Answer:

Let the age of Aman's son is x years.

So the age of Aman will be 3x years.

Ten years ago, the age of Aman's son = x - 10 and Aman's age = 3x - 10.

So according to question,

5(x - 10) = 3x - 10

or 5x - 50 = 3x - 10

Transposing 3x to the LHS and -50 to the RHS:

5x - 3x = -10 + 50 = 40

or 2x = 40

or x = 20

So Aman's age = 3x = 60 years and

Aman's son's age = x = 20 years.

A College Alcohol Study has interviewed random samples of students at four-year colleges. In the most recent study, 494 of 1000

Vinil7 [7]

Answer:

The 95% confidence interval for the difference between the proportion of women who drink alcohol and the proportion of men who drink alcohol is (-0.102, -0.014) or (-10.2%, -1.4%).

Step-by-step explanation:

We want to calculate the bounds of a 95% confidence interval of the difference between proportions.

For a 95% CI, the critical value for z is z=1.96.

The sample 1 (women), of size n1=1000 has a proportion of p1=0.494.

$p_1=X_1/n_1=494/1000=0.494$

The sample 2 (men), of size n2=1000 has a proportion of p2=0.552.

$p_2=X_2/n_2=552/1000=0.552$

The difference between proportions is (p1-p2)=-0.058.

$p_d=p_1-p_2=0.494-0.552=-0.058$

The pooled proportion, needed to calculate the standard error, is:

$p=\dfrac{X_1+X_2}{n_1+n_2}=\dfrac{494+552}{1000+1000}=\dfrac{1046}{2000}=0.523$

The estimated standard error of the difference between means is computed using the formula:

$s_{p1-p2}=\sqrt{\dfrac{p(1-p)}{n_1}+\dfrac{p(1-p)}{n_2}}=\sqrt{\dfrac{0.523*0.477}{1000}+\dfrac{0.523*0.477}{1000}}\\\\\\s_{p1-p2}=\sqrt{0.000249+0.000249}=\sqrt{0.000499}=0.022$

Then, the margin of error is:

$MOE=z \cdot s_{p1-p2}=1.96\cdot 0.022=0.0438$

Then, the lower and upper bounds of the confidence interval are:

$LL=(p_1-p_2)-z\cdot s_{p1-p2} = -0.058-0.0438=-0.102\\\\UL=(p_1-p_2)+z\cdot s_{p1-p2}= -0.058+0.0438=-0.014$

The 95% confidence interval for the difference between proportions is (-0.102, -0.014).

The sum of 5 consecutive integers is 265. What is the fifth number in this sequence ?

Yanka [14]

Hello,
Let's assume n,n+1,n+2,n+3,n+4 the 5 numbers

n+(n+1)+...+(n+4)=5n+10=265
5n=265-10
5n=255
n=51
The 5th number is 51+4=55

Find the perimeter of a rectangle that is 2 and 1/2 yards by 4 and 1/2 yards

Travka [436]

The answer is 14. First, get both numbers and add them twice (2.5+2.5+4.5+4.5) or (2.5 * 2 + 4.5 * 2). Then you should get 2 numbers which are 9 and 5. Then it should be 14, which is the answer.
