. A study was conducted to evaluate the relationship between artificial sweeteners and bladder cancer. 3,000 cases and 3,000 controls were enrolled in the study. Among the cases, 1293 had used artificial sweeteners in the past, while 1707 had never used artificial sweeteners. Of the controls, 855 had used sweeteners and 2145 had not. a. What is the exposure and what is the disease

Answers

Answer 1

Answer:

Exposed group has 2 times the odds of bladder cancer than not exposed group based on our odds ratio.

The disease is bladder cancer.

Explanation:

Calculate odds for exposed group =

1293 with bladder cancer had used artificial sweeteners in the past/

855 without bladder cancer had used sweeteners= 1.51

Calculate odds for not exposed group=

1707 with bladder cancer had never used artificial sweeteners/ 2145 without bladder cancer had never used artificial sweeteners=0.795

Odds ratio=odds for exposed group/odds for not exposed group

= 1.51/0.795

= 1.899

Therefore exposed group has two times the odds of bladder cancer than not exposed group.

What is constant of proportionality? I'm still having trouble understanding it. Can someone please give me a give problems and tell me how to find the COP (constant of proportionality) <3 thamks.

Answers

Answer:

See Explanation

Step-by-step explanation:

Given two variables (say x and y); the constant of proportionality is the ratio between these to variables.

Illustration; y is directly proportional to x

The above statement can be represented as:

[tex]y\ \alpha\ x[/tex]

When converted to an equation, you get

[tex]y\ =k x[/tex]

k, in the above equation, represents the constant of proportionality

Divide both sides by x to solve for k

[tex]k = \frac{y}{x}[/tex]

Take for instance: [tex]y = 3x[/tex]

Divide both sides by x

[tex]\frac{y}{x} = 3[/tex] --- 3 is the constant of proportionality

The Earth has a diameter of about 7,917.5 miles. What is the surface area of our planet? (Show your work, including the formula, along with your answer. Round your answer to the nearest tenth)

Answers

Answer:

196,836,571.6 miles²

Step-by-step explanation:

the earth is shaped like a sphere. the surface area of the earth can be determined by calculating the surface area of a sphere

surface area of a sphere = 4πr²

π= 3.14

r = 7,917.5 / 2 = 3958.75 miles

the diameter is the straight line that passes through the centre of a circle and touches the two edges of the circle.

A radius is half of the diameter

the tenth is the first number after the decimal place. To convert to the nearest tenth, look at the number after the tenth (the hundredth). If the number is greater or equal to 5, add 1 to the tenth figure. If this is not the case, add zero

4 x 3.14 x 3958.75² = 196,836,571.6 miles²

Step-by-step explanation:

a ball is shot out of a homemade air cannon. It flies through the air such that its height, as a function of time, is given by: h= -16t^2 + 64t + 10. where h is the height of the ball in feet and t is the time since it was fired in seconds. Max estimates that it takes 4 seconds for the ball to hit the ground and Cole estimates it takes 5 second. Algebraically determine who is closer and support your answer.

Answers

Answer:

Max

Step-by-step explanation:

the function given that h = -16t³+64t+10

the general function Equation:

h = at²+bt+c

=> t at the highest point is defined by t = -b/2a

= -64/2(-16) = -64/-32 = 2 second

the total times that the ball hits the ground

= 2× 2 seconds = 4 seconds.

so, Max is right

Answer:

Solution given:

Let h=0=when the ball hit the ground,the height=0.

h= -16t^2 + 64t + 10.

0=16t²-64t-10

8t²-32t-5=0

∆=[tex] \frac{32±\sqrt{32²+4*5*8}}{2*8}=\frac{8±\sqrt{74}}{4}[/tex]

taking positive

t1=[tex] \frac{8+\sqrt{74}}{4}=4.15seconds[/tex]

t2=[tex] \frac{8-\sqrt{74}}{4}(t2<O)(neglected)[/tex]

So

t=4.15seconds closer to 4seconds.So

Max is closer.

what is the length of the missing leg?

Answers

Answer:

[tex]a=\sqrt{609}\\\\a\approx 24.67793[/tex]

Step-by-step explanation:

To solve for the leg of the missing right triangle, one must use the Pythagorean theorem. The Pythagorean theorem states the following,

[tex]a^2+b^2=c^2[/tex]

Where (a) and (b) are the sides adjacent to or next to the right angle. (c) is the side opposite the right angle. Substitute in the given values and solve for the unknown,

[tex]a^2+b^2=c^2\\[/tex]

Substitute,

[tex]a^2+40^2=47^2\\[/tex]

Simplify,

[tex]a^2+1600=2209\\[/tex]

Inverse operations,

[tex]a^2=609[/tex]

[tex]a=\sqrt{609}\\\\a\approx 24.67793[/tex]

Answer:

b = 9 mm

Step-by-step explanation:

Using Pythagoras; identity in the right triangle

b² + 40² = 41²

b² + 1600 = 1681 ( subtract 1600 from both sides )

b² = 81 ( take the square root of both sides )

b = [tex]\sqrt{81}[/tex] = 9 mm

find the equation of a circle with a point at ( 10 , - 4 ) and a point at ( -2 , - 4 )​

Answers

Answer:

Solution given:

letA=(10,-4)

B=(-2,-4)

centre[C](h,k)=[tex]\frac{10-2}{2},\frac{-4-4}{2}=(+4,-4)[/tex]

radius=[tex]\sqrt{(4-10)²+(-4+4)²}=6[/tex]units

we have

Equation of a circle is;

(x-h)²+(y-k)²=r²

(x-4)²+(y+4)²=36

or.

x²-8x+16+y²+8y+16=36

x²-8x+8y+y²=36-32

x²-8x+8y+y²=4

The equation is (x-4)²+(y+4)²=36 or x²-8x+8y+y²=4.

Answer:

[tex] \rm\displaystyle (x - 4) ^{2} + {(y + 4)}^{2} = 36[/tex]

Step-by-step explanation:

the given points are the diameter points of circle because notice that in the both points y coordinate is the same therefore it's a horizontal diameter

since (10,-4),(-2,-4) are the diameter points of the circle the midpoint of the diameter will be the centre of the circle

remember midpoint formula,

[tex] \displaystyle M = \left( \frac{x _{1} + x_{2} }{2} , \frac{ y_{2} + y_{2}}{2} \right)[/tex]

let,

[tex] \displaystyle x _{1} = 10[/tex][tex] \displaystyle x _{2} = - 2[/tex][tex] \displaystyle y _{1} = - 4[/tex][tex] \displaystyle y _{2} = -4[/tex]

thus substitute:

[tex] \rm\displaystyle M = \left( \frac{10 + ( - 2)}{2} , \frac{ - 4 + ( - 4)}{2} \right)[/tex]

simplify addition:

[tex] \rm\displaystyle M = \left( \frac{8}{2} , \frac{ - 8}{2} \right)[/tex]

simplify division:

[tex] \rm\displaystyle M = \left( 4, - 4 \right)[/tex]

so the centre of the circle is (4,-4)

since it's a horizontal diameter the the redious will be the difference between the x coordinate of the Midpoint and the any x coordinate of the given two points but I'll use (-2,-4) therefore the redious is

[tex] \displaystyle r = 4 - ( - 2)[/tex]

simplify which yields:

[tex] \displaystyle\boxed{ r =6}[/tex]

recall the equation of circle

[tex] \displaystyle (x - h) ^{2} + {(y - k)}^{2} = {r}^{2} [/tex]

we acquire that,

h=4k=-4r=6

therefore substitute:

[tex] \rm\displaystyle (x - 4) ^{2} + {(y - ( - 4))}^{2} = {6}^{2} [/tex]

simplify:

[tex] \rm\displaystyle (x - 4) ^{2} + {(y + 4)}^{2} = 36[/tex]

and we are done!
