A yearbook company was investigating whether there is a significant difference between two states in the percents of high school

students who order yearbooks. From a random sample of 150 students selected from one state, 70 had ordered a yearbook. From a random sample of 100 students selected from the other state, 65 had ordered a yearbook. Which of the following is the most appropriate method for analyzing the results?

Answer: D. two-sample z-test for a difference in population proportions

Step-by-step explanation:

The options for the given questions were missing. The options are as follows:

A one-sample z-test for a sample proportion

B one-sample z-test for a population proportion

A

C two-sample z-test for a difference in sample proportions

D two-sample z-test for a difference in population proportions

Solution:

Sample proportions are used to estimate population proportions.

We are given the sample proportion of students from one state who ordered a yearbook = 70/150

We are also given the sample proportion of students from the other state who ordered a yearbook = 65/100

Since there are 2 samples and we want to investigate if there is a difference between 2 population of students,

Therefore, the most appropriate method for analyzing the results is

D. two-sample z-test for a difference in population proportions

Triangle DEF has vertices D(0,0), E(7,0), and F(3,7).

Leni [432]

Answer:

(3, 1.7)

Step-by-step explanation:

The point at which the vertices of a triangle meet is known as the orthocenter of the triangle. The orthocenter passes through the vertex of the triangle and is perpendicular to the opposite sides.

Two lines are perpendicular if the product of their slopes is -1.

The slope of the line joining D(0,0), F(3,7) is:

$m_1=\frac{7-0}{3-0}=\frac{7}{3}$

The slope of the line perpendicular to the line joining D and F is -3/7. The orthocenter is perpendicular to the line joining D and F and passes through vertex E(7, 0). The equation is hence:

$y-y_1=m(x-x_1)\\\\y-0=-\frac{3}{7} (x-7)\\\\y=-\frac{3}{7}x+3 \ .\ .\ .\ (1)$

The slope of the line joining E(7,0), and F(3,7). is:

$m_1=\frac{7-0}{3-7}=-\frac{7}{4}$

The slope of the line perpendicular to the line joining E and F is 4/7. The orthocenter is perpendicular to the line joining E and F and passes through vertex D(0, 0). The equation is hence:

$y-y_1=m(x-x_1)\\\\y-0=\frac{4}{7} (x-0)\\\\y=\frac{4}{7} x\ .\ .\ .\ (2)$

The point of intersection of equation 1 and equation 2 is the orthocenter. Solving equation 1 and 2 simultaneously gives:

x = 3, y = 1.7
