Ten engineering schools in the United States were surveyed. The sample contained 250 electrical engineers, 80 being women; 175 c

steposvetlana [31]

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.

Solve for x in the simplest form 11=1/2x+8

lesya692 [45]

Answer:

x = 6

Step-by-step explanation:

11 = 1/2x + 8

-> Move 8 to left side

11 - 8 = 1/2x

3 = 1/2x

->We can switch sides so 1/2x is on the left and 3 is on the right

1/2x = 3

x = 3 x 2/1

x = 6
