95.7 ± 2.58 × 22.2/√22

= 95.7 ± 12.21

The lower end of the confidence interval is 95.7 - 12.21 = 83.49 min

The upper end of the confidence interval is 95.7 + 12.21 = 107.91 min

The result suggests that there is no significant difference between the mean wake time before and after treatment. Therefore, the drug does not appear to be effective.

Nidhi is creating a rectangular garden in her backyard. The length of the garden is 10 feet. The perimeter of the garden must be
Basile [38]

Answer:

The range of width is 10 ≤ W ≤ 28

Step-by-step explanation:

* lets study the meaning of compound inequality

- If x is greater than a and x is smaller than b, then x is between a and b

∵ x > a and x < b

∴ The compound inequality is ⇒ a < x < b

# Ex: ∵ x > -2 and x < 10

∴ The compound inequality is ⇒ -2 < x < 10

- If x is greater than or equal a and x is smaller than or equal b, then

 x is from a and b

∵ x ≥ a and x ≤ b

∴ The compound inequality is ⇒ a ≤ x ≤ b

# Ex: ∵ x ≥ -2 and x ≤ 10

∴ The compound inequality is ⇒ -2 ≤ x ≤ 10

* Now lets solve the problem

- The garden in the shape of a rectangle with dimensions length (L)

 and width (W)

- The length of the garden is 10 feet

- The perimeter (P) of the garden is at least 40 feet and not more than

  76 feet

∵ L = 10 feet

∵ P = 2L + 2W

- At least means greater than or equal (≥) and not more than means

 smaller than or equal (≤)

∴ P ≥ 40 feet

∴ P ≤ 76 feet

- lets use the rule of the perimeter

∴ 2(10) + 2(W) ≥ 40 ⇒ simplify

∴ 20 + 2W ≥ 40 ⇒ subtract 20 from both sides

∴ 2W ≥ 20 ⇒ divide both sides by 2

∴ W ≥ 10 ⇒ (1)

- Do similar with P ≤ 76

∴ 2(10) + 2(W) ≤ 76 ⇒ simplify

∴ 20 + 2W ≤ 76 ⇒ subtract 20 from both sides

∴ 2W ≤ 56 ⇒ divide both sides by 2

∴ W ≤ 28 ⇒ (2)

- From (1) and (2)

∴ 10 ≤ W ≤ 28 ⇒ compound inequality

* The range of the width is from 10 feet to 28 feet

The population of a city increase exponentially at a rate of x% every 5 years
Lerok [7]

Answer:

1.1460277. Put in your decimal place given to you.

This is the percentage rate.

Step-by-step explanation:

f(x)=0=60100

55=120150

60100=a*b^0

120150/60100=60100/60100*b^5

b^5^(1/5)=5square root(120150/60100)=1.14860277
