Answer:

y = 4x - 7

Step-by-step explanation:

Given the following data;

Points (x, y) = (4, 9)

Slope, m = 4

To write the equation in point-slope form;

The equation of straight line is y = mx + c

Where;

m is the slope.

x and y are the points

c is the intercept.

First of all, we would find the intercept c;

9 = 4*4 + c

9 = 16 + c

c = 9 - 16

c = -7

Next, we write the equation in point-slope form;

m = 4 and c = -7

y = 4x - 7

Answer:

$(0.582-0.485) - 1.64 \sqrt{\frac{0.582(1-0.582)}{144796} +\frac{0.485(1-0.485)}{211693}}=0.0942$

$(0.582-0.485) + 1.64 \sqrt{\frac{0.582(1-0.582)}{144796} +\frac{0.485(1-0.485)}{211693}}=0.09978$

And the 90% confidence interval would be given (0.0942;0.09978).

We are confident at 90% that the difference between the two proportions is between $0.0942 \leq p_A -p_B \leq 0.09978$

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".

$p_A$ represent the real population proportion female for Biology

$\hat p_A =\frac{84199}{144796}=0.582$ represent the estimated proportion female for biology

$n_A=144796$ is the sample size for A

$p_B$ represent the real population proportion female for calculus AB

$\hat p_B =\frac{102598}{211693}=0.485$ represent the estimated proportion female for Calculus AB

$n_B=211693$ is the sample size required for B

$z$ represent the critical value for the margin of error

The population proportion have the following distribution

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

The confidence interval for the difference of two proportions would be given by this formula

$(\hat p_A -\hat p_B) \pm z_{\alpha/2} \sqrt{\frac{\hat p_A(1-\hat p_A)}{n_A} +\frac{\hat p_B (1-\hat p_B)}{n_B}}$

For the 90% confidence interval the value of $\alpha=1-0.90=0.1$ and $\alpha/2=0.05$ , with that value we can find the quantile required for the interval in the normal standard distribution.

$z_{\alpha/2}=1.64$

And replacing into the confidence interval formula we got:

$(0.582-0.485) - 1.64 \sqrt{\frac{0.582(1-0.582)}{144796} +\frac{0.485(1-0.485)}{211693}}=0.0942$

$(0.582-0.485) + 1.64 \sqrt{\frac{0.582(1-0.582)}{144796} +\frac{0.485(1-0.485)}{211693}}=0.09978$

And the 90% confidence interval would be given (0.0942;0.09978).

We are confident at 90% that the difference between the two proportions is between $0.0942 \leq p_A -p_B \leq 0.09978$

the answer is D.

I dont know how to add work for a question like this, however, I know how I'd show work....

Draw a graph and stick a point in the IV quadrant and label it "original". Then next to it, draw another graph and stick a point in the III quadrant and label it "reflection"

TIP: if you do that, make sure the points are in the same location in each quadrant
