According to recent UN figures, the annual gun homicide rate is 62.4 per one million residents in the US and 1.3 per one million

residents in Britain. Compare the proportion of residents killed annually by guns using the (a) difference of proportions, (b) relative risk. Which measure is more useful for describing the strength of association

Answer:

P_D=61.1*10^{-4}

R_r=480

Step-by-step explanation:

From the question we are told that

Homicide rate in US R_U=62.4\ per\ one\ million

Homicide rate in Britain R_B=1.3\ per\ one\ million

Generally the equation for probability of homicide is mathematically given as

P=\frac{R}{10^6}

Generally the equation for probability of homicide in US is mathematically given as

P_U=\frac{62.4}{10^6}

P_U=62.4*10^{-4}

Generally the equation for probability of homicide in Britain is mathematically given as

P_B=\frac{1.3}{10^6}

P_B=1.3*10^{-5}

a)Generally the difference b/w the probabilities P_D is mathematically given as

P_D=P_U-P_B

P_D=62.4*10^{-4}-1.3*10^{-5}

P_D=61.1*10^{-4}

Therefore US annual homicide is P_D=61.1*10^{-4} greater than Britain's

b)Generally the Relative risk is R_r is mathematically given as

R_r=\frac{P_U}{P_B}

R_r=\frac{62.4*10^{-4}}{1.3*10^{-5}}

R_r=480

The exchange rate in some prehistoric village was 6 jagged rocks for every 2 smooth pebbles. Also, one shiny rock could be trade
Scrat [10]

30 Jagged rocks are the same 3 shiny rocks using the exchange rates provided(i.e. option D)

What is an exchange rate?

Exchange rate means the rate at which one item exchanges hands with another, for instance, in this case, 6 jagged rocks are equivalent to 2 smooth pebbles.

6 jagged rocks=2 smooth pebbles

divide both sides by 2

6/2 jagged rocks=2/2 smooth pebbles

3 jagged rocks=1 smooth pebble

We can rewrite as below:

1 jagged rock=1/3 smooth pebble

30jagged rocks=1/3*30 smooth pebbles

30 jagged rocks=10 smooth pebbles

Now we need to convert 10 smooth pebbles to shiny rock equivalence

3 smooth pebbles=1 shiny rock

1 smooth pebble=1/3 shiny rock

10 smooth pebbles=1/3*10 shiny rocks

10 smooth pebbles=3 shiny rocks( even though it is 3.33, but the final answer should be rounded to a whole number)

Which equations represent the line that is perpendicular to the line 5x − 2y = −6 and passes through the point (5, −4)? Select t
Pepsi [2]

Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:

Two lines are perpendicular if the first line has a slope of m and the second line has a slope of \frac{1}{-m}.

With this information, we first need to figure out what the slope of the line is that we're given, and then we can determine what the slope of the line we're trying to find is:

5x - 2y = -6

-2y = -5x - 6

y = \frac{5}{2}x + 3

We now know that m = \frac{5}{2} for the first line, which means that the slope of the second line is m = \frac{-2}{5}. With this, we have the following equation for our new line:

y = \frac{-2}{5}x + C

where C is the Y-intercept that we now need to determine with the coordinates given in the problem statement, (5, -4):

y = \frac{-2}{5}x + C

(-4) = \frac{-2}{5}(5) + C

-4 = -2 + C

C = -2

Finally, we can create our line:

y = \frac{-2}{5}x - 2

5y = -2x - 10

2x + 5y = -10
