Investigators conducting a study regarding the effects of water pollution and peptic ulcer disease obtained the following data:

A population of 9000 men and women, aged 45, were examined on January 1, 1985. Of these people, 6000 were exposed to toxins in the local water supply and 3000 were not. At the time of this exam, 90 cases of peptic ulcer disease were discovered; 60 of these cases were among those exposed to toxins in their local water. All the people at the initial exam who were free from peptic ulcer disease were followed with repeat exams over the following year. This study revealed 268 new cases in the total group; of these, 238 cases were among those exposed to toxins in their local water. A. Calculate the prevalence per 1000 people of peptic ulcer disease on January 1, 1986: Among the exposed Among the unexposed B. Calculate the 1985 incidence rate/1000 people of peptic ulcer disease: Among the exposed Among the non exposed

Answer:

Kindly check explanation

Step-by-step explanation:

The prevalence per 1000 among the exposed :

Total number of diseases among those exposed = 60 + 238 = 298

Prevalence per 1000 among the exposed :

(298 / 9000) * 1000 = 33.11

Prevalence per 1000 among the non exposed :

((90 - 60) + (268 - 238)) / 3000

(60 / 3000) * 1000 = 20

Incidence rate per 1000 among the exposed :

238 / 5940 * 1000

0.0400673 * 1000 = 40.07

Incidence rate per 1000 among the unexposed :

((90 - 30) / (3000-30)) * 1000

(60/2970) * 1000 = 20.2

Here it the question
Cerrena [4.2K]

Answer:

Variable A and variable B have a negative linear association.

Step-by-step explanation:

We are asked to find which best describes the association between variable A and variable B.

From the scatter plot we could clearly see that as the value of variable A are increasing the corresponding value of variable B is decreasing.

Also we could see that the points are linear.

Hence, the relationship that best describes variable A and variable B is:

Negative linear Association

1) At a diner, the cost for a specialty waffle and a hashbrown is $9.50. The cost for 2 specialty
klemol [59]

9514 1404 393

Answer:

  • waffle $8
  • hashbrowns $1.50

Step-by-step explanation:

Using w and h for the costs of a waffle and hashbrowns, respectively, we can write the equations for the purchase amounts as ...

  w + h = 9.50

  2w + 3h = 20.50

Subtracting twice the first equation from the second gives ...

  (2w +3h) -2(w +h) = (20.50) -2(9.50)

  h = 1.50 . . . . . . simplify

  w = 9.50 -h = 8.00 . . . . . find w using the first equation

The cost of a waffle is $8.00; the cost of hashbrowns is $1.50.

Which is the graph of the function f(x)= negative square root x
Vsevolod [243]
First, note that \sqrt{x} is always positive (except for x=0), so -\sqrt{x} must be always negative.

Thus, the only plausible graphs are 1 and 3 since they are below the x-axis.

Now, \sqrt{x} and -\sqrt{x} are only defined for x≥0, because only for these x'es we can take the square root. 

Note that the third graph has domain (-infinity, 0], so it is not the right one, while 1 is ok.


Answer: first graph
