National statistics show that 23% of men smoke and 18.5% of women smoke. A random sample of 175 men indicated that 45 were smokers, and a random sample of 155 women surveyed indicated that 42 smoked. Construct a 98% confidence interval for the true difference in proportions of male and female smokers.

Answers

Answer 1

Answer:

98% C.I. = [-0.1270, 0.0994]

Step-by-step explanation:

Here

p1= proportion of men smokers

p1= 45/175= 0.2571

p2= proportion of women smokers

p2= 42/155= 0.2709

1)  Choose the significance level ∝= 0.02

2) The formula for confidence interval is

(p1^- p2^)- z ∝/2sqrt( p1^(1-p1^)/n1 + ( p2^(1-p2^)/n2))

and

(p1^- p2^) z ∝/2sqrt( p1^(1-p1^)/n1 + ( p2^(1-p2^)/n2))

3)  The z value is 2.05

4) Calculations:

(p1^- p2^)- z ∝/2sqrt( p1^(1-p1^)/n1 + ( p2^(1-p2^)/n2))

Putting the values

= 0.2571-0.2709)(-2.05) sqrt ( 0.2571(1-0.2571)/175+ 0.2709(1-0.2709)/155)

=-0.1270 ( using calculator)

And

(p1^- p2^)z ∝/2sqrt( p1^(1-p1^)/n1 + ( p2^(1-p2^)/n2))

Putting the values

= 0.2571-0.2709)(2.05) sqrt ( 0.2571(1-0.2571)/175+ 0.2709(1-0.2709)/155)

=0.0994  ( using calculator)

and Putting ± 2.05 in the confidence interval formula we get limits (-0.1270, 0.0994)

An equation for the pictured graph and the equation for the pictured graph in factored form is: y = rs - r - s + 1.

Let's assume the equation for the graph in factored form is: y = a(x - r)(x - s), where 'a' is a constant and 'r' and 's' are the roots of the equation (x-intercepts of the graph). Since we are given that the graph passes through the points (0, -2) and (1, 0), we can use this information to find the values of 'r' and 's.'

Using the point (0, -2):

When x = 0, y = -2.

We can substitute these values into the equation:

-2 = a(0 - r)(0 - s)

Simplifying, we get: -2 = a(-r)(-s) or -2 = ars.

Using the point (1, 0):

When x = 1, y = 0.

Substituting these values into the equation:

0 = a(1 - r)(1 - s)

Simplifying, we get: 0 = a(1 - r)(1 - s).

Now, we have two equations:

-2 = ars (Equation 1)

0 = a(1 - r)(1 - s) (Equation 2)

From Equation 1, we can solve for 'a' in terms of r and s:

a = -2 / rs.

Now, substitute this value of 'a' into Equation 2:

0 = (-2 / rs)(1 - r)(1 - s).

To make further progress, we can divide both sides by -2:

0 = (1 / rs)(1 - r)(1 - s).

Next, to eliminate the fractions, multiply both sides by rs:

0 = (1 - r)(1 - s).

Finally, expand the right side of the equation:

0 = 1 - s - r + rs.

The equation for the pictured graph in factored form is:

y = rs - r - s + 1.

Tan again, is opposite/adjacent, so 12/9
