The Answer Is B

Use proportions to find x% of the children playing on the swings.

\frac{21}{100}  =  \frac{5}{x\%}

x  = 23.80952380\%

Meaning B is correct.

Solve the following equation for x.<br> 0.1(x + 250) = 5,000<br> h
yan [13]

Answer:

x=49750

Step-by-step explanation:

0.1(x + 250) = 5,000

Divide each side by .1

0.1(x + 250)/.1 = 5,000/.1

x+250 =50000

Subtract 250 from each side

x+250-250 = 50000-250

x=49750

Answer:

\chi^2 = \frac{(32-42)^2}{42}+\frac{(18-8)^2}{8}+\frac{(68-63)^2}{63}+\frac{(7-12)^2}{12}+\frac{(89-84)^2}{84}+\frac{(11-16)^2}{16}=19.221

Now we can calculate the degrees of freedom for the statistic given by:

df=(rows-1)(cols-1)=(3-1)(2-1)=2

And we can calculate the p value given by:

p_v = P(\chi^2_{2} >19.221)=0.000067

And we can find the p value using the following excel code:

"=1-CHISQ.DIST(19.221,2,TRUE)"

Since the p values is higher than a significance level for example \alpha=0.05, we can reject the null hypothesis at 5% of significance, and we can conclude that the two variables are dependent at 5% of significance.

Step-by-step explanation:

Previous concepts

A chi-square goodness of fit test "determines if a sample data matches a population".

A chi-square test for independence "compares two variables in a contingency table to see if they are related. In a more general sense, it tests to see whether distributions of categorical variables differ from each another".

Solution to the problem

Assume the following dataset:

Size Company/ Heal. Ins.   Yes   No  Total

Small                                      32   18    50

Medium                                 68     7    75

Large                                     89    11    100

_____________________________________

Total                                     189    36   225

We need to conduct a chi square test in order to check the following hypothesis:

H0: independence between heath insurance coverage and size of the company

H1:  NO independence between heath insurance coverage and size of the company

The statistic to check the hypothesis is given by:

\sum_{i=1}^n \frac{(O_i -E_i)^2}{E_i}

The table given represent the observed values, we just need to calculate the expected values with the following formula E_i = \frac{total col * total row}{grand total}

And the calculations are given by:

E_{1} =\frac{50*189}{225}=42

E_{2} =\frac{50*36}{225}=8

E_{3} =\frac{75*189}{225}=63

E_{4} =\frac{75*36}{225}=12

E_{5} =\frac{100*189}{225}=84

E_{6} =\frac{100*36}{225}=16

And the expected values are given by:

Size Company/ Heal. Ins.   Yes   No  Total

Small                                      42    8    50

Medium                                 63     12    75

Large                                     84    16    100

_____________________________________

Total                                     189    36   225

And now we can calculate the statistic:

\chi^2 = \frac{(32-42)^2}{42}+\frac{(18-8)^2}{8}+\frac{(68-63)^2}{63}+\frac{(7-12)^2}{12}+\frac{(89-84)^2}{84}+\frac{(11-16)^2}{16}=19.221

Now we can calculate the degrees of freedom for the statistic given by:

df=(rows-1)(cols-1)=(3-1)(2-1)=2

And we can calculate the p value given by:

p_v = P(\chi^2_{2} >19.221)=0.000067

And we can find the p value using the following excel code:

"=1-CHISQ.DIST(19.221,2,TRUE)"

Since the p values is higher than a significance level for example \alpha=0.05, we can reject the null hypothesis at 5% of significance, and we can conclude that the two variables are dependent at 5% of significance.

Please help me, thank you
krek1111 [17]

Just divide 1,300 by 5.

260 would be your answer. If you want an explanation, if you think about the term 100%, that's the total at the time. Amplifying that 100% by five would practically mean five times the amount of 100%, so 500%. You're just multiplying the amount of bunnies at the time by 5. (500% in decimal form is 5)

Write the following polar equation in Cartesian coordinates:
maks197457 [2]
Remember that transformation between Cartesian and polar system are:
x=r*cos(α)
y=r*sin(α)
From this we can conclude that:
r=√(x^2 + y^2)

Using trigonometry transformations we can write:
r=sin(2α) = 2sin(α)cos(α)
Now we can multiply both sides with r^2:
r^3 = 2(r*sin(α))*(r*cos(α))

Now using some replacements we can write:
(x^2 + y^2)^(3/2) = 2*x*y

A customer will be charged extra if the weight of their suitcase is above 48 pounds.
amm1812

Answer:

w>48 pounds

Step-by-step explanation:

The customer will be charged extra if the weight of their suitcase is above 48 pounds.

Let the weight of the suitcase = w (in pounds)

Therefore, w above (greater than) 48 pounds is written mathematically as:

w>48 pounds

This is the inequality that represents w, the weight of the suitcase in pounds, that will have an extra charge.
