In a clinical trial of a certain​ drug, 17 subjects experience headaches among the 221 subjects treated with the drug. Construct a ​95% ​(Wald) confidence interval estimate for the proportion of treated subjects who experience​ headaches.

a. Find the best point estimate of the population proportion.
b. Identify the value of the margin of error E.
c. Construct the confidence interval.
d. write a statement that correctly interprets the confidence interval.

Answers

Answer 1

Solution :

Given :

n = 221

x = 17

a). [tex]$p=\frac{17}{221}$[/tex]

       = 0.076

b). At the 95 confidence interval

   Value of z = 1.96

  Margin of error

    [tex]$=1.96 \times \sqrt{\frac{p(1-p)}{n}}$[/tex]

    [tex]$=1.96 \times \sqrt{\frac{0.076(1-0.076)}{221}}$[/tex]

   [tex]$=1.96 \times \sqrt{\frac{0.076\times 0.924 }{221}}$[/tex]

   = 1.96 x 0.017

   = 0.03332

c). confidence interval

   = ( 0.076-0.033,  0.076+0.033)

   = ( 0.043, 0.109 )

d). The confidence interval does not contain null value, so it is significant.

what is the length of GN, given that figure LMNO is a square PLZ HELP!!!!!

Answers

Answer:

A. 4

Step-by-step explanation:

The diagonals are also congruent to each other. Diagonals of a square bisect each other. This implies that:

MO bisects LN, thereby dividing LN into two equal segments, LG and GN.

Thus, LG = GN.

Since the length of LG = 4, therefore:

(Hint: Let x be the probability Bob wins in a duel against Eve alone, assuming he fires first. If Bob misses his first shot and then Eve misses her first shot, what is the probability Bob wins in terms of x

Answers

Answer: Hello your question is incomplete attached below is the missing

n ( 1 + n )

Step-by-step explanation:

P( Bob hits target ) = 1/3

P( Eve hits target ) = 2/3

P( Carol hits target ) = 1

Compute the P that Bob wins in a duel against Eve alone

P(Bob hits the target in first shot ) = n = 1/3

P(Bob hits the target in second shot ) = n^2 = ( 1/3 * 1/3 ) = 1/9

hence the probability of Bob winning( i.e. P( Bob wins Event E1  ) = n + n^2 = n ( 1 + n )

How many square inches of sheet metal are used to make the vent transition​ shown? (The ends are​ open.)

Answers

Answer:

Area of the metal sheet required = 364 square inches

Step-by-step explanation:

Area of the metal sheet required = Surface area of the lateral sides of the vent transition

Since, lateral sides of the vent is in the shape of a trapezoid,

Therefore, surface area of the vent = 4(Surface area of one lateral side)

                                                           = [tex]4[\frac{1}{2}(b_1+b_2)h][/tex]

Here, [tex]b_1[/tex] and [tex]b_2[/tex] are two parallel sides and [tex]h[/tex] is the distance between these parallel sides.

Surface area of the vent = [tex]4[\frac{1}{2}(8+5)14][/tex]

                                         = 364 square inches

Therefore, area of the metal sheet required = 364 square inches

investing $12,000 in a savings account at 6% annual interest compounded monthly will result in approximately how much money after five years? use formula A 0 P(1 + r/m) ^mt

Answers

Answer:

$16186.20

Step-by-step explanation:

Assuming that P represents the initial amount, A represents the end amount, r represents the annual interest rate, m represents the amount of times compounded per year, and t represents the amount of years, we can write this as

A = P(1+r/m)^(mt)

Since 12,000 is invested, that is the initial amount. To find the interest rate as a decimal from a percent (as we need it in decimal form for this formula), we can divide the percent by 100 to get 6%/100 = 0.06 as our interest rate. Because there are 12 months in a year, the interest is compounded 12 times a year, and since it takes 5 years, t=5. Our formula is now

A = 12000 * (1+0.06/12)^(12 * 5)

A = 12000 * (1+0.06/12) ^(60)

A = 16186.20 rounded to the nearest cent

The survey included a random sample of 640 western residents and 540 northeastern residents. 39% of the western residents and 51% of the northeastern residents reported that they were completely satisfied with their local telephone service. Find the 99% confidence interval for the difference in two proportions

Answers

Answer:

The 99% confidence interval for the difference in two proportions is (0.0456, 0.1944).

Step-by-step explanation:

Before building the confidence interval, we need to understand the central limit theorem and subtraction of normal variables.

Central Limit Theorem

The Central Limit Theorem establishes that, for a normally distributed random variable X, with mean [tex]\mu[/tex] and standard deviation [tex]\sigma[/tex], the sampling distribution of the sample means with size n can be approximated to a normal distribution with mean [tex]\mu[/tex] and standard deviation [tex]s = \frac{\sigma}{\sqrt{n}}[/tex].

For a skewed variable, the Central Limit Theorem can also be applied, as long as n is at least 30.

For a proportion p in a sample of size n, the sampling distribution of the sample proportion will be approximately normal with mean [tex]\mu = p[/tex] and standard deviation [tex]s = \sqrt{\frac{p(1-p)}{n}}[/tex]

Subtraction between normal variables:

When two normal variables are subtracted, the mean is the difference of the means, while the standard deviation is the square root of the sum of the variances.

Western residents:

39% out of 640, so:

[tex]p_1 = 0.39[/tex]

[tex]s_1 = \sqrt{\frac{0.39*0.61}{640}} = 0.0193[/tex]

Eastern residents:

51% out of 540, so:

[tex]p_2 = 0.51[/tex]

[tex]s_2 = \sqrt{\frac{0.51*0.49}{540}} = 0.0215[/tex]

Distribution of the difference:

[tex]p = p_2 - p_1 = 0.51 - 0.39 = 0.12[/tex]

[tex]s = \sqrt{s_2^2+s_1^2} = \sqrt{0.0215^2+0.0193^2} = 0.0289[/tex]

Confidence interval:

[tex]p \pm zs[/tex]

In which

z is the z-score that has a p-value of [tex]1 - \frac{\alpha}{2}[/tex].

99% confidence level

So [tex]\alpha = 0.01[/tex], z is the value of Z that has a p-value of [tex]1 - \frac{0.01}{2} = 0.995[/tex], so [tex]Z = 2.575[/tex].

The lower bound of the interval is:

[tex]p - zs = 0.12 - 2.575*0.0289 = 0.0456[/tex]

The upper bound of the interval is:

[tex]p + zs = 0.12 + 2.575*0.0289 = 0.1944[/tex]

The 99% confidence interval for the difference in two proportions is (0.0456, 0.1944).

Melinda takes out a loan to purchase a car. The balance on her loan after x months is represented by the equation y = 10,000 – 250x and the value of the car after x months is represented by y = 8,000 – 50x. Which statement describes when Melinda’s loan will be equal to the value of the car?

After 10 months, the loan and value of the car will both be equal to $7,500.
After 12 months, the loan and value of the car will both be equal to $7,000.
After 14 months, the loan and value of the car will both be equal to $6,500.
After 16 months, the loan and value of the car will both be equal to $6,000.

Answers

Answer:

After 10 months, the loan and value of the car will both be equal to $7,500.

Step-by-step explanation:

Value of the loan after x months:

[tex]y_l = 10000 - 250x[/tex]

Value of the car after x months:

[tex]y_c = 8000 - 50x[/tex]

Which statement describes when Melinda’s loan will be equal to the value of the car?

They are equal when:

[tex]y_l = y_c[/tex]

So

[tex]10000 - 250x = 8000 - 50x[/tex]

[tex]200x = 2000[/tex]

[tex]x = \frac{2000}{200}[/tex]

[tex]x = 10[/tex]

Equal after 10 months:

Value of [tex]y(10) = 8000 - 50(10) = 7500[/tex]

Thus, the correct option is:

After 10 months, the loan and value of the car will both be equal to $7,500.

Dependent variable = Total daily cost

Independent variable = number of items manufactured

2500 ;

9750

Step-by-step explanation:

Given the cost function in. A manufacturing company :

C(x) = 7.25x + 2500 ; Where

C(x) = total daily cost

x = number of items manufactured

The Independent variable is the variable whose value causes a change in the measured variable, this is the number of items manufactured, and the variable which charges as the predictor variable charges is the dependent variable (Total daily cost).

2.)

C(0) ;

C(x) = 7.25x + 2500

Put x = 0

C(0) = 7.25(0) + 2500

Cost = 2500

This is the total daily cost even if no items are produced, this is probably the fixed cost of daily production.

3.)

C(1000)

C(x) = 7.25x + 2500

Put x = 1000

C(0) = 7.25(1000) + 2500

Cost = 7250 + 2500

Cost = 9750

This is the total cost including variable cost of producing 1000 items.
