A study of malaria transmission in Africa tested whether drinking beer increased attractiveness to mosquitoes. Yes, this is a real story (Lefevre et al. 2010. PLOS One5:e9546), and for simplicity I have changed some details from what they actually did. The researchers opened a container of 50 mosquitoes and looked at what proportion of the 50 mosquitoes left the container and flew towards the volunteer person. They did this experiment with 30 persons and each person was tested twice, once before they drank anything and then (an hour later) after they had consumed a beer. Assuming that the proportions of mosquitoes are normally distributed and the variances are similar, what would be the best test to see if more mosquitoes are attracted to people after drinking a beer

Answers

Answer 1

Answer:

The best test to see if more mosquitoes are attracted to people after drinking beer is the z-test for the difference in proportion of two populations

Step-by-step explanation:

The study tested if drinking bear increases the attractiveness to mosquitoes

The number of people the taking part in the study, n = 30 people

The total number of mosquitoes in the study = 50 mosquitoes

The proportion of mosquitoes flying to each volunteer is measured before and one hour after consuming bear

The mean number of mosquito flying towards a volunteer can be found by summing the other proportions that fly towards the 30 volunteers and dividing by n₁ = 30, before and n₂ = 30 after the respondents had bear to obtain [tex]\hat{p}_{1}[/tex] and [tex]\hat{p}_{2}[/tex]

Given that the variances are equal and the sum of the sample for the two tests, n₁ + n₂ = 60 > 30, it is, best to use the the z-test for the difference in proportion 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]

Where the pooled mean, [tex]\hat p[/tex], is given as follows;

[tex]\hat p = \dfrac{n_1 \cdot \hat p_1 + n_2 \cdot \hat p_2}{n_1 + n_2}[/tex]

One angle of an isosceles triangle measures 76º. Which other angles could be in that
isosceles triangle? Choose all that apply.

Answers

Answer:

52 or 28

Step-by-step explanation:

An isosceles has 2 congruent angles.

There are 2 possibilities:

A) There are two 76-deg angles and one angle of a different measure.

76 + 76 + x = 180

x = 28

B) There are two congruent angles, and 76 is the non-congruent angle.

x + x + 76 = 180

2x = 104

x = 52

Answers

Answer:

Let me know if there is anything you don't get

∠3 = 102 because ∠1 and ∠3 are supplementary and 102 + 78 = 180

∠4 = 102 because ∠1 and ∠4 are consecutive interior angles

∠5 = 78 because ∠1 and ∠5 are corresponding angles

∠6 = 133 because ∠2 and ∠6 are supplementary angles

∠7 = 47 because ∠2 and ∠7 are vertical angles

∠8 = 47 because ∠2 and ∠8 are opposite interior angles

∠9 = 133 because ∠8 and ∠9 are supplementary, and we just saw ∠2=∠8

∠10 = 102 because ∠1 and ∠10 are supplementary

You could have used a whole bunch of different relations, but I wanted to focus on ∠1 and ∠2 since those were told to us

Step-by-step explanation:

For this question you need to know several parts of geometry.  Let me know if anything doesn't make sense.

First, parallel lines are two or more lines which are angles in such a way that no matter how long they are they will not cross.  In other words they are slanted at the same angle.  you can see this with lines a and b in this picture.

Second, a transversal is a line that crosses through two or more parallel lines.  A transversal creates a number of angles that have special properties.  I would like you to look specifically at line c as I describe these angles.  line c is a transversal to Ines a and b.  Also line d is also a transversal.

There are seven special angles to know.

The easiest is supplementary angles.  This you don't need parallel lines, but if any two lines ever cross this creates 4 angles.  you can actually look at where lines c and b intersect in your problem.  Angles 2. 6 and 7 are labeled but there is one more unlabeled one.  Now, 180 degrees is a straight line.  With angles you can see angles 6 and 7 add together to be a straight line.  Similarly 2 and 6 do as well.  These are two sets of supplementary angles.  

To list off the supplementary angles here 9 and 8 are supplementary, as are  2 and 6, 6 and 7, 1 and 3, 1 and 10, and finally 4 and 5.

From supplementary angles comes vertical angles.  Again, if you look at angles 2, 6 and 7 we already know ∠2 + ∠6 = 180 and ∠6 + ∠7 = 180.  Well lets say ∠6 = 133.  Well then, we could use algebra to see that both ∠2 AND ∠7 are 47 degrees.  This is the property of vertical angles.  if you have two lines intersecting, any two angles that have a third in between the are called vertical angles, and are equal.

some examples of vertical angles are ∠2 and ∠7as well as ∠3 and ∠10,  

Finally we go into parallel line specific angles.  If you have two or more parallel lines with a transversal, so in particular look at a and b as the parallel lines and c as the transversal.  The transversal creates some special angles.  in particular, the transversal crosses a and b at the same angle, so angles 8 and 7 have the same value.  These are known as corresponding angles, since they correspond tot he same position with a transversal crossing through parallel lines.  

the corresponding angles in the picture are ∠8 and ∠7, ∠3 and ∠4 and finally ∠1 and ∠5.  the last two using line d as a transversal.

After corresponding angles opposite interior angles I think are the next logically to look at.  Opposite means they are on two different parallel lines and on different sides of the transversal, while interior means they are between the parallel lines.  so if you look at the parallel lines a and b there are angles 8 and 2 that are interior angles.  Since 8 is against line a and 2 is against line b, and ∠8 is above transversal c while ∠2 is below it, they are opposite angles.  so 8 and 2 are opposite interior angles.  Now, if you look at ∠8 and ∠7 you know these are corresponding angles, then ∠7 and ∠2 are vertical angles.  This means opposite interior angles are equal.

A list of opposite interior angles are ∠8 and ∠2, and ∠10 and ∠4.

Alongside opposite interior, there are opposite exterior angles.  opposite means on different parallel Ines and on opposite sides of the transversal, while this time exterior means not between the parallel lines.  Now just like we figured with opposite interior angles

The only labeled pair of opposite exterior angles are ∠9 and ∠6.  Now just like we figured with opposite interior angles, let's start with ∠8 and ∠9, which are supplementary.  then ∠8 and ∠7 are corresponding angles so ∠9 and ∠7 are supplementary.  We can also see ∠7 and ∠6 are supplementary.  well, since ∠9 + ∠7 = 180 = ∠6 + ∠7 then ∠9 = 180 - ∠7 = ∠6 so ∠9 = ∠6.  This shows opposite exterior angles are  equal.

So we did two kinds of opposite angles, it might make sense there are non opposite angles.  And there are.  these are called consecutive angles.  There are consecutive exterior and consecutive interior angles.  An example of each are ∠1 and ∠4 for consecutive interior, consecutive because they are on the same side of the transversal, and interior because they are between the two parallel lines.  ∠3 and ∠5 are consecutive exterior angles.

You can use similar reasoning we have been so far to conclude all consecutive angles are supplementary

The thickness of a flange on an aircraft component is uniformly distributed between 0.95 and 1.05 millimeters. (a) Determine the proportion of flanges that exceeds 1.00 millimeters. Enter your answer in accordance to the item a) of the question statement (b) What thickness is exceeded by 90% of the flanges

Answers

Answer:

a) 0.5 = 50% of flanges exceed 1 millimeter.

b) A thickness of 0.96 millimeters is exceeded by 90% of the flanges

Step-by-step explanation:

A distribution is called uniform if each outcome has the same probability of happening.

The uniform distributon has two bounds, a and b, and the probability of finding a value higher than x is given by:

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

The thickness of a flange on an aircraft component is uniformly distributed between 0.95 and 1.05 millimeters.

This means that [tex]a = 0.95, b = 1.05[/tex]

(a) Determine the proportion of flanges that exceeds 1.00 millimeters.

[tex]P(X > 1) = \frac{1.05 - 1}{1.05 - 0.95} = \frac{0.05}{0.1} = 0.5[/tex]

0.5 = 50% of flanges exceed 1 millimeter.

(b) What thickness is exceeded by 90% of the flanges?

This is x for which:

[tex]P(X > x) = 0.9[/tex]

So

[tex]\frac{1.05 - x}{1.05 - 0.95} = 0.9[/tex]

[tex]1.05 - x = 0.9*0.1[/tex]

[tex]x = 1.05 - 0.9*0.1[/tex]

[tex]x = 0.96[/tex]

A thickness of 0.96 millimeters is exceeded by 90% of the flanges

Find the quartile 3. Round to the nearest tenth.

Answers

Answer:

The quartile 3 is 0.3

Step-by-step explanation:

Exponential distribution:

The exponential probability distribution, with mean m, is described by the following equation:

[tex]f(x) = \mu e^{-\mu x}[/tex]

In which [tex]\mu = \frac{1}{m}[/tex] is the decay parameter.

The probability that x is lower or equal to a is given by:

[tex]P(X \leq x) = \int\limits^a_0 {f(x)} \, dx[/tex]

Which has the following solution:

[tex]P(X \leq x) = 1 - e^{-\mu x}[/tex]

The probability of finding a value higher than x is:

[tex]P(X > x) = 1 - P(X \leq x) = 1 - (1 - e^{-\mu x}) = e^{-\mu x}[/tex]

X~Exp (0.2)

This means that [tex]m= 0.2, \mu = \frac{1}{0.2} = 5[/tex]

Find the quartile 3.

The 3rd quartile is the 75th percentile, for which [tex]P(X \leq x) = 0.75[/tex], or [tex]P(X > x) = 1 - 0.75 = 0.25[/tex]

Since

[tex]P(X > x) = e^{-\mu x}[/tex]

[tex]e^{-5x} = 0.25[/tex]

[tex]\ln{e^{-5x}} = \ln{0.25}[/tex]

[tex]-5x = \ln{0.25}[/tex]

[tex]x = -\frac{\ln{0.25}}{5}[/tex]

[tex]x = 0.277[/tex]

Rounding to the nearest tenth, the quartile 3 is 0.3.
