A new vaccine was recently tested to see if it could prevent the painful and recurrent ear infections that many infants suffer from. The Lancet, a medical journal, reported a study in which babies about a year old were randomly divided into two groups. One group received vaccinations; the other did not. During the following year, only 333 of 2455 vaccinated children had ear infections, compared to 499 of 2452 unvaccinated children in the control group. a) Are the conditions for inference satisfied? b) Find a 95% confidence interval for the difference in rates of ear infection. c) Use your confidence interval to explain whether you think the vaccine is effective.

different animals have different fields of view. humans can generally see a 180° arc in front of them. horses can see 215° arc. dogs can see a 240° arc. a dog, horse, and rider are in heavy fog , so they can see only 25 yards in any direction. what is the area of the riders field of view?

Answers

Answer:

The area of the riders field of view is 987.5 square yards.

Step-by-step explanation:

The human has a 180° arc view. If the rider can see only 25 yards, the area of the riders field of view is a semi-circle (180° arc) of 25 yards of radius.

The semi-circle of 25 yards of radius has an area of:

f(5) = 5² + 5 = 30

So now you are finding,

f(f(5)) => f(30)

obteber dos números tales que la suma de uno de ellos con el doble del cuadrado del otro sea igual a 7776 , y el producto de ambos sea máximo

Answers

Answer: the numbers are 5,111.3 and 35.74

Step-by-step explanation:

I will answer this in English.

We have the numbers X and Y, ad we have that:

X + 2*Y^2 = 7776

X = 7776 -  2*Y^2

Now we also want that the product of X and Y is a maximum.

The equation of maximum product is

P(Y) = X*Y = (7776 -  2*Y^2)*Y

       = 7776*Y - 2*Y^3

Now, to find the maximum we must derivate and find the value where P'(Y) is equal to 0

P'(Y) = 7776 - 6*Y^2 = 0

7776 = 6*Y^2

Y = √(7776/6) = 35.74

Now, we replace this value in the equation for X and we can find X:

X = 7776 -  2*Y^2  = X = 7776 -  2*(35.74)^2 = 5,111.3

Given the function f(x)=2(x-1)^2+3

a)What is the vertex?
b)What is the axis of symmetry?

Answers

Answer:

a) (1,3)

b) x=1

Step-by-step explanation:

The general form of a parabola in vertex form is f(x)=a(x-h)^2+k, where h is the x coordinate of the vertex, and k is the y coordinate, while a indicates how "squished" the graph is, or how quickly it grows in relation to the parent graph. In this case, h is shown to be 1, and k is 3, meaning that the vertex is at (1,3). The axis of symmetry , for a vertical parabola, just runs vertically through the vertex, meaning that in this case it is at x=1. Hope this helps!

Answer:

(1,3) and y-axis

Step-by-step explanation:

The vertex is the value of x at maximum or minimum point

At maximum point

dy/ dx = 0;

dy/dx = 4(x-1)= 0

=>x= 1 and is the vertex

Y when x = 1; we substitute x=1 in the original equation.

f(x) =y =2(x-1)^2+3

y = 2(1-1)^2 +3

y = 0 + 3= 3

The vertex is (1,3)

2.

A symmetrical equation is given by

b^2 = 4ac

Looking at the equation above x has an order of 2 meaning a possibility of cutting the x axis on two values of x

Hence the axis of symmetry is the y-axis

Assuming this was the expression; the axis of rotation would have been the x-axis.

A bag contains 26 tiles letters a through z find the probability of drawing two vowels with replacement find the probability of drawing two vowels without replacement round the answers to the nearest thousandths which event is independent which event is dependent

Answers

Answer:

With replacement, 0.037, independent

Without replacement, 0.031, dependent

Step-by-step explanation:

There are 5 vowels (not including y).

The probability the first letter is a vowel is 5/26.

With replacement, the probability the second letter is a vowel is also 5/26.

The total probability is (5/26) (5/26) = 0.037.

Since the first letter is replaced, the probability of the second letter is not affected, so the events are independent.

Without replacement, the probability the second letter is a vowel is 4/25.

The total probability is (5/26) (4/25) = 0.031.

Since the first letter is not replaced, the probability of the second letter is affected, so the events are dependent.

Medical researchers conducted a national random sample of the body mass index (BMI) of 654 women aged 20 to 29 in the U.S. The distribution of BMI is known to be right skewed. In this sample the mean BMI is 26.8 with a standard deviation of 7.42. Are researchers able to conclude that the mean BMI in the U.S. is less than 27? Conduct a hypothesis test at the 5% level of significance using StatCrunch (directions) or calculating T and using the T-Distribution Calculator above. Based on your hypothesis test, what can we conclude?

Answers

Answer:

Check the explanation

Step-by-step explanation:

The distribution is right skewed but the sample size is large so we can use t - test here. The statistical software output for this problem is:

One sample T hypothesis test:

μ : Mean of population

[tex]H_0[/tex] : μ = 27

[tex]H_A[/tex] : μ < 27

Hypothesis test results:

Mean         Sample Mean          Std. Err.        DF         T-Stat         P-value

μ                         26.8            0.29014496     653   -0.68931061   0.2454

Since p - value > 0.05, do not reject .

Hence,

With a mean BMI of 26.8, the data supports the claim that the average BMI is less than 27, but the difference is not statistically significant. We fail to reject the null hypothesis that the mean BMI for women aged 20 to 29 in U.S. is 27.

Step-by-step explanation:

An appliance manufacturer claims to have developed a compact microwave oven that consumes a mean of no more than 250 W. From previous studies, it is believed that power consumption for microwave ovens is normally distributed with a population standard deviation of 15 W. A consumer group has decided to try to discover if the claim appears true. They take a sample of 20 microwave ovens and find that they consume a mean of 257.3 W. 1) The appropriate hypotheses to determine if the manufacturer's claim appears reasonable are H subscript 0 colon________ and H subscript 1 colon________. (2 points) 2) For a test with a level of significance of 0.05, the critical value would be ________. (2 point) 3) The value of the test statistic is ________. (4 points) 4) Is there evidence that a compact microwave oven consumes a mean of no more than 250 W? (2 points)

Answers

Answer:

We conclude that a compact microwave oven consumes a mean of more than 250 W.

Step-by-step explanation:

We are given that an appliance manufacturer claims to have developed a compact microwave oven that consumes a mean of no more than 250 W with a population standard deviation of 15 W.

They take a sample of 20 microwave ovens and find that they consume a mean of 257.3 W.

Let [tex]\mu[/tex] = mean power consumption for microwave ovens.

So, Null Hypothesis, [tex]H_0[/tex] : [tex]\mu[/tex] [tex]\leq[/tex] 250 W     {means that a compact microwave oven consumes a mean of no more than 250 W}

Alternate Hypothesis, [tex]H_A[/tex] : [tex]\mu[/tex] > 250 W     {means that a compact microwave oven consumes a mean of more than 250 W}

The test statistics that would be used here One-sample z test statistics as we know about the population standard deviation;

                                T.S. =  [tex]\frac{\bar X-\mu}{\frac{\sigma}{\sqrt{n} } }[/tex]  ~ N(0,1)

where, [tex]\bar X[/tex] = sample mean power consumption for ovens = 257.3 W

            σ = population standard deviation = 15 W

            n = sample of microwave ovens = 20

So, the test statistics  =  [tex]\frac{257.3-250}{\frac{15}{\sqrt{20} } }[/tex]

                                      =  2.176

The value of z test statistics is 2.176.

Now, at 0.05 significance level the z table gives critical value of 1.645 for right-tailed test.

Since our test statistic is more than the critical value of t as 2.176 > 1.645, so we have sufficient evidence to reject our null hypothesis as it will fall in the rejection region due to which we reject our null hypothesis.

Therefore, we conclude that a compact microwave oven consumes a mean of more than 250 W.

Answers

Answer:

Area = base × height

31.5 = base × 6.3

base = 5 ft

Answer:

5 feet

Step-by-step explanation:

The area formula is A = b * h, where A is the area, b is the length of the base, and h is the height. Since we want to know the length of the base, we are solving for b. Thankfully, we know that A = 31.5 and h = 6.3. When we plug them into the equation, we get 31.5 = b * 6.3. Because we want b on one side without any coefficients and numbers on the other side, we can divide the equation by 6.3 on both sides. The equation will remain the same because we are doing the same thing to both sides. When we divide, we get b = 31.5 / 6.3 = 5 feet. Hope this helps!
