D) a rate in which the denominator is greater than the numerator

Answers

A unit rate is a rate with 1 in the denominator. If you have a rate, such as price per some number of items, and the quantity in the denominator is not 1, you can calculate unit rate or price per unit by completing the division operation: numerator divided by denominator.

Hey there! Welcome to Brainly! I"m happy to help!

The unit rate is how much there is of something per  one unit. The word per basically means divided or a fraction. So, if something was a, the unit rate would be a/1.

Therefore, the unit rate is C) a rate with one in the denominator.

In a randomly selected sample of 500 Phoenix residents, 445 supported mandatory sick leave for food handlers. Legislators want to be very confident that voters will support this issue before drafting a bill. What is the 99% confidence interval for the percentage of Phoenix residents who support mandatory sick leave for food handlers?

Answers

Answer:

The 99% confidence interval for the percentage of Phoenix residents who support mandatory sick leave for food handlers is between 85.40% and 92.60%.

Step-by-step explanation:

Confidence interval for the proportion:

In a sample with a number n of people surveyed with a probability of a success of [tex]\pi[/tex], and a confidence level of [tex]1-\alpha[/tex], we have the following confidence interval of proportions.

[tex]\pi \pm z\sqrt{\frac{\pi(1-\pi)}{n}}[/tex]

In which

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

For this problem, we have that:

[tex]n = 500, \pi = \frac{445}{500} = 0.89[/tex]

99% confidence level

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

The lower limit of this interval is:

[tex]\pi - z\sqrt{\frac{\pi(1-\pi)}{n}} = 0.89 - 2.575\sqrt{\frac{0.89*0.11}{500}} = 0.8540[/tex]

The upper limit of this interval is:

[tex]\pi + z\sqrt{\frac{\pi(1-\pi)}{n}} = 0.89  + 2.575\sqrt{\frac{0.89*0.11}{500}} = 0.9260[/tex]

For the percentage:

Multiply the proportion by 100.

0.8540*100 = 85.40%

0.9260*100 = 92.60%

The 99% confidence interval for the percentage of Phoenix residents who support mandatory sick leave for food handlers is between 85.40% and 92.60%.

Question:

The question is incomplete without the answer choice. Let's consider the following:

A line has a slope of -4/5. Which ordered pairs could be points on a line that is perpendicular to this line? select two options

a) -2,0 and 2,5

b) -4,5 and 4,-5

c) -3,4 and 2,0

d) 1,-1 and 6,-5

e) 2,-1 and 10,9

Step-by-step explanation:

The ordered pairs that could be points on a line that is perpendicular to this line would have same slope as that of the line.

Let's check out the slope of the options.

The line has slope = -4/5

Slope = m = (y subscript 2 -y subscript 1)/(x subscript 2 - x subscript 1)

The coordinates is in the form of (x,y)

Find attached the workings.

a) -2,0 and 2,5

m = 5/4

b) -4,5 and 4,-5

m = -5/4

c) -3,4 and 2,0

m = -4/5

d) 1,-1 and 6,-5

m = -4/5

e) 2,-1 and 10,9

m = 5/4

Two lines are perpendicular if (m subscript 1) × (m subscript 2) = -1

In other words, the slopes

of the two lines must be negative reciprocals of each other.

If 1st slope = -4/5

For the lines to be perpendicular, the slope of every other line = 5/4

Engineers must consider the breadths of male heads when designing helmets. The company researchers have determined that the population of potential clientele have head breadths that are Normally distributed with a mean of 6.5 inches and a standard deviation of 1.2 inches. According to the 68-95-99.7 rule, we expect 95% of head breadths to be:___________.

Answers

Answer:

"According to the 68-95-99.7 rule, we expect 95% [95.45%] of head breadths to be" between 4.1 inches and 8.9 inches.

Step-by-step explanation:

According to the 68-95-99.7 rule, approximately:

68% (more precisely, 68.27%) of the data from the normal distribution lie one standard deviation, [tex] \\ \sigma[/tex], above and below the population mean, [tex] \\ \mu[/tex].95% (more precisely, 95.45%) of the data lie two standard deviations, [tex] \\ 2\sigma[/tex], above and below the population mean, [tex] \\ \mu[/tex], and finally,99.7 (or more precisely, 99.73%) of the data lie three standard deviations, [tex] \\ 3\sigma[/tex], above and below the population mean, [tex] \\ \mu[/tex].

Then, if we have--from the question--that:

The random variable is head breadths.This variable follows a normal distribution.The population's mean for this distribution is [tex] \\ \mu = 6.5[/tex] inches.The population's standard deviation is [tex] \\ \sigma =1.2[/tex] inches.

We have to remember that two parameters characterize a normal distribution: the population's mean and the population's standard deviation. So, mathematically, the distribution we have from question is [tex] \\ N(6.5, 1.2)[/tex].

For 95% (95.45%) of the head breadths, we expect that they are two standard deviations below and above the population's mean.

For solving this, we need to use the cumulative standard normal distribution (in case we need to find probabilities) and also use standardized values or z-scores:

[tex] \\ z = \frac{x - \mu}{\sigma}[/tex] [1]

A z-score "tells us" the distance from the mean in standard deviations units. If the z-score is positive, it is above the mean. If it is negative, it is below the mean.

Since 95% (95.45%) of the head breadths are two standard deviations (above and below the mean), we have (using [1]):

[tex] \\ \pm2 = \frac{x - \mu}{\sigma}[/tex]

But we already know that [tex] \\ \mu=6.5[/tex] inches and [tex] \\ \sigma=1.2[/tex] inches.

Thus (without using units) for values above the population's mean:

[tex] \\ 2 = \frac{x - 6.5}{1.2}[/tex]

Solving the equation for x, we multiply by 1.2 at each side of [1] :

[tex] \\ 2 * 1.2 = \frac{x - 6.5}{1.2} * 1.2[/tex]

[tex] \\ 2 * 1.2 = (x - 6.5)\frac{1.2}{1.2}[/tex]

[tex] \\ 2 * 1.2 = (x - 6.5)\frac{1.2}{1.2}[/tex]

[tex] \\ 2 * 1.2 = (x - 6.5)*1[/tex]

[tex] \\ 2 * 1.2 = x - 6.5[/tex]

Adding 6.5 at each side of the previous equation:

[tex] \\ (2 * 1.2) + 6.5 = x - 6.5 + 6.5[/tex]

[tex] \\ (2 * 1.2) + 6.5 = x + 0[/tex]

[tex] \\ (2 * 1.2) + 6.5 = x[/tex]

Therefore, the raw value, x, in the distribution that is two standard deviations above the population's mean is:

[tex] \\ x = (2 * 1.2) + 6.5[/tex]

[tex] \\ x = 2.4 + 6.5[/tex]

[tex] \\ x = 8.9[/tex] inches.

For two standard deviations below the mean, we proceed in the same way:

[tex] \\ -2 = \frac{x - 6.5}{1.2}[/tex]

[tex] \\ -2*1.2 = x - 6.5[/tex]

[tex] \\ (-2*1.2) + 6.5 = x[/tex]

[tex] \\ x = (-2*1.2) + 6.5[/tex]

[tex] \\ x = -2.4 + 6.5[/tex]

[tex] \\ x = 4.1[/tex] inches

Therefore, "according to the 68-95-99.7 rule, we expect 95% [95.45%] of head breadths to be" between 4.1 inches and 8.9 inches.

The graph below shows these values, and the shaded area represents 95% of the data, or, to be more precise, 95.45% (0.954499).

Answers

Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:

Hello!

The objective is to  compare the VMT of mid western households and southwestern households. For this two independent random samples of households from both areas and their VMT were recorded:

Be

X₁: VMT of a mid western household

Midwest

16.2 , 14.6 , 11.2 , 24.4 , 9.4 12.9 , 18.6 , 16.6 , 20.3 ,15.1 , 17.3 , 10.8 , 16.6 , 20.9 , 18.3

n₁= 15

∑X₁= 243.20

∑X₁²= 4175.98

X[bar]₁= 16.21

S₁²= 16.64

S₁= 4.08

X₂: VMT of a southwestern household

22.2, 19.2 , 9.3 , 24.6 ,20.2 , 15.8, 18.0 , 12.2 , 20.1 , 16.0 , 17.5 , 18.2 , 22.8 , 11.5

n₂= 14

∑X₂= 247.60

∑X₂²= 4633.24

X[bar]₂= 17.69

S₂²= 19.56

S₂= 4.42

The parameters of study are the population means, if the claim is that the VMT of households is different in both areas, then you'd expect the population means to be different too.

The hypotheses are:

H₀: μ₁ = μ₂

H₁: μ₁ ≠ μ₂

α: 0.05

Assuming both populations are normal and since both population variances are equal the test to apply is an independent samples t test pooled variance:

[tex]t= \frac{(X[bar]_1-X[bar]2)-(Mu_1-Mu_2)}{Sa*\sqrt{\frac{1}{n_1} +\frac{1}{n_2} } } ~~t_{n_1+n_2-2}[/tex]

[tex]Sa^2= \frac{(n_1-1)S_1^2+(n_2-1)S_2^2}{n_1+n_2-2} = \frac{14*16.67+13*19.56}{15+14-2}= \frac{487.66}{27} = 18.06[/tex]

Sa= 4.249= 4.25

[tex]t_{H_0}= \frac{(16.21-17.69)-0}{4.25*\sqrt{\frac{1}{15} +\frac{1}{14} } }= -0.937= -0.94[/tex]

Critical value approach:

This test is two-tailed, this means that the rejection region is divided in two tails:

[tex]t_{n_1+n_2-2; \alpha /2}= t_{27; 0.025}= -2.052[/tex]

[tex]t_{n_1+n_2-2; 1-\alpha /2}= t_{27; 0.975}= 2.052[/tex]

The decision rule is:

If [tex]t_{H_0}[/tex] ≤ -2.052 or if [tex]t_{H_0}[/tex] ≥ 2.052, reject the null hypothesis.

If -2.052 < [tex]t_{H_0}[/tex] < 2.052, do not reject the null hypothesis.

The calculated value is within the "no rejection region" so the decision is to not reject the null hypothesis.

Using the p-value approach:

The p-value is the probability of obtaining a value as extreme as the calculated value of the statistic under the null hypothesis ([tex]t_{H_0}[/tex]). Just as the significance level, the p-value is two tailed, you can calculate it as:

P(t₂₇ ≤ -0.93) + P(t₂₇ ≥ 0.93)= P(t₂₇ ≤ -0.93) + (1 - P(t₂₇ < 0.93)= 0.1796 + ( 1 - 0.8204)= 0.1796*2= 0.3592

p-value= 0.3592

The p-value is always compared to the significance level, the decision rule for this approach is:

If the p-value ≤ α, reject the null hypothesis.

If the p-value > α, do not reject the null hypothesis.

The p-value is greater than α, so the decision is to not reject the null hypothesis.

At a 5% significance level, there is no significant evidence to reject the null hypothesis. You can conclude that the population means of the VMT for households of the Midwest  South ers households.

Step-by-step explanation:

A nutritionist wants to determine how much time nationally people spend eating and drinking. Suppose for a random sample of 1082 people age 15 or​ older, the mean amount of time spent eating or drinking per day is 1.53 hours with a standard deviation of 0.71 hour.

a. Determine and interpret a 95% confidence interval for the mean amount of time Americans age 15 or older spend eating and drinking each day
b. The nutritionist is 95% confident that the amount of time spent eating or drinking per day for any individual is between_________and_________hours.
c. There is a 95% probability that the mean amount of time spent eating or drinking per day is between and hours.
d. The nutritionist is 95% confident that the mean amount of time spent eating or drinking per day is between_______and_____________

Answers

Answer:

a) The 95% confidence interval for the mean amount of time Americans age 15 or older spend eating and drinking each day is (1.49, 1.57).

d) The nutritionist is 95% confident that the mean amount of time spent eating or drinking per day for any individual is between 1.49 and 1.57 hours.

(c and b can not be concluded from the confidence interval)

Step-by-step explanation:

We have to calculate a 95% confidence interval for the mean.

The population standard deviation is not known, so we have to estimate it from the sample standard deviation and use a t-students distribution to calculate the critical value.

The sample mean is M=1.53.

The sample size is N=1082.

When σ is not known, s divided by the square root of N is used as an estimate of σM:

[tex]s_M=\dfrac{s}{\sqrt{N}}=\dfrac{0.71}{\sqrt{1082}}=\dfrac{0.71}{32.89}=0.022[/tex]

The degrees of freedom for this sample size are:

[tex]df=n-1=1082-1=1081[/tex]

The t-value for a 95% confidence interval and 1081 degrees of freedom is t=1.962.

The margin of error (MOE) can be calculated as:

[tex]MOE=t\cdot s_M=1.962 \cdot 0.022=0.042[/tex]

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

[tex]LL=M-t \cdot s_M = 1.53-0.042=1.49\\\\UL=M+t \cdot s_M = 1.53+0.042=1.57[/tex][tex]LL=M-t \cdot s_M = 1.53-0.042=1.49\\\\UL=M+t \cdot s_M = 1.53+0.042=1.57[/tex]

The 95% confidence interval for the mean is (1.49, 1.57).

The amount of time, in minutes, that a woman must wait for a cab is uniformly distributed between zero and 12 minutes, inclusive. What is the probability that a person waits fewer than 11 minutes

Answers

Answer:

[tex] P(X\leq x) =\frac{x-a}{b-a}, a \leq x \leq b[/tex]

And using this formula we have this:

[tex] P(X<11) = \frac{11-0}{12-0}= 0.917[/tex]

Then we can conclude that the probability that that a person waits fewer than 11 minutes is approximately 0.917

Step-by-step explanation:

Let X the random variable of interest that a woman must wait for a cab"the amount of time in minutes " and we know that the distribution for this random variable is given by:

[tex] X \sim Unif (a=0, b =12)[/tex]

And we want to find the following probability:

[tex] P(X<11)[/tex]

And for this case we can use the cumulative distribution function given by:

[tex] P(X\leq x) =\frac{x-a}{b-a}, a \leq x \leq b[/tex]

And using this formula we have this:

[tex] P(X<11) = \frac{11-0}{12-0}= 0.917[/tex]

Then we can conclude that the probability that that a person waits fewer than 11 minutes is approximately 0.917

Factor 12q^2+34q-28. Include list of factors.

Answers

Answer:

2(2q+7)(3q-2)=0

Step-by-step explanation:

lets set up the equation equal to 0:

12q^2+34q-28=0

now, lets factor:

2(6q^2+17q-14)=0

2(2q+7)(3q-2)=0

now, lets find the solutions:

2q+7=0

2q=-7

q=-3.5

3q-2=0

a 680g patient comes in with diarrhea. the doctor orders anti-diarrhea medication at a dosage of 15 mcg/kg TID x 3 days. rhye medication concentration 50mcg/ml. What is the patients dose in MCG? What is the total volume of medication you will send home?

Answers

Answer:

dose in MCG = 10.2 mcg

Total volume to be sent home = 1.836 ml (1836μl)

Step-by-step explanation:

weight of patient = 680g

dosage in mcg of medication = 15mcg/kg

This means that

for every 1kg weight, 15mcg is given,

since 1kg = 1000g, we can also say that for every 1000g weigh, 15mcg is given.

1000g = 15mcg

1g = 15/1000 mcg = 0.015 mcg

∴ 680g = 0.015 × 680 = 10.2 mcg

Dosage in MCG = 10.2 mcg

Next, we are also told ever ml volume of the drug contains 50 mcg weight of the drug (50mcg/ml). This can also be written as:

50mcg = 1 ml

1 mcg = 1/50 ml = 0.02 ml

∴ 10.2 mcg = 10.2 × 0.02 = 0.204 ml

since the medication is to be taken TID (three times daily) for 3 days, the total number of times the drug is to be taken = 9 times.

therefore, the total volume required = 0.204 × 9 = 1.836 ml (1836 μl)

What equation can be used to calculate the measure of angle ? Describe, in words, the

process you would use to find

Answers

Answer:

44°

Step-by-step explanation:

A pair of angles formed from the intersection of two lines opposite to each other at the point of intersection (vertex) is called vertically opposite angles. These vertically opposite angles are congruent to each other (that means they are equal).

Since opposite angles are equal, the equation needed to calculate w is given as:

80° = 36° + w

w = 80° - 36°

w = 44°
