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

As an aid to the establishment of personnel requirements, the director of a hospital wishes to estimate the mean number of peopl
GenaCL600 [577]

Answer:

n = 66.564

Step-by-step explanation:

  1. Because the population is unknown, we will apply the following formula to find the sample size:

n= (\frac{zS}{E} )^{2}

Where:

z = confidence level score.

S = standard deviation.

E = error range.

   2. We will find each of these three data and replace them in the formula.

"z" theoretically is a value that measures how many standard deviations an element has to the mean. For each confidence level there is an associated z value. In the question, this level is 99%, which is equivalent to a z value of 2.58. To find this figure it is not necessary to follow any mathematical procedure, it is enough to make use of a z-score table, which shows the values ​​for any confidence interval.

The standard deviation is already provided by the question, it is S = 100.

Finally, "E" is the acceptable limit of sampling error. In the example, we can find this data. Let us note that in the end it says that the director wishes to estimate the mean number of admissions to within 1 admission, this means that she is willing to tolerate a miscalculation of just 1 admission.

Once this data is identified, we replace in the formula:

n=(\frac{(2.58)(100)}{1} )^{2}

    3. The corresponding mathematical operations are developed:

n=(\frac{258}{1} )^{2}

n= (258)^{2}

n= 66.564

Match the correct equation for the variable n with * for number of times compound interest is figured. quarterly d.___ semi-annu
Dvinal [7]

Answer:

quarterly N = 4

semi-annually N = 2

Monthly N = 12

annually N = 1

Step-by-step explanation:

Given the following compound interest times :

N = number of times interest is compounded per period :

A period is regarded as a whole year.

Interest compounded;

QUARTERLY = Every 4 months per period = 12/3= 4

SEMI ANNUALLY = Every 6 months per period = 12/6 = 2

MONTHLY = Every month = 12 / 1 = 12

ANNUALLY = Every 12 months = 12 /12 = 1
