18 feet equals 6 yards. 18/3
Zina [86]3 years ago
3 0

Answer:

18 ft = 6 yd

Step-by-step explanation:

Recall that 1 yd = 3 ft.

Thus, 18 ft is 6 times greater than 3 ft, and 18 ft becomes

18 ft       x

------- * ------

 3 ft     1 yd

Then 3x = 18, and x = 6.  

18 ft = 6 yd

Rewrite 24 * x in a different way, using the commutative property of multiplication. Note that x represents a real number.
Ivan
The communicative property means that multiplied numbers can be multiplied in any order.

3*2*4 is the same as 2*4*3. The answer will be the same.

So (24 * x) is the same as (x * 24).

Hope this helps! :)

In a clinical trial of 268 subjects treated with a​ drug, 11​% of the subjects reported dizziness. The margin of error is plus o
Mariulka [41]

Answer:

\hat p =0.11 represent the proportion estimated of subjects reported with dizziness

n = 268 represent the random sample selected

\hat q = 1-\hat p = 1-0.11= 0.89 represent the proportion of subjects No reported with dizziness

E= 0.04 = 4% represent the margin of error for the confidence interval

\alpha= 1-0.90 =0.1 and this value represent the significance level of the test or the probability of error type I

Step-by-step explanation:

Previous concepts

A confidence interval is "a range of values that’s likely to include a population value with a certain degree of confidence. It is often expressed a % whereby a population means lies between an upper and lower interval".  

The margin of error is the range of values below and above the sample statistic in a confidence interval.  

Normal distribution, is a "probability distribution that is symmetric about the mean, showing that data near the mean are more frequent in occurrence than data far from the mean".  

The population proportion have the following distribution

p \sim N(p,\sqrt{\frac{p(1-p)}{n}})

Solution to the problem

The confidence interval for the mean is given by the following formula:  

\hat p \pm z_{\alpha/2}\sqrt{\frac{\hat p (1-\hat p)}{n}}

The margin of error is given by:

ME= z_{\alpha/2}\sqrt{\frac{\hat p (1-\hat p)}{n}}

Lower= 0.11-0.04 = 0.07

Upper= 0.11+0.04 = 0.15

And for this case we have the following info:

\hat p =0.11 represent the proportion estimated of subjects reported with dizziness

n = 268 represent the random sample selected

\hat q = 1-\hat p = 1-0.11= 0.89 represent the proportion of subjects No reported with dizziness

E= 0.04 = 4% represent the margin of error for the confidence interval

\alpha= 1-0.90 =0.1 and this value represent the significance level of the test or the probability of error type I

A researcher used a sample of n = 60 individuals to determine whether there are any preferences among six brands of pizza. Each
Blizzard [7]

Answer:

1) χ² ≥ 11.07

2) Goodness of fit test, df: χ²_{3}

Independence test, df: χ²_{1}

The goodness of fit test has more degrees of freedom than the independence test.

3) e_{females.} = 80

4) H₀: P_{ij}= P_{i.} * P_{.j} ∀ i= 1, 2, ..., r and j= 1, 2, ..., c

5) χ²_{6}

Step-by-step explanation:

Hello!

1)

The researcher took a sample of n=60 people and made them taste proof samples of six different brands of pizza and choose their favorite brand, their choose was recorded. So the study variable is the following:

X: favorite pizza brand, categorized in brand 1, brand 2, brand 3, brand 4, brand 5 and brand 6.

The Chi-square goodness of fit test is done with the following statistic:

χ²= ∑\frac{(O_i-E_i)^2}{E_i} ≈χ²_{k-1}

Where k represents the number of categories of the study variable. In this example k= 6.

Remember, the rejection region for the Chi-square tests of "goodnedd of fit", "independence", and "homogeneity" is allways one-tailed to the right. So you will only have one critical value.

χ²_{k-1; 1 - \alpha }

χ²_{6-1; 1 - 0.05 }

χ²_{5; 0.95 } = 11.070

This means thar the rejection region is χ² ≥ 11.07

If the Chi-Square statistic is equal or greather than 11.07, then you reject the null hypothesis.

2)

The statistic for the goodness of fit is:

χ²= ∑\frac{(O_i-E_i)^2}{E_i} ≈χ²_{k-1}

Degrees of freedom: χ²_{k-1}

In the example: k= 4 (the variable has 4 categories)

χ²_{4-1} = χ²_{3}

The statistic for the independence test is:

χ²= ∑∑\frac{(O_ij-E_ij)^2}{E_ij} ≈χ²_{(r-1)(c-1)} ∀ i= 1, 2, ..., r & j= 1, 2, ..., c

If the information is in a contingency table

r= represents the total of rows

c= represents the total of columns

In the example: c= 2 and r= 2

Degrees of freedom: χ²_{(r-1)(c-1)}

χ²_{(2-1)(2-1)} = χ²_{1}

The goodness of fit test has more degrees of freedom than the independence test.

3)

To calculate the expected frecuencies for the independence test you have to use the following formula.

e_{ij} = n * P_i. * P_.j = n * \frac{o_i.}{n} * \frac{o_.j}{n}

Where o_i. represents the total observations of the i-row, o_.j represents the total of observations of the j-column and n is the sample size.

Now, this is for the expected frequencies in the body of the contingency table, this means the observed and expected frequencies for each crossing of categories is not the same.

On the other hand, you would have the totals of each category and population in the margins of the table (subtotals), this is the same when looking at the observed frequencies and the expected frequencies. Wich means that the expected frequency for the total of a population is the same as the observed frequency of said population. A quick method to check if your calculations of the expected frequencies for one category/population are correct is to add them, if the sum results in the subtotal of that category/population, it means that you have calculated the expected frequencies correctly.

The expected frequency for the total of females is 80

Using the formula:

(If the females are in a row) e_{females.} = 100 * \frac{80}{100} * \frac{0}{100}

e_{females.} = 80

4)

There are two ways of writing down a null hypothesis for the independence test:

Way 1: using colloquial language

H₀: The variables X and Y are independent

Way 2: Symbolically

H₀: P_{ij}= P_{i.} * P_{.j} ∀ i= 1, 2, ..., r and j= 1, 2, ..., c

This type of hypothesis follows from the definition of independent events, where if we have events A and B independent of each other, the probability of A and B is equal to the product of the probability of A and the probability of B, symbolically: P(A∩B) = P(A) * P(B)

5)

In this example, you have an independence test for two variables.

Variable 1, has 3 categories

Variable 2, has 4 categories

To follow the notation, let's say that variable 1 is in the rows and variable 2 is in the columns of the contingency table.

The statistic for this test is:

χ²= ∑∑\frac{(O_ij-E_ij)^2}{E_ij} ≈χ²_{(r-1)(c-1)} ∀ i= 1, 2, ..., r & j= 1, 2, ..., c

In the example: c= 3 and r= 4

Degrees of freedom: χ²_{(r-1)(c-1)}

χ²_{(3-1)(4-1)} = χ²_{6}

I hope you have a SUPER day!

Find f(-2).<br> A. 4<br> B. 8<br> C. 10<br> D. 20
il63 [147K]

Answer:

D. 20

Step-by-step explanation:

First, we need to plug in -2 to all the spots where x are. The new equation we have then is f(-2)= 2(-2)^2 - 3(-2) + 6. Then, we plug in the exponent to get 2(4) - 3(-2) + 6. We can then multiply to get 8 + 6 (since the three was negative as well) + 6, which equals 20.
