One variable examined is the survival rate 10 years after tagging. The scientists observed that 10 of the 50 metal tagged pengui

ns survived, compared to 18 of the 50 electronic tagged penguins. Construct a 90% confidence interval for the difference in proportion surviving between the metal and electronic tagged penguins (pM − pE). Interpret the result.

Answer:  90% confidence interval would be (-0.2483,-0.0717)

Step-by-step explanation:

Since we have given that

n₁ = 50

Number of metal tagged penguins survived = 10

So, p_m=\dfrac{10}{50}=0.2

n₂ = 50

Number of electronic tagged penguins = 18

So, p_e=\dfrac{18}{50}=0.36

So, at 90% confidence interval, z = 1.28

So, interval would be

(p_m-p_e)\pm z\sqrt{\dfrac{p_m(1-p_m)}{n}+\dfrac{p_e(1-p_e)}{n}}\\\\=(0.2-0.36)\pm 1.28\sqrt{\dfrac{0.2\times 0.8}{50}+\dfrac{0.36\times 0.64}{50}}\\\\=-0.16\pm 0.0883\\\\=(-0.16-0.0883,-0.16+0.0883)\\\\=(-0.2483,-0.0717)

Hence, 90% confidence interval would be

(-0.2483,-0.0717)

Is 4 a factor of 93 explain your answer using words
Usimov [2.4K]

Answer:

no

Step-by-step explanation:

Here we will show you two different methods you can use to determine if 4 is a factor of 93.

The first method entails simply listing all factors of 93 and then seeing if 4 is one of them. The factors of 93 are 1, 3, 31, and 93. Looking at the list, you see that 4 is not on the list, and the answer to "Is 4 a factor of 93?" is therefore no.

For the second and perhaps easier method, we divide 93 by 4 to see if the quotient is a whole number or fractional number. If the quotient is a whole number, then 4 is a factor of 93. If the quotient is a fractional number, then 4 is not a factor of 93.

93 divided by 4 is 23.25 which is a fractional number. Thus, once again, the answer to "Is 4 a factor of 93?" is no.

Consider the equation: 3(–4n – 9) = 21
hram777 [196]

Answer: N=-4

Step-by-step explanation:

STEP

1

:

STEP

2

:

Pulling out like terms

2.1     Pull out like factors :

  -4n - 9  =   -1 • (4n + 9)

Equation at the end of step

2

:

 -3 • (4n + 9) -  21  = 0

STEP

3

:

STEP

4

:

Pulling out like terms

4.1     Pull out like factors :

  -12n - 48  =   -12 • (n + 4)

Equation at the end of step

4

:

 -12 • (n + 4)  = 0

STEP

5

:

Equations which are never true:

5.1      Solve :    -12   =  0

This equation has no solution.

A a non-zero constant never equals zero.

Solving a Single Variable Equation:

5.2      Solve  :    n+4 = 0

Subtract  4  from both sides of the equation :

                     n = -4

One solution was found :

n = -4
