Step-by-step explanation:

Mathematical explanations are explanations in which mathematics plays a crucial role. There is a rich historical tradition of debates about mathematical explanation, dating back to Aristotle. One central strand of this tradition considers the significance of explanatory goals for pure mathematics.

Of 1000 randomly selected cases of lung cancer, 823 resulted in death within 10 years.

Arada [10]

Answer:

a) $0.823 - 1.96\sqrt{\frac{0.823(1-0.823)}{1000}}=0.799$

$0.823 + 1.96\sqrt{\frac{0.823(1-0.823)}{1000}}=0.847$

The 95% confidence interval would be given by (0.799;0.847)

b) $n=\frac{0.823(1-0.823)}{(\frac{0.03}{1.96})^2}=621.79$

And rounded up we have that n=622

c) $n=\frac{0.5(1-0.5)}{(\frac{0.03}{1.96})^2}=1067.11$

And rounded up we have that n=1068

Step-by-step explanation:

Part a

$\hat p=\frac{823}{1000}=0.823$

In order to find the critical value we need to take in count that we are finding the interval for a proportion, so on this case we need to use the z distribution. Since our interval is at 95% of confidence, our significance level would be given by $\alpha=1-0.95=0.05$ and $\alpha/2 =0.025$ . And the critical value would be given by:

$z_{\alpha/2}=-1.96, z_{1-\alpha/2}=1.96$

The confidence interval for the mean is given by the following formula:

$\hat p \pm z_{\alpha/2}\sqrt{\frac{\hat p (1-\hat p)}{n}}$

If we replace the values obtained we got:

$0.823 - 1.96\sqrt{\frac{0.823(1-0.823)}{1000}}=0.799$

$0.823 + 1.96\sqrt{\frac{0.823(1-0.823)}{1000}}=0.847$

The 95% confidence interval would be given by (0.799;0.847)

Part b

The margin of error for the proportion interval is given by this formula:

$ME=z_{\alpha/2}\sqrt{\frac{\hat p (1-\hat p)}{n}}$ (a)

And on this case we have that $ME =\pm 0.03$ and we are interested in order to find the value of n, if we solve n from equation (a) we got:

$n=\frac{\hat p (1-\hat p)}{(\frac{ME}{z})^2}$ (b)

And replacing into equation (b) the values from part a we got:

$n=\frac{0.823(1-0.823)}{(\frac{0.03}{1.96})^2}=621.79$

And rounded up we have that n=622

Part c

$n=\frac{0.5(1-0.5)}{(\frac{0.03}{1.96})^2}=1067.11$

And rounded up we have that n=1068

Given the function f(x)=8+2x2, calculate the following values:

Alona [7]

Simply each equation is manipulated by the x in the way that the function is telling you to

x = a
f (a) = 8 + 2(a)^2

x = a + h
f (a + h) = 8 + 2( a + h) ^ 2

the last case is represented by two scenarios
x = a + h ... x = a/h

f (a + h) - f( a / h) =
(8 + 2(a + h) ^2) - (8 + 2(a / h)^2)
