Ginkgo for Dementia The herb ginkgo biloba is commonly used as a treatment to prevent dementia. In a study of the effectiveness of

this treatment, 1545 elderly subjects were given ginkgo and 1524 elderly subjects were given a placebo. Among those in the ginkgo

treatment group, 246 later developed dementia, and among those in the placebo group, 277 later developed dementia. We want to

use a 0.01 significance level to test the claim that ginkgo is effective in preventing dementia. Test the claim using a hypothesis test.

Given test Statistic z = -1.66

Write Hypothesis and Critical Value, do you Support or reject the claim.

Answers

Answer 1

Answer:

i) 2.58

ii) We reject the claim

Step-by-step explanation:

The number of subjects in the ginkgo treatment group, n₁ = 1,545

The number of subjects in the placebo group, n₂ = 1,524

The number that developed dementia in the ginkgo group = 246

The number that developed dementia in the placebo group = 277

The proportion that developed dementia in the ginkgo group, [tex]\hat{p}_1[/tex] = 246/1,545 = 82/515

The proportion that developed dementia in the placebo group, [tex]\hat{p}_2[/tex] = 277/1,524

The null hypothesis is H₀; [tex]\hat{p}_1[/tex] = [tex]\hat{p}_2[/tex]

The alternative hypothesis is Hₐ; [tex]\hat{p}_1[/tex] ≠ [tex]\hat{p}_2[/tex]

The z-test statistic is given as follows;

[tex]Z=\dfrac{\hat{p}_1-\hat{p}_2}{\sqrt{\hat{p} \cdot (1-\hat{p}) \cdot \left (\dfrac{1}{n_{1}}+\dfrac{1}{n_{2}} \right )}}[/tex]

Therefore, we get;

[tex]Z=\dfrac{\dfrac{82}{515} -\dfrac{277}{1,524} }{\sqrt{\left (\dfrac{\dfrac{82}{515} \times \left(1 - \dfrac{82}{515} \right) }{1,545}+\dfrac{\dfrac{277}{1,524} \times \left (1 - \dfrac{277}{1,524} \right)}{1,524} \right )}} \approx -1.66[/tex]

From the the p-value at z ≈ -1.66 is p = 0.04846.

i) The z-Critical at 0.01 significant level is 2.58

ii) Given that the p-value, 0.04846, is larger than the significant level, 0.01, the p-value is not significant, and we fail to reject the null hypothesis

There is sufficient statistical evidence to suggest that there is no difference in the proportion of the subject on the ginkgo treatment and the proportion of the subject on the placebo treatment that have dementia, we therefore reject the claim that the herb ginkgo biloba is effective for the treatment of dementia.

The midpoint of a sègment is (6,-4) and one endpoint is (13,-2). Find the coordinates of the other endpoint.

Answers

let other one be (x,y)

We know midpoint formula

[tex]\boxed{\sf (x,y)=\left(\dfrac{x_1+x_2}{2},\dfrac{y_1+y_2}{2}\right)}[/tex]

[tex]\\ \sf\longmapsto (6,-4)=\left(\dfrac{13+x}{2},\dfrac{-2+y}{2}\right)[/tex]

[tex]\\ \sf\longmapsto \dfrac{13+x}{2}=6[/tex]

[tex]\\ \sf\longmapsto 13+x=12[/tex]

[tex]\\ \sf\longmapsto x=12-13[/tex]

[tex]\\ \sf\longmapsto x=-1[/tex]

And

[tex]\\ \sf\longmapsto \dfrac{-2+y}{2}=-4[/tex]

[tex]\\ \sf\longmapsto -2+y=-8[/tex]

[tex]\\ \sf\longmapsto y=-8+2[/tex]

[tex]\\ \sf\longmapsto y=-6[/tex]

Answer:

(- 1, - 6 )

Step-by-step explanation:

Given endpoints (x₁, y₁ ) and (x₂, y₂ ) then the midpoint is

( [tex]\frac{x_{1}+x_{2} }{2}[/tex] , [tex]\frac{y_{1}+y_{2} }{2}[/tex] ) ← midpoint formula

Use this formula on the endpoints and equate to the coordinates of the midpoint.

let the other endpoint = (x, y) , then

[tex]\frac{13+x}{2}[/tex] = 6 ( multiply both sides by 2 )

13 + x = 12 ( subtract 13 from both sides )

x = - 1

[tex]\frac{-2+y}{2}[/tex] = - 4 ( multiply both sides by 2 )

- 2 + y = - 8 ( add 2 to both sides )

y = - 6

The coordinates of the other endpoint are (- 1, - 6 )

An aircraft carrier can travel 450 km in the same time a container ship travels 300 km. If the aircraft carrier was travelling 5 km/h faster what was the speed of the container ship?

Answers

Answer:

10 Km/h

Step-by-step explanation:

Let the speed of the container ship be y

The speed of the aircraft = y + 5

Next, we shall determine the time taken by the aircraft to travel 450 Km. This can be obtained as follow:

Speed of aircraft (Sₐ) = y + 5

Distance travelled (dₐ) = 450 Km

Time for aircraft (tₐ) =?

Speed = distance / time

Sₐ = dₐ / tₐ

y + 5 = 450 / tₐ

Cross multiply

(y + 5) × tₐ = 450

Divide both side by (y + 5)

tₐ = 450 / (y + 5)

Finally, we shall determine the speed of the carrier. This can be obtained as follow:

Speed of container ship (S꜀) = y

Distance travelled (d꜀) = 300 Km

Time for container ship (t꜀) = Time for aircraft (tₐ)

Time for aircraft (tₐ) = 450 / (y + 5)

t꜀ = tₐ

t꜀ = 450 / (y + 5)

Speed = distance / time

S꜀ = d꜀ / t꜀

y = 300 ÷ 450 / (y + 5)

y = 300 × (y + 5) / 450

y = (300y + 1500) / 450

Cross multiply

450y = 300y + 1500

Collect like terms

450y – 300y = 1500

150y = 1500

Divide both side by 150

y = 1500 / 150

y = 10 Km/h

Thus, the speed of the container ship is 10 Km/h.
