Answer:

slope = 6

y-intercept = -5

Step-by-step explanation:

The equation is in slope-intercept form:

y = mx + b

where m is the slope and b is the y-intercept

Let's find the slope:

The slope is the number being multiplied by x.

y = mx + b

y = 6x - 5

Therefore, the slope is 6.

Let's find the y-intercept:

The y-intercept is the last number in the equation.

y = mx + b

y = 6x -5

Therefore, the y-intercept is -5.

Answer:

$z=\frac{0.384-0.362}{\sqrt{0.374(1-0.374)(\frac{1}{4276}+\frac{1}{3908})}}=2.055$

The p value can be calculated from the alternative hypothesis with this probability:

$p_v =2*P(Z>2.055)=0.0399$

And the best option for this case would be:

C. between 0.01 and 0.05.

Step-by-step explanation:

Information provided

$X_{1}=1642$ represent the number of smokers from the sample in 1995

$X_{2}=1415$ represent the number of smokers from the sample in 2010

$n_{1}=4276$ sample from 1995

$n_{2}=3908$ sample from 2010

$p_{1}=\frac{1642}{4276}=0.384$ represent the proportion of smokers from the sample in 1995

$p_{2}=\frac{1415}{3908}=0.362$ represent the proportion of smokers from the sample in 2010

$\hat p$ represent the pooled estimate of p

z would represent the statistic

$p_v$ represent the value for the pvalue

System of hypothesis

We want to test the equality of the proportion of smokers and the system of hypothesis are:

Null hypothesis: $p_{1} = p_{2}$

Alternative hypothesis: $p_{1} \neq p_{2}$

The statistic is given by:

$z=\frac{p_{1}-p_{2}}{\sqrt{\hat p (1-\hat p)(\frac{1}{n_{1}}+\frac{1}{n_{2}})}}$ (1)

Where $\hat p=\frac{X_{1}+X_{2}}{n_{1}+n_{2}}=\frac{1642+1415}{4276+3908}=0.374$

Replacing the info given we got:

$z=\frac{0.384-0.362}{\sqrt{0.374(1-0.374)(\frac{1}{4276}+\frac{1}{3908})}}=2.055$

The p value can be calculated from the alternative hypothesis with this probability:

$p_v =2*P(Z>2.055)=0.0399$

And the best option for this case would be:

C. between 0.01 and 0.05.

The area of a playground is 216 yd^2. The width of the playground is 6 yd longer than its length. Find the length and width of t

zvonat [6]

Let the length of the playground be x, then the width is 6 + x.

Area = length * width = x * (6 + x) = 6x + x^2 = 216

Solving the quadratic equation x^2 + 6x - 216 = 0, we have x = 12 or -18

i.e length = 12 and width = 6 + 18 = 18
