According to the Insurance Institute for Highway Safety, the national rate for 16-year-old males was 210 accidents for every 100

0 drivers (21%) during the year 2000. In a large city in the Midwest, a random sample of 150 16-year-old male drivers found that 25 of them had been in an accident during the year 2000. Does this city have a lower proportion of accidents by 16-year-old male drivers than the national proportion?

Answer:

Yes.  The city has a lower proportion of accidents by 16-year-old male drivers than the national proportion (16.7% compared to 21%).

Step-by-step explanation:

a) Data and Calculations:

Number of 16-year-old males involved in driver accident during year 2000 = 210

Sample number of drivers = 1,000

National rate of accidents for 16-year-old males for every 1,000 drivers = 21% (210/1,000 * 100)

Random sample of 16-year-old male drivers in a Midwest city = 150

Number of them involved in driver-accidents = 25

Proportion of 16-year-old males involved in driver-accidents = 25/150 * 100 = 16.7%

The city's 16.7% proportion is lower than the national proportion of 21%.

Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:

4). a). If the diagonals of a parallelogram are congruent, then it must be a RECTANGLE.

b). If the diagonals of a parallelogram are perpendicular, then it must be a SQUARE.

c). If the diagonals of a parallelogram bisect the angles of the parallelogram, then it must be a RHOMBUS.

d). If the diagonals of a parallelogram are perpendicular and congruent, then it must be a SQUARE.

e). If a parallelogram has four congruent sides, then it must be a SQUARE.

5). Given quadrilateral SELF is a rhombus.

a). All sides of a rhombus are equal,

   Therefore, ES = EL = 25

b). Diagonals of a rhombus bisects the opposite angles,

   Therefore, m∠ELS = m∠FLS

    3x - 2 = 2x + 7

    3x - 2x = 7 + 2

    x = 9

c). Diagonals of the rhombus bisect the opposite angles, and adjacent angles are supplementary.

m∠ELF = 2(m∠ELS) = 2(2y - 9)

m∠LES = 2(m∠LEF) = 2(3y + 9)

And 2(2y - 9) + 2(3y + 9) = 180

(2y - 9) + (3y + 9) = 90

5y = 90

y = 18
