Answer:

QR = 19.4

Step-by-step explanation:

Use Pythagoras because p = 90°

Qr is hypotenuse

; (15.5)² + (11.7)²

= 377.14

√377.14

= 19.42009

= 19.42

= 19.4

hope it helps ☺️

Answer:

There is a significant difference between the two proportions.

Step-by-step explanation:

The (1 - <em>α</em>)% confidence interval for difference between population proportions is:

$CI=(\hat p_{1}-\hat p_{2})\pm z_{\alpha/2}\times\sqrt{\frac{\hat p_{1}(1-\hat p_{1})}{n_{1}}+\frac{\hat p_{2}(1-\hat p_{2})}{n_{2}}}$

Compute the sample proportions as follows:

$\hat p_{1}=\frac{80}{250}=0.32\\\\\hat p_{2}=\frac{40}{175}=0.23$

The critical value of <em>z</em> for 90% confidence interval is:

$z_{0.10/2}=z_{0.05}=1.645$

Compute a 90% confidence interval for the difference between the proportions of women in these two fields of engineering as follows:

$CI=(\hat p_{1}-\hat p_{2})\pm z_{\alpha/2}\times\sqrt{\frac{\hat p_{1}(1-\hat p_{1})}{n_{1}}+\frac{\hat p_{2}(1-\hat p_{2})}{n_{2}}}$

$=(0.32-0.23)\pm 1.645\times\sqrt{\frac{0.32(1-0.32)}{250}+\frac{0.23(1-0.23)}{175}}\\\\=0.09\pm 0.0714\\\\=(0.0186, 0.1614)\\\\\approx (0.02, 0.16)$

There will be no difference between the two proportions if the 90% confidence interval consists of 0.

But the 90% confidence interval does not consists of 0.

Thus, there is a significant difference between the two proportions.

Steel rods are manufactured with a mean length of 29 centimeter (cm). Because of variability in the manufacturing process, the l

zavuch27 [327]

Solution :

Given data :

The mean length of the steel rod = 29 centimeter (cm)

The standard deviation of a normally distributed lengths of rods = 0.07 centimeter (cm)

a). We are required to find the proportion of rod that have a length of less than 28.9 centimeter (cm).

Therefore, P(x < 28.9) = P(z < (28.9-29) / 0.07)

= P(z < -1.42)

= 0.0778

b). Any rods which is shorter than $24.84$ cm or longer than $25.16$ cm that re discarded.

Therefore,

P (x < 24.84 or 25.16 < x) = P( -59.42 < z or -54.85)

= 1.052
