What is the y-intercept of the line shown? (4 points)

A doctor released the results of clinical trials for a vaccine to prevent a particular disease. In these clinical trials, 200,0

CaHeK987 [17]

Answer:

1) No, there is not enough evidence to support the claim that the vaccine was effective (P-value=0.104) .

The null and alternative hypothesis are:

$H_0: \pi_1-\pi_2=0\\\\H_a:\pi_1-\pi_2< 0$

being the subindex 1 for the experimental group and subindex 2 for the control group.

2) Test statistic z=-1.26

Step-by-step explanation:

This is a hypothesis test for the difference between proportions.

The claim is that the vaccine was effective.

Then, the null and alternative hypothesis are:

$H_0: \pi_1-\pi_2=0\\\\H_a:\pi_1-\pi_2< 0$

The significance level is 0.01.

The sample 1 (experimental group), of size n1=100000 has a proportion of p1=0.0002.

$p_1=X_1/n_1=21/100000=0.0002$

The sample 2 (control group), of size n2=100000 has a proportion of p2=0.0003.

$p_2=X_2/n_2=30/100000=0.0003$

The difference between proportions is (p1-p2)=-0.0001.

$p_d=p_1-p_2=0.0002-0.0003=-0.0001$

The pooled proportion, needed to calculate the standard error, is:

$p=\dfrac{X_1+X_2}{n_1+n_2}=\dfrac{21+30}{100000+100000}=\dfrac{51}{200000}=0.00026$

The estimated standard error of the difference between means is computed using the formula:

$s_{p1-p2}=\sqrt{\dfrac{p(1-p)}{n_1}+\dfrac{p(1-p)}{n_2}}=\sqrt{\dfrac{0.00026*0.99974}{100000}+\dfrac{0.00026*0.99974}{100000}}\\\\\\s_{p1-p2}=\sqrt{0+0.0000000025}=\sqrt{0.0000000051}=0.000071$

Then, we can calculate the z-statistic as:

$z=\dfrac{p_d-(\pi_1-\pi_2)}{s_{p1-p2}}=\dfrac{-0.00009-0}{0.000071}=\dfrac{-0.00009}{0.000071}=-1.26$

This test is a left-tailed test, so the P-value for this test is calculated as (using a z-table):

$P-value=P(z$

As the P-value (0.104) is bigger than the significance level (0.01), the effect is not significant.

The null hypothesis failed to be rejected.

There is not enough evidence to support the claim that the vaccine was effective.

PLEASEEE SOMEONE HELP ME ON THIS!!!! It’s due in a couple hours

zimovet [89]

Answer:

x = 8.0 m

Step-by-step explanation:

With the angle presented, I'm assuming you know basic trigonometry. We know cosθ = adj/hyp from SOH CAH TOA. We have angle and hypotenuse, so plugging in those values we get cos(20°) = x / 8.5. Solve for x to get 8.5cos(20°) = 7.987387277 m = 8.0 m.

I’ll give u brainliest!!<br> what is the area of shape 1, 2 and 3

nevsk [136]

Answer:

Shape 1: 25.915

Shape 2: 102.85

Shape 3: 142

Step-by-step explanation:

For shape 1, you have to divide 7.1 to get half the width of the triangle. You get 3.55 from that, and then finding the triangle itself you have to do 7.3*3.55 to get 25.915. For shape 2, you first do the harder parts (the triangles) and since there is two of them we don't need to half the width of each triangle. But first to get the width, we need to do 20-17.4=2.6. But since there are 2 triangles we need to divide that by 2 to get 1.3. Then you multiply that by 5.5 to get the final area of both triangles which is 7.15. Next you simply find the rectangle which is 17.4*5.5=95.7. You add the triangles area to get 102.85. Finally for shape 3 you simply do 7.1*20=142.
