Quit smoking: In a survey of 444 HIV-positive smokers, 202 reported that they had used a nicotine patch to try to quit smoking. Can you conclude that less than half of HIV-positive smokers have used a nicotine patch

Answers

Answer 1

Answer:

The p-value of the test is of 0.0287 < 0.05(standard significance level), which means that it can be concluded that less than half of HIV-positive smokers have used a nicotine patch.

Step-by-step explanation:

Test if less than half of HIV-positive smokers have used a nicotine patch:

At the null hypothesis, we test if the proportion is of at least half, that is:

[tex]H_0: p \geq 0.5[/tex]

At the alternative hypothesis, we test if the proportion is below 0.5, that is:

[tex]H_1: p < 0.5[/tex]

The test statistic is:

[tex]z = \frac{X - \mu}{\frac{\sigma}{\sqrt{n}}}[/tex]

In which X is the sample mean, [tex]\mu[/tex] is the value tested at the null hypothesis, [tex]\sigma[/tex] is the standard deviation and n is the size of the sample.

0.5 is tested at the null hypothesis:

This means that [tex]\mu = 0.5, \sigma = \sqrt{0.5*(1-0.5)} = 0.5[/tex]

In a survey of 444 HIV-positive smokers, 202 reported that they had used a nicotine patch to try to quit smoking.

This means that [tex]n = 444, X = \frac{202}{444} = 0.455[/tex]

Value of the test statistic:

[tex]z = \frac{X - \mu}{\frac{\sigma}{\sqrt{n}}}[/tex]

[tex]z = \frac{0.455 - 0.5}{\frac{0.5}{\sqrt{444}}}[/tex]

[tex]z = -1.9[/tex]

P-value of the test and decision:

The p-value of the test is the probability of finding a sample proportion below 0.455, which is the p-value of z = -1.9.

Looking at the z-table, z = -1.9 has a p-value of 0.0287.

The p-value is of 0.0287 < 0.05(standard significance level), which means that it can be concluded that less than half of HIV-positive smokers have used a nicotine patch.

Which statements are true about the relationship between the functions?
The vertex of function gis 4 units to the left of the vertex of function f.
The vertex of function gis 2 units below the vertex of function f.
Function gopens in the same direction as function f.
Function gopens in the opposite direction of function f.
The vertex of function gis 2 units above the vertex of function fi
vertex of function gis 4 units to the right of the vertex of function f.

Answers

Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:

f(x) = 4(x-3)² + 6

Up-opening parabola with vertex (3, 6)

g(x) = -2(x+1)² + 4

Down-opening parabola with vertex (-1,4)

A. True

B. True

C. False

D. True

E. False

F. False

The correct statements are:

"The vertex of function g is 4 units to the left of the vertex of function f.""The vertex of function g is 2 units below the vertex of function f.""Function gopens in the opposite direction of function f."Which statements are true about te functions?

Here we have the two quadratic functions:

f(x) = 4*(x - 3)^2 + 6g(x) = -2*(x + 1)^2 + 4

The x-value of the vertex is the value of x such that the first term becomes equal to zero, so for f(x) the vertex is at x = 3, and the y-value of the vertex is:

f(3) = 0 + 6 = 6

So the vertex is (3, 6)

For g(x) we can see that the vertex is at x = -1, and:

g(-1) = 0 + 4

So the vertex is at (-1, 4)

Also, you can see that for g(x) and f(x) the leading coefficients are of different sign. Meaning that f(x) opens upwards and g(x) opens downwards.

Now that we know the two vertices, we can see that the correct options are:

"The vertex of function g is 4 units to the left of the vertex of function f."

"The vertex of function gis 2 units below the vertex of function f."

"Function gopens in the opposite direction of function f."

What is the domain of f(x) = 5^x - 7?
O {x|x>-7)
O {XIX<-7}
O {x|x>0}
O {x | x is a real number}

Answers

Step-by-step explanation:

{ x| x all real numbers}

The domain of f(x) = 5x – 7 will be all real numbers, as the function is a straight line, with no discontinuities, thus undefined at no value of x.

The domain of the function f(x) = 5ˣ - 7 is {x | x is a real number}.

What is Function?

A function is a relation from a set A to a set B where the elements in set A only maps to one and only one image in set B. No elements in set A has more than one image in set B.

Given function is,

f(x) = 5ˣ - 7

The domain of the function is the set of all values of x such that the function is defined.

If we use any number for x, the function will be defined.

So the domain is the set of all real numbers.

So the correct option is last one {x | x is a real number}.

Hence the domain of the given function is {x | x is a real number}.

If the graph of an inverse passes the Vertical Line Test, you know that the inverse is a function.

What is Inverse Function?

Inverse functions are functions which can be reversed in to another function.

Then the function is said to be the inverse of the second function.

The test which is used to know whether an inverse is a function or not is Vertical line Test.

So, if the graph of an inverse passes the Vertical Line Test, you know that the inverse is a function.

Composition of a function and it's inverse is always x.

Let y = f(x) be a function. Then x = f⁻¹ (y)

(f⁻¹of)(x) = f⁻¹ (f(x)) = f⁻¹ (y) = x

The graph of an inverse is the reflection of the graph of the function over the line y = x.

The range values of the inverse function are the domain values of the original function.

Hence the blank terms are found.

A car insurance company has determined that6% of all drivers were involved in a car accident last year. If14drivers are randomly selected, what is the probability of getting at most 3 who were involved in a car accidentlast year

Answers

Answer:

[tex]P(x \le 3) = 0.9920[/tex]

Step-by-step explanation:

Given

[tex]p = 6\%[/tex] --- proportion of drivers that had accident

[tex]n = 14[/tex] -- selected drivers

Required

[tex]P(x \le 3)[/tex]

The question is an illustration of binomial probability, and it is calculated using:

[tex]P(x ) = ^nC_x * p^x * (1 - p)^{n-x}[/tex]

So, we have:

[tex]P(x \le 3) = P(x = 0) +P(x = 1) +P(x = 2) +P(x = 3)[/tex]

[tex]P(x=0 ) = ^{14}C_0 * (6\%)^0 * (1 - 6\%)^{14-0} = 0.42052319017[/tex]

[tex]P(x=1 ) = ^{14}C_1 * (6\%)^1 * (1 - 6\%)^{14-1} = 0.37578668057[/tex]

[tex]P(x=2 ) = ^{14}C_2 * (6\%)^2 * (1 - 6\%)^{14-2} = 0.15591149513[/tex]

[tex]P(x=3 ) = ^{14}C_3 * (6\%)^3 * (1 - 6\%)^{14-3} = 0.03980719024[/tex]

So, we have:

[tex]P(x \le 3) = 0.42052319017+0.37578668057+0.15591149513+0.03980719024[/tex]

[tex]P(x \le 3) = 0.99202855611[/tex]

[tex]P(x \le 3) = 0.9920[/tex] -- approximated

b) How many metres of road does it cover in 8 hours?​

Answer:

5 a) Total = 20.83 hrs = 20 hrs and 50 mins  (1250mins total)

5 b) Total = 96 meters. = 0.096km in 8 hrs.

Step-by-step explanation:

1km = 1000 meters

5 mins = 4 meters

1000/4 = 250 multiplier

250 x 5mins = 1250 minutes

1250/60 = 20hrs + 50 minutes

50 / 60 =  0.83 = 20.83hrs

b)  8 hrs = 8 x 60 = 480 minutes

480/5 = 24 multiplier of 4 meters

24 x 4 = 96 meters

What is the volume of the cone

Answers

Answer:

The volume of this cone would be approximately equal to 2787.64 [tex]yd.^2[/tex].

Step-by-step explanation:

The formula used to calculate the volume of a cone is [tex]\pi r^2*\frac{h}{3}[/tex] where [tex]r[/tex] represents the radius of the circle at the base of the cone, and [tex]h[/tex] represents the vertical height of the cone. In this case, [tex]r[/tex] equals the diameter of the base divided by two, which is [tex]\frac{22}{2}[/tex] or 11 yards; and [tex]h[/tex] is equivalent to 22 yards. Insert these values into the formula and you'll get that the volume of this cone is equal to [tex]11^2*\pi*\frac{22}{3} = 121\pi * \frac{22}{3}[/tex] ≈ 2787.64 [tex]yd.^2[/tex], so that is the correct answer.
